City Engineer Entyre has completed a plot
or the territory lying cast or the city limits ,
which he prepared at the request or the
council , In order that n decision may be
I
arrived at as to the feasibility or a plan :
suggested for puttIng n stol to the occas-
lanaI Indian creek overflows that have
caused M much damage In the past. The
plan was frt suggested last summer , anti
the aldermen malIc n -our east oC the city
and looked over the land .
The suggestion has been mare that- three
dams be built , one about halt a mile east
oC the city limits and the other two a mile
further east , where the creek bronches. In
high water times these dams would cause
the water to bock ill ) over the adjacent ter-
riory and run out gradually enough so that
all danger from foods would he avoided
within the city lmits , The land which
would Ihus be overflowed Is worth but little
ltle
and the blurs on either side . forming a sort
ot basin would prevent the water from
doling any partcular Ilanlnge there , Acconl-
lug to the city Inglneer's plans , the three
dam8 would cost about $3.000 , but this
amount , It Is claimed , \onM be saved In u
single season or high "ater.
The luau oC bricking over the creek and
making It Into a storm sewer Is again being
talked or , antI the engineer has been calculating .
Intng the etpeimse lie thinks It could be
done for $25 a foot Ihus mal < ng the total
cost from lirst 1 street to Thirteenth street
about i5OOO. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ '
