ming to Furnish Lnurcns with Pure
Water.
Announcement was made last week
by the .ity waterworks and electric
light commission that bids would be
let November End for the new water
works plant contemplated when the
bond issue Of $4,000 was voted sew
eral months ago Plans for the new
plant have been drawn by w. NJ. Piatt,
municipal engineer, of Durham, \. c.,
who has been employed by the COM
mission as it's engineer
The plans Of the new plant, asa out
lined several days ago by ". r. Nc
Cuen, chairman OF the commission, in
cludc a new filtration plant, a storage
reservoir Of $4,000 gallons capacity,
accessory equipment and certain
changes in the source Of supply which
will eliminate the possibility OF con-
tamination to the minimum.
The new filtration plant and resor-
voir arc to be built adjacent to the
present waterworks plant on proper
ty already owned by the city The
water will be pumped from the main
stream Of the creek instead Of from
the canal which has previously furn-
ishcd the supply. The canal will be
retained as an important part Of the
water system, acting as protection
to the main supply by carrying off the
surface water which has caused mucl
speculation as to contamination in tho
past.
Two new pumps OF 750 gallons ca
pacity per minute will be installed a
the source of supply to carry the wa
| ter, to the main plant. After passing
| through the clarifying process here
4 the water will be pumped by two 9th
} cr pumps Of l ,250 gallons per minute
: to the stand-piDe. In cases Of emer
gency or where the pumps at tn
creek get out Of order, the stand-pip
!, and reserve reservoir may be calle
on to supply water to the extent O
100000 gallons without being replen
ished from the creek. The plant vii
8 have capacity of 100000 gallons G
T. water per day and will be construct
:. cd in such manner that the capacit
can be doubled if necessary.
The entire system will be moder
in every respect, said Mr. NcCuel
and will take care Of the needs of tn
: city for many years to come. It's in
tial cost, he said, may be larger tha
. the commission first anticipated b,
Il the cost could not be materially II
>f duced without sacrificing importaI
y features which the engineer consit
cred vital in securing an adequate an
a. safe supply.

EX'NDEuE MISERY.
and Greeks and Armenians have pass
cd from this city to the west since Sat
urday, and the road between here and
the Martha river is an unbroken line
OF men, women and children with OK
carts, cattle and camcls.
Through steady downpour of raiT'
they are going doggedly toward their
unknown destinations, driven forward
by the nameless fear.which has grip
ped the whole poDulace of eastern
Thrace since the governments bulle-
tins were posted on Saturday an
nouncing the terms Of the Mudania ar
mstice, which provide for occupation
of the province by the Turks within
10 days.
The members Of the Allied missions
stationed here declare the extent Of
the refugee exodus indicates that the
Turks upon their entry will find east
ern Tbrace almost uninhabitcd.
The procession has been orderly
but the misery Of the refugees is al
claim many victims if the present in
clement weather continues. The AM
crican in charge OF the little Near
East relief soup kitchen at the rail
way junction on the opposite side OF
the Martha declared:
IN all my experience never imag-
incd such a pitiable sight as the march
from Adrianople in the driving rain.
Every refugee arrives soaked to skin,
with wagon load of bedding floating
in water" -
Perhaps never in the 1900 years of
its stormy history, not even in the days
of the late Balkan wars, has Adrian
ople witnessed such scenes. q
When, on Saturday, the Greek civil
authorities attempted to reassure the
people by stating that the Turkish
gendarmerie would not arrive for ,15
days, the Christian inhabitants simply
refused to believe them. Nearly every
Christian family in Adrianople gather
ed uD all they could carry, either on
their backs or on OK carts and as soon
as possible were off.
Meanwhile from the countryside 8
similar exodus Is under way and every
road leading to the Martha is jammet
with humanity, cattle and wagons
This whole flood converges upon &
single road as 1t approaches the Kar.
. agatch bridge across the Martha. The
refugees believe that if they can reacl
Karagatch they will be safe from tn,
Turks. This small~village, which II
just across the boundary, will be il
neutral territory until the peace con
ference decides it's fate.
A Reserted City
Meanwhile, Adrianople has taken OF
the appearance Of a deserted city
with the shops and houses closed
The Greek and Armenian priests re

work in assisting the fleeing inhab
itants.
Two troop trains leave daily 70
