Chemical Examination of Drinking
Wafer

TRequesl for specimens of suspected water.
Aoarelul study of the the chief methods in
use for the chemical examination OF potable
water, so far "a organic matter 10 concerned,
has been undertaken by ordsrof the National
board Of health. 1t is particularly requested
of the correspondent OF tho board Of medi
cal men throughout tho country, and of
others interested in sanitary matters, that
any well-markad case OF disease which may
seem on medical grounds fairy attributable
10 organic Impurities in drinking water be
promptly reported to DR.. J. w. Male,
University of Virginia, post.otfce, AlbsmArle
county Virginia; with few lines stating
clearly the medical nature of the
case, and the character of tho
evidence on which tho water ia question is
suspected ofhaviae actually caused disease in
persons who have used il.
IL is further desired that n sample of each
such water be forwarded for examination,
but not until notice has baea received from
DR. Mallet that tho analysts are ready to pro.
coed with il, since it is important
that no useless delay should &C.
cur between the shipping of the sample
and US investigation in the laboratory. In
notifying any one who may be able TO fur
nish specimens OF suspected waters that may
be forwarded, clear Instructions will be senl
as 10 the quantity Of water required, and tn
mode of collecting, packing and shipping it
lis particularly desired that no case be pre-
sented on doubtful or vague evidence, nee
one important object oftho inquiry demands
that ali such DO rejected, and only thos,
cases examined which involved tho stropges
grounds for believing that mischief has
really been caused by org 'nically foul drink
ing water.
The cost OF packages and transportation
for samples will be borne by the board O
health.

Best on Jarvis.

The Pittsboro Record gives a rerba-
TIM report of Mr.. w. J. Best's latest
speech, from which we extract as fol-
lowS:-
Il am not now prepared to say wheth
er the failure of the gentlemen to whom
1 allude to keep their contracts with me
and associates, shall stand IN the.
the consummation and perfect r~ealiza.
ton Of our plans, which, for a period OF
more than five years, has commanded
my best thoughts and efforts. That
their action will delay the good work i.
certain but have no idea that they
can prevent its ultimate completion. ]
know my rights In the Western North
Carolina Railroad and will speedily assert
them through the courts. [ have al
ready taken steps to do this and am sat.
isfed as to what the final result will be
That the result may be delayed in rea-
sonable to suppose, and the fear of tina,
delay alone has prompted me not tc
press the suit, which, in April last, ]
instituted against Messrs. Clyde, Logan
and Buford. DuringaH tbs time Ihau,
Iean led to sbeliete that such influence.
WouW be J5ought to bear By the State an
Morittes having the Western North Car
DINA Railroad matter In charge, a.
would compel the Richmond and Dan
vile people who, by trick and device,
had obtained a temporary advantage
over NE, to withdraw from that road on
payment of their claim with interest
and reasonable compensation for their
services. From day to dag and eceek to
1ceek for neary SIC months, / hare been
led on step Jy step By promises that to-
m0rrOtr, or nfrt WeeA, something w0u}i
be done. That nothing has been done
you all know. The Commissioners OF
the Western North Carolina Railroad
having fail to keep ard perform their
part of the contract, | must, as an
honest man, dealing with the capital Of
others who have reposed confidence in
IL me. acqualnt theH-my stockholders
and dlrectors-of the present aspect Of
the railroad situation upon what is
known a. the BEST contract in re-
gard to the Western North Carolina
Railroad. | will do this and leave nv
associates to decide whether or not we
shall proceed with the same earne.tness
which, up to this time, has character
ized our work in the building Of a road
from Goldsboro to Salisbury, or stop
and determine upon some new line of
action.
| think it highly probable that when
ne finish the road to S~mithield,
We shall take a breathing spell. We had
made all our arrangements to do some-
thing very different. In fact, it was our
purpose to work every man who could
cam his money during the whole win
ter and, # possible, complete u road
early III 1888; and We would certainly
nave done SO, but for this unexpected
action upon the part of the Colnmis-
slOners.
