Undetermined distances, one above

electrical contrivance connected Win
an indicator-board either on the
bridge or in some other convenient
place. The board is fitted with num-
her of small glow lamps OF different
colors, and is connected with an alarm
bell. When the water rises to the
level of the lowest box, it makes an
electrical contact by which the lamp
