None of the night engines went in on the track where the Mexican was killed, Exactly how the. man met his death will probably never be known.

Atwood met with an accident and fell into tin-icy waters with his hydroplane, When all the arrangements for the lllght had been completed, the engine was started and the hydro-aeroplane rose. In turning into the wind, a little water struck the magneto and the engine stopped. Atwood tried to head the machine into the wind again, but the rudder struck tho water and the apparatus collapsed. Atwood climbed on top of his aero-plane and looking toward his friends on shore, waved his hat. Several small craft soon were headed in his direction.

As the first one came up, the hydroaeroplane sank in 0 feet of water. Atwood was pulled into a boat uninjured.

BENlATH AVIATOR TAKES RE AN ILLEGALLY TORONTO'S CONCRETE FILTRATION PLANT. Canedian City Remedied Poor Water Supply by Up ta Oct J. Methods. Jl? The filtration plant which is Just beiug completed at Center Island, Toronto, affords a typical example of thd use of concrete In this type of construction. It is possible to conceive that the tremendous strides which have been niado in the methods for purifying the water of municipalities would not have taken place if such a material as concrete had not been available.

While this Toronto plant Is the first nt any magnitude in Canada, similar plants are in operation at Pittsburg, Philadelphia. Washington, Albany and other places. In 1890 the eminent English engineer, Mr. Mansergh, recommended that the city of Toronto obtain its supply of water from Lake Ontario and that it filter the same. The condition of the water supply of Toronto was so poor that in 1909 ac- Uy-SSSf VfcisVS i iTTrmaiiir sl i nn OOKSTEOCTISO CONCBETI rilTIE WALLS.

i Ion' was' taken, and in May of the Ratue year the contract for the complete plant was awarded. Although laboring under many difficulties, the contractors have executed a remarkable piece of work, and the economical methods of handling the concrete from the time it left the mlxer3 until it was placed have been the subject of much comment. The filter beds are 312 feet by 117 feet, six of them being located on either side of a central court, in which re situated the regulating houses, the entrance houses, the mechanical sand washers and the sand storage bins, together with the great number of pipe lines. At one end of one row of the filters 13 located a pure wnter reservoir, 312 feet square, from, which the filtered water is taken to the city. All of the filters and the reservoir have concrete groined arch roofs, Inverted groined arch floors, concrete piers, division walls and outer walls.

The piers In the filters are spaced thirteen feet on centers and are square. For purposes of ventilation concrete manholes, made with steel forms, have been erected in the center of every other, square of the columns, being spaced twenty-six feet centers both ways, and it should be noted, that the facilities for placing material inside the filters were increased by their use. As to the general operation of the filters, it may be said that from the low life pumping station located on the lake shoro side of the filters the water is forced through a re-enforced concrete pipe, from which re-enforced concrete branches are taken off at right angles to the Inlet to the chambers under each entrance building, each branch to supply two filters. Upon entering the filters the water Is spread over tho surface of the sand to a depth of thirty-six to forty-elgltt inches and then passes through, specially prepared sand and three layers of broken stone and gravel. -1 After percolating through these materials the filtered water is collected in ten inch split pipes and emptied into a main drain concrete box.

These drains are covered with a re-enforced concrete slab and empty into cast iron effluent pipes, one of which leads from each filter to a regulator house. Each one of these pipes is prodded with a meter. After passing through the regulator house the water Is then delivered by concrete pipes to a puro water reservoir. From this point it connects with a steel pipe which runs across the island to the tunnel leading under the bay and thence connecting with the main pumping station on the Toronto shore. A GOOD INVESTMENT.

Story of How Macon, Became "the City of Maples." The town of Macon, which has many miles of beautifully shaded (streets, owes that feature of Its adornment to a sort of Colonel Sellers who became involved with the city on a tax bill of $1CS somewhere in the seventies. The promoter, who had labored diligently to boom the town by laying off new additions and encouraging people to move to what he called the "future Indianapolis," had no money, but he had 10,000 young shade trees which he had contemplated setting out around his lots. The city council agreed to accept the promoter's proposition to take his trees in lieu of cash. A proclamation was issued setting apart an "arbor day," when every property owner would be given as many fine young maple and elm trees as he would agree to set out and attend to. The people couldn't lose on that sort of a proposition, and they took it up almost unanimously.

Some ten years thereafter the town became known as "tho City of Maples." The trees, now old and farreaching, canopy the avenues, arching over them like the beams in a cathedral. Mr. and Mrs. I. B.

Jan. 1. Lawyers practicing1 here before the Supreme Court of the United States will be forced herenfter to give a helping hand to the court's endeavor to facilitate business. According to the new court rules, which went 'into effect today, attorneys for the plaintiffs before the Supreme Court must file their briefs' three weeks before a case is to be called for oral argument. The defendants' attorneys must file their briefs one week before the arguments are made.

In all eases, the clerk of the court Is instructed to receive no briefs where counsel have not served copies on opposing counsel. The latter provision was designed to put an end to counsel appearing before the court unprepared to answer arguments of the opposing side, and delaying the court by supplemental briefs, dealing with the opposing argument. The court has announced its determination to receive briefs after a case lias been argued orally. The new rules will not be enforced rigidly at once. As yet printed copies of the rules are not available and time will be given to the bar to acquaint itself with the new requirements.
