WATER BOARDS GOOD WORK.

The New Connection at the Pumping
Station Completed Yesterday in
Just Thirteen Hours-The Shutting
OFF of the Water Caused Little In
convenience.
At midnight, Sunday morning, the
work Of putting In the new ~" connec-
tion at the water works pumping sta
ton, north of the city, was started by a
corps of workmen under the direction
Of Superintendent Charles Oliver. It
wns rushed through with all possible
speed. and In just thirteen hours was
completed. and at l p. m. the water
was again turned on. The water
works people had promised that the
connection would be completed in
twelve hours. and their prediction was
SO nearly fulfilled that they are being
generally commended by the public. In
some parts Of the city, especially on the
Island, there was supply OF water
even after the shutting of of the sup
ply at the reservoir. owing to the
drainage in the pipes.
Newspapers and other establishments
using water In large quantities, made
preparations for another water famine,
but happily these preparations were
needless.
