The Basin.

Col. McIntire, Chief Engineer of the
Water Department, is ready to fill the
south compartment of the Cool Spring
Reservoir as soon as the slight repairs are
finished, which will probably be by this
evening. When it is filed again the north
compartment will be emptied and thor
oughly cleaned. The fund of the Water
Commissioners is nearly exhausted, and
when the pump house engine and the
railing around the reservoir is paid for,
there will be only about $4,000 left. Ii
is probable that an additional sum of
$4,000 or $4,000 will be asked for at
the next session of the Legislature, as
this amount could be profitably expended
on the grounds around the basin. Un-
less the lot on the east side is used for
reservoir purposes it will revert to the
original owners, and therefore it is pro-
posed to construct a small basin there,
for the purpose Of retaining and utilizing
the water flowing from the Rodney
street spring. Also, to fix up the grounds,
lay out some walks, plant shade trees,
and, in fact, convert the lot into plea
SAINT little park.
