presented its order of additional equip
ment to the Chillicothe Gas, Light and

water consumed in a quarter, charge
of 20 cents per 1,000 may be made;
for the next $4,000 gallons, II cents,
and for all water consumed in excess
of 10000 gallons, 15 cents per 1000.
The ordinance set down these rates
From 100 to 500 gallons, 20 cents per
1000; from 500 to 1000 gallons. II
cents per 1000, and all in excess OF
, 1,000 gallons, at 15 cents. The com
mission also ordered the company to
purchase an additional pump and
equipment, estimated to cost $4,000, to
be used in supplying water to the
residents of Carlisle Hill, a suburb,
heretofore inadequately supplied, it is
charged.
