BOARD OF TRADE MEETS.
Tuscaloosa Takes Steps to Improve
 Water Supply.

Tuscaloosa, January 27-tSpecial)-A very interesting meeting of the board of trade was held yesterday evening in the presidents office, the object of this meet ing being to discuss the water question. A petition was prepared by the board to be handed to the board of mayor and al- dermen, requesting them to consider the sinking of an artesion well on the city s property just below the Tuscaloosa Light and Ice company's plant and that the water be pumped from that point to sev- eral of the leading streets in the city, where it will be convenient for it to be procured for drinking and domestic pur- poses.
 The board also recommended that $25OO be expended for completion of this work. There is also some talk of sinking from four to six wells at the pumping station and that instead of pumping water from the river only artesian well water will be used. These movements were made neces sary by the recent unpleasant taste and odor in the water now used from the river.
