Owing to snow I was unable to ex- amine and test any part of the diatri-' bution system except the re hydrants.` _ The mains were of course subjected to the re pressure. which was main-_ tained for several hours, thepressure on the pumps being 130 p -unds, and during part of this time the pressure was increased to 160 pounds. Under these pressures` only two leaks mani- fested themselves to our knowledge, one on Buy eld street` and` one on Pene- tanguishene Rpad. These leaks are unimportant. The valves we did not examine at all. The legch or size of pipe laid I lied no means `of verifying. A V 9 Corner Sampson and Dunlap, frozen. Corner Penetang and Betczy, frozen. Corner.

The valves should also be examined then. . FIRE HYDRANTS. ' We examined all of `the 67. hydrants now erected. They are Ludlow pat- tern. made by Stevens dz Burn, of London, Ont. I We found 10 of those not in good working order. th following being the list: V ' `unit : These engines worked smoothly when pumping up to their full capa- cities" under a water pressure of 160 pounds against the plungers. A . The geam pipes: cyndem, &c., in the engine room are not yet laggedor covered. The capacity of each pumping engine is about 800 U.S. gallons per mimite, or a little over a million gallons per day. The smoke stack of sheet iron is a temporary substitute for a_. chimney, and will no doubt prove a source of trouble and expense to the owners. ` PUMPING MACHINERY. , The "pumping machinery consists ` of two compound, duplex, pumping en gines of the Worthington pattern, made ` by Northey 8; 00., of Toronto, with one independent condenser. They are simple. strong machines, well pro- ; portioned, and well adapted for the `duty required. I at The contract provides (sec. 12) that tlre valve in the bay inlet is not to be i opened exceptwhen deemed necessary by the Mayor. This being the case it would have inspired greater condence if this valve had been placed in sight on main oor, or at least to have placed the lock -and seal in sight. This can still be done by extending the valve stem above the oor and attaching -thereto an Indicator to show whether the valve is open or closed. ._- -J -vvvu aura D. McLeod and seconded by Rev. W.

"pump house,the ornamental hasbeen sadly neglected. . ` ' ' On the main pipe through which water passes to and fro from the tower is placed a gate or valve by which the ' tower can out off from the pumps. Around this gate, however, is a by- pass pipe with a check valve which allows water to pass from the tower into the town` when the pumps are not working. but does not allow water to ow into the tower. A gate is also placed on this by-pass pipe so that the tower can be completely cut "off from the system. By_,means of this arrange- ment in case of re the gate rirst men ` V tioned should be closed; the pumps can then increase the pressure from about 85 pounds at `pump house (the static pressure from tower when full) to over 150 pounds if ' necessary. This pressure can be obtained until the pump well is empty, the pumps c-in will then ow into the system. then be stopped and the water in tower ` meter` and 50 fot "high-, containing --4-uA-AAwcan when full dvet 180,000 gallons. ` PUMP HOUSE. .

While we.mourn with profound sorrow for our beloved friend, we recognize in our and bereavement the hand of our Heavenly Father, and humbly submit to His divine will, rmly relying on His power to alleviate the sufferings of those who are called upon to mourn the loss of friend, husband and father, therefore ' A ` The Reeve presented several appli- cations for the office of Assessor, and after mature deliberation`, accepted the application of Mr. James G.

SOURCE or SUPPLY. ' Your source of supply is now taken from one artesian well four inches in diameter and about 120 feet deep, =situ- p ated on Mary street, about 30 feet N. W. from the pump house. Another well 6 inches in diameter was first sunk about 50 feet `S. W. from the pump house and about 120 feet from the well from which the supply now comes, but, through an accident, it became blocked 8( on after the ow was struck. It is expected that the Company will remove the obstruction in this well. The ow from the well now owing supplies about 100 U. S. gallons per minute. By your contract with the Company they are required to furnish 30 gallons per day for each inhabitant, at which _1`ate the supply from the present well is suicient for a population of nearly -5000 people. year were read and con`!-i'r'Ined. -The Reeve addressed the Council and ex- pressed the hope that the Council _wonld aid in keeping down` expenses and lessening the burden of the rate- payers as they had so successfully done the past year. ~ ' The Council. of Essa met today in pursn ance of the -Municipal Institutions Act of Ontario, consisting of Richard Bell, Reeve; J.
