OUTLET FROM RESERVOIR.

But the new aqueduct is not yet COM
pleted. This paper deals with the present or
old one.
Croton river enters the Hudson at Teller's
point, forty miles above New York city.
Six miles above the mouth of the Croton
river, and thirty five miles north of Central
park, the present aqueduct begins. Up near
Owentown is a great natural basin called
Croton lake. 1t holds 500, 100000 gallons of
water. At the southwestern end of this lake
a gigantic dam is built, and here the great
thirty-fve mile aqueduct starts. The dam iS
$50 feet wide, and As feet high.
The aqueduct trails across ravines, tunnels
through solid granite hills, and leaps high
over rivers 1t crosses Harlem under the
floor of High Bridge in huge pipe about
twenty-three feet around. At intervals of
every half mile it is pierced by pipe to ven
tilate it, In the first illustration such VEN
tilator appears in cross section.
In the second illustration the Central park
end of the aqueduct is seen Here, thirty
feet underground, begin the forty eight inch
mains that conduct the water through the
city. This point is known as the pipe gallery

Woman is surely winning her way.
Mayor Grace, of New York city, has
Just appointed, as school commissioners
of the metropolis, Mrs. Mary n. Ag-
new, wife of DR.. G.. r. Agnew, and
Miss Grace H. Dodge, granddaughter
of the late VIM. E. Dodge. In making
the appointments, Mayor Grace said
he wanted women in the local boards Of
school trustees so that they should have
a voice in the appointment of the fe-
male teachers and in the management
of the girl pupils. The tendency of
the girls in the public schools was
to study too hard, and this tendency
could best be checked by women who
naturally know more about their
capabilities and have more interest in
them than men. The Normal college,
too, could be best regulated if women
had something to say about it. In
short the entire school system would
be the better for women having a hand
in the management. The mismange-
ment of Cleveland's public school af-
fairs may lead to some action similar to
that taken by the Mayor of the most
important city in the country. We
think there would be less hair-pulling
and less scheming and a better under
standing of the needs of the pupils, by
our board of education, were couple
of ladies member of that body, by ap-
pointment or election. Woman is a
power in educational and literary mat
ters, and our present board of educators
is fast demonstrating that men are not
the most competent to supervise the ear.

way There is an elevated roadway crossing
q street underneath, in the fashion familiar
in Central park, New York. Across the elc-
waited roadway is an arch and above, in the
center OF this, is to stand the statue. Those
who pass the archway will look up at the
hero sitting upon his horse.
The history of the sculptor who made the
design is one of peculiar interest He came
to this country, not so many years ago, a
brown skinned, bright-eyed young italian.
He was ready to work at anything his hand
could find to do, but lie bad already trade
and good one. He was a marble cutter
with ideas and hopes For years he worked
at graveyard statues Not to put too fine
point upon it, he was q tombstone sculptor.
But he made more artistic tombstones than
anybody else could, and it was not long till
his beautiful productions attracted &c atten-
ton of rich Cincinnatians. He became known
not as mechanic, but as an artist. When
the modelling class was started in the Cincin-
natl school of design, Louis Rebisso was made
teacher of it. Since then his career has been
steadily upward. He is one of the rising
sculptors of the country.

Accidents have come fearfully near hap
pening more than once 1t is necessary to
travel twenty-four hours to complete the
whole length and make repairs, sometimes
remaining in the aqueduct during that time
Once the engineer ordered the gate keeper ar
Croton dam to let the water in at II p M
The gate keeper misunderstood and flooded
the aqueduct at II in the forenoon. 1t was
all the men could do to reach the nearest
manhole and climb up the ladder before they
were borne down by the rushing tide. The
water was already to their waists, and they
staggered while trying to keep their feet in
the tearing current. The coolness and pluck
of the engineer kept them from getting
panicky, and saved them. .....
The water is not always entirely drained
out of the aqueduct Then enough is left in,
about five feet, to row over the course in
metallic boat. This is scarcely less dan
gerous than the other. The boat is easily
upset and sunk, and then for those who lose
their heads, as poor humanity is apt to do in
trying situations, there is the added danger
Of drowning. Fortunately only one life has
ever been lost in the great conduit

Sometimes once a year, sometimes oftensr,
it is necessary to inspect the whole thirty

SECTION OF AQUEDUCT. hoh anu H'i vi
people.
Three hundred and thirty-nine square miles
are included in the region drained by the
twenty three lakes The lakes are emptied
into small streams, which mingle their waters.
The original source of the Croton river is the
waters of three springs in Putnam county.
These run out into three pretty little brooks.
The brooks unite in a sociable way near
Owentown, N. Y, and run along together,
and that is how the Croton gets its start.
Then Immediately afterward come into it the
waters of the twenty-three lakes, and so it be
comes of sufficient importance to furnish the
water supply of so many people.
This means only the present supply That
has been found inadequate, and new water
sheds have been built to take in yet other
lakes A new aqueduct is in process of cree
ton, too. 1t will be a year or two before it
is finished. When it is, New York will have
a purer, nobler water supply than any city
since ancient Rome, except, perhaps, Glas-
gov.

THE GRAND STAND.

Though of comparatively recent construc-
ton, The enterprise and hopefulness of the
people Of Minnesota is shown by the rapidity
inwhich the work was pushed toward compile
ton, and by the breadth and magnitude of
the plan which they have laid down. The
buildings are SO isolated that confagration
in one cannot spread to the others, while
plenty of room is in this way allowed for
the enlargement of the structures as the de-
velopment of the various branches of ex.
hibits warrants the extension. The citizens
of the great northwest have great faith in

which their n,w state fair grounds Of Min
