Notice to Water Consumers.

During the progress of installing the
new pipeline it becomes necessary to
shut off certain lines of the water sup
ply for the purpose of connecting a
valve, and may result in some inconve-
nience. This, however, cannot be
avoided, but instructions have been
given to push the work as speedily as
is possible. Therefore, If the public
should find the water supply cut off it
will be for only a short time, and viii
not be due to shortage of water in
the supply tank.
