WASHINGTON. D. c., October 81
The most mysterious railroad ever built
in Virginia, in fact, there has scarcely
ever been road constructed in this
country, where the plans and ultimate
aims Of the people behind the project
-.ere so sedulously concealed as are
those OF the Tidewa ter. 1t is to run from
Norfolk to Deepwater, little village on
the Kanawi1a River. twenty-five miles
east OF Charleston. Deepwater is on the
line Of the Chesapeake and Ohio, but it is
not plain that that road will be OF any
benefit to the ,ridewater, for the Tide
water has had to encounter the oppo-
sition of the Norfolk and Western at
every step, and the last named road and
the Chesapeake and Ohio are under the
control of the Pennsylvania, The Nor
folk and Western. which has developed
the coal fields OF the Flat Top region in
Southwest Virginia and West Virginia,

lust lnuCl Tor tne EQeVelOpNleHI ol llic
mines of the Kanawha and New River
fields in West Virginia, and It is not to
be supposed that 1t has the, slightest
desire to encourage the building of an
other line into tn territory 1t has been
occupying so long. 80
No Lake Connection.
It is hardly to be imagined that the
Underwater wishes to secure an outlet TO
salt water alone, for the coal mined III
its territory. There is a better market TO
be had onAthe Great Lakes, but there is
no line by which it can reach those
markets, unless it builds or ACQUIRES
scme line already built. The Chesapeake
and Ohio has lake connections through
the Big Four.
There can be little doubt that the man

WATER FOR ST. JOHNSBURY.
The Village Trustees to Report at a
Meeting on Friday Evening-An
Outline of What They Have Done.

The special village meeting at the
Stanley Opera House next Friday even
ing to consider the question of water for
St. Iohnsbury should be largely atteno'
ed-and doubtless will be. The move
ment inaugurated by the State Board
Of Health makes it imperative that the
village take definite action in the near
future. An unfaiIing supply of good
water Is an absolute necessity, and now
that the voters OF this village are to be
brought face to face with the problem
tbey will meet 1t conservatively and In
telligently. The trustees have done faith
fully the duty assigned to them at the
last meeting,-they have investigated
accessible sources of supply, the quality
of the water, the probable expense OF
bringing the water into the village-ard
the report they are to present next
Friday evening will enable the voters to
see the situation clearly.
Coles pond, in Walden, Joes pond'ane
Halls pond, in Concord, were the sources
visited and examined, and the artesiai
, well proposition was looked into. Th
:. latter was regarded as not practicable
!. not likely to provide an uninterrupted
+ supply of good water, and so compare
lively little time was spent in conslderin
it. The source which commanded mos
N attention, and towards which the tru
" tees aud their engineer looked mos
rs favorably, was Halls pond. This is
143-acre sheet of water, seven mll'
from St. Johnsbury and three miles b
vond Stiles pond, from which the Aqu
u duct Company gets its supply. II
- - pond in question is fed by springs with
- itself after the fashion of Willough'
- Lake, ensuring drinking water OF t
bu finest quality. The expense OF gettl
-. this water into the village is estimat
80 at S1O5, 900, this amount including sol
-. S35 900 required for tunneling
49, tance of about three thousand feet
w ~ tunnel being suggested in order to Sc
~ ~ nearly doubling the distance OF the p
ior line.
-. The trustees have also taken counsel
sv m to the rights of the village with refere
~ to contamination OF the river water

and the expense connected with that pro
cess.
The above presents an outline OF the
business in hand for the Friday evening
meeting, which begins at 7.3O. Every
body is interested. When the trustees
shall have submitted their report, it will
rest with the voters to say what shall De
done about getting that sort OF water
