CITY WATER WORKS.
! >
Asvc intimated some weeks since ,
extensive and costly improvements are
now being made in the City Water
Works plant , which our reporter took
the pains to look up as follows : He
found a large force 'of mechanics at
work on the new brick engine house ,
which is rapidly nearing completion.
The building is a large , substantial brick
structure , one-story (14 ( ft. high ) 34x26
feet in the main , with an addition 27 x
16 feet , specially built and adapted for
the two immense boilers , which produce
the motive power for the works. These
boilers are each of GO-horse power
capacity , 16 feet long and 54 inches in
diameter , and of the very best make.
The iron smoke stack is one of the very
largest of its kind being 70 feet high
and 3 feet in diameter. These im
provements will approximate $7,000 in
cost and should not lack appreciation
and encouragement on the part of our
people. It will be"seen that each year
more than the gross water tax receipts
are devoted to improving the efficiency
of the service. In the spring , the man
ager informs us , a 12-inch main will be
laid from the pump house up Main Ave
nue to the stand pipe , at another large
outlay. While a new and improved
duplex engine and a boiler iron stand
pipe of much greater capacity than the
present one , are under consideration.

Divine services will be held in the
Catholic church on Xmas day as fol
lows :
First mass ( low mass ) at 7 o'clock ,
