"OUR" WATER PLANT
AND IT'S ABUSES
There is Even Less to be Gained by
Imposing on the City Than There
Would be a Private Cooperation.

The result of the first months col
lections of water rentals by the city
was most flattering. all things consid-
cred. There were less than twenty ac-
tual water users who permitted them
selves to go delinquent and make
themselves amenable to the 81 fee for
turning on the water again.
The water department officers are
now offering a protest against the
conduct of a great many citizens who
seem to have an erroneous idea Of
what municipal ownership means.
They seem to think that since the wa
ter belongs to the city and the people
are the city. that the people who have
paid their rental can do as they please
with the water. They assume a per-
sonal proprietary interest in the mat
ter that in their own minds rescinds
all the regulations made by the coun-
ell for the use of water. In the first
place they insist on sprinkling from a
hose without a nozzle, a violation of
the ordinance and bad enough in its
way. But IL is not nearly so bad as
lot of other people are said to be do
ing. They open up the faucets and let
them run into the irrigating bitches,
thus doing with the city water what is
supposed to be done by the canal wa
ter and the zanjero. They seem to
think its our water. we have helped
buy it, and the only way to get our
moneys worth is to use all we can
OF it"
That sort of conduct will not be toll
Grated If the water users are caught at
it, for il is designed to handle the wa
ter just as economically as though it
were owned by a private corporation
There Is now more real reason for
using the water properly than there
was before for formerly. if there was
deficit ii was private corporation
that stood II. Now if the water should
be wastefully used II will go back to
the tax payers themselves. While it
is "our water" We are using when we
need ii, it is also our water that is
being wasted when it is improperly
used.
The water department is engaged in
building a new oil tank at the water
plant. which will have a storage ca
pacity of $4,000 gallons of fuel oil. The
tank is being constructed of brick and
concrete.

portance were contaminated there. 1t
was at the Fifth Avenue hotel In 1867
that the movement to nominate Grant
for the presidency was started. and as
politicians came to frequent the place.
many a plot was Matched in its cor
ridors, even before the amen Cor
ner'' was established by republican
politicians in the heyday of Thomas c.
Platt's success as leader. Grant was
sheltered by it's roof, as was every
other republican president since Lin
coin. foreigners of note. men OF let
tiers, and men and women famous in
many other fields. When the Prince
OF Wales, now King Edward VII Of
England. visited New York on his
American tour, 1t was at the Fifth
Avenue that he stopped. The first
regiment of volunteers recruited for
the Union army at the outbreak Of
the civil war stopped there on its way
south from New England, and after
that, all through the war. military and
naval officers and civil leaders made
the place rendezvous. In 1887
Prince Devowongse of the Simese roy
a. house, and four sons of the king OF
Siam dined at its tables and received
guests in one - its most luxurious
suites. The first passenger elevator
i'm New York was installed there, and
tablet now marks the site. Just off
the main corridor. Now the least in
teresting thing to note about the
change. is the rise in real estate val
ues indicated by the price, s7,250, 900,
for which the hotel has just been sold.
This is almost double what il brought
when the Emo estate was settled up
twelve years ago.
Great fortunes II is said, have been
founded on so slender n basis as a
common pin; but II has remained for
the Salvation Army to finance q great
charity with waste paper. Expert
ments in running its Industrial Home
without cash contributions were so
successful in several scattered build
irgs in West Thirtieth street, however
that the army felt justified in erecting.

building on West Forty eighth street,
which was formally opened last week.
where II handles old newspapers,
magazines. letters and books. Wagons
waste paper OF all kinds from private
houses and offices, bundle it into bags,
and convey II to the home. Here men
out of employment separate the paper
according to grade. The sorting Is
done on the first floor and the paper
thrown down chutes to the main floor
where il is baled and shipped to mills
in which most of 1t is reduced to pulp
ard rolled out again into coarse wrap
ping paper. Old books are retained
for while to give dealers and anti
qUarians a chance to bid on them be-
fore they are sent to the macerating
watts. and occasionally the collectors
get discarded furniture, which is also
sold.> In addition to the paper sorting
equipment. there is ample room in the
building for housing the workers.
There are large dormitory, q commo-
dious dining room, and a reading,
clothes and exchange room. all fitted
up after the most approved methods.
Shower baths and porcelain basins,
with open plumbing fixtures. are pro-
vided b. the score. In addition to
boarding and lodging the 200 inmates,
it Is expected to pay them a moderate
wage besides.
