A BOWERY DRINKING FOUNTAIN.
IT'S Great and varied PatrOnsge-The n
striking Feature Of Its 0wn.

Its Great n varied One
striking Feature OF Its Own.
In the Bowery, at 222, standing at the
inner edge OF the sidewalk and directly In
front Of the building Of the Young Mems
Institute Of the Young Mems Christian
Association Is a drinking fountain that has
perhaps as many patrons as any similar
fountain In the city and it Ia doubtful IL any
has a patronage more varied.
The Bowery is a busy street, night and
day, as it is a thoroughfare for people
OF many n~ationalties, and men, women and
children stop here to drink, and so in hot
weather this fountain is surrounded and
kept almost constantly busy. The water
that flows from it is, OF course, Croton. 1t
Is run through an ice packed coil in the base
ment Of the building. so that it always comes
cool and agreeable.
1t is a very simple fountain this, like a
rather tall iron post. with the usual basin
cast attached TO Il under the faucet to catch
the drip, and with q faucet OF the pinch
sort, that shuts on the flow when You let
20 the handles. There is a little orna-
mental knob at the top OF the post.
A very simple fountain, blu there Is one
thing about It's equipment that may be
surprising when IL catches the eye, though
It may, as well, please the fancy. Com
monty The drinking vessels attached to
drinking fountains in public places are iron
cups or bowls attached to the fountain by
a chain, so that they dan't be broken and
can't be stolen; but the drinking vessel
here provided bs a glass, a tumbler, which
IL not secured to the fountain In any way
but Is just placed there, free, for anybody
TO pick UP and use.
It was thought when the fountain was
started some fifteen years ago, h Ia a
glass would be cleaner and nicer to drink
out Of Nc so a glass was provided, and
che fountain has been kept supplied with
glasses ever since. The stranger to the
Bowery might think that putting out a
piece Of easily portable property IN this
way was like an Invitation TO steal II, and
thus the number OF glasses lost by theft
must be large, but such has not BEEN the
experience Of the institute authorities.
Glasses are sometimes stolen, and glasses
are broken and m either case they simply
put out a fresh glaze, but, says Secretary
Baldwin Of the institute, the number lost
by theft h extremely small; when com-
pared with the great number OF people
drinking at the fountain il Is i~nfniteeinal.
So practically" the glasses hero put out
are respected by all, whatever anybody
might think as likely to happen to them.
safety was insured by the realization that
they were IN a way common property,
or "A something Tor the common good, the
fact appears TO be that they are at least "a
safe here IN the BOvery n glasses put out
in like manner would be anywhere eise.
The Institute drinking fountain was set
up and kept going in his lifetime with
money provided by the late Abner W.
Colgate, who at his death, left q fund for
its maintenance.

The difficulties between France ana

withdrawing NJ. Taigny, the charge
d'affaires of the French legation, to-
gether with all the others connected
with the mission.
After sundry conferences with the
French ambassador President Roose-
welt has decided that the United States
government shall look after Frances
interests in Venezuela.
France is eXasperated with the atti-
II ii of President Castro. and serious
results may follow. The United States
legation will probably look after French
interests wien the French mission at
Caracas is abolished.
Mr.. Russell, the American minister
at Caracas, has been instructed to take

the government of Venezuela. The
claim amounts to some hundreds of
thousands of dollars, and it is regarded
as Il very just demand by the state de-
partment.
The present breach in the diplomatic
relations between France and Venezu-
ella is technically c%hargeable against
the personality of NJ. Taigny, the
French charge ut Caracas, but the real
issue is the attack by President Castro
upon the properties and franchise OF
the French Gable company.
The climax came on New Years day,
when the French government. suppos-
ing that a satisfactory settlement had
been reached. received with the usual
honors of the New Year day reception
the Venezuelan minister at Paris, only
to learn that President Castro had re-
fused to do likewise for NJ. Taigny at
Caracas.
This omission touched the pride of
the French government, which cit it
had been made the victim of double
dealing and deceit, which fact the
French ambassador in Washington was
not slow to communicate to the state
department. Mr.. Russell. the Ameri-
can minister, failed to effect a settle
ment, thereby making himself unpopu-
lar in Caracas, and then came notice
from the French government that dip
lomatic relations with Venezuela were
completely severed. There is Il hint of
punitive measures on the part of
France, and the situation is regarded
officially as very unpleasant, with pos
sibilities of serious consequences.
