Text Appearing Before Image:
reat, said Cole-ridge, and Mr. Dailey appreciated that whenhe photographed the fountain pictured onthe cover. It is not such a fountain as VernonLee accentuated, but it is Rome in essence,and Coleridge, who loved fountains smallas well as great, might conceivably havepreferred it to any of the great Berninifountains. To Mr. Daileys camera we owe also thepictures of the Moorish aqueduct near Alge-ciras. Even the most indefatigable touristgives this aqueduct little attention, and feware they that think of photographing it.Hence, it will be studied as something newby very many of our readers. It is in strikingcontrast to the Roman aqueducts picturedherein, and may help students to understandhow the Saracens, with their background ofmathematics, brought something very im-portant into the European practicalities ofarchitecture and engineering.* * * All Spring Valley Water Company joinswith the editor in wishing readers of SanFrancisco Water a Happy New Year. 12 SAN FRANCISCO WATER January,

Another picture of the mid-nineteenth-century period when the Madrid Water Conduit was under construction. This is the Siphon of Bodonal, an iron pipe installation. At the time it was being built Hermann Schussler, of Spring Valley Water Company, was studying the applicability of riveted steel pipe to the economic uses of a modern water supply.
