Since then the rate has been gradu-

Arguments viii be brought up against

q community is too GREAT. On the eon-
trarv il is the sacred duty Of the gov

Second. it Is not certain that the
Nuuanu valley water IS pure or that it
can be kept pure. The death rate from
fevers is abnormallv high in Honolulu
and would he much higher were il not
for the fact that large proportion of
the people use boiled water for domestic
purposes
Another fact worth considering is
that if the valley water were filtered
there would be no need OF preserving
the watershed for that sole purpose.
All the rich and attractive lands in the
upper part Of the valley could be con
verted into delightful suburban home
steads. the Pail road could be lined with
attractive villas like Luakaha and the

on the other hand, without filtration,
had typhoid fever death rates during
this period of $50 and 81 per ten
thousand. respectively. This shows
clearly that great safeguard against
water carried diseases IS afforded by
scientifically sand filtration.
Ashland Wis, with a population of
u. 600. installed a sand filter after an
epidemic of typhoid fever. It cost
about $40, 900, and reduced the annual
death rate 80 per cent. the first year.
Who would dispute the value Of sueh an
investment
Instances of the life-saving efficiency
of filtration can be multiplied indefi-
nitelv. but those already cited prove
the point ] wish TO make. namely, that
wherever filters have been installed the
deaths from enterie diseases have been
reduced enormously.

The Imperative necessity Of filter

markedly shown by the filtration Of

NEW TYPE OF AMERICAN LOCOMOTIVE

In locomotive now being built for
the Southern Pacific railroad it seems
as If an entirely new system of trac-
ton had been devised, and II SO, the
long-expected revolution" will be at
hand.
The new locomotive is an internal
combustion motor of a type used
hitherto only for stationary engine
work.
Its application to locomotive trac-
ton, however, is practically simply
stationary engine work. For 1t will
not drive the machinery Of a locomo-
tive; IT will simply operate dynamos.
which will work the machinery.
Thus the new locomotive will be
an electric engine. but II will be self
contained, and not dependent on the
trolley or the third rail for its power.
There will then be no chance Of the
trolley leaving the wire or the shoe
slipping from the rail at inopportune
moments.
In this new machine there will be
no coal and water to carry. no tender
to drag; there win be no fire and no
smoke will pour from its smokestack
Its builders say that with a clear
track 1t can run from New York to
San Francisco. drawing a 2000-ton
train without stop. The few gal

The American Forest congress well

joint discussion of all the interests de-
pendent upon the forests The con-
Eress was pre-eminently represen-
tative OF the numbering. mining and
grazing industries. of the railroads
and Of irrigation. Practically every

sumers OF forest products were rep

ply will last for run OF 5000 miles.
The action OF the new engine is
known as the four stroke cycle. There
is compressed air reservoir. which
provides the power 10 start the en-
gine. This gives the piston its first
stroke, when 1t takes in air The
second stroke congresses this air to
high pressure, producing a temper
ature of about 1000 degrees Fahren-
heit-
On the third stroke oil is sprayed
into this hot air, and combustion
takes places. This third stroke is
called the working stroke, and it af-
fects the action Of the dynamos.
The fourth and last stroke exhausts
the gases.
In theory the engine is perfect. Its
builder says 1t will equal or excel the
speed attained by the German cleo
trio locomotive. which ran from Mari
