The city authorities last Saturday
shut of the water supply Of the Is. e. NJ
At this point, and rescinded the contrac,
for furnishing them water for the en-
suing year. This move was made nee
! essary on account Of the shortage In
the supply of water, and as numerous
objections were made to the turning
in of the creek, especially so by parties
who depend solely on the city watel
for their supply Of drinking water, i
was thought advisable to cancel tn,
contract and depend solely OF tb'
two wells for the supply. It is thu
opinion of the "city dads" that by
careful observance of the ordinance
regulating the use of water the we'll
will furnish an ample supply Of goo'
water for all purposes.
