Niagara Falls, June. 13.-Prof. Otto
of France made successful demon
stration of the ozone process of puri-
fying water. 1t was witnessed by fifty
officials of this city and Lockport. An
electric current of $4,000 volts was sent
through a cylinder oZonized through
which air passed and as the air met
the electrical discharges the oxygen
was burned creating ozone. This or
one was carried to the sterilizing tower
by two pipes. The unpurified water en-
tered the tower at the top, and there in
spray form, first met the ozone. AS it
flowed downward thru fine granite it
again met the ozone, completing the
process. The water product was clear
and quite changed. 1t is stated that
from thirty to forty electrical horse
power will treat 5000 tons of water a
day. Later, Prof. Otto viii demon
strate the process before the leading
