The Exposition has advertised for
bids for a high pressure water sup
ply system and for a service water
supply system. These bids will be
open January 2Sth and the work is
tc be completed within six and nine
months.
Two complete pipe systems for sup
plying water are to be installed
throughout the Exposition grounds.
The high pressure system will be
solely for fire protection and the ser

domestic use. 1t will cover all parts
of the Exposition grounds so that 1t
can be used in case of fire in any of
the buildings. Arrangements will be
made with the city for connections
with the auxiliary water supply sys-
TEN so that the high pressure system
inside of the Exposition grounds VIII
be practically a part of the citys sys-

obtained at the hydrants within the
grounds as can be obtained from the
hydrants throughout the city.
The exposition hydrants are to be
a different type however from that
used by the city and are to be set in
the middle of the street in manholes.
They will be below the street surface
and access to them will be had by
raising the manhole covers. This
type of hydrant offers no obstruction
in the streets and walks when not in
use. There will also be connections
through which the fire boats can
pump into the system.
