Typhoid Fever and Cholera
EpidemicS Not Traceable
To the Water Cause.
A LONG INVESTIGATION.
RESULT OF EXPERIMENTS LEADS
TO STATEMENT WATER NEVER
HAS BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE
DISEASE.

Boston. Mass, Sept. 5.-That ,y-
not caused by polluted drinking water
is one of a number of statements in
book which the city of Lynn ispub-
fishing, and which will be issued this
week. The book was written by Ed
win F. Dwelley, Lynn engineer. who
last May was hired by the Lynn City
Council TO investigate the Lynn water
supply.
After four months of investigation.
Mr.. Dwelley. in go pages of type
written manuscript, claims that Lynn
is needlessly alarmed about the water;
that IL is perfectly healthfui and bet
ter than that which the metropolitan
system furnishes; that there is not
the slightest danger of an epidemic
from it. and that sanitation experts
have worked the epidemic bogey to
such an extent that cities and towns
have needlessly spent millions of dol
lars TO prevent what never existed.
Aeitated for Years.
The Lynn water supply has been a
subject of agitation for years. The
present water board favors Installing
a slow sand filtration plant TO improve
it, The board hired w. s. Johnson,
of Boston. an expert and former mem
Der of the State Board of Health, 70
investigate the supply. and his report
recommended filtration plant, saying
that the supply was always in danger
of contamination by typhoid germs and
might cause an epidemic Not salts
fed with this report, the City Council
hired Engineer Dwelley.
Dwelley's report, which is to be pub
lished in book form. because 1t is too
long to read aloud before the City
Council. attacks Johnson and other
sanitation experts. and goes at length
into the typhoid fever question. The
statement that water has never been
known to cause typhoid is backed up
at length.

NEW PROCESS
OF PHOTOGRAPH
Discovery Made by Partisan
Makes Perspective and
Relief Both Possible.
GLASSES ARE COMBINED.
INGENIOUS DEVICE WILL GO A
ONE OF THE GREATEST NEEDS
OF ART,

A process of photography which
gives both perspective and relief,
process which will not only give pho
Biography new possibilities, but which
will actually open new field both to
science and to art, has been discovered
by Professor Lippman of Paris, who
had already made himself famous by
inventions in connection with color
photography.
The construction of his photograph

presents many analogies with that of
the human eye and the eyes of man.
mails generally, but he compares it, for
ready understanding, to the stereo-
scope. The stereoscope is an optical
instrument for giving to pictures the
appearance of solid forms as seen in
nature. 1t combines in one, through
a bending of the rays of light, two pic
lures, taken for the purpose, from
points of view a little way apart. 1t
is furnished with two eye glasses, and
by refraction or reflection, the pictures
are superimposed so as to appear as
one to the observer.
Now the eye of the coleoptera is
composed of a great number of small
facets-praetically a multiplied stereo-
scope. Each facet reproduces the
whole of the object or landscape be-
fore it, but from its special angle Ia
ken together. they give the drop press,
which cuts it into the outline form of
spoon, though from this press it
comes out still flat.
Then in another press the bowl of
the spoon is formed. and then in still
another the handle, and so at last you
have the spoon in its complet spoon
shape, in steel, ready now to be tin
plated by dipping it in molten tin

some form OF sub-drainage must be
resorted to, usually tile drains, of clay
or concrete Water from whatever
source must be gotten rid of effective
ly, for water plus clay or gumbo in
variably equals mud when mixed in
spring and summer. Water becomes
ice in winter and as water in freezing
expands one-eighth it's volume, the
road heaves out of shape and when
the ice melts the road disappears be-
meath the rising tide of mud constant
ly fed by rains, melting SHOWS and
underground springs.
In seepy and Doggy places the sub
drainage in order to be fully effective
should lower the water level to not
less than three feet below the road
surface. If tiles are used they should
be carefully laid, true to grade Most
failures in tile drainage can be attrib-
uted to carelessness in laying, or too
flat grade. Tile less than inches in
diameter should rarely be used, nor
should grade of less than 6 inches
to the 100 feet be used unless absolu-
tely nece ssary. In a very dense soil,
it is always advisable to cover the
tile to at least depth of to II in
ches with coarse sand or fine gravel.
Care should always be taken to secure
a free outlet for the drains and to pro-
tect the outlet with a concrete bulk
head or catchbasin, which can always
be kept clean and the outlet free.
The kind of tile to be used depends
on local conditions. Concrete tile if
properly made are equally as good as
clay tile. Which kind to use is en-
tirely a local question of dollars and
cents. If concrete tile can be made
more cheaply than clay tile can be had
use concrete; if not, use clay tile.
One great advantage of the concrete
tile is that they can be easily made
by the local users at or near the place
where they are to be placed, so that
the freight charges are dispensed with
as well as the large breakage losses
due to handling. Placed in the ground
both are durable. If concrete is used
great care should be taken, to see that
a good grade of Portland cement is
selected, and that the drains are prop
erly constructed. The impression
which prevails to some extent. that
tile disintegrates is erroneous.
A bulletin is now in course of pre-
paration by the United States office
of public roads telling how to make
concrete drains. This bulletin will
treat the subject fully, explaining
carefully every point that may arise
in making drain pipes and culverts.

