\ For the first time on record, the
eight-inch water main across the
Main streen bridge was frozen solid
Saturday night, and many sections
of the pipe were burst. Some vent
had been given to the water on the
west side to prevent freezing, but it
was not sufficient. Probably the To-
cation of the main had much to do
with its freezing. 1t is laid on top of
the temporary bridge, instead of be-
ing suspended beneath the bridge
and only few feet from the water,
as formerly. The west side was re-
minded of flood times when it awoke
Sunday morning to find its water
supply cut off, and many a house
holder, thinking the freeze was in his
own house, started "first-aid" before
calling the plumber and learning
that the water supply was cut off by
the freezing of the main. A tenn
porary supply was furnished by a
hose across the bridge, and the water
company got promptly at work re-
pairing the main, water being turned
on again Monday evening.
