Artesian Well Nearly Completed.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

All the iron piping, together with the brass pump-box, for the artesian well at Memorial Hall, has arrived and is now rapidly being placed in position. A wooden tripod has been erected over the well, by means of which the jointed sections of pipe are lowered. As soon as the electric pump, which is now under construction, is installed, the well will be ready for immediate use.
