Entire new bath houses have been
provided for both white and colored
bathers, and above all what has caught
the popular favor are the bathing boxes,
moored in the outer basin.
Floating Bath Houses.
The new floating baths are construct

but have been designed with view to
making the Washington product model
for other municipalities. Those IN other
cities are mostly moored TO docks or
anchored at some prominent part OF the
river. They must not only provide the
necessary bathing compartments. but
must be equipped with dressing rooms
as well. The advantage here of having
the dressing rooms on shore is not to be
overestimated. It will give the floating
bath house over entirely to the bathing
accommodations. Tie capacity will thus
be increased far beyond that of similar
