Must Avoid the Dams.

Skaters docked to the reservoirs OF the
Shenandoah Water & Gas Company in
droves yesterday to indulge in skating,
hutwere ordered away by Superintendents
+. J. Wasley and r. G. Reese, who spent
some time on guard for that purpose. The
company to-day issued public notices that
any person caught skating on the rpser-
voirs will be prosecuted. The object
in keeping the skaters away does not
arise from any selfish motive, but is
to preserve the purity of the water and ic e
supply. Through the recklessness Of the
skaters some parts Of the reservoirs have
been made filthy and it has been deemed
advisa lie to prohibit the'sport altogether
