Water Supply Of Good Quality.

Sis of the different municipal supplies i'm
the State las just made one of the Car
diner water. In his report he says:
THE analysis shows this water Ia be in
good condition to be used for drinking.
The water seems to be in better condition
than when examined in the spring and
summer. as the turbidity has practically
disappeared and the organic material is
less. This latter will increase with tine
advent of the fall rains. but with the re-
cent care of the shores of the watershed
the water should show no i'll effects from

1t is pleasing to all the citizens who
use the water to know that it is 50 whole
some. 1t is much better than many public
supplies, and the good health Gardiner
has enjoyed since the works were put in
is an evidence that the water is free from
injurious contamination
In connection with this another anaIv-
sis he made may be of interest A fam
lily who thought the city water not good
enough to drink used the water from a
well. as it seemed to he better The man
of the house thought he would make sure
of it and sent a sample for analysis The
report he got back was that cit is not
safe one to use, for drinking purposes.
as it shows evidence of recent sewage
pollution both in the chemical and bacte-
rial analyses. The use of this water
should be discontinued" All the wells
about the city may be looked upon with
suspicion, even if the water does look
well and taste well.

VETERAN IN THE SERVICE.
Was Fifty-Seyen Years Old and
Had Served Thrty-Six
Years as Fireman.
Blaze Started in Canal Street Building
And Spread Rapidly to Surrounding
Structurcs-Loss $4,000.

New York. Feb. 14.--Deputy Chief
Charles w. Kruger, known for many
years as the Grand Old Man" of he
fire department, lost his life today
while leading his men in desperate
fight against flames in Canal street
While working his way cautiously
through a cellar filled with smoke and
gases Kruger plunged through a trap
door into sub-basement filled with
water He was dead when taken out
but in the few minutes that elaased
between the time he fell and his body
was drawn out, more than a score OF
men Rad risked their own lives in an
effort to save that of their leader
ALWAYS IN THE LEAD.
'T knew Il would happen this way"
said one of kruger's men, when the
chiefs body was being carried away
~ have been to many fires with him.
He was always in the lead. He never
said, Boy, 60 into that place or this
place, he always led us himself. He
said, Boys, follow me, and that is
just what he said this time when he
led us into that basement, Boys, follow
me- 1t was Just as many of us ex-
pected. We have often said that the
old man would be killed at a fire lead
ing his men,"
AN OLD FIREFIGHTER
Kruger was 81 years old and had been
a member of the department for SO
years. Several years ago Kruger was
acting chief of the department for
time while Chief Croker was temporar-
lily under suspension.
The fire in which the deputy chief
lost his life started at 217 Canal street
and before 1t could be subdued ii swept
that building from basement to roof,
spread to two buildings adjoining, rout-
ed the tenants from several tenement
houses in Baxter street and threatened
the church of the Most Precious Blood.
1t was after the flames in the upper
part of the building had been controlled
that Kruger had taken his men to the
basement. A great pile of excelsior Ia
bales was blazing furiously and an at
tempt 10 reach It was the arrangement
that had been unsuccessful.
LED HIS MEN.
Kruger asked permission of Chief
Croker to take his men through the
basement and cut hole in the wall to
217 where the fire was thicSest Croker
consented, and a moment later, with a
dozen men behind him, Kruger plunged
into the cellar. The place was filled
with smoke and the deadly fumes of
illuminating gas which flowed from
broken or melted pipes, but the men
pressed cautiously forward in the dark
ness. Just in the middle of the cellar
Kruger stepped on a trap and plunged
into six feet of water in the sub-base-
ment. Then began desperate fight
In the gas-fllled cellar to save the chief.
He could do little to help himself, how
ever and when Battalion Chief Calvin
plunged into the dark hole and raised
Kruger's body above the surface, he
was unconscious.
1t required the combined efforts OF
20 firemen, weakened as they were by
breathing smoke and gas, to draw Gal
vim, who still chung to KrUger's body,
from the pit.
The property loss as a result Of the
fire is placed at $4,000.

LINCOLN DAY 1909.
Governor Cutler Says II May be Made a
Legal Holiday.

Most OF the dozen or so pupils OF
the city schools who addressed COM
munications TO Governor Cutler, asking
that Lincoln's birthday be declared a
legal holiday, have again written to the
executive, thanking him for the at
tentlon given TO their other letters.
This time the writer's suggest that the
one hundredth anniversary OF the birth
Of the immortal Lincoln Feb. ~, 1909,
be set apart as a legal holiday
Governor Cutler fully endorses tho
attitude OF his young correspondents,
Speaking of the matter today he said
Il am heartily In sympathy with the
idea OF making this day legal holi-
day and II IL very probable that the
state legislature, which meets In Jan
uary. 1909, will take the action neces-
sary to declare II a holiday. II would
be a fitting recognition OF the great
service OF Abraham Lincoln to the ma
ton.
IT Ia very gratifying to see the in
terest tho children are taking IN this
matter; as II indicates that the schools
are giving to Lincoln deserved credit
for his work In saving the Union"
