From the fire department, one cull

In adiiition to the regular work in
tin street department it has heen ne
cenpary to repair and rebuild a num
ber of crosswalks daniaied by heav
trucks hauling for the state highways
The HtreOt supvriiitendenl is endeav
oring to protect the crosswalks a ;
much an poH.siblo by placing jnvel on
same and in other ways. We havo
asked for bids nn construct ion of con
crete crosswalks as surest ed by the
Commission last week. The bids lire
submitted herewith.
A number of leaks have been re
paired in the water mains and two
now taps installed. A clog in the
newer on Jefferson avenue, bctweeh
Kir and Hemlock streets was also op
ened up. A trip was made to t he
intake to get measurements on the
suggested new dam some ln(l fre'.
above the present intake dam.'" It ft'ffr'
found that the elevation of this point
above the present intake is 20.X feet.
A dam enuld be constructed at thi;.
point with a width of about :tr feet
but there is some (piestion whether
the expense would be justified as th
increased flow would not exceed 100,
000 gallons per 21 hours. The rebuild
ing of the darn at the present intake
will be a considerable undertaking, ac
cording1 to the engineer and contractor
who examined same. There does not
appear to be any nnl'.t rock formation
at this point to which to tie the darr
without going entirely across the can
yon, which is some 120 fuet. An effort
is being made to further repair the
present dnm so as to hold all the wale:
that is flowing in the stream.
A phone message from Mr. Kelsey
stated that he is mailing plans for a
new dam, and will be here again the
latter part of next week. Kespect
fully submitted,
JOHN COIXIKU, Manager.
