For years the city has had its water flow stopped at different Intervals during the year by anchor Ice getting into the intake pipe. At several times during the past winter seasons the flow of water would be be so slow that no water would reach' above the second floor. This trouble, It Is expected, will be eliminated this year owing to re- pairs that hate Just been completed on the intake pipe. This spring it was found that the intake pipe had been broken during the winter by the heavy storms and that it had shifted a considerable distance to one side. Aa a result the water that the city was using was taken close to the shore, where the pipe was broken, Instead of beyond the half-mile in- take. driven at raicttJ^lntefvaTj skmg the pipe from* the :bja*inilo? point to forty-eight feet outside of where the break occurred. Said pipes are driven in, pairs on opposite sides of the pipe and are bolted together with link eye bolts of %-inch iron, which pulls pilea nrmly up againat each side of the pipe. ; -jj, > "The wooden part of the old crib and the wrought iron pipes which passed through the same have been removed and the lock whjch was placed around the crib to anchor it down haa been scattered so that there is fifteen feet of water above all rock, etc., in and around where said crib was standing.

At the time of the repairs to this sec- tion it was found that other repairs to the pipe further out in the lake were necessary. This work necessi- tated the reeaulking of several Joints, the driving of numerous piles to hold the intake pipe in place and the dis- mantling of the old half-mile crib. This crob was used for a number of years at the intake tor the half-mile pipe. With the extension of the In- take a distance of one mile into the lake it proved of no use. Tees ware then substituted instead of the crib. It was constructed in such a way that It arose to within ten feet of the surface of the water, making it dan- gerous for ships passing by drawing more than that amount of water. It was removed by Mr. Falcon. This work, together with the recaulking of the Joints and the driving of the piles, coat ah additional $3,000, mak- ing a total of $6,500 expended by the city on the intake pipe this sum- mer.
