This wilf oonnwt mp with rbc ten Inch main running tip PeKalb street from the Southern passenger station, changing the syalenr entirely and giving an add ed pressure for both 'fire and domestic purposes. In making this change on Lyttleton street Mr. Atmt. ther superb iutendciit of the plant telle uy that it will be necessary to dig up the street twice in torder to take care of the. water consumers on this street nnd for fire protection while the changes are being made, f Other changes in the pystci* iuclud/6 a new main on Union street onVrotfnd to near the residence of n. E. Beard : an extension on the western end of Chestnut street to the Seaboard pas senger station where a hydrant will be placed: an extension on Campbell street ^ and a new main on Mill street and Laurens street giving better ser vice to the Court Inn and property owners In that vicinity. Changes will also bo made in the lower part of the city, doing away with many "dead ends", insuring the water eommmers a fresh supply at all times. As stated above the changes pro- j posed will cost aronnd $7,000 with out auy additional taxes as the money is on hand to pay for the work and material. This will be good news to many residents of the outlying sections who have been paying their share of the city taxes and have not had the proper water facilities. It is one of the best and most needed improve ments yet authorised by the present memboi's of council. Catholic Church Services.
