The Water-Works.

The Board of Aldermen held called meet
ing on Friday evening last for the purpose
Of considering the question of the suspen-
sion of work upon the new reservoir. We
regret to say that the Board failed to provide
for the continuance Of the work for the
want Of two.thrds vote, and SO the order
suspendng the work FOR the want of funds
to carry it on is in force.
We say we regret this because we are sat.
isfed that the stoPpage Of the work is &C.
rious public injury, and subjects to hansi-
ship considerable number .ot laborers. We
are surprised that the members Of the Board
have not separated the question Of stopping
the work from that of investigating the man.
ner of the disbursement Of meaey upon the
work. Properly they are separate and dis
tinct questions. Fortunately haey are so
for it is u great public injury to stop such an
enterprise after spending, as gentlemen say,
1915, upon it.
The only ground Tor stopping the work
would be that it was SO badly located or so
badly done that it would have to be changed
to some other locality or RACED to the gfeund
TO lie done over again. We suppose chat
there can be no serious opinion entertained
by any considerable number Of the people Of
Richmond, that the location is so bad that It
must necessarily be changed, or that the work
Is intolerably done. The location was chosen
by the proper officers aud committee of the
Councils after the maturest Investigation.
1t meets the requirements, and the most i'm
portant of all, that Of elevation, for a reser.
voir for water to supply the city. Its site is
the highest place near the city, and the earth
there is the very best. So completely does
1t answer the conditions necessary for such
reservoir that we thought the whole commu.
nifty acquiesced In the wisdom of its selec.
ton. With regard to the character of the
work done we have not heard a single OBJ.
lection.
therefore we consider that there can be
no Sood reason to stop the work on either of
these grounds. We can imagine no other
gentlemen have said that there would be
unexpected difficulty in forcing water up to
the hlgh elevation Of the new reservoir
Gan that be good reason for ABANDONING
The work, even if it be true? Certainly NOT,
This city has suffered much from the want
OF water upon Its higher levels. A urge
portion OF the community get but little wa.
Ter during the summer.

New Mode of Ventilation.

The London Times recently gave q
valuable account of o mode OF ventila-
ton adopted by Mr.. Tobin, a retired
merchant Of Leeds, and which rests on
the principle that a narrow stream OF
air can be sent up through lighter air,
like the Jet of q fountain through the
ordinary atmosphere, by atmospheric
pressure from outside, and that when
it reaches the ceiling it will be reflected
off in all directions, Just as the water
falls back in n number OF infinltesimal
rills, and go melt away very gradually
into the less pure air of the room, be-
fore reaching the persons who need 1t.
The modus operandi is to introduce
vertical tubes, communicating with the
outer air, in parts OF a large room or
public building where people are not
likely to sit or stand, tubes rising, say
four or five feet, above the floor. Di-
rectly the air in the room begins to be
rarilied, the pressure of the air outside
sends streams of air up these tubes,
which continue to rise in narrow streams
just like Jets of water, ard without
dispensing till they reach the ceiling,
where they are reflected back in spray,
as it were, of pure air, spray which
mixes very gradually indeed, and so al
to avoid all draft, with the rarified all
of the room, and gradually expels al
the bad air by way Of the chimney.
The system seems to have worked
almost tremendously in the Leeds Bo

A WORD IN SEASON .-Health is a
blessing, which comparatively few en-
Joy in all its fullness. Those endowed
by nature with robust frames and Wig
orous constitutions should be careful
not to trifie with them.
When we enter the seasons of period
ic fevers, the increased heat of the sun
develops a miasma which pervades the
air. The evil is inextinguishaSle; our
duty to guard against it is imperative !
Fortunately for those whose lot is cast
in low marshy districts or new clear
ings, nature provides a cure and pre-
ventive. DR.. Walkers California Vine
gar Bitters are endowed with rare pro.
phytactic or diSedSe.preUenting powers,
and as an ounce of prevention is
worth n pound of cure" should be
taken in the full vigor of health, so as
to fortify the system against the assault
of summer disease, and thus secure by
their hfe-giving, strengthening, restor'
%atives, and antiseptic virtues, a defense
against atmospheric poison.
