' llnhIiig ( food the uamng ( R'roughl In i'ifteeu Sear. 1,3 lroslutu The engineering department ltas begun the formidable task of repairing the interlors of rho large sewer mains and the work will he continued during the remalnder of lho winn ter. During the last flfleen years erosion and other Influences have left tunny seams and Irrugularitlos In the bottt.ms and sides of the sewers. Unkws they are given alten- ( Ion they proiulse to cause serlous stoppnges , and two gangs of men are now working underground - derground In making the repalrs. They carry miners' lamps and spehd eight Laura a day 1n the seven-foot mains fifteen feet r beneath the surface of the ground. The work ii necessarily done at this season tie- cause of the liability of sudden rains in the spring and summer ss'hich might catch the ttorkmen unaw'arrt and cut off their escape , One gang tins begun operations on Seventeenth - teenth street eouth of Mason and Is workIng - Ing toward the junction at Thirteenth and Jones streets , At this point the Jones street main carries the suwiigo directly east to the elver. Another gang has entered the mmn- liuls at Seventeenth and Jackson streets and w'lll work tosvnrd the same junction , where the gangs will combine in repairing the lingo main on Jncwon street , The men suffer qo Inconventenco from lack of oxygen as few gases exist in the mains. The method of making the repairs la in- terusting. It Is inprncllcnblo to interrupt the flow for any length or time and the workmen , clad In rubber clothes and fool- tvenr , build temporary dams of sacks of sand and tarpaulins. Tlds holds the sewage for several hours , as the water is usually only about twelve Inches hu depth. While the bottom for a length of several hundred feet is exposed mason. patch nil irregularities with i'ortlaud cement and concrete. If the accumulated selvage threatens to override the harrier a trough Is hnstfly put in place and the overflow is carried over the eection being repaired. City Engineer Itosewater says that Omaha's sewerage system ns a whole is uu excellent repair , the mains being solidly constructed of brick and cement. Gatigs of the engineering department have recently travereed a large portion of the mileage and the Loltotns are found to ho in satisfactory condition. The mains are from three to eight and one-half feet ! n diameter and most of them allow the passage of an upright - right human body.

The failure of the usunl elements of the three-cornered party to observe n common- ' ( ty of action is causing the nether corner , the sliver republican portion of the coall- tion , some embarrassment in the selection of its convention dale. Two of the corners have Iocatol conventions a week apart. The silver republican city committee held an informal meeting Salurtlay night and the matter of calling a city convention and prinarics ryas left to the chairman , James 1v , Carr , and secretary , 1 : . R , Janice. At that time time populist convenltion had been i eat for h'ebruary 3 , and the committee supposed - posed that time democrats would set their I contention for the same date. Upon learn- lag , however , that the latter had selected February 10 an the date of their convention , Chairman Carr did not feel like shouldering the responsibility of selecting the convention tion with which his party elmould tie up , and it i. probable that another meeting of the committee will be held 1Veluesdny even- ing. It is deemed probable also that the convention will be fixed for February 3 , so that If it is not thought advisable to act at that time , an adjournment may be mlcen until February 10.
