At the present there is only the one} pumping unit which is a 200- horse- | power machine. It has been in op- eration since April this year almost constantly with the exception of two shut-downs of brief duration. Dur- ing those shut-downs, the two elec- trical pumps attempted to supply the city with water and failed miserably. | It is to remedy this condition that the council voted for the additional nump which will be a duplicate of the present one, costing practically the) same amount and having a 200-horse- power capacity. » The: engine -for this unit will be here in 30 days or less time, accord ing to a representative of the com- pany from which the pump is being purchased, The water committee was instruct- ed last night to"test the ground near the present connecting tunnel which runs into the well near the North Platte river preliminary to the in- stallation of a new tunnel into the well, This tunne] probably will be 300 feet in length and will give a larger water supply to the well. City water officials today were em- phatic in urging that al] residents of » city follow out all irrigatéon and restrictions to the letter.
