ALBA ON VERGE
OF water famine
CITY COUNCIL ORDERS SUPPLY
CUT OFF EXCEPT TO LIGHT
co. AND LAUNDRY.

Abba, Dec. 16-Albia is on the verge
of a water famine so far as city wa
ter is concerned. After today, the city
council has ordered the supply to be
cut off from all places except the light
and power company and the steam
laundry, the two latter places being
considered as necessities. The water
that remains in the reservoir will be
held for fire protection. The Wabash
and M. & st. l.. railroads have been
using the water for some time and this
together with a four inch leak in the
pump reduced the supply very rapidly
The county board will put in a well
at the court house and thus solve the
problem of water there. 1t is hoped
that some water may be obtained
from the Burlington in return for a
similar courtesy on the part of the city
council some time ago but owing to
the absence of the superintendent, no
arrangement can be made at present
The situation may turn out better
than present conditions seem to war
rant and everyone is wishing that it
may do so. -
