The Board o' Public Work's reports that

some prepress baa> been made lowards ac-

q' iring a eu'rahle waterBhed upon Ibe plan

suggested by M. j-tir Woodrcfl, Surgeon TJ. S.

A. , at last wf ek's' meet ing. This is in ac­

cord wilb a report made to the Board of

Health bj Mf-jor Wordit f l abcut a year ago.

F.ora his own experience ard i&vesT^alion

the Mojir U thorouighly competent to spftab

with ki. wledt-e on the ways and metng of obtaining and keeping pure water. Seme of ihe streams 1- H i s region have been pro­

nounced " i d e a " • 1 certain seasons of the

year. That Plat t burgh possessed an inheri­

tance that might in ' m e become as valuable

as gold, brings to our ro.ice. tbe fact that

cities like New Ytrk are c Duel led to g o

long distances for (heir dr: k'ng water, and

even now are contemplat ing tbe expenditure

of a quarter billion of dollars for the purpose

of obtaining pure water. Major Woodruff

cited the case of Philadelphia, wh;u could

have years ago bought gcod B » T . but it

is row unattainable1, and tbe city is , ending

uo'old millions lo filter water which is only

tbe diluted sewage of a dozen ci i ies further

up s t team. In the case of the army the

policy has been announced ibat ihe soldier

must bave water wbicb need not be boiled

for drinking at any :part of the year.

Referriug to the condit 0 38 in Plattaburgb

Mi jor Wooditf l s a y s : Tbe water rentsi paid io Ibis citv are

equivalent to the ihcome from two or three hundred thousand dollars, aud if the Post cannot get safe water in p'emy all the year re uod, ic will be economy for the army to spend that much to bay its own watershed.

After servirg in various p a n s of the coun­try for twenty years1, I rind that tbe health conditions here are tbe, boat I have ever seen. I r d e e d , Pialtsburgh Birracka, by tbe last report of the Surgeon-General, is shown 10 be near the head of the Hal as 10 bealtb. For this ieason 1 am intensely in teres ted as a military sanitarian, in having Ibis post en­larged tor the recuperation of soldiers from 'he"ironies, or in preparation for such ser­vice. I hel ieve tbene are more days in tbe \ ear here in which safe outdoor drills are possible than in 'many another place coi -sidered excellent for cavalry. Tne mbitary condiuocB are dependant upon water, and this post cannot be' enlarged UDless the city stands ready to supply plenty of water wbicb has no cenllamination at any season of tbe. year. This is possible, and can be done at once.

Mi j i r Woodruff dwelt upon the sewage t-ystem and the improved meihods of dis­pose g of refuse winch all ci i ies will in time be compelled to adopt. In c los icg he s s id :

The. present city problem is to keep tbe present water clean. On'y today the papers stated that water -contamination is unduly progressing in ihe Adirondacks, and that typhoid is appearing where il was unknown before. The danger to the residents and summer visitors IB> being published It H possible for a few dobars to so safeguard ibis local water supply thai yon can publish to tbe world that a' least P i t t s b u r g h has ideal water which cannot possibly be con­taminated, as it corne3 I.om uninhabited forest trout brooks.

It must be. remembered that one case of typhoid on the watershed may cause hun­dred,- in the city—»nd this vpry accident has happered time and again 10 communit ies wbi-h had perftct water lint tailed to re­move ihe peop'e living on the streams. It is a darger v. I ich military necessity will not tolerate for permainPDl ganisoDS, nod no civil community should tolerate. i \ Tbe plan to buy the watershed is therefore wise acd DCcecBfiry,

The personality of Fiona Macleod wa-

adroitly set out by note i in various publica­

tions. Her favorite books aud pastimes

were described and even her address given.

One writer went so f^r as to state l h i t b e

bad had a visit jrom William Sharp acd

F i t n n Macleod, and described the latter'*

personal charm and originality. To an

English man of letters who u q i i r e a i? l ie

knew anything about M a s Macleod, M .

Sharp frankly s lated that she was the *ife t f

a Highland laird and had been obliged to

separate from her husband, and in order not

to have f o i c « l on her a renewal of her

domestic relations she wa3 very anxious to

keep the 3ecret of her real name.

The decision to stop the g iv ing of telegraph

franks in this country haa porBibly found

backing in the story of an Ila'ian sub-prefect

and hia cow. Ic aeema that in Italy ollitials

bave a passion for using the wires at public

expense , and this particular one when his

best milker strayed away sent o n p a t c h e s r o t

only c-ver all Sicily but over the whole penin­

sula. The Prime Minister decided that this

WUB undue abuse of a bad custom and or­

dered tbe te legrams paid for. The cost was

aoout §100 and the cow is a:.U lost .

Dr. Benaon. late Archbishop of Canterbury,

made tbis en'ry in hi3 diary: '• To-duy I

married the Princess Maud lo Prince Cuaries

of Denmark. Tbe brightest of all the [ nn cesses and almost as young as wh°u I con­firmed her. He is a tall, gallant-looking sailor. I hope be. will make her happy." Aa K ng and Qieen or Norway the Priuce an J Princess seem to be justifying the Arch­bishop's praise and fulfilling his nope.

The next total eclipse of the sun will take place January 13, 1907, and wlti be vis ible in Lientral Asia .

This date w; 1 ;.e ihe !_•. favorable opportunity for obse iv iug an ecl ipse until April 17, 1912, which may be seen for one minnte in South America and a brief interval in Spain.
