A stand pipe for street sprinkling was erected at the corner of Elm and Whittier streets.


Thirty-six meters were set and two discontinued during the year.


Total number of meters in use, 791.


The rear wall of the coal shed has been rebuilt with heavy stone work, the ground filled to a level with the door sills and the floor concreted. A covered run has been built be- tween the coal shed and boiler room.


On the inspection of No. 2 boiler in October, the Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Co., notified us that it would be better to replace this boiler with a new one rather than make the expensive repairs which would be re- quired to make the boiler reasonably safe at the pressure used.


Sewers


The only common sewer laid during 1905 was 48 feet on Whittier street.


Twenty-seven applications for house connections were re- ceived and twenty-eight connections laid during 1905.


Total number of applications to date, 465.


Total number of connections in service, 447.


Length of connections laid during 1905, 1727 feet.


Total length of connections in service, 28055.


Storm sewers were laid for the Street department on River and Morton streets, and a private sewer was laid for Smith & Dove Mfg. Co.


Foundations and arch for small bridge was also built by this department for the Park Commissioners.


The operation of the sewer system has been very satisfac- tory, one stoppage has occurred on a house connection.


Respectfully submitted,


JOHN E. SMITH.
