Figured largely but, great as they were,
they were more than realized. Three Ia

one of the best dinners We ever tasted.

was no end to the good things with which
the tables groaned. Handsomely n d
tastefully decorated with flowers, every
thing looked "good enough to eat" The
ladies of Mineral Point certainly cannot be

the thanks of the Dodgeville delegation.

IN THE EVENING
The officers of the lodge were publicly in

tendency to benefit the order and to adj

THE PHILADELPHIA WATER SUPPLY
The Philadelphia Ledger OF Wednesday
says:
Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock, for
the first time in about five weeks, the water
passed over the dam at Paramount. The
water commenced rising in the morning,
at the hour named it passed over, ami
ut 6 o'clock it was in q volume of at
least eight inches over the temporary breast
works erected during the drought. This
was the signal for the movement of the
large number Of canalboats above and be-
low inc dam, and during the AFTERNOON and
night n large number were locked
through The unusual stir in business in
the neighborhood attracted the attention Of
a large crowd Of spectators at Fairmount,
and the operations were witnessed With great
interest In connection with the water
supply, it may be mentioned that the steam
floating engine from New York reached
here on Monday evening, and was anchored
below the dam and in front of the wheel
houses, At o'clock the steamer was put
in CpSfa to-, connection between the boat
and the 6THn being made by means Of an
iron pipe, and a large volume OF water was
pumped, variously estimated at from 4, 900
to 5000 gallons per minute. All the tnr-
bines were in operation yesterday, and the
effect upon the supply in the basin was very
perceptiblc.''
