a MOSl Remarkable Dam.

One OF the most remarkable dams in
the world for height and construction is
that by which the Vyrnwy river, north
ern Wales, is enabled to supply water to
the city OF Liverpool, some seventy miles
distant. In building this dam Il great
trench was first excavated across the val
ley for u length of LOO feet, u width of
100 and u maximum depth OF 60. The
masonry was started in this trench; it
consists Of immense irregular blocks Of
slate, wedged together and thoroughly
bcdded in Portland cement mortar, the
faces being formed Of cut stone blocks
fitted together with great care, the great
est height of the dam being l61 feet. It's
most remarkable feature is the lack OF
any channel to carry off floods, the sur
plus in the lake flowing down the front Of
the dam, which is curved to permit as
free descent as possible and prevent the
formation Of eddies at the bottom. The
lake formed by this dam covers an area
foui and three-fourths miles long, from
one-quarter to fivc-eighths OF Il mile wide,
and holds largely over twelve million gal
Ions. The equeduct leading from the in
lake tower to the distributing reservoir,
about two miles from the city, is sixty
eight miles long, and consists principally
OF large cast-iron pipe line from thirty
nine to forty-two. inches in diameter.
There are Il number Of reservoirs and
tanks along the line, and at one place is
4 great tilterng plant y. Sun.
