us to draw from the river at a point where 1t
was impossible to avoid all danger of con-
tamination. The muddy water, never very
wholesome. was quickly tainted with the feud
dust and foulness Of thousands of horses mules,
oxen and men. Even the floods brought down
by heavy rains gave but temporary relief. FROM
November II to December 10 daily supply or
five thousand gallons Of river water was Uttered
after having been cleared with alum. ON De-
cember L the alum exhausted, and, owing
to the muddy state of the river, only 100 gal
Ions could be filtered in one day. This was sup
plemented with 800 gallons of condensed
water from machinery constructed by the rail-
way authorities under the direction of Engineer
sheen of the Naval Brigade. second con-
denser was ready December n, when the
supply was increased to $500 from filters and
3 500 from the condensers. On the first day OF
the new year a third condenser was at work,
and the output from this source was raised 10
G 200 gallons, making the full supply of pure
water $500 gallons a day. The cOndensers were
made out of corrugated iron mealie tanks, iron
piping which had to be bent by hand, and boil
ers from a fitting shop, an armored traln-for
which at last safe and beneficial use had been
found-and a locomotive. This filtered and con-
densed water issued at the rate of three
quarters of a gallon day a man, while each
hospital in town received additional 500 gal
Ions daily. Lieutenant H. B. Abadie, of the
11th Hussars, was placed in charge of this i'm
portant Public Works Department, to which he
devoted great skill and energy.
