THE ARGUS TUESDAY, MARCH 8, l9a INCREASED WATER SUPPLY. roiwmU.loinr to tttf Tfalnktnitthe I'rrM-nt ofnuppty Adequate tor the Nevdw. EDITOH A taxpayers are again culled on 10 decide the question of an adlitiou il water supply. As a question i-auuot be luU'lliyt'utly decided without a laots, I therefore present the- icllowing 1'or reservoir ilraiix iu 1892 to repair the gate uou-ie, aud Highland reservoir wa then dra wu do to less than 100,000,000 gallons. Second--Kach year riiuc-e has shown a gain in the total quantity stored iu both reservoirs.

Third-- Moiihfigen reservoir has not overflowed Kiuce dam was raised, aud it now lacks only eighteen iuc-hes of b'-ing fall. If it gains otie-thi'-d as much this spring as List it will overflow. Fourth--Hitrhlund reservoir stands at fifteen feet, which is four feet higher lhau ever before at this time of the year. Fifth--Both reservoirs together contain 590,000,000 Callous, which ia twke as much water as Monhagen reservoir hold wheu full. Sixth--If the total quantity stored in both reservoirs gains asinuchtbis spring as last vear they will contain 704.000,000 gallons, and will lack only OOO gallons of both being full.

Seventh--At the same rate of increase as for the lasc two years, both reservoirs will overflow- next year without any additional supply. Eighth--The experience of the last five years demonstrates that our present supply is greater than our present consumption. Ninth--The quality of water last year was better than ever before, and it can be made still better by the completion of proper system of blow-offs. Tenth--The city is now bonded OOOfor supply, and taxes are high. Eleventh--The Board has given no details of the plan recommended, and an affirmative vote means a vote of confidence backed by 175,000 to be spent as the Board may cnoose.

Aud if that sum is not sufficient to complete the plan the city must make up the shortage at a larer dav. Twelfth--If the 175.000 is voted for an additional supply of water, no reduction in can be tmtde for many years, for it is doubtful whether the revenue be sufficient to pay additional interest, sinking fund that must be pro- Tided, aud the necessary cost of new mains where required. Thirteenth--It the $175,000 is not voted the Board can at once reduce the rater-, and alter saving the tax- payei $5,000 a still have enough left to maintain th; system and at ihe same time extend the mains wherever needed. Go and see how nearly frll are b'th reservoirs, and it will help you to decide this question. O.

Daniel Barton, Who rlr-t Made in This Coumrs Biea lu County Poor Hous From the Boston Herald The man who introduced the manufacture of feilk hats into this country died in the poor house three years since.

His name was DauM Barton, and his age was eighty-eight. Half a century ago Mr. Barton was the fashionable hatter of New York, and it was due to him a the dandies of that day (dudes were then uuknown)looked for the correct article ia headgear. It id recorded of Mr. Barton that he made a special high hat for Henry Clay when that distinguished personage was in New York during his campaign for the Presidency in 1844.

What part, if any, the hat had in compassing Mr. CluyB defeat is iiot a part of die story. IllnesM came and carried a a Mr. Barton'u children, and, growing despondent, he gave up his business and moved to a farm near Liberty, in Sullivan County. N.

There lie did poorly as an agriculturist, and his fortune dwindled away. His wife died aud all his spirit seemed to leave him, and a few years age he became a charge on the county. Finally he found a pauper's grave on the county farm. A PIcaiMMt Buty. "When I know anything worthy of recommendation I consider it my duty to tell it," saya Rev.
