Gentlemen: The pumpage of water for Octo ber was 12,456,621 gallons, 2,378,768 less than the September pumpage, yet we had to keep the pump going until after midnight owing, to the shortage of our water supply and fear of fire in the dry season. We expect that from now on we will be able ta stop night pumping. The coal used during October was thirty-five (35) tons three (3) tons less than in September. The number of private services in use November first was five hundred and thirty-five (535), an increase of five during the month. We worked most of the time during the month of October on Forest avenue placing the necessary water connection preparatory to the improvement of Forest avenue next year.

It will take us about two weeks more to complete our work there. The receipts for Oct. were: Special: tapping, eje $274.63 Water rent 18.45 $293.08 The number of bills incurred during October was thirty (30) amounting to $1,037.51 Respectfully, J. P. Jasperson, Supt.
