REPMTHE OWE
Sends Over 1,500 Sacks to Road
Commission to Repair the
Rreak.
Lieut. Edgertou and the men of
the road commission were ' at
their wits end last night to se
cure sacks with which to stop the
break in the dike and after scour
ing the town for hours could on
ly secure a few hundred. Colon
el O’Neil, of Fori Liscum, how
ever, had had all the sacks at the
post saved and stored in the
event of an emergency and when
informed of the need for sacks
for the dike, he sent over 1,500
to Lieut. Edgertou and the night
'■crew succeeded in repairing the
break.
The sudden change in the dir
'ection of the stream early yes
terday morning caused much ap
prehension to the officers of the
commission and to superintend
ent Giddings and a large crew
were working all of yesterday
and all through ttie night repair
ing tile break and strengthening
( lie dike.
No more trouble is feared as
the men have tilled the sacks, re
paired the break and strengthen
ed the dike and are hack at the
work of making I lie brush mal
’tresses to face the new govern
ment dike.
