The Hot Season.

Lock me in an ice-chest!
Bury it in the snow!
Place it in the Arctic lands,
Where moss and liehens grow.
Encase me in an iceberg!
Away from light of day.
Float it in the Arctic seas,
Where frigid zephyrs play.
Hoist me up the cold north pole.
Far, far above old Sol,
Where he no more can greet me,
Nor his beams around me fall.
OF 81 would not live always
And life, street life is played"
When there is nothing cool but ice,
And its one hundred in the shade.

CAPITOL HILPS W.IrER SUPPLY.
General Mcigs' Plan Before the Senate Sub
COMMITTEES.

General Mcigs' Plan Before the Senate Sub
Committee.
Messrs. Dorsey, Rollins, Barnum and Mer-
rimon, composing the subcommittee of the Sem
ate District Committee 10 consider the subject
of water supply for East Washington and Cap
itol Hill, met yesterday morning. The Dis
trict Commissioners, General Meigs Assistant
Secretary French, DIR. McKm, DIR. Cox, Gen
Cral Duncan S. Walker and other residents of
Capitol Hill were present. General Meigs ex-
planned his plan for constructing a tunnel
from the distributing reservoir in Georgetown
to point lA5 feet above the tide level on the
high ground at tho Boundary, near the tcrmi-
nus of Fourteenth street, aud thence to carry
pipe down New Jersey avenue to Capitol
Hill.
He estimated that the cost Of building the
tunnel, with a small reservoir at its terminus,
and the connecting main, would not exceed
100000. He said that this plan, if adopted,
would furnish the city with 6O,O00,000 gallons
per diem,
Commissioner Twining said the plan oil
General Aieigs was the only one which would
give tho city permanent supply Of water, but
in his opinion, without having surveyed the
proposed route the work would cost from
100000 to 81 100000. 1t would require not
less than two months TO make an accurate esti.
mate of the cost He thought it would be un'
wise to lay another thirty.six inch main direct
TO Capitol Hill.
The Commissioners, Major Twining said, did
not propose to buy 1880 metres and force
them upon the people of the District, but cal
culated that if metres were placed in the l 800
houses on Capitol Hill, 100000 gallons would
be saved daily.
General Meigs adhered to his opinion that
the total cost of the work would not exceed
S400 900, and referred to the fact that the cos
of the Washington aqueduct, twelve miles
long with fourteen tunnels, was only 81, 165,
600. Mr.. French said that he had reason t
believe that at the present session Of Congress
they could carry through reasonable meas
uro for the relief of Capitol Hill, but at the
next Congress, with new members aud new
committees it was doubtful whether they
would succeed The committee took no action
