Mr. Olmstead is in Europe, but it is his genius that has inspired the work, and his plans are being carried out with great skill by Mr. Henry Sar- gent Codman. He has travelled all over the world, studied at the Academic des Beaux Arts, and has been trained to the study of architectural forms and the re- lation between architecture and landscape work. Al- ready his plans have produced the great plots of vivid lawn, which, reaching along whole sides of buildings, throw their white walls into bol...d relief as if they were cameos in frames of enamel. The Department of Water and Sewerage is just now a busy one, and constitutes one of those features of the work which are evident now, but will be lost sight of when they are completed. Mr. W. S. McHarg, of Chi- cago, presides over the department. Under the system of sewerage he has devised, it will all be pumped by ejectors, through pipes to the southerly end of the grounds, into a building containing the great reservoirs and other paraphernalia of sewerage-cleaning works, in which the waste will be all treated chemically so as to rid it of all its impurities, leaving one part in the form of dry cakes and the remainder in the form of water, which will go back into Lake Michigan so pure that it might even be used for drinking purposes.
