of the town. The work was done at the instance of the owner of the works, Mrs,
Huntington, and forwarded to her in London where she was visiting, organizing a
company to reopen the old Banner Mine in
this district. Shortly after this work was
completed, the Trustees began action on the
proposition of a new water system, and Mrs.o
Huntington concluded to do nothing until
the question of the new works-was decided,
deeming it unwise as a business proposition
to expend a large sum of money, when’ her
property interests were so threatened,
Some citizens.do not favor new w orks if
Mrs, Huntington will improve the present
works and put them in good shape. ;
Mr. Englebright is one of the most competent civil engineers, and reports that if
his fecommendatious are adopted the system will be first class, Mrs, Huntington
agrees to follow these recommendations,
strictly, in the event. the city dues not put
in new works,
A
If the city does put in new
works, then of course, there will nut be any
necessity for the improvements.
The report and letter are “here given in
full,
Nrvapa Ciry, Cat,,
Mrs. E,-C,-Huntington,—
New, York City,
Derr Madam:—In accordance with your
request, I have examined the Nevada ‘City
Water Works -in reference to complaints
of lack of water supply in the’ city, and
to recommend such changes or additions
which may" be advisable to make the system more satisfactory. I have. therefore
made a partial survey of the system, ob.
taining the elevation in-various portions of
the city, and witha pressure gauge obtaining the actual pressure on the mains, Herewith tind my report. 4
July-6, 1895,
ov ery respectfully
W. F. Enavesricur,
NEVADA CITY WATER WORKS.
The water supply of this system is delivered from the South Yuba. Water Company into the upper reservoir, from. which
it is drawn into the lower regervoir. The
reservoirs are ample, in good condition, and
hold several days’ watersupply. The-lower
reservoir, to which the pipes connect, is at
an elevation of 231 feet above Main Street
the present system was put in.
This addition being made to the system
would have the effect to-greatly redace the
velocity of water in the pipes,and make
the friction head practically nothing. For
instance, tHe actual running pressure on
similar Jarge increase of head would also be
obtained on all parts of the system, and
furnish an adequate supply of water to the
higher portions of the town, which are now at
times poorly supplied, and provide for extensions of the system.
In addition to the general satisfaction
which an improved water. system in this }~
city will give; it will be noted that. there
has been considerable discussipn of the
proposition of the city putting in a water
system, This proposition is urged by the
residents of the higher portions of the city,
claiming a lack of adequate fire protection.
If the recommendations I _have made .are
carried out, the system will be first class,
and all portions he city: will: be well
supplied with wea if additional tire
hydrants be tached to the new mains
which Ihave recommended, the city will
have ample fire protection.
Herewith find estimates of cost.
“Very respectfully,
W. F.-ENGLeBRiIGHT.
Lonpon, Aug., 14th, 1895,
Dear Mr. Mora@an: I have your communication of the 25th ult., with statement
enclosed; also Mr. Englebright’s report of
the condition ‘of. the water works, with
maps. It is so handsomely prepared, and
so plain and’ comprehensive that any one
could understand it, '
what should be done for the improvement
of the water works and the estimates of the
cost, seem to me to be sound.
{ have always wished to give the town the
best system*that could be obtained under
existing circumstances or conditions, and
which could not be excelled without an expense of a good many thousand dollars.
The new Constitution -has made water
properties so precarious as to discourage
further investment to those already existing,
and to prohibit construction of new proper—
ties ; and on the other hand, that a Board
of Trustees could regulate the rates,
T have no doubt these improvements are
necessary, and I am willing to make them
if the works are to have any degree of permanency. There seems to be no security,
so far as the. town is concerned, regarding
me. :
At all events, I have. confidence in Mr.
Englebright’s and your judgments and opinton, and will act upon his report in its entirety, if the result of the eleetion shows me
that thepeople still be lieve. that I can give
them a good water service—as ¥ can do.
Yours truly,
E. C. Huntrneron.

George Rogers Shoo's at a Man at Washington Saturday Night.
At Washington Saturday evening, George
Rogers got into a quarrel with a man by the
name of Spangel. During the row Rogers
placed his hand on. Spangel’s shoulder, as if
to make up, and at the same time drew a
pistol and began shooting at Spangel. He
fired two shots, neither ot which took effect,
and Spange! managed to get away.
‘Constable Gleason attempted to arrest
Rogers, whereupon the latter struck the
ofticer with the butt of his pistol, knocking
out two of Gleason's teeth. Rogers then
went to his mother’s house, and left for the
woods yesterday: morning at 10 o'clock,
taking a ritle with him. a
Intelligence of the affair was sent to this
city and Sheriff Douglass left here for Washington about 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon,
with the intention of. trying to capture
Rogers. No further information has been
received,

Herewith find map showing the waterpipe system, the blue lines showing water
pipes. From the reservoir are two pipes:
First, a 6-inch pipe which furnishes water
to Piety Hill. On this pipe are connected
the two foundries. During the winter. season, the pipe furnishes ample water, and in
the summer, the pipe is sufficient for present
needs when the foundries are shut off,
Second, the main system pipe, which starl.

a 10-inch pipe, then toan 8-inch pipe through
East Broad ‘and Broad Streets. From
this pipe.at the head of Kast Broad Street
