Interesting Facts A boat the Sew Tork Aqaed net. New York San. The longest tunnel in the world Ls rapidl* approaching completion. In other words. New York, in about eight months' time, and after the ex £enditure of about $20,000,000, will ave her aqueduct. It is of interest to tbe public to take • glance at this great engineering feat in some of its more practical features —the question of New York's water aupply and it* utilization under pres ent and prospective facilities being of vital importance. The drainage area of the < roton basin covers about 364 square miles. In other words, the supply from which New York derives her water is brought to Croton lake from that area of country. This vast water shed, even in periods of the greatest drouth, will furnish a aupply of water equal to the needs of tbe city for about .'*) years to come. Allowing lor an increase in population in ratio proportionate to that of tbe past Hut, under present conditions, the facilities for storing this water are totally inadequate. The present ca pacity of Croton lake and other reser voirs is roughly estimated at about lO.OtW.OUO.OUU of gallons, and, assum ing that each year, like the present, shall give a regular monthly rainfall, averaging aliout four inches, these reservoirs will lie kept filled and equal to the increased demands made upon them by the new aqueduct. Ilut. given a few months ol drouth, New York may find herself as badly off as ever. The reason for this is obvious. The rainfall at present beiug far in excess of the storage capacity of the Croton reservoir, the great excess of water passes over the dam and so into tbe Hudson river and out to sea. llence the necessity for the proposed Quaker Bridge reservoir, tvhich, when con structed, as it inevitably must lie, will Impound and store all this waste water arm furnish ample reserves from which to draw in seasons of drought. This reservoir therefore, is a most impor tant feature in tbe present plan for improving New York's water supply. When the dam shall have l*en con structed the proposed reservoir will have a capacity of about 35,000,000,000 of gallons. It will form a lake prac tically about sixteen miles long and of an average width of over ball a mile, from the mouth of the Croten river to Croton falls, near I'urdy's. lly reason of its vaster Iwdy and creater depth, the water in this reservoir will not only be cooler but of greater purity, ltjs a well known fact that the rays of the sun, acting upon any body of water of a general depth of less than eight feet, c|tu*e a vegetable growth of green scum, the gradual decay of this ren ders the water more or" less impure, although not actually deleterious to health. Apart from its supply of water from the Croton basin, the city lias two other sources of supply- namely, the Bronx and Ityram rivers. The pres ent or old aqueduct, n< it is now called, has a daily delivering capacity of KM,000,000 of gallons, lft,duo,oW more being obtained from the rivers first mentioned. New York is, there fore, now, and has heretofore been, using aliout 113,000,000 gallons of water daily. If, however, a full head of water could be turned on at the gates of Central Park reservoir, the consumption would not fall far short of JOO,fXU,QOO —the use of water having of necessity been discouraged rather than otherwise. Hut with the new aqueduct ami the (Quaker Bridge dam, the public will be educated to the liber al u-e of water, and the consumption, especially among the poorer cla**e*, will be greatly increased. The new aqueduct is about miles long, and will d< liver to the city o(*>,ono gallons a day. It is horse-shoe shaped and a little over ISisj feet in diameter from ('roton lake to u point near Jerome park, through which section the water will run by gravity, with a fall of aiiont seven tenth" of a foot to the mile. Idling the conduit to the extent of alaiut tour fifths of its capacity. At Jerome park the atjueduct makes a somewhat ab nipt tall of about a hundred feet, pass ing under the Harlem river *ome9)i) feet below the level of the water, run ning under Manhatten island, and finally rising at One Htin.lred and Thirty Bfth street, where a gate house ha- hewn constructed from which the water will be distributed bv means of eight iron pipe", four of which run into the reservoir at Central park and four to the city. Throughout ijs entire length this great tunnel has been blasted out of solul rock, with the exception of three or four spots where "blow-offs'" have been constructed with the object of rapid I* emptying the acquoduct ~ which here meet* the surface—for the pursue of examination, repair or cleansing The tunnel i< iiaed throughout with brick, and, iu one or two places, where the rock ha* been found imperfect and a leakage is i«>, sible, irou has been added a- a lining. In eight'months' time this vast un dertaking will ha> e lieen a . ompli>hed and nothing will then be lacking but Iheijuaker bridce re-ervoir, which is now under consideration bv the new commissioners. As there is no cloud without a lin ing. »o too. then- i« no row without its thorn*, and it is an undoubted lac! that !h<> new and increased water pre«- aure when it does come will create no little trouble. especially in the lower and b i-iness portions of the city.

