SALEM WATER SUPPLY
ADHEP WATER SUCTION BEING PLACED
IN THE CRIB
The Salem water Company Further Improves
Its New Crib For Supplying the
Consumers Of the City.

The Salem Water Company is pushing
the work Of improvement at its crib on
the Mimic gravel bar, and the work will
be completed in the near future.
The complications sought to be
overcome commenced on a Sat-
urday evening, after an excessively
hot day when an unusual volume Of wa
ter had been used throughout the city
for irrigating purposes and both pumps
we're worked to their full capacity. The
low stage Of the river had lowered the
pressure from the outside which forces
the water through the gravel into the
crib, and on the day in question the wa.
ter in the crib was lowered TO the point
where the suction created swirle and the
pipe began TO suck air. This air collect.
ed in the large water pipe which was so
lightened that it floated 10 the surface Of
the water.
As soon as these conditions developed
the whole force Of water company en-
ployes was put 10 work at remedial
measures. The pumping was checked
temporarily; the air was drawn out Of
the pipe which then sank TO its proper
bed and early Sunday forenoon the en-.
tire plant was again in good working
order.
The disturbance Of the pipe, however,
and the churning caused by the air, stir
red up all the sediment which had col
lected on the bottom Of the long line Of
pipe from the crib to the pump. This
was unavoidably pumped into the mains
Sunday morning and gave rise to all
soits notions among the consumers.
In order to understand how the COM
pany proposes to guard againgt such
trouble in future it must be stated that
the "a inch pipe enters the crib some ~
OF IA feet from the bottom OF the same.
An elbow turned downward seven feeet
in length will now be put on the end Of
the pipe inside the crib. This will have
exactly the same effect as raising the
level Of the river that much, as the low.
er the water is drawn in the crib, the
greater becomes the "head which forces
water in through the fltering gravel.
1t also gives a reserve supply Of body
Of water 20 90 feet and 7 feet deep,
above the present available reserve in
the crib. That however will cut little
figure in comparison with he increased
inflow which results from the lowering
Of the surface Of the water in the crib.
In the mean time, double row Of pill.
ing has been driven along the pipe from
the crib to the pumping station and it
has been securely fastened in place.
These are the improvements under
way and they will prevent any further
trouble and insure even better water in
the future.

During the dinner hour the younger
members OF the party furnished sweet
instrumental music, interpersed with
vocal music by natures sweetest song
sters as they fitted about the branches
OF the large trees. After cOnversing
upon "reminiscences Of the past, we were
finally reminded that the younger
guests were yet unseryed, and 80 dis
persed to other parts OF the yard and
house.

Three conviets.

Frank Baker, Burt Griffith and Walter
Ben were received at the penitentiary
Saturday from Lincoln county. The last
named will serve two years for larcency.
Baker and Griffith have five years each
for cattle stealing. 1t appear that for
several years past cattle stealing and
other depredations have been prevalent
in the vicinity Of Drift Creek. The
neighborhood has suffered much from
the operations of the gang, which was a
sort Of Jesse James variety. The events
in the Toledo conrt show that Baker and
Griffith were the guilty parties. Both
have formerly served out sentences in
the penitentiary.

Glrders for the opera House Ceiling weigh Six

The large girders to support the CELL
ing Of the new opera house have been
transferred to the site of the Odd Fell
lowe building by the Salem Truck q
Dray Co., and AT. Mofit, the house
mover has the job Of placing them in
position.
Each girder when put together will
be bS feet long and will weigh six TONS
The work Of raising the three to the
top Of the second story Of the building
and placing them across the 30 foot
opening Of the opera house is quite an
undertaking for the appliances at hand
here, and will probably take all of this
week.
These three prices Of iron work were
made at the Pittsburg works of Carne.
gle & Co., and were ordered through
the Albany Iron Works.
1t has probably cost more actual ex-
penditure of labor to take them from
the car on the depot switch and land
them at the corner Of High and Court
street, than it did to load them on the
cars in Pittsbug and bring them to Sa.
lem which illustrates the difference be-
tween doing things by main strength
and doing them by steam bower.
The contractors, Erixon & Van Patton
this morning obtained permission to
close High street for part Of the day on
Monday Tuesday and Wednesday while
the girders are being raised, to guard
against possible accident from break
ing tackle.
