AT the meeting of the City Coun-
Gil last Monday night, Mr.. Eugene
Guillott, a member of the Water
Works and Electric Light Board, ap.
peared and Informed that body of the
necessity of changing the present boil
ers for new ones. as those now in use
were dangerous, on account OF usage
and apt to give All acc dent at any
time. The Council appointed COM
mittee to look into the matter, con-
sisting of Messrs. Indest, VOORHEES,
and Delahoussaye Manager Dupuy
informs us that the present boilers
are not only dangerous, but not econo-
mical, requiring more fuel that the
modern up-to date boiler and as the
principal item Of expense is fuel, it
would be the part Of wisdom to change
to q boiler that will save 80 per cent.
of the present amount of fuel used &,
getting better service, without the
same danger. as now.