The Woman's League of Chicago that was organized some time during the past summer, held its first public meeting the other day. Chicago is as forward in tbe matter of woman's work as in other progressive move ments. 70 dobs, societies and institu tions, organized and conducted solely by women,having received recognition and hearty support from the presa and people. Along with other works, important and useful, they have formed and are now managing mc ceasfully M free kindergartens, a float ing hospital, a fresh air philanthrophy society, a branch association of the Woman's Itecorative Art Association that trains teachers in various manual arts and then sends them into differ ent missions to spread the advantages of intelligent labor. To those already mentioned a number of cooking schools should be added, also a Lake hide sanitarium, a club that devotes its energies to providing the ways and means of sending workingwomen and children of the poor for a country visit every summer, several flower missions and a free industrial school for boys. These are but a few of the many "societies of earnest women who are laboring faithfully to work re forms in tbe spiritual and physical condition of humanity in that great citv. Out of the 70 organizations 50 have already joined the Woman's league, and in union hope to find strength to overcome a portion of the •in, misery and ignorance awaiting their ministrations. Baroness Gripenberg, who sailed last week for her Finland home, was one of the most distinguished visitors of the Woman's International Council held in Washington last spring. Being a woman of broad intelligence and warm philanthropy, she studied the manners and costumes of this country very closely, honing on her return to find means of i*nefiting her people. She was a keen observer and gave special attention the educational meth ods, devoting much time to tbe kinder garten system. To better study them she attended the National Education Association in San Francisco and re mained some weeks on the I'acilic coast. Her woman's heart is shown in her giving up some pleasant social engagements to sjiend a day in a hos pital cheering a poor Finnish boy there who had l«en here but a fear weeks and could speak no English. Her kindly services will long be re membered bv other Scandinavians to whom she ministered. A favorite form of charity in other cities is found in conducting free in dustrial and sewing schools for the benefit of children, young girls and mother" who are in ignorance of the fine art of using those house-wifely implement-*, the scissors and needle. One large school, under the super vision of the Haptist church on Maga zine street, has been established in New Orleans and is accomplishing a vast amount of good in this direction, every possible attraction being offered to induce children to attend, and as much effort is made to improve the scholars in mind and manners as to give instruction in putting quilt pieces together and fashioning simple articles j of clothing. Two enterprising Swedish girls took out naturalization papers in Chicago last week Ida Marie and Ellen Ham mer, aged respectively 23 and '25 years. The clerk to whom they applied was greatly astonished, never having re ceiveif such an application liefore, but upon examination he could find no law against it, and the papers were made out. Perhaps the mo-texclusive and ultra aristocratic branch of that conservative thing known as society in Philadel phia, is the Oermantown set, and the pet of the Uerniantown set at the pres ent moment is Miss Bessie Sellers, one of the several daughters of David W. Sellers, counsel for the I'ennsvlva nia Railroad Company, and one of the most prominent lawyers at the Phila delphia bar. Jl iss Sellers is an attrac tive brunette, with blueeyes and brown hair, a slender and graceful figure, anil an indescribably thoroughbred air and carriage. She Is animated in conver sation. and possesses a joyous exuber ance of spirits that is magnetic enough to make the most misanthropic, when in her presence, feel that life is worth living, she delights in all out-door sports, from tennis to horseback rid ing, but is particularly enthusiastic about cricket, and has worn out more than one pair of number fives ap plauding the victories of the Philadel phians in their recent contests with the Gentlemen of Ireland. Resides being a lielle iu right of her personal attrac tions, Miss .Sellers is that mm aria in Philadelphia society, a successful au tbor. Iter hook (" From 18-20," J. B. I.ippinco't Company), a brightly writ Jen, wholesome story of a girl's life during its most romantic period, was .purely a labor of love, taken up to while away the tedious hours of a lengthy -ojoum last -pring in Florida, and was rather the outgrowth of a girl ish habit of keeping a diary than of any serious determination to produce an ambitious work of fiction. She budded lietter than she knew, how ever, and the result may encourage her to more serious literary labor. Mis* Sellers like he*t to write at night, and by a very dim light she has a peculiar aversion to *trong lights and declares the electric light a modern aliomiiia tion. A traveler in foreign lands says: If one were to judge of the physique of Kngii*h women from the spec i mens he sees in the shops. behind the co niters, lie would set them down for u very tail race, but if be inquire* in to the subject he will find that these women are selected for their very height the taller their figure the higher their salarv, very often. A stranger with an observing eve will al so notice that English and French sale-women or *«le«ladies. a* thev are calle-i in New York, dress in black while on duty. This, however, is not a mere caprice on the part of the wo men: in mo*t shops it is compulsory. The shopkeepers believe that shop women look neater and better in black than in colors, and so all of them wear black. The gowns may be of any material, but the color mus't lie uniformly black. Nor are they al lowed to wear showy trimmings,* and a* for jewelry, either real or imita tion. it is out of the question. In *ome shops they may, or rather they mu*t wear a simple, plain linen collar and linen cuffs: this is the case at Whitely's, the largestshopin London, and some say even larger than the worlddanuxts Hon Marche of Paris.

