some time arranged te take them te Bom Bem
ervllle, New Jersey, which town, as well m
the neighboring one of Rarltan, is supplied
with water from the Ruitan river, after It
has been purified by filtering through Hyatt's
filtering apparatus At Elizabeth, N. J., Mr.
Hyatt, the inventor el the system, Joined .the
party.
The water plant at Somervllle hM a
capacity of U)0,0U0 gallons per day. There is
no reservoir In which te titere the water, but
the water la pumped directly into a stand
pipe, and passes thence Inte and through the
Hyatt filters, four In number. The water
pumped from the rher wm vile
looking stud of a yellowish red
color, net unlike the Coneatega water
after a heavy mln, only worse.
After passing through the Altera it became M
clear as crystal aud as sweet m spring water.
The engineers lu charge Inlermed the visitors
that the filtering material then In use had
been used constantly for about twenty months
and wai as geed at new. The material con
sists of sand and comminuted coke, the cost
of which la euly a few cents per bushel.
When It becomes foul Irem filtering large
quantities of dirty vtuter it can be easily
washed without removing It from the appa
ratus. One el the filters had been washed
before the arrival of the visitors and another
wm washed in their presence. The operation
required about twenty minutes. A great
amount el black, filthy, greasy sediment wm
thrown out during the process or WMhlng,
butnotaparticleorthts dirt found Its way
through the filters. While one el the filters
was being washed tbe three ethers remained
ou duty.
A SAMl'LB OK VII-B WATKll.
After viewing these operations the Vl.l
tnrs were shown a sample or water from the
Rarltan river before and after filtering. Aa
said above, tbe one is very filthy and the
ether m clear as crystal. Specimens of both
msy be seen in bottle at the mayor's offlee.
Had net the mayor and his party aeen the
water filtered before their own eyes, they
would have been slew te believe that the
transformation could have been se rapidly
and se perfectly made.
After Inspecting the works and receiving
various explanations Irem the ofnelala In
charge, the Lancaster party were taken te a
hotel and dined the water en the table being
furnished through the Hyatt Altera.

sey, where they Inspected the big Y recently
cait for the Lancaster water werka te supply

aud would seen be shipped te this city.
The mayor and his party returned te Phil

In Mentana and oenseqntnoo losses of stock

Ibe winter deea net exceed that of 1880
81 In severity, when the losses te stock
did net exceed 25 per cent The cattle
Interest wilt suffer most Sheepmen gen
erally were prepared for the cold weather.
The great majority of the cattlemen are
wealthy, and there will probably net be a
tingle failure In Mentana, Specials from
Butte stating that Helena bank expected te
sustain heavy leaaea en leans advanced te
cattlemen are without foundatlen'and abso
lutely false ; only ene or two of the largest
cattle companies are borrowers of money te
any extent, and such lean are placed In the
Kast, for tbe reason that the cattlemen can
not afford te pay the high rate or Interest
prevailing In Mentana,
The weather la moderating and the stock
men are confident that' In a few daya the
ranges will be comparatively free from anew.
