Mug into the river and driving away the nsh.
Tn former DAYS many poor man, with very
little cost of time or labor. got his breakiast OF
dinner from the river with his hook and Ilne.
That tbcso impurities seriously dlminlsh Tue
rive, Of fiji is upuucstunabie. The practlce
of letting lhem run uto the river from the gas
works of the three cities has been al!o"'u
ever since the works were established, merely
because there was surplus which tneir mapa
gers would hot take the trouble TO dispose VI
Otherwise 4 we'll, not very deep or costly,
would prove an ample remedy tor the evil.
The British government, by heavy penaitles'
prevent these or any other foul matters from
running into streams frequeuted by food hsh
The practivc complained of is also wastetul, as
the tar can be prohtaby burned under the re-
torts, thus saving coke, which can always be
sold, and of which the supply is not adequate
to the demand BY putting an exhauster %
the hydraulic main large quantity OF gas
now uuavoidably wasted can be saved. Steam
can thou be taken from the same oolle with,
out additional expense, except Tor pipe, ana
used to get the tar into the furnace, where 1t
cau be burned in lieu Of the coke now consum-
ed to generate the gas. The anmoniacal wa
ter can be led into wide receptacle, where
large surface can be exposed to the action OF
the suu aud air. The water will then eVapo-
rate, leaving comparatively small reslduum
to be disposed Of Captains OF vessels navlgat-
ing the river Potomac have met with the gas
tar on the surface fifty miles down. 1t is earn
cstly hoped that speedy and effective action
may be had here and that 1t will be followed
by like action il Washington aud Georgetown,
to prevent this nuisance. The subject is worthy
the serious consideration of the Committee on

LONDON, March IS, 1890 p. m.-The Uni
vcrsity boat race was won by the Cambridge

LONDON, March IS, O'Clock p. m.-The
annual race between the Oxford and Cambridge
boat crews, came off this morning over the usu
al course on the Thames from PutDey to Mork
lake, distance OF four aud two furloDgs, and,
as has been the case IN the past four years,
resulted in u victory Tor the Cambridge boat,
which came in two lengths and ahalf ahead of
its rival. The weather was beautiful and
more propitious day for the contest could not
have been selected The crowd that assembled
to witness the race was unprecedented. Va
the surrey side OF the river from Putuey to
MortIake, there was one compact mass OF peo-
ple $50 feet wide aud at the latter place car
rriages five feet deep stood in long rows. The
Princess of Wales and the Duchess, OF Edln-
burgh, who were expected to be among the
SPECTATORS, we're abseut Upon the toss for
choice of positions, Cambridge won and selected
the Midd!esex on northern side. The Oxford
crew rowed into the stream at one minute past
II o'clock; five minutes later the Cambridge
boat appeared and was received with immense
cheering by it's friends. Betting at this time
was five to two in favor Of Cambridge. All things
being in readiness at fourteen minutes past III
o'clock, the sigma! to start was gwen and the
boats rot away instantaneously, Cam bridge
had the advantage from the first, rowing at
the rate of 81 strokes per minute, but both
crews pulled steadily. After an exciting
contest Cambridge reached the ship at Mort
lake in 81 minutes and 50 seconds past |
O clock, winning the race in % minutes and 80
seconds. The water, though not so smooth as
would have been desired, was fairly Calm.
