~ dismantled. 1t had been out of
commission for eight years, ana had
been pronounced beyond repair.
Parts were scattered all over the
premises, and, in fact, a bargain had
been made to sell it for junk. The
council accepted my recommends
ton that it be repaired, and we put
the steam. suction and discharge
pipes back in place, gave it gen
eral overhauling, had new plungers
and sleeves made and enlarged it
to a pump of six 90 million gallons
capacity. This Gaskell pump cost
$24 100000 when new. We took it
out of the scrap heap. and at total
of 100000 made it apparently as
good as new, and it is pumping wa
ter today. Such a pump now would
cost a great deal more than at the
time it was purchased. The saw
ing to the city is apparent. We
have now three 81 pumps all in
good condition. and ready for SER
vice at all times.
New Building.
The building north of the pump
ing plant, which formerly con-
tanned the Jewel filter, we replaced
