RE -DRILLING WELL.
Mr. Vildiliam Hopper has been en-
gaged by the Utilities Comziissionto
try and open up the casing of the
last well drilled for the water works.
It appears that when the men at-
tempted to put in the pump they
found the casing had buckled and pre-
vented the proper sired pump from
passing. It is not known at,the time
of witing what the condition is or
whether a new well will have to be
drilled, It is hoped, however, that by
the use of the drill, a proper opening
will be available,
