Then there is the Brighton district recently annexed, now being the Twcti-Jy -first ward, and the territory north of it, Inch is being subdivided into build-ii'g Ids and which will shortly have lo be annexed to the city; that furnishes a sewage-disposal problem by itself. Will it be th" part of wisdom to establish pimping stations all along the line of I- Culver road to pump the sewage of finit territory into the Kast Side trunk sewcv, or will it not be more expedient to let it flow down hill to a iiuriiicatioti plant on the shore of the bay the "ot tl tit lo run into the bay'; In view of the constant demand upon the Common Council for appropriations to make the necessary "tests" carry out the plan of the engineers employed by Culler and submitted by them to him. of which, however, Ihe Council has not approved, except impliedly by making appropriations to carry out plans, and in view of City Engineer Fisher's approval of those plans, who has informally recommended their adoption and urged haste iu doing so, isn't il about time for the Common Council to take up the con-sidernttnn of this sewage-disposal question on its on account, in order to ascertain whether better methods cf sewage disposal cannot be The Council don't lo gi far for information.

To Fdllur of Iirmecnt nd Chronldt: Sir: l'rom the report of the meeting of the City Federation of Woman's Clubs, published in paper, it would appear that injustice is being done the very class they profess to be anxious to assist. I hy no means decry "woman's but jt musi be confessed that if many of the women would spend more time iuvesiig.iiiug the moral conditions nf their bonus ami the places of business front which they derive their living there would be less need of their worrying about outside affairs. Personally I am not posted as to the morality and previous condition of iervitudc of the ladres deployed as ushers at the theater in (piostioii, but I fail to siv how it can be any more demoralizing to witness a play from the place of an usher than from box seat.

As to the class 0f plays presented under the present niatiageineut, they are on a par with which most of the ladies have no doubt seen in other theaters, and until they educate their sons and daughters to demand better plays, will be considered high class whether at Lyceum or National. True it is that If men were paid betier wages, bins and girls would not (,, work, yet how "many wives of business would willingly forego their luxura-s that larger wages might be paid tio-ir tnTshands' employees. Krotn the standpoint of one who put In t-n years at ollice 1 say the weakest girls, morally, are not always those who work for a living. Kven Ihe homes of our city are not all safe places of employment, and until positive assur- ncp can be given that the emanating from the home are all tlt they should be, it seems out of place to criticise those who are trying to euro au honest living.
