Congress has appropriated $14,000 for a new brick addition to the Brightwood Pub- le School. It will have four rooms, fin- ished with the most modern conveniences, thus allowing a room to each of the eight grades. The work will be comntenced early in the spring. The report should be corrected that Dr. C. G. Stone, in a runaway accident, which occurred last week, was struck by one of the electric cars. Not only was the doctor not struck by the car, but, on the con- trary, was saved from severe injury by the diligent efforts of Motorman Lloyd. The row of brick houses on Illinois avenue, Brightwood Park, which Mr. Dil- ler Groff has been building during the past month, are now completed. Two have been sold and four rented. Mr. Groff expects to erect six more adjacent to these as soon as the weather permits. At the meeting of Stansbury Lodge, No. 24, F. A. A.

DISEASE IN WATER Dr. Mason’s Lecture on the Necessity of Filtration Discussed and Some Ex- amples of Close Connection Between Drinking Water and Typhoid. It is not to be doubted that if Congress had been present Wednesday night at the meeting cf the Medical Society am appro- pridtion for the widest possible extension of the water supply would have been im- mediately voted. Dr. Wm. P. Mason of Trey, N. ¥., gave a most instructive talk, illustrated by lantern slides, to demonstrate the effect of drinking water upon health. Perhaps Congress would have voted a large sum for the establishment of filter beds, for Dr. Mason showed by figures that fll- tration does wonders in removing the dan- gerous elements from water, and, while perhaps expensive in its initial installation, it more than pays. He alluded to a recent paper by Dr. Bil- lings, saying that-the latter had left him very little to say on the subject, as that paper had been more than complete. He referred to the condition of Paris before and after the establishment of other sources of water supply than the rains. From 1860 to 184, when the population was something like 1,196,000, the death rate was 24.57. From 1865 to 1802, after the in- stallation of the water supply system, the death rate was 22.89, a yearly saving of 1.68 lives in every thousand. Dr. Mason spoke of the amusing ignor- ance of the laity on the subject of water impurities, and illustrated it by referring to a citizen of Newark, who, when the ques- tion was being agitated, declared that he was not afraid of albuminoid ammonia, but would be willing to wear one in his but- ton hole, and would think it very pretty. Intimate Relations. Then the speaker rambled through Eu- rope, giving pictures and statistics of the water supplies of various cities, showing the intimate relationship that exists be- tween the death rate and the quality of the water. St. Reno, he said, has the finest water supply in Europe, the fluid coming from the hills back of the town, in such quantity that there is enough to supply the next town, and with a ferce that is hard to manage. He spoke of the experience of a tewn north of Hamburg, where the old wells went down to a bed of clay, and pro- duced a good deal of typhoid fever. It was finally decided to pierce this stratum of clay, and most of the wells were deepened, with the result that the death rate fell oi remarkably. In St. Reno the old system Was a well supply, and the death rate was 22.61. In 1884 the hill water was first brought down, and the death rate was re- duced fourteen per cent. One physician said that where he had forty cases of the fever, before the hill water was used, he now has one. An instructive chart of the city of Chi- cago was shown, demonstrating the fall of the death rate since the water supply tun- rels were lengthened out into Lake Mich- igan beyond the possibility of pollution from sewage. Another chart was shown to prove that the rumber of bacteria in drinking water is materially reduced by. its flow through the mains. Speaking of the European cities, Dr. Ma- son said that there had been a decided demonstration of the influence of the water supply on the death rate in Messina, which suffered in 1887 from a most severe epi- demic of cholera. The water itseif is pure, coming from the mountains, but a part of it is deflected, to give the washerwomen of the town a chance to do their work in the European fashion. Some of the water so used finds its way back into the mains, and passes through the supply pipes. Then, too, the mains are of unglazed tiles, badly Jointed, and ure in some cases laid im- mediately underneath sewer pipes of the same construction. Consequently the sup- ply was badly polluted. The cholera raged with the most incredible ferocity. he cases ran up to 400 a day. The authorities finally sent to a neighboring city and im- ported shiploads of pure water, dealing it out with great care. The cholera stopped as by magic. The cases ran down in a fee nares to five a day, and finally van- ished. Filtration Beds. Dr. Mason gave some interesting pic- tures of the filtration processes of Eng- land and Europe. The