Matter According to reports the difficulty with the water supply has been by no means overcome and there is still a most disagree able taste to the water Residents in Tat ham and Mittineague claim

get no satisfaction as he was given to understand that there was not anything wrong tvith the water The water commissioners held a meet ing in the town hall last evening and the follotving explanation was given out: The water for Tatham is pumped from the station into a large 60 by 60 iron stand pipe oh Rogers avenue where it is stored to equalize the pressure Several breaks were discovered in that pipe yesterday and it became necessary to shut off the pumps from there while they were being repaired the work was completed the pumps were put into operation again and the result was that the
