A Rochester Sanitary Fountain.

BY Beeknnan c. Little, Superintendent
Water Bureau, Rochester, N. Y.
At a cost of but few. dollars
apiece, any or all fire hydrants can
be utilized during the summer
months as sanitary drinking foun-
tains without impairing their useful
ness as aids in fire fighting or street
sprinkling, or the like. This method
is employed in Rochester:
On one of the fire hydrant nozzles
is screwed an extension nipple which
has an upright service pipe, equipped
with a small valve. A sanitary
drinking fountain is connected to this
upright service and a small waste
pipe is extended down and out to the
curb, or street gutter, which is gen
orally close to the hydrant. The water
is left turned on into the hydrant-
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-07-26

all of the nozzle caps of the hydrant
being screwed up tightly to prevent
leaking and the small valve is adj
justed so that the proper amount of
water is served to the fountain.
After the adjustment is made the key
to the valve is removed, so that there
is no incentive, or at least no way,
for the user to tamper with the flow
Of water.
We even think it wise to let a small
steam run continually and remove
the rabbit ears from the. faucet in
the fountain itself, as these faucets
do get out of order with constant use,
even if not meddled with, destroyed,
or stolen, and we have suffered in
all these ways.
Of course in cold weather these
fountains would haYe1tos be given up

badly injured. So far as could be
learned last night this was the ex-
tent of the fatalities, but there will
undoubtedly be others.
Calls for physicians came from all d.
rections and ell of the ambulances in
the city were sent to gather up the
wounded who could not be located. At
IL o'clock these names were reported
from the various hospitals where they
had been taken:
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Hannah and
daughter.
William Poole and Miss Poole.
Mrs. Baker.
Mr.. Messmore and two daughters.
Mrs. Bishop.
All of these injured were gathered up

its destructive power, but even then
seemed unable to grasp the fact that
awful devastation rode with the wind.
Firemen were first to realize the con-
dition that existed, for calls from
dozens OF alarm boxes n from many
surviving telephones came piling in In
Il confusion that was b~ewildering. But
soon the department was set at its
task, and the work of rescue was un-
der way.
Damage Beyond Understanding.
AS minutes wore into hours, the ter
ror Of the storms work grew. Electric
phones in the stricken section were
not working, streets were blockaded by
debris, and torrents Of rain poured to
obscure the search. Many wild rumors
were afloat, Int no w to quickly
verify them. Careful search was soon
organized. The city police department
was taxed to its utmost, and later the
companies OF Nebraska national guard
stationed in Omaha were called into
service that aid might be given as
quickly as possible, and that whatever
of order might be restored could be
had.
So extensive and so complete Is the
wreck. and so difficult the task of get
ting the exact facts, that only guesses
can be made, as to the extent of the
calamity, The loss Of life will mount
we'll into the hundreds; the number of
injured will be still greater. while the
property loss will be millions.

Omaha, Neb., March 25.-Between
lao and 200 killed, twice that number
badly injured and hundreds of thous-
ands OF dollars worth Of property de-
stroyed, briefly tell the story of the
tornado which swept throughout oma-
ha and its suburbs at 6 o'clock Sunday
evening in an almost straight pathway
four to six blocks wide and more than
eight miles long. 1t was by far the
most appalling catastrophe that yer
visited Omaha. Through the stricken
districts the streets are filed with
masses of debris from wrecked houses
and uprooted trees and tangled electric
wires, making street car movements
impossible, wagon and automobile
travel almost so and Offering serious
obstacles to pedestrians.
The list of dead, although already a
long one, is believed by those who have
been over a good part Of the devastated
territory to be but a beginning.

watching the turkey eggs, picking up
