CITY OF FOUNTAINS.
Rome Found by Agrippa a Parched
iberan Town But Left It Watered.

1t was said Of Augustus that he
found Rome of brick and left it OF
marble; but the real builder of Rome
was the man who found it parched
Iberian town, and left ii with the song
of the fountains splashing through it's
streets. 1t was Agrippa who first con-
ceived the idea of bringing the waters
of the mountains into Rome. He built
two aqueducts 80 reservoirs, and no
less than 200 fountains, most of which
remain until this day. The work was
continued by his successors, until, III
Trajan's time. the city possessed no
less than 10 aqueducts and 1900 foun-
tains.
SO Rome became the city of foun-
tains, and so she remained until the
Gothic invaders broke the majestic
piers of the aqueduets, and the splash
of the waters which Horace had heard
and loved, ceased to sound in the de-
serted streets. Nothing in all Italy.
not the very walls of Rome, nor the
grim remnant of st. Angelo, palace,
prison and fortress, is more somberly
magnificent than the mighty lines of
the aqueducts crossing the solitude of
the Campagna toward the city; and
nothing, when YOU enter the city. is
more delightful than the ceaseless
song of the fountains which, after 10
centuries of desolation, the popes gave
back to Rome.
