THE NEW WATER WORKS, COST
Engineer Johnston's ! stimate S364,-
500 NNnth rhn Sta at = 900

Engineer Johnston's Istimate S3e4,-
500 With the Site at $4,000.
The new water works plan adopted by
the city has caused an inquiry as to the
cost of the works. Consulting Engineer
Johnston in his estimate for the site selected
by the city, puts the cost of the works at
1854, 500. That estimate puts the cost Of the
site at $1,000.
Tie other items we're as follows: Wells,
s25, 600; well connections, $500; conduit,
$4,000; wet well, S6000 pump founda-
tions, 5000: boiler foundations, 81 ,0O0
chimney, 81. 900; buildings, engine, boiler,
coal etc. rooms, $4,000; delivery counec-
tions, $4,000; force main, $4,000; pumps
and boilers, Sl20 900; land, s., 600; railroad,
$4,000; contingent, $33, 900.
These estimates, Mr.. Johnston said, are
intended t. be liberal aud sufficient. IL
must be remembered, however, that the esti,
mates for wells, well connections and CON
duit are liable to error, from the fact that it
ia not practicable to say beforehand Just
how many wells will be needed, or how
wide an expanse Of country they should
cover. This ia source of error
that is equally involved in any scheme
for water supply that can be de-
vlsed. In the estimates submitted
between 5000 and 1900 feet Of conduit, and
ten wells are contemplated. The expert
ence at the existing works and the general
principles Of hydraulics and the nature of
the wells IN and about Savannah indicate
that this much work will to needed. 1t is
not to be understood that more will not be
needed. The items for pumps, boilers
buildings and work about the buildings and
other things are believed to be sufficiently
liberal, except that possibly the estimates
for railroads are doubtful, Surveys for
railroads are now in progress.

NEED FOR A FE-SEEVICE.
The Lack OF Means to Protect and
Rescue Fathers at Tybee.

The Lack OF Means to Protect ana
Rescue Fathers at Tybee.
TIE drowning at Tybee last week again
shows the necessity of the adoption OF some
system tor the protection Of life at the
beach There are few so~called lie
lines" in the water, but they are about
worthless, and few people ever bother with
them
IL has been suggested, and the suggestion
! IS seem ngly good one, that three or four
men be employed as life-sayers, the same as
! at Couey Island, Rockaway, Atlantic City
! and other ocean resorts. Inc cost OF main
I tanning this service during the summer
months would not be heavy, and the safe
! guard which would be thrown around the
( lives Of people would more than amply re-
pay Ty bee S government for the outlay.
There IS no doubt that the drownings
which occur at I ybee every summer mill
tate to a considerable extent against the res
sort through the country. People from in
land cities generally visit the sea-
shore more for ocean bathing II an
anything else. When they find out
tia, there is no provision made
for hfe-saving in case Of accident in the
water, they will most naturally 60 where
there is protection.
The proper method would be to have life
boats on the beach, fully equipped, and in
case of accident the life-savers could put
out at once 10 the rescue. Two boats, called
life-l oats, are row at Tybee, but
when parties undertook 10 use them
TO attempt the rescue Of McCloskey
last Su day no oars could be found.
necessary articles were locked up at
one If the hotels, and when they were
secured all hope of saving the man was
gone. Had the oars been IN the boats, rs
they should have been, there is possibility
that McClcskey " ould have been taken out |
Of tue water in time to resuscitate him.
Some sort of protection for bathers is
a matter that Tybee will have to consider |
and arrange for some time, and the sooner !
the municipal government of the island |
takes hold OF the matter the better it will !

Another Cool summer Day.

Yesterday was another cool summer day,
though slightly warmer than the preceding
day. The maximum temperature was ~
and the minimum 100. The mean tempera-
ture was 1O0 below the normal for the day
The day was generally much warmer

are that there will be an increase in the

day. There was very little rain throughout
the country, few showers being reported

Fargo Argus: As soon as Senator Hans
burough of North Dakota became con-
vinced that the interests of the party would
be subserved by the location Of the repub-
lican convention at Minneapolis, he pitched
in with his accustomed vegor and did
veoman's service for the choice of the
Northwest. The Argus has it from the
best authority that ex-senator Pierce,
chairman Of the Minneapolis committee,
after the fight was over, went to senathr
n. and said: "Fans, ! understand you did
a great deal for us, and thank you for it.
I viii not forget 1t; I will rememqer it, as
y0u will see." Z will be curious to watch
hew the ex-senator carries out these pro-
