tions During Last Month.

tions During Last Month.
Capt Gaillard, Corps of Engineers, in a
report of operations on the Washington
aqueduct during February. says that the
trustees of the Chesajeake and Ohio canal
have been paid the award of $4,000 on ac-
count of damages sustained by raising the
height of the dam at Great Falls the pay
ment of which was authorized by the Sec
retary of War September, 1895. The water
on the gauge at Great Falls reached
height of 81 feet above the crest of the
dam February p, being the highest stage
of the river recorded since June 1899. No
damage was done to the recently complet
ed dam, the aqGeduct Or ir accessory
structures.
During February the height Of water on
gauge at the mouth of the conduit at
Great Falls varied between 15l.2 and 1866
feet above the datum plane the last read
ing marking the highest stage of the river
since June 1889. The condition of the
water during the month at various points
of the system is stated as follows: AT
Great Falls, very turbid .twenty-six days
and clear two days; at the etiluent gate
house, Dalecarlia recefbing reservoir),
very turbid twenty-three days, turbid two
days and clear three days; al the effiuent
gate house, distributing reservoir, very tur-
bid twenty-five days, turbid one day and
clear five days. During the month the water
level in the distributing reservoir varied
between 1880 and 1902 fest, the lower
reading being due solely to waste during
the very cold weather at the: close of the
preceding menth.
Preparations have been made for crush
ing blue stone for use in repairing the
Conduit road near the DalecaTlia reservoir
and at other points. The roed-has been
repaired on the distributing reservoir di-
vision The fallen trees on the northwest
shore of the Dalecarlia reservoir are to
be cut up and removed. The work of in
serting blow-offs and air valves in the

Democratic majority and send a

silver, which cannot possibly do us
as much harm. Let the people have
a medium of exchange that will
stimulate their industry, and that
they can get hold of once in awhile.
There is no doubt in my mind that
