Jasper County Democrat, Volume 9, Number 9, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 2 June 1906 — PUNCTURED A WATER MAIN. [ARTICLE]

PUNCTURED A WATER MAIN.

While drilling near the JWashington street bridge last Friday evening the drillers on the river rock contract punctured the city water main at that point and the west side of the city was without water until Saturday, when the damage was temporarily repaired. It wid be necessary to take up this main when the blasting is being done and it will be suspended underneath the bridge after the rock is removed. There is some talk, also of a new and better bridge here and the moving of the present Jbridge to the street just south of S. P. Thompson’s residence.