main problem, ne sald, is the purchase of sufficient land, which, in London, where seven-eighths of the water consumed is Altered, is a big affair. It costs from 5,000 to 8,000 pounds to build one of these filter beds, exclusive of the land. The scraping costs 86 cents per million gallons in London, and $1.14 in Liverpool. Liverpool does this work more shly than London. The scrapers are cents a day in England, and $1.50 a day in Hudson, N. Y., where the filtra- tion system is used. It has been demon- strated by microscopical analysis that fil- tration removes 99 per cent of the bacteria from the Thames water. It has been call- ed a mere straining process, but this 1s proved to be untrue. Dr. Mason gave pic- tures of small cylinder filters, and showed @ group of such in use in New Orleans, where the city supply is thus treated. Fil- tration gave to Altona, Germany, a pure water supply, and saved it from the chol- era epidemic of 1892, although the water is taken from the river Elbe below the mouths of the sewers of both Hamburg and Altona. Hamburg takes its water from the river above tie sewers, and, as is well known, suffered terribly from the plague. Remarkable Example. A most instructive map was shown of the cities around the junction of the Hud- son and Mohawk rivers. An epidemic of typhoid trcke out in Schenectady, which is located on the Mohawk; at the mouth of which are the two cities of Waterford and Cohoes. Cohoes takes its water from the Mohawk, about midway up to Schenectady. It had a most violent outbreak of typhoid fever soon after the disease broke out in Schenectady. Directly across the Mohawk is the city of Waterford, connected with Cohoes by bridges. It takes its water from the Hudson, above the junction of the Mo- hawk. It had no typhoid. Across the Hud- son is Lansingburg, taking its water from the hills back of the city. It had no typheld. Down the Hudson are Troy and West Troy, the former on the same side as Lansingburg, and the latter opposite. ‘Troy takes tts water from the Hudson above the junction of the Mohawk, and had no typhoid. West Troy takes {its water from the Mohawk, and was ravaged with the disease. Down the Hudson a few miles is Albany, which takes the bulk of its water from the Hudson, right off the wharves, passing it through a strainer, which, in the words of Dr. Mason, would not stop a mule. The entire city was swept by typhoid except a narrow strip near the water front, which is supplied with water from the hills back of the city. ‘There was no typhoid there. Rainfall and Typhoid. The sp2aker went at some length into the matter of the relations between the rain- fall and the prevalence of typhoid, and showed that the results of observations in various states differ considerably. In conclusion he spoke of the River Tees of England, which supplied water to a great many people living on its lower courses. ‘There are about half a million people living on or near the banks of the stream. Half of these take their water from the river, and the other half from other sources. The river is subject to inundations after heavy rains, which cause it to sweep off the rocky banks that are fouled by closets that overhang from the buildings on the upper course of the stream. A chart was shown to demonstrate that the typhoid fever breaks out most violently after every heavy rain among those who use Tees water, and that the disease is always more prevalent among that quarter of a million who depend upon the stream for their sup- ply. —_>_—__ ROBBERS SECURE $10,000. A Southern Pacific Express Train Held Up. A Bouthern Pacific west-bound train was held up within six miles of Wilcox, Ariz., Wednesday night at 8:35 by a party of masked men. They separated the express car from the train, hauled it five miles west, and, putting six shots of dynamite on the through safe, blew it wide open. It contained $10,000 in Mexican silver, which was removed. ——+e+—___ Ripans for heartburn, druggists, 50c.— Advertisement. I A RAILROAD’S CONDITION. peas Mr. Emmons’ Statement About the Georgetown and. Tenleytown Co. George FE. Emmons, president of the Georgetown and Terleytown Rall-oad Com- pany, has sent to the District Commission- ers and also to. Congress a statement in regard to the bills <antroduced in both houses, to amend theccharters of certain street railway companies and particularly designed to relieve the syburban railroads by reducing the present :tax of four per cent upon their gross earnings to one and a half per cent. : Mr. Emmons calls attention to the finan- cial condition of the rdad“ which he repre- sents and states that Wwheh he took active charge of the affairs’ of ‘the company in May, 1894, he found them in a very de- moraljized financial conditon. He found, he states, a floating indebtedness of over $13,000, with no provisions to meet the same, except the current expenses, and a bonded debt of $70,000. As no dividends have been paid, and there was no surplus of any character, Mr. Emmons states, from the opening