Village viii Receive Refund Of
$1,000 on Water Account

Since July Of this year. To be exact.
July is, the village of Red Jacket has
been charged up with 100000 gal
! Ions of Lake Superior water i'm excess
OF the amount used. which. at a cost
Of l2ls cents per 900 gallons. totals
| approximately $1,000. This amount
has been paid the G. a. H.. Mining
company. which supplies the village
with its lake and pond water. and, ac-
cording 10 officials OF the mining com
Isny. constitutes excess charges, and
will be refunded. a fact which tax
payers of the village viii learn with
pleasure
The excess charges were caused ny
the inaccurate registering Of the &. a.
ii meter caused by the meter becom-
ing clogged with stones. resulting In
a reduced pressure In what is known
as the downstream" which enters the
, village mains.
The lefunding of the excess charges
10 the village is based on the amount
of water consumed in July and fol-
/ lowing months last year.
When seen by an Official of the c.
y IA. Mining company this afternoon.

water trouble was given To The News
ION the 18th of July last the village

There is no mechanism To this part
Of the meter Just a tube with re-

tube, five stones were found lodged In
ITS throat one stone measuring TWO
inches. Notwithstanding the fact that
the throat Of the tube is only lbs

still enough water was passing through
To furnish the village with water al
