Hydrants Easily Rroken.

Declaring that the use of fire hy-
drants for filling water tanks and
flushing sewers is damaging the hy-
drants, superintendent F. B. Hayes OF
the water department last evening
asked the council to cooperate with
the water commission in devising
some means of preventing this He
suggested the installation of different
kinds Of hydrants for flushing purpos-
es. The fire hydrants, he said, are
very delicately constructed and easily
broken SO as to be unserviceable. He
told of a number or cases where hy-
drants had been broken recently and
referred to the Domestic Laundry fire
which gained a big headway because
of damage to a hydrant.
