He does not altogether take blame to his department for what happened last May---no official could be expected to do that but he says he dis covered that, in addition to red earth deposited on Crown lande, there wors very large deposits on privata lands. In other and less arabiguous words, he says My de partment may bars been a big sidder, but the owners of private land wore equally if not mere to blame for what happened.

HONGKONG, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1889.

Tax Sanitary Board has at last come to a decision on the Fixed quastion of the dis

water in fature. Of course it is impossible to keep the water perfectly pure the whole year round. After the heavy rains that fall during the sum or months the water will always be coloured a little by the earth which the torrents have cut-up. But, if ordinary care is taken to presont accumd-" lations of loose earth in the catchment aru, the water day or two after the heavy rain should become comparatively pure. En former youx, thie has been the case, but in May this year the water remained very dirty after a fortnight's dry weatlier, and it was this fact, more than wything elsay that alarmed residents. Two cases were attributed for tho

abnormal pollution. The tampering with the mud in the reservoir at the beginning of the year and the washing down of mud from the catchment area. About the first caize the officials concerned have endeavoured to say a little pos- sible. It was a big mistako, ku begin work which, as might bare beeu pulent to every body, could not be con
