BRoOKLyy,S WATER SUPPLY.

There is at present no occasion to fear a water
famine In Brooklyn. There is q shortage of
supply, and it has been deemed wise to reduce
the pressure and to curtail the use of water for
some purposes; but the reduction of pressure is
not designed so much to lessen use as to lessen
waste large proportion of the taps in Brook
lyn, as in Manhattan, leak a little under full
pressure. because Of faulty plumbing or worn
out washers. Such slight trickling from tap
OF two may seem TO a householder an insignif-
cant trife. Multiplied by tens of thousands, it
means vast waste of water. Under reduced
pressure this leakage will in many cases be
stopped and in all cases 1t will be decreased, yet
when the taps are opened an ample supply of
water will issue, though a little more slowly
than of old.
The situation is probably not as bad as it has
been IN some former years Nevertheless. it is
such as calls for Scrupulous care on the part Of
the public in avoiding waste, and it furnishes a
potent argument for all possible expedition in
the work Of the new water commission. AL
most every summer for the last twenty years
there has been talk of a water famine in Brook
lyn. There has never been famine, though
there has often been a scarcity. But of late
conditions have undisguisedy been approaching
q crisis. That is because there are in that bor
ough an increasing population and a non-in-
oreasng water supply. The recent growth Of
Brooklyn has been rapid, and # is likely to be
in the next few years still more rapid Yet both
natural and artificial circumstances prevent the
extension of the water supply system. Practi-
caly all available sources in the western coun-
ues of Long Island have been fully utilized, and
a law forbids the invasion of Suffolk County.
Brooklyn must therefore look for a further
supply from the mainland, by way of Manhat-
tan The Bronx. 1t must be provided with
water from somewhere up the State, in COM
mon with the boroughs on this side of the East
River. That is why it behooves the new water
Commissioners to move with judicious celerity
in the great enterprise which has been commit
ted to them. They are working not only for
Manhattan and The Bronx, whose requirements
are great. but also for Brooklyn, whose need is
particularly pressing.

THE RIGHT OF PRTRACy.

The highest court OF Georgia has recently
handed down a decision which must be of con-
siderable interest to New-Yorkers, in view of
the great attention attracted TO a similar nt-
CATION in this State a few years ago which
ended in a different way. One of the note
worthy opinions of Alton B. Parker when he
Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals was
that in the case of Robertson against the Roch-
ester Folding Box Company. Miss Robertson
young woman in private life, whose pict-
ure. taken solely for her friends and never
published by her, was reproduced for advertis-
Ing purposes without her consent. She brought
action for infringement of her right of privacy
Justice Davy, of Rochester. gave judgment in
her favor. and he was unanimously sustained by
the Appellate Division, but the Court of APP
peals by a vote of four to three, reversed the
decision. Chief Judge Parker. writing the opin-
ion. held that no right Of privacy existed ex-
cept such as could be protected by the law of
libel. No equitable relief could be afforded for
the patent outrage, and, if the evil was 10 be re-
formed, it could only be by legislation. Judge
Gray wrote a vigorous dissenting opinion. con-
Cured in by two other judges, In which he up
held the young woman's right of property in her
own likeness. Now the Georgia court takes
the same view in the case OF Pavesich against
the New w-England Life Insurance Company.

Pavesieh, who was a good looking, well set up
man, and published II In a newspaper beside