Mrs- Shaw, the whistler, will coon a coocert tour this season, under the management ot Major Pood, who may be addressed at the Everett hotel. Sew York. Mr*. Shaw 'a new terms for a concert are fIOO, beaides having her expenses paid, a* well as the expense* of her accompanist. Since Mrs. Shaw a remarkable success in London her services are in great demand, and (here is every promise that she will not be able to accept all tbe engage ments that are offered to her. The follosring tribute is paid South ern womanhood by a Northern visitor who passed through the land, taking notes. The little lady under discus sion was one of the many luxuriously reared daughters of Virginia, whose fortune* changed with the war: "Left a widow a few years ago with a family of two or "three children and the management of a big estate loaded »ith debt she put her •houlder to the wheel, sold off lands from the old manorial place, opened the bou-e as a summer report and crams every corner of it with people. «ho come from as far as New York and New Orleans, a!tracted by the reputation of the place. No part of the domain or the work thereon but is more or less moved and direcffQ by her. Nothing daunted, however, by responsibilitie" or fatiguing duties, she comes up smiling every evening in the daintiest of toilet* with fingers ready to while awav the hours for her quests on a fine German piano, of which she is thorough mistress. FASHION POINTS. The bustle is not moribund. It is dead. Brick red or Venetian red shades are in favor. Gobelin blue remains a very fashion able color. The sleeves of all wraps are made looser and more flowing. Two or more fabrics are used in the combination of all dressy gowns. The bonne femme or Marie Terese long cloak is the rage of the moment in Paris. Never was fashion so capricious, varied and adaptable in her moods as she is this fall. AH fashionable dresses have long draperies and very little looping of the skirt, back or front. The round hat or toque, with a straight big crown, sunken in on the top, is a first favorite this season. Emerald green is combined with turquoise blue in some of the most elegant toques of this season. King Charles cloth is a fleece-woven woolen cloaking stuff that is much in favor for little girls' "coats." The morning robe most in favor takes the Princess form, but it is made with many modifications. Fringes, which for some years have been neglected a* trimmings, have again lieen taken into fashionable favor. Birds' wings and tails, and quill feathers, are much used in millinery, bftt whole birds are no longer seen on hats or bonnets. The very late.-t fancy in waists of gowns for grown women is the guimpe bodice, very much like the guimpe waists of little girls. The variety in styles of wraps, bon nets, hats, gowns and materials this fall makes it a dress-as-you-please sea son ami no mistake. All shades of green are immensely fashionable, and combinations of green with blue, browns and Venetian reds are seen in Paris millinery and Paris gowns. The favorite style for the cloth gown is the directoire, but dressy toilets of silk, broche, moire and plush, demand the dressier lines and fullness of the empire styles. The ends of ribbon bows and the fringes of cut cloth are given the finish of passementerie spiffes or balls in many of the dressiest garments for big and little people. • ireen i* an extremely fashionable color, and in its various shades of emerald, lapi* lazuli and l>eryl is fash ionably combined with blues, olives, browns and dull reds. The buttons on dresses and wraps are features this fall. A set of fine ar tistic button* costs almost as much as jewels, and they are gems of art in the way of carving, enameling, cut and faceted metal and opaline and "cat's eye effects" in nacre or mother-of pearl, in all tints and shades of color. A charming Russian evening gown for a young lady is of white lace and criiii-on velvet, and is made with an underskirt of creamy lace draped with crimson velvet, caught in front with an ornament in * Byzantine enamel. The little square jacket of red velvet is embroidered with gold and opens over a lace underbodice. Another polonaise of black velvet, from a famous Parisian dressmaker, is entirely plain at the back and on the side-, and opens in front to dis play a shirt of white cloth, embroid ered to the waist in cashmere colors and pattern, and trimmed from the bottom with deep points of brown otter fur. This polonaise is turned back in square revers, which are faced with white cloth embroidered in colors and display a short pointed vest of white wool" similarly embroidered. The most elegant gowns for cnurch or reception wear will probably lie made in some modifications of the directoire styles. These dresses de mand elegance in material and sim plicity of style. The lines of draperv, when there are anv, are from the waist in classic effect. Hanging scarfs and straight effects, which add to the height of the figure, are always aimed at in these garments. Full ruches of feathers in Huffy marabout-like bands are extensively used in directoire gowns. The heavy mattalasse goods, velvets and heavy brocatelle effects in brocaded silks are made up in directoire styles, over skirts of cashmere, embroidered wool, or {ilain heavy silk or velvet A dark iltie-green amure-roval silk, figured with a large black raised figure of pine cones in mattalasse effect is made in a straight directoire polonaise, with large square pocket-flap* of black velvet at the sides. A band of feather trimming in black and green to match the dre-- trims the neck of the polo naise. the sleevei at the wrist, the bottom of the plain black velvet under skirt. and passe* on the side to the waist line.
