Father I'm Israel Fallen.

Yesterday Rev. Lynn Whitney passed
away, at his residence, in East Los An.
geles. Mr.. Whitney had reached the
ripe age of SS years, having reached moi
only David's three score and ten, but
even passed the four score years of the
Psalmist. His two sons, A. B. Whitney
and A. L. Whitney SO supported their
aged fathers steps that his lessening
strength was not labor and sorrow, but
to the last he was bright and cheerful.
He passes away respected and loved by
his neighbors and friends. The funeral
will take place today.

FRIDAY,
PURIFYING OUR WATER SUPPLY.

An account which appeared in the
ADVERTISER not long since of an eff
cient process for fltering and puri-
flying water on a large scale, recent
ly introduced by Messrs. HoIIister &
Coin their mineral water factory, sug-
gests the desirability and practic-
ability of applying the same or some
similar system to the water supply
of the whole town.
This is by no means SO absurd and
chimericaI a scheme as it may appear
to some The thing has actually
been and is now being done, upon a
scale which seems to leave no reason
able doubt Of its being entirely prac
ticable to subject even as large an
amount of water as is needed to sup
ply town of much greater popula-
zion than Honolulu, to d process
which Will render it beautifully
limpid, and about as near absolutely
pure as it can be made by any means
short of distillation. 1t seems to be
also we'll established that this can
be done at an expense which is well
within the ability of any fairly pros
porous community.
The apparatus used is quite sim
pie, and even upon the scale required
to treat the water supply of a whole
town, it's original cost would be no
very serious matter Being simple,
and constructed of durable materials,
the wear and tear is small. No ex-
pensive chemicals or materials of
any kind are required, and the nee
essary superintendent is nothing
beyond what any fairly intelligent
mechanic can give. The machine
now in use by Messrs. Hollster & Co.
occupies a space of about two feet
square by six feet high, and is
claimed to filter two thousand gal
Ions an hour. By the turning of
two or three cocks, the operation of
the apparatus is reversed, and the
filtering material subjected to a
thorough cleansing in few minutes.
We are aware, and are very glad
to say, that our present water sup
ply is ordinarily of very good quail
ty, much better in fact than that Of
many towns of larger size and much
greater pretensions. At the same
time, we all know that after every
considerable rain, the water from
our taps is very muddy. During
long dry spells, when streams are
low and the water In the reservoirs
shallow, there is liable to be such an
increase in the foreign matters held
either in suspension or solution, as
to amount to serious impairment of
purity and consequent healthfulness.
There have been times when there
was a prevalence of sickness of a
kind which, if not demonstrably due
to impure water supply, was, at least,
strongly suggestive of such an ORR
gin.
The furnishing Of Honolulu with
water being in the hands of the gov
eminent, the adoption of any such
measure as the one proposed would
have to be a government undertak-
ing. We hereby invite the Interior
Department and the Public Works
Bureau to look into the matter care
fully, with a view to ascertaining if
the benefits to accrue are not sufi
GENTLY great in proportion to the
expense involved, to Justify official
action.

They export to foreign countries what is largely pro- duced in our part of the world. H. said the United States Was in close proximity to them. and -por.ation was shorter. and it should hc cheaper from this country tg dny oi these South American states than from those countries to Europe.
