Securing water for a Great city.

Special Correspondence Globe. Democrat.
The present city ofNew York is spend
ing $4,000, 900 to provide a larger supply
Of water and greater storage capacity,
and is making preliminary arrangements
for the greater city to spend about ten
times as much for the same purpose dur
ing the next ten or fifteen years. The
principal feature Of the present work is
the building Of a monster dam to conhne
the waters Of the Croton River. This dam
is located at Cornell, in Putnam County,
and, when completed, there will be no
similar structure anywhere in the world
approaching it in magnitude. 1t is
located at point where the river passed
through comparatively Darrow chasm
between two high hills Of solid rock.
There is a smaller dam few miles
above, and the overflow water is now
carried by sluceways along the side Of
the bill, so it does not interfere with
work on the big structure.
This Cornell dam, as it is called, is
built upon foundation Of the solid rock,
and in places this foundation is l35 feet
below the bed Of the river. The struct-
ure complete will be 200 feet high above
the river bed, or a total from foundation
base to top OF superstructure OF 1856 feet.
From a breadth OF 1876 feet at the bottom
it will taper gradually to Is feet on top.
The length OF the dam at the top will be
1900 feet. It is to be built Of solid
masonry, granite rock being used
throughout. No water will flow over
it when completed. The overflow from
the reservoirs will be carried around the
ends Of the dam through sluiceways cut
in the rock Of the hills.
The backwater will extend twenty
nine miles up the valley OF the river, and
the engineers estimate that five years
will be required for this vast lake to fill
completely and the bottom to become
settled and fixed. Seven country villages
will be wiped out Of existence, and more
than 100 farms will share the same fate.
The city Is now buying up tho land as

The Sperm Whale.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The common sperm whale, or caChalot,
has a very wide geographical range; it
is said that it inhRbits all seas except
those near the poles. 1t is very much
sought after because it furnishes uswith
spermaceti, ambergris, and much fine oil.
AS rule, it is from seventy to eighty
feet in length; it's head is immense, being
equal to one-half Of the entire bulk OF
the animal, and more than one third Of
it's length. The right side Of the head
and nose is occupied by cartilaginous
triangular.shaped cavity, called by
whalers the "case," which is the main
receptacle for spermaceti. The "case" is
divided into compartments Communicat-
ing with each other, and often contains
as much as ten large barrels Of sper-
maceti.
Though the head is large and clumsy
looking, 1t does not impede the whales
movements in the least, for it raises its
head above the surface Of the water when
swimming and keeps it above when at
rest.
1t is not very we'll known of what use
the spermacetl is to the whale, except
that it gives buoyancy to the fore part of
its body. Ambergris is a fragrant, waXy
secretion; it is a gray substance, and
when heated or dissolved in alcohol it
gives out peculiar agreeable odOr ex-
ceedingIy diffusive. 1t also has the
power of increasing the odor OF other
perfumes. Often it is found floating on
the sea or lying on the sea coast, and is
valued at about S5 an ounce.
Sperm whales traverse the seas in
herds called schools" or ''pods," by
whalers. Five hundred or more have
been seen in a single school," following
leader, whose duty it seems to be to
keep a close lookout for danger; in case
Of threatened harm he sounds an alarm
of q peculiar roar.

Something About Queen Victoria and Her
Way Of Living.
From the Galveston Tribune.
The Queen is barely 5 feet tall, but
she wears No. shoe, made in the style
Of the ordinary congress gaiter, The
heels are less than e.half inch in
height, andthe CATERS are fiat and broad
Their only ornamentation are tips Of
patent leather. She has no fancy for
new shoes, and wears a pair Of CATERS
until they are literally worn out, She
pays but 20 shillings pair for them, or
trihe lees than 80.
The Queen owns 600 houses, not royal
residences, but rent yielding property.
These represent q portion of her private
fortune. Osborne House, on the Isle Of
Wight, and Balmoral, her Highland
palace, are also private property.
Osborne and Bamoral are maintained
by the Queen at her expense, but the
Crown maintains great number of royal
palaces for her at a considerable yearly
expense. Some of these are Buckingham
Palace, Windsor Palace, the White
Lodge at Richmond Park, ST. James's
Palace, Kensington Palace, Hampton
Court, Kew Palace, Pembroke Lodge,
Holyrood Palace, the Thatched Cottage
and Sheen Cottage, Richmond Park, and
Bushby House in Bushby Park.
Many Of these the Queen never occu-
pies, but they are maintained year after
year just as II Victoria would move into
them the next day. Kensington Palace,
for instance, has cost on an average more
than $4,000 year to keep up for the
past eight years, and every penny Of the
sum was practically wasted
Four yachts are maintained for the
exclusive use of the Queen. They cost
originally 1,375,OOO. She only uses the
newest Of them for two or three days in
the year. To maintain it the Crown
pays $65000 annually.
One thousand functioneries are en-
ployed in the Queens household. When
ever she moves from one palace to another
many of them accompany her. The
nominal head of this army is the lord
steward, who receives a salary Of $4,000
a year. His Office is a sinecure, as he
does nothing but appear at court on
state occasions in a gorgeous uniform.
The real chief is the master Of the
household, who receives $500 per an
mum. All disputes arising among the
army employed in the royal palaces are
settled by two ancient bodies called the
Board of Green Cloth and the Court Of
the Marshasea. The Green Cloth
Court attends to matters concerning
Buckingham Palace, and the Marshalses
to disputes in all other royal palaces.
Part Of the household is made up OF a
state band, consisting of a master, con.
ductor, twenty-five instrumentalists, a
sergeant tFumpeter, nine household
trunpeAers ard . number Of household

The smallest men in Congress are
Senator Chandler OF New Hampshire, and
Representative Wheeler OF Alabama
"Fighting joe" Of Confederate fame.
Mr.. Chandler is 50 years old and General
Wheeler is 81, but both have slender,
boyish figures, and affect somewhat
youthful dress in wearing trim, natty
little sack coats.

A tickle wind spoke love one day,
Spoke love TO the leaves on the tree,
TIL they blushed pretty crimson;
Then the wind went back to the sea.
But the leaves they pined In sorrow,
In sorrow they paled and Drowned;
Then the growing wind again came by,
And kissed them, cad on the ground.

The Young People.

We see but dlmly through the mists and
vapors
Amid these earthly damps
What seem to us but sad, iunereal tapers
May be heavens distant lamps.
There is no Death What ssems 50 is tran
sltlOn;
This life OF mortal breath
Is but q suburb OF the life elysian,
Whose portal we call Death. -LORgielloW.

When midnight darkness reigns we do notsee
That the sad night Is mother Of the morn;
We cannot think our own sharp agony
May be the birth pang Of joy unborn.
