Before shutting off the Orange wa
ter supply to complete the repair of
the break in the cement-lined pipe on

the repairs at this time. The water
department, reinforced by men from
the street depsrtment, are at work to
day cleaning the Scott brook reservoir,
which has not len ined heretofore
this season, and the supply from this,
when the cleaning is completed, ill
supplement the water supply from the
Bolster and Martin brook reservoirs, i n
which the city depends when the h'gh
pressure Orange reservoir is shut off.
It is expected that the repairs .vill be
completed Saturday afternoon and
Sunday, but residents of the city
should bear in mind that it may In
come necessary to shut off the high
pressure line and supply the city en
tirely from the BoUter reservoir with
out previous notice, and residents in
the higher parts of the city will do
well to keep an emergency supply of
water on hand.
