| inch In thirteen minutes. In view OF
these conditions, no additional number
of basins would have at all affected
the situation. The sewer could not
carry away more water than 1t did,
and the excess of course had to find
some overflow.
Additional basins are. however. a
necessity, under ordinary conditions,
for keeping the streets in proper shape.
/ certainly cannot see in any event,
why this department Is to be censured
, for lack of the proper number OF
basins. The appropriation given us
does not make any allowance for the
building of basins which properly
comes under the head of improvements.
The only item we are given consists
of an allowance for repairs and clean
ing. That this appropriation Is pretty
well exhausted, without any further
drain upon 1t Is shown by the fact that
we have an unexpended balance of only
s1.S1 from last year.
Councils must take all action for the
creating of new basins. We need five
new ones in the Fourteenth ward, at
present, and ordinances had to be in
troduced in councils before we could
secure them

He does claim, however, that what is
really needed Is the additional sewer
system on that street, which was pro-
vided for in the city bond ordinance
An appropriation of $4,000 was made,
but owing to the refusal of Hayes &
Sons to take the bonds. the prospect
of new sewer is postponed. Said Mr.
Roche:
None of the basins were blocked
Thursday, and the sewer was doing it's
full duty, but was unable to cope with
that rainfall, which was the heaviest
Of the season.

| e. Allen, superintendent of the bureau
| of health, and City Solicitor George Nj.
Watson yesterday inspected the reser-
| voir of the Scranton Gas and Water
company on the mountain east of the
| city, and at Elmhurst. They were ac-
companied by Colonel T.. Fl. Ripple.
| Robert Reeves, superintendent of the
company, and representatives of the
press.
The first visit was to the high pres
sure reservoir at Dunmore, which sup
plies the high places of the city, ana
has capacity of storing two million
gallons. From there the party went to
the other distributing reservoir at No.
T. which has a capacity of eighty mil
lion gallons, and from which the great
er part of the city is supplied. The
straining system at this place was eX-
amined with much interest. and the
general condition of this reservoir and
the manner in which the water is
drawn from it to the different parts OF
the city was minutely inquired into.
ELMHURsT RESERVOIR.
The next point visited was the great
dam at Elmhurst, with a capacity of
fourteen hundred million gallons The
retaining walls on either side of the
dam have within the last few months
been raised from two to five feet to
prevent damage to the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western and Erie tracks.
such as happened during the floods Of
last spring. Above Elmhurst toward
Lake Ariel. is the Oak Run reservoir,
with a storage capacity of 800 million
gallons.
Into the Elmhurst reservoir can also
be turned water from Lake Henry at
Moscow and the headwaters of the Le-
high river assuring never failing
supply.
From Elmhurst the party crossed
the mountain to the Williams bridge
dam, which during the year was raised
five feet and it's storage capacity in
creased seventy million gallons, max
ing the total capacity $50 million gall
Ions. The high pressure reservoir at
Dunmore is supplied from Williams
bridge and Lake Scranton, which was
the next point to receive attention. In
that body twentysix hundred million
gallons are stored.
VERY SATISFACTORY.
The inspection was highly satisfac-
tory to the officials who expressed
themselves as greatly pleased with the
condition in which they found that part
of the city's water supply The COM
pany owns ten thousand acres of land
to protect the water shed from which
it draws it's supply for the reservoirs
in Scranton.
Before returning to the city the in
spection party went over the new
roads leading to and from Mt. Anony-
nous, a high peak overlooking Lake
Scranton. The roads are about two
miles in length and are about the best
yet laid out by the Gas and Water
company. The view as the roads wind
up the mountain is magnificent and
prepares one for the grandeur of the
view when the summit is reached.
Gravelled paths have also been laid
out to make it easy for pedestrians to
reach the summit. where fifty foot
observatory is to be built. Altogether
the Gas and Water company now has
fourteen miles of roads in the region
about Lake Scranton, which are not
surpassed by any roads in this part Of
the state.

Miss Elizabeth, Wallace Of the modern

Chicago, who is spending her summer va

q very interesting experiment in behalf OF
the university. It is the policy Of the
university to affiliate schools in various
parts OF the country whose work it ap-
provessS and Miss Wallace was sent to
Paris to investigate conditions with &
View Of finding or establishing an affiliated
school there of college standing for stu
dents who wish to study modern Ian
guages and particularly French under the
most favorable circumstances. T. -
st Miss Wallace went to Paris in the spring
to look up the existing schools
attended by foreign girls and found most
excellent one hidden under the name of
the Internatio Guild. It is conducted
by an Englishwoma Miss Edith WI
iiams, who has been a resident Of Paris
for twenty years and has about 900 pu-
pills. The director, plan and spirit of the
school impressed Miss Wallace very ia
vorably, and after thorough test of the
classes at the Guild Miss Wallace was
satisfied that the field was already occu-
pied by a school that fulfilled admirably
the purpose of the university. In her re-
port made to. the University of Chicago
on her return this summer, she recon-
,mended the affiliation of the existing
school rather than the establishment Of
