Bringing the Sea to London.

Another attempt is to be made to Ering pure sea water within the reach of Londoners, says the London Tele- graph. It is proposed to tap the chan mel at Lancing, in Sussex, whence the salt waves would be pumped D level of nearly 500 feet at the top of Steyn- ing hill. It will then flow by gravita- tion through the main aqueduct to Battersea, and thence across the Thames to Cromwell road, South Ken sington, whence branches are to be laid for service in Paddington and Kensington, Mayfair, Marylebone and the Strand districts, and in Whitehall and Westminster, from a conduit at Charing Cross. It Is also proposed to lay another branch main from Far ringdon street to Shoreditch and along the Bethnal Green road to Victoria park. The Builder hopes that the main object of this is to provide for sea water swimming baths in London, which would undoubtedly be an im- mense boon to the community.

LIFE-SAVING DEVICES.
4 Number to BE Placed Exhibi-
ton at the Paris Exposition.

Antbcny Pollok, the patent attorney.
and his wife we're among the passengers
lost on the steamship La Bourg0gne in
collision with the Cramarthyshire. The
Pollok heirs decided to offer a memorial
prize Of see eco for the best lifesaying de-
vice in case of disaster az sea.
When United States Commissioner Gen
eraI Peck was appointed those having this
competition in charge secured his consent
to show the devices which might be DEEM
cd worthy at the Paris Exposition with a
view TO stimulating invention along the
same lines in other countries.
Mr.. Peck placed the matter in the hands
of John II. McGibbons. of his staff. who
has since had the matter in charge.
\ committee of naval experts was ap-
pointed to take charge of the devices as
they were offered and to select those
which were considered worthy of being
forwarded to Paris.
H. p. Rucker, in charge of the officers of
commissioners in New York, reports that
,l2 Gfe-saving devices were received from
sII parts of the United States. and out of
,his number the committee has selected
zen which will be sent to Paris and placed
on exhibition.
Among the competitors whose devices
have been selected as worthy is Chiet
Constructor Hichborn. L. S. y.
II is announced that persons whose de-
vices have not been selected can send
them to Paris at their own expense and
they will be placed on exhibition
