horse mule team is required to pull loads
too grca, for dead levels-lOads that frequently
break down the best of wagons--up the red
hill beyond the power house. where there is
one Of the longest and severest grades in the
District of Columbia 1t is pitiable to see
these team, going by all day long, pulling their
very hearts out under Lrutal lash, trying to
climb those heights. 1t il doubtful il such

brutality to animals ever was seen before in
this city or its suburbs. The grade up that
hill is nearly per cent for about q quarter of

uous OF our engineering plumbers. A very
small outlay, far less than the annual loss to
our people who have to ascend this unneces-