of the road in April, 1801, to February, 1804, there has been a net loss of over $83,000. The tax on the gross earnings due and unpaid to the District of Columbia from 1891, aggregate $4,617.99. At the close of the year the financial statement of the company, Mr. Emmons says, showed that the operating expenses ewere $34,016, and the earnings $31,736. He states that the operating expenses are ex- clusive of the interest on the bonded debt, bills payable, expenses of commissions on bonds paid during the year, which will increase the actual loss during the year to a very considerable amount. During the year the company, Mr. Emmons states, supplied power to two companies, and he adds that “by reason of the insolvency of these roads (the Tenleytown and Rock- ville Railroad Compary and the Glen cho Railroad Company) we have never been able to obtain a compensation equal to the outlay, and yet, in order to keep the travel upon the Georgetown and Tenleytown road, we found ourselves obliged to con- tinue operations of the roads named at a centinued loss to us.” In view of these facts, Mr. Emmons asks for still greater relief than is provided for in the bills re- ferred to. He is of the opinion that the tax should be upon the net earnings of the road until it is placed upon a dividend- paying basis. ABOUT TRANSFERS. d Regarding Ex- ff. Line. The Eckington’s Sta: cbanges With the W. and Referring to the communication of the Washington and Georgetown Company, in reply to an inquiry of the Commissioners as to what steps had been taken by that company in connection with the question of transfers, in which it is stated that the Belt Railway Company hadenot requ the Washington and Georgetown Rai Company to enter into a reciprocal transfer arrangement, at or Letween Ist and streets and the Garfield statue on Ist street southwest, General Manager Schoepf of the Belt Company has called the attention of the Commissioners to several alieged facts in regard to the matter. Mr. Schoepf states that after carefully looking into the matter he is satisfied that the interest of the public can best be served by transfer between the Belt Rail- way Company and Washington and George- town Railroad Company at 14th street and Pennsylvania avenue, :as this, it is stated, would allow the employes of the bureau of engraving and printing to go direct to work on cne fare. It would ‘also be a benefit to others, says Mr. Schepf, much more so then if the companies veferred to would undertake to transfer ‘at'the points named by the president of the Washington and Gecrgetown Company. In conclusion Mr. Schoepf states that the Washington and Georgetawn Company ha not made any request to the Belt Railway Ccmpany for a transfer arrangement at any point. Neither have they advised th Belt Company, it is claimed, that the have considered the communication asking for a transfer arrangement at lith street and Pennsylvania avenue. —_- Poultry and Pigeon Fan Last evening a meeting of loc and pigeon fanciers was held at 71: street for the purpose of joining with the Maryland Poultry Club in an effort to cure for Wasningten the next meeting or exhibit of the American Poultry Associa- tion. Mr. George E. Howard was made chairman and Dr. W. J. Elstrum secre- tary, and a temporary organization was effected. A motion was adopted to con- solidate with~the Maryland organization under the name of the Maryland and Dis- trict of Columbia Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock Association. A committee, consist- ing of George E. Howard, Edward 8S. Schmid, William George Lee, J. E. Bui ingham, Charles W. Evans and J. Butts, was appointed te secure the mem- bership and co-operation of all interested in the movement in the District. Messrs. Gecrge O. Brown, G. A. Fick and Henry Welssner of the Maryland association e: plained the advantage of a joint associa- ticn, with alternate meetings at Washing- ton ‘and Baltimore, and it was determined to use every effort to secure the next meeting and exhibit of the national asso- ciation, December next, for this city. About sixty persons interested in the matter were present. a Willing to Fight for Mextco. Col. Timothy Quinn of the war records office recently tendered his services to the Mexican minister to fight under the Mexi- can flag in the event of a war with Guate- mala. He said he would retain his al- legiance to the United States, but would not hesitate to accept authority to raise a battalion or regiment of United States cavalry for service against Guatemala. Col. Quinn commanded the Lincoln cavalry of New York volunteers during the war of the rebellion. He has received a reply from the Mexican minister regretting that he could not comply with the request to au- thorize him to raise a regiment, as the legation could not be the channel for any other business than that of a purely: diplo- matic character. Col. Quinn’s letter was returned, that he might forward it directly to the war department of Mexigo. —____-e+___ The Assay Commission.