Ten Commandments of Road
Builder May Be Summed Up
SuccinctIy in One Small
Mord drainage"
MANY THINGS MUST BE
TAKEN INTO FORETHOUGHT
Bulletin Now in Preparation by
United States Office of Pub
lie Roads Tells About Con-
crete Drains.

With an average of $4,000 tons of
water falling in the form of rain on
each mile of public road in the United
States annually, it is scarcely to be
marvelled at that the ten command
ments of the road builder can be sum-
med up succinctly in the word drain
age
The saying has truth for a basis, as
good drainage is the primary requisite
for all roads. Even in sand roads this
holds true, for there good drainage
means such as will safely reomve the
storm water without erosion or gully
tng and still retain the surface mois-
ture.
To secure good drainage one must
take into consideration both the sur
face water and the underground wat
er. The surface water must be re-
moved quickly and completely Nand
without subjecting the road to eXces-
sive scour or erosion. For this reason,
the center of the road should be rails
ed and the slope towards the side
bitches should be from one-half to one
dnch to each foot distance, or so that
the water will run freely to the side
bitches and not flow down the road
pr remain in puddles on the roadway.
The side bitches should be of ample
Size to care for the severest storms
with fall of not less than 6 inches
TO each 100 feet Frequent and am
pie cross drains should be construct
ed and every opportunity taken TO
get the water away from the road as
quickly as possible. ANY road Along
which you see water standing in the
side bitches or on which puddles of
water have collected or which has
been badly quilted and eroded by the
rains has poor drainage and is in need
Of Immediate attention. In fact earth
roads nearly always require a little
attention after each rain. The split
log drag is essentially & tool to main
tain good drainage on our earth roads
and should be used after each rain
On a heavy clay or gumbo soil the
drag when properly used tends to pud-
die the road surface, keep ii free from
ruts, dense, smooth and hard, thus
securing the best surface drainage
possible.
But in many places the underground
water is too near the surface and
must be removed before a good road
will be possible. This means that

SHOWING PROGRESS
Costa RIGA Most Progressive
State Between Mexico
And Panama.
BETTER TRADE CONDITIONS

Figures lately made available show
that Costa RIGA is the most progress
sive and prosperous state between
Mexico and Panama. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that of the 100000 in
habitants of Central America only
$4,000 dwell in the orderly little re-
public of Costa RIGA, this state is
credited with 80 per cent of the for
eign commerce of the five Central
American republics, which now
amounts to some s53,000,O0O, gold val
ue. Guatemala, with six times as
many people as Costa Rica, ranks be-
low her in foreign trade.
The per capita of foreign commerce
done in the Central American coun-
tries is as follows:
Guatemala 500
nicaragua 13.5U
honduras lU.0O
Costa R1ca 5000
This tells the story of trade condi-
tons in Central America, and the rec
ord of Costa RIGA will commend that
country to the attention of tho outside
world.

NEW RECORD IN
WORK ON CANAL
Immense Quantity of Dirt Re-

The grand total of Panama Canal
excavation during the month of July
was S,16S,S40 cubic yards, all of which
except 122.SS4 cubic yards was taken
from the Canal prism. This estab-

the rainy season, being 10S,533 cubic
yards more than the record for June.
and 311,43o cubic yards short of the
highest dry season record, that of
March, 1908. Compared with July,
1907, it shows an increase of 2.1O5.-
