THE NArATORIUM.
The Tubing In the ArtesIan Wells Under the
Rlufs Crushed Flat

The Tubing In the ArtesIan Wells Under the
Bluffs Crushed Flat.
The Natatorium is in running order
again in every one of its departments
The Turkish bathrooms wers completed
and thrown open to the public for the
first time yesterday.
The large well which feeds the Nata-
forum is working nicely again with a
deep well pump. The small well near
by has been opened up to the depth OF
twenty feet, at about which depth the
slide in the bluff occurred. This tube is
not only bent as was tho larger one, but
the tubing is fiattened out for quite dis
tauce, showing what an enormous pres
sure has been brought to bear upon 1t by
the sloughIng banks.
It is estimated that damage to the
wells has cost the Natatorium company
about $4,000 in the expenses of repairs
and the loss of patronage during the
Spring Palace exhibition, which would
have been enormous. However, the
1000 gallons are pouring in and out there
now regularly, and everything is ship
shape again. Col. j. X. Ashby was the
first TO patronize the Turkish bath, and
that gentleman declares that 1t excell-d
anything of the kind he had ever taken,
and he has done the act in all of the
larger cities of the country.
