IMPORTANT TALK
ON SEWERAGE

city Councilman William P. White,
Of the Eighth Ward has received from
Alexander Patten. consulting engineer.
Of New York, a copy Of a paper on
Advance in Sewage Publication" read
by the latter before the League of
American Municipalities, recently in
session at Chicago.
Sewage publication. says the engi-
neer is OF comparatively recent origin.
Interest in the subject began much ear
lier in England and Europe than in
this country. made more necessary
probably by reason OF the fact that in
the older countries population is much
more dense, cities much closer together.
the rivers and streams small, and the
water sources restricted and hence
more liable to pollution"

LIFE IN THE EAST.

captain Porter says the great hotels In
the TAR cast are a revelation and 4
dream, and conducted on scale OF
magniiicance not TO be thought OF west
OF Chicago. AT one OF the New York
hotels the dinner plates cost sl2 each,
ana the ordinary cafe noir cups are
bordered whit gold, and the entire ser
vice Is made to correspond. II COSTS
something to eat at these magnificent;
hostelries. The charge fr cup OF
coffee is % cents, and the cream Is 10
cents, a turkey large enough for four
people costs $40, Captain Porter was
much Impressed with the cost OF living
in the east, and says that sl25 per
month h little enough for a man to
expend In just what he ought to have.
Three nov hotels are IN process OF
erection IN Nov York, each one OF
which could swallow up all the larger
hotels In salt Lake city. The far west
cannot hope for such immense and cost
~ hotels for many years TO come.
captain Porter said the evidences OF
prosperity In the east are unmlstakabe,
and money seems to be IN plenty. But
AT the same time he IL perfectly con-
tented 10 remain at home In salt Lake.

was pure myth. OF course the quest
Asia was abandoned IN the light OF
subsequent discovery, but the spirit OF
adventure and the determination 10 find
an open passage remained. In 1918
England renewed the search, this time
inspired by the laudable purpose OF
completing the geographical survey OF
the western continent. In the light OF
the present achievement OF Captain
Amundsen 1t is interesting to note that
30 astute navigator as Sir John Ross,
who passed four winters In these frozen
waters, persisted In the belief that
there was no northwest passage.
The loss of the Franklin expedition
and the efforts to clear UP the mys-
terious tragedy put "a stop for nearly
half century to all active effort to ex-
plore the great archipelago north OF
the American continent. Perhaps the
most noteworthy scientific result Of the
various search expeditions In quest Of
Franklin survivors was the discovery
Of another northwest passage not the
