PROPOSED QUAKER BRIDGE DAM.
Tie aqueGuct commences III northern
Wales, high up in the mountains, where.
crossing the upper part Of the Nyrnwy
valley, an immense dam has been erected
10 collect tho water of the river which
gives the name TO the valley. The lake
is four and three-fourtils miles long and
half a mile wide. The area covered by
/ is amounts 70 1,l2l acres. The city of
Liverpool had 10 buy the village Of
/ Llanwyddin, together with the church
/ parsonage and cemetery, before The work
/ could be commenced, and where for
/ centuries generation after generation
| had spent their lives, the waves are
/ now curling under the influence of the
/ breeze. Tho greatest depth of the lake
/ will be 81 feet and the waters here col
/ lected will amount To II, 13l ,000, 900 gal
/ Ions. This artificial lake is the greatest
! lake which Wales possesses. The length
! Of this giant dam which closes up the
valley is LIE feet. At the base it is
| l2O feet wide. The height from the
! foundation TO the carriage road on top
! i, 16l feet; from the bed Of the river,
| 1Ol feet Tho dam contains not less
than 2G0,0 cubic yards of masonry,
which weighs 500. 700 tons.
Before tho water leaves the lake it is
carefully filtered in tower 160 feet
| high For J1iles the water must be con-
Quoted subterraneously under rivers,
| lakes and hills. Then again, when the
! topography requires it, the water must be
lifted by hydraulic pressure and siphons.
/ Between the Vyrnwy lake and Liverpool
/ there have been built for this purpose a
/ number of reservoirs, which can contain
/ immense masses of water. so that even
/ If there should be an obstruction at the
! commencement Of the aqueduct Liver
/ pool would not suffer any interruption
in its water capply. An important part
Of the aqucduct is the tunnel under the
river hersey, which is 500 feet long. On
/ the left side Of the river the water is con-
Quoted in steel pipes down n shaft 6S
| feet long into tho tunnel 20 ascend again
on the right side in similar pipes for 104
| feet. From there the water viii so into
I the basin from which takes place the
/ distribution over Liverpool.
The cost Of this gigantic enterprise,
which is justly designated triumph of
modern engineering. will probably
amount to over $4,000, ,000-$20, ,000, COO.
The proposed Quaker Bridge reservoir
/ for New York city would exceed this in
volume of water. but the engineering
difficulties would be much less. The
weight of opinion among the best engi-
neers Is that the scheme Is perfectly prac-
ticable and the dam could be made per
fectly safe.

Johnstown. though rather poor earthea
affair, did not burst, as the common
phrase goes-it wore or washed away

For the convenience Of Hartford, Conn,

gave way, in 1861, the 200, 200, 900 gal

posed 10 secure New York city against

greatest in the world, is the Quaker
Bridge dam. which would increase tho
