KINGSTON TN: NEED OF PLUMBING INSPECTION. : -- A Wooden Drain to Take Away Away Waste Water -- Cases That Have Come to the Atten- ' tion of Those Who Want Prac- tical Laws. Kingston, Nov. 26.--(To the Edi- tor) : 1 have noticed several articles of late in the city papers regarding sanitary plumbing and the appoint. ment of an inspector. As this is one of | most important parts in the health of | "size of Kingston has such an inspec- tor, for you would not have to go many miles to get one. But, getting down to plain facts, we should have such an oflicer and. by- laws to govern the "placing of plumbing = in houses. Let me cite a couple of cases. In the north end of the city there was, not over a- month ago, placed a wooden drain to take the waste water from three houses where sickness had pre- vailed, caused by defective drainage. Then, again, take the case of a cou- ple of weeks ago, when one of our best houses in the heart of the city had its drain choked up. When exam- ined it was found to empty into a pit; when the pit was cleaned out, the drain was cleared. I can say that, the neighbors got the benefit of this.

This is | in a part of the city about which the | board of health has been anxious late- | ly. In a house on King street there | has been much sickness recently. What | do' we find there on account of impro- | per work ? We find the soil pipe drop- ped away, and the ends were one and | a quarter inches apart. No wonder the doctor ordered the occupants to va- | cate the house. What about the plumb- ing and drainage in the centre of the city, which has lately been the subject of discussion ? These instances will, I | think, give some idea, why we should have an inspector. It might be asked how long it will take to make an inspection of prem- i ises. The work would occupy from two | | | to three hours, according to the size of the job. If weshave any official | whose duty it is to attend to this, he cannot have much to do at present. | What we want now is a practical board to draft by-laws, and to do it at once.--CITIZE WHAT SCIENCE TEACHES.
