When the water pipes are in, the water
famines, which have occurred several times
of late, ought to end. 1t is understood that
one pipe delivery station for the town will

in his line of business His work is laid out
with mathematical nicely, and progresses
easily and swiftly, without friction or jar.
Under his management the MILL office and
other buildings of the company will be con-
