Rev. r. w. Spillman. who has long
been connected with the Baptist State
Sunday School Board, has accepted
similar work in larger field under Sec
rotary Eros, of the Sunday School Boari
of the Southern Baptist Convention.
He may enter upon his new work June
list, or may continue as Sunday School
Secretary of the Baptist Church in
North Carolina until the convention
meets in December.
Mr.. Spillman has done great work
for Sunday schools in North Carolina.
and the State will hate to give him up.
Mr.. Spillman is now in Mexico, having
recently made a Sunday school tour of
the West with Prof. Hamil. The Bibli-

1.-The following extract from per-

the continent in the interest of the Sun
day schools, is characteristic: We arc
having great tour, a regular ovation
everywhere, great crowds of people and

THE WATER SUPPLY FOR, THE CITY.
in the Water Company Plant
Completed and Accepted by It's
Officers and Directors.

Raleigh now has one of the best equip
ped water works plants in the South,
with capacity to meet any demand like
ly to be made on it for the next ten years.
The improvements that have been go
ing on in the plant have been completed
and it was yesterday afternoon turned
over to the directors, after having been
first thoroughly tested and found salts
factory in every particular.
Though the capacity of the plant has
been greatly increased by the addition
OF a new 125-horse power marine boiler,
the reftting of pumps and the like, the
most important improvements made are
such as to insure better and purer water.
These are a new settling tank, new filters
and thorough cleaning out of the old
reservoir.
The settling tank is the largest in the
State and one of the largest in the South,
being 30 feet in diameter and 20 feet
deep, having a capacity of 100000 gallons.
This catches the heavier particles Of
solid matter in the water pumped up from
the creek.
From this tank, the water passes into
the filters. These are of the gravity type,
and FIVE in number with a capacity Of
100000 gallons each a day. These filters
are immense tanks, partially filled with
pure sand and take out of the water every
particle of solid matter 80 per cent Of the
bacteria and all the alum or other astrin-
gent matter put in it to clear and purify
it, Filters of this pattern are used by
all the best and most up-to-date water
concerns of the country.
The bottom of the reservoir. which has
not been drawn off and cleaned out since
it was first built, was found covered with
a thick layer of mud leaves and other
debris. 1t has therefore been emptied
and some % or 30 hands are at work
cleaning and washing it out. Also a
waste-pipe has been put in at the bottom
SO that hereafter it may be cleaned out
at least once a year.
