PEORIA WATER WORKS.

From the Transcript we learn the fol
lowing relative to the Peoria Water Works :
The WATER WoRKs.-The Superinten-
dent Of the water works, last evening, re-
ported to the cooncil that he had collected
sno paid over for water rents during the
month of June, 6,l56,75, and for water
tax, 1854. The consumers have increased
l62. The water mains have been extended
1871 feet, four inch pipe, with the usual
connections and FIRE hydrants. A gsng of
pumps have been set up at the works to
furnish the bluff with water, and are now
in successful operation. The consumption
in the city per "a hours is two million gal
ions and, should dry weather set in, the
probability is that the increase would be
nearly one-third. A coal house 20 feet wide,
40 feet long and feet high, and large
enough to store 6 900 bushels of coal, has
been built ct the water works.

ACCIDENTAL DROWNING

Last evening, about seven o'clock, the
dead body of MiehAl McEneuv, an old resi-
dent of Dsvenport, was found in the river
near WeyerhAuser i Denkmans saw MILL
with the appearance of having been in the
water two or three days. Parties from DAv-
export identified the body and it was taken
in charge BY the coroner, and by him trans
ferred to the friends of the deceased, who
took it to Davenport this morning for inter
ment. Nothing is known how he camo to
fall into the river. On Tuesday morning he
left home and came to this city, and at nine
o'clock returned to his blacksmith shop on
Third street, but soon after left. 1t is sup
posed he again Started for this city and
must have fallen, unseen, from the ferry
dock where the current is quite strong. His
sudden and unexpected death will be re-
ceiyed with sorrow among large circle OF
friends in Davenport, where he has lived a
long time, and was highly respected. We
have known the deceased for number OF
years and always found him to be an honest
generous harted man every ready to share mis-
last dollar with the needy or in any way assist
others. He was also 8 man of considerable
ability and influence as political worker.
Being q consistent democrat and careful
man he had considerable influence in the
party, and was always representative for
the Irish democrats In his death Daven>
port loses good and honest citizen, and
his scqualutAnces n true friend. Though
Rot in the most exalted station of life hon

The Husba nd.

Ladies sometimes do not value their hus.
hands as they ought. They not unfrequent-
ly learn the value Of a good husband for the
first SINE by the loss Of him. Yet tho hus-
band is the very roof-tree of the house-the
cornerstone of the edifce-the keystone
called home He is the bread-winner Of
the family-its defence and its glory-the
beginning and the ending of the golden
chain Of life which surrounds Tits control
Ter law-giver and king Yet, we say, how
frail is that life on which SO much depends.
How is the life CT tho husband and father!
When he is taken away, who shall fill his
place! When he is sick, what gloomy clouds
hover over the house! When he is dead,
what darkness, weeping, agony! Then pow
erty, like the murderous assassin, breaks in
the windo W starvation, like furnishing
wolf, hcwis at the door! Widowhood is too
often an associate Of sack cloth and ashes.-
Orphanhood too often means desolation and
woe. Ponder these things ere it is too late,
and endeavor to tw inc flowers of love and
gratitude during his absence with which to
deck his brow and solaoe his heart on his
return from toll! 1t is precious thought
to him to know that though not present, low
ing heart is planning and busy hands arc
forming something to contribute to his com.
fort and pleasure; but how different are his
meditations when he has every reason to
believe that his slightest wishes are neglect
ed, and that he himself is Only thought of

Tell Your Wife.

If you are in trouble, or in quandary,
tell your wife-tbat is if you have one-all
about it at once Ten to one her Invention
will solve your difficulty sooner than all
your logic. The wit of woman has been
praised, but her instincts are quicker and
keener than her reason Counsel with your
wife, or your mother or sister, and be as
sured light will flash upon your darkness.
Women are to commonly adjudged as YER
dant in all but purely womanish affairs
No philosophical student of the sex thus
judges them Their intuitions, or insights,
are the subtle and if they cannot see cat
in the meal, there is no cat there. In coun-
selling man to tell his trouble to his wife,
we would 60 farther, and advise him to keep
none of his affairs secret from her. Many
a home has been happily saved, and many
fortune retrieved by mans full confidence
in his ''better half" Woman is far more
seer and prophet than man, if she have a
fair chance. As a general rule, wives con-
fde the minutest of their plans and thoughts
to their husbands, having no inducements
to screen from them Why not reciprocate.
if but for the pleasure of meeting confidence
with confidence ? We are certain that no
man succeeds so we'll in the world as he who,
taking partner for life, makes her the
partner Of all his purposes and hopes. What
is wrong of his impulses or judgment, she
will check and set right with her almost
universally right instincts. "Helpmeet"
was no insignificant title, as applied to
mans companion. She is a meet help to
him in every darkness, difficulty, and sor-
row of life. And what she most Graves,
and most deserves, is confidence without,
love is never free from shadow.
