THE NATIONS NEWSPAPERS.


 The growth in newspaper publishing in the United States zhas been one of the wonders of a free and untrammeled press. According to the latest authori- tative. information there were 22.312 publications of all classes issued in the United States last year, or one for about every 5000 population. This in cludes weekly, monthly and quarterly periodicals aes well as daily news papers. Of this latter were 2377, while of weekly publications the number was 16,152, and of monthlics 2550. The gain for the year was 3s dailies, 34 weeklies and 1 monthly. The total gain in num- ber of publications was S9. or four tenths of 1 per cent. <
 In New York and the Middle States there were 67 fewer publications than in the preceding year; in the Southern States 4S more, and in the Western States a gain of 70. The loss in the older sections was pretty evenly dis tributed between the various classes of publications, as was the gain in the South and West. Many thousand years ago the wise man wrote 'sof making many books there is no end.' In this latter day he would have included and magazines. Colum- bus Journal. >te-

IMPROVEMENTS
By Water Company atssaltonstall Lake


 By Water Company atsaltonstall Lake t's Plant. { 3#5*ls
 The New Haven Water company has just completed improvements upon the saltonstall pumping station, involving the expenditure of s50,000. New inter- nally fired boilers made at the BigeloW shops, more convenient and economi- cal in use, have been installed. These improved boilers can carry a pressure of l60 pounds, while the capacity of the old boilers was only 100 pounds.
 The, company has also installed a D'Auria pump, invented by an Italian army officer, with capacity of 10,O0O,o00 gallons in twenty-four hours, and which can be worked up to 15,QO0,O00 gallons. The old pump with 6,000,000 gallons capacity will be held in reserve. These Improvements will greatly facil- itate pumping at the lake and increase the output of water to a great extent.
