To CLEAR
OUT WATER
New Plan Adopted
to Prevent
Pumps.
OPEN PIPES AT
BASEMENT LEVEL
Natural Course of Water Makes
it Possible to Garry Off
Waste CheapIy.

al nth THE completion of the
WV basement for the new Levers &
Cooke building in King street,
there has been included among the APP
pliances for the protection of below
water-level hoorings something which
promises to revolutionize the construc-
ton of such buildings.
The lower floor of the building is
fourteen inches below water level The
superficial area of the floor is some H.
900 feet and there are in the basement
nearly twenty pillars which are to sup
port the main structure. These pillars
were placed before the construction OF
the cement floor was undertaken; and
which had to be covered with the con-
crete and cement. The water pressure
at the depth at which the floor was to
be placed was estimated at about %
suit was that there was a constant
struggle for the keeping down of the
water until the concrete and cement
had chance to solidify.
During the putting down of the floor
there were used several pumps, the
first being of hand power and later
there being substituted an electrical
pump. BY the use of this means there
was constantly a reduction OF the wa
ter pressure to the minimum from the
moment the first square foot Of con-
crete was laid. The work was under
taken from the two ends of the build
ing, so that the upward force of the
water would be reduced through an
open space constantly left, near the
center of the building. The various
openings which served to equalize the
pressure were kept clear of water all
the time and by the process of closing
up the spaces there were finally rduced
until the entire floor was laid. except

one point about three feet square.
There the pumps were concentrated
and at length when all had been pre-
pared this small spot was cleared OF
the pump and then of the water which
had risen very rapidly, and the hole
was filled with concrete and dry ce-
ment. until the level was reached
While all these processes were going
on there had been arranged the new
provision for the water. which is in the
form of stump, cofferdammed, and fit
ted in the center with a ten-inch pipe,
which rises one foot above the level of
the water. This open pipe stands in
the center of the stump five feet square
and seven feet deep. This stump is for
the collection of any water which may
be collected In the basement, owing to
the washing of the floor or the acct
dental breaking of a dead light in the
sidewalk. The fact that the pipe is
open gives an opportunity for the dis
position of this waste water The rule
OF physics that water will find it's level
acts as the regulator. When there is
any collection of water in the sump
IL may be pumped into the open pipe
and there it is Immediately taken up
and finding its level with the under
ground supply. leaves the level in the
pipe just the same, II inches above the
floor. Thus there is relieved the ne
cessity of pumping the water from the
basement to the higher level of the
street, and the cost of keeping down
the amount of water which thus COL
lects from the natural uses In the store
Is reduced to q minimum
The plan was that of Architect Trap
hagen, and now that the floor has been
closed and the small seepage from the
incomplete apron around the walls and
the drying cement skin surface is col
lected there, the working of the plan is
perfect. The result of the putting down
of the basement floor in this way is
that 1t has been done at a minimum of
expense to the contractor. The entire
1900 feet of flooring has been put in
with the absorption of about 1900 bar
reis of cement in the fourteen inches
of concrete surface. This Is very
small expense and is taken as the di-
rect result of the plans of the archi-
tect and the generalship of Superin-
tendent of Construction Frank Owens.
for the contractors. The placing of the
open pipe in the stump will be of i'm
mense value to the users of the build
ing and will obviate much cost and
trouble in keeping clear the basement

.OP EUM IS
NOT GOOD
Shorey Reports on
Samples of
Beer.
MILK IS NOW UP
TO STANDARD
Food Commissioner Investigation
Shows Honolulu Products Of
Excellent Quality.

The opium sold in Honolulu is be-
low standard, according TO the report
of Food Commissioner Shorey. On the
other hand beer is of good quality
while the milk is also up to the STAN
dard. Some samples of coffee were re-
ported bad. But two of the samples
examined during the month fell below
the requirements. These were J. Mat
tos. total solids 1915, butter fat 1.9; NJ
Abreu. total solids Ill. butter fat 33.
Professor Shorey Incorporates in his
report summary of the work done in
his department during the year. He
says:
-Four samples of tincture of opium
We're examined, and all found TO be
below standard; two of them, however,
very little. In January last three sam
pies of this drug We're examined, and
L give below the results obtained in
both cases. The United States pharma-
copoeia requires that tincture of opium
shall contain not less than 1.9 nor more
than LIS grams of, morphine per 100 &C.
The amounts of morphine contained in
100 &C. of the samples were as follows:
jan. 1901. Dec, 1901.
Hebron Drug Co. 0. 90 gram 1.21 grams
Benson, Smith &
Co ,...... LIS grams 1. 20 grams
HOLSTER Drug
Co. . o. 9S gram O 90 gram
Honolulu Drug
co. NO sample y. 81 gram
Six samples of beer, including the
brands sold in most of the saloons,
We're examined, and nothing which can
be considered an adulteration found
The amount of alcohol contained varied
from 3.5 to AS per cent, and the
amount of extract from to per cent.
Five of the six samples contained some
adulterative, either benzoic acid or a
fuoride but as these substances are
not injurious, they cannot be considered
an adulteration as the law here now
reads.
Two samples of coffee found on sale
on examination We're found TO contain
chicory and roasted cereal. These sam
pies were obtained from Joao Moniz,
Punchbowl street, and were labelled
respectively:
/. Excellente Ground Coffee, Wash
ington Mercantile Company.
