WATER SUPPLY.
SEATTLE. W. T., July z, 1881.

SEATTLE. W. T., July 2, 1881.
To tAe HoH .Hlyor and Common Council Of
The city OF Seattle aud to the People Of said
city:
The undersigned have the honor Of
calling your attention to the prop0s, d
form of sn ordinance herewith SUBJ
mitted. and respectfully request its
adoption and passage.
The introduction of q sufficient sup
ply of fresh, pure and wholesome water
is measure so beneficial in every way
to the city that its necessity is conceded
by ell.
The provisions Of said ordinance have
been carefully considered by the I'M
designed. and they feel assured that.
in the event of the passage of this Or
dinance, they will be enabled to success
fully accomplish its object. They do
not expect to realize q fortune ont of
this project. but only fair remanera-
ton for the capital necessary 10 be
enlisted and employed. Hence no COM
pensstion is expected or asked for any
supply OF water required by the city
for FIRE, sewerage or other necessary
public purposes. The right to use the
streets, alleys and public places for their
purposes and the franchise for twenty.
five years is deemed fair snd sufficient
consideration for the liability to furnish
free of charge said water for public
uses. The maximum rates allowed by
said ordinance to be charged for water
furnished for private uses are believed
to be reasonable and fully justified by
the large outlay of money required in
the erection and maintenance of said
proposed works.
In framing said ordinance. care has
been taken to have its provisions stated
in plain and concise terms and to pro-
tect all persons now owning and en-
gagged in the operation of water works.
The undersigned would, however, be
pleased to receive suggestions from any
source concerning any defect in the pro-
posed ordinance whereby the rights or
interests of the city or its inhabitants
are deemed TO be insuficiently guarded
or protected.
Very respectfully submitted.

Disturbances ON Jupiter.

Parties who have been contemplating
a removal from this planet to the planet
Jupiter will do well to pause a moment
and count the cost ere engaging passage
in one of the passenger balloons predicted
for an early day. An astronomer has
been investigating Jupiter and presents
a not very fattering report of the state
of affairs up there. Terrible ills have
overtaken the giant planet. "The least
of the hurricanes that have swept this
disc would have leveled every city in
the United States and wrecked the ma
vies Of the whole EARTH" The other
prominent planets have also suffered
remarkable disturbances this year. 1t
is consoling to know that our own storm
torn and sun-baked little earth has Jared

An English nj. p. Who Had Never
Heard Of Yorktown.

James Ashbury, M. p, of London, was
just finishing his luncheon at the Bre-
WORT House yesterday, when Tribune
| reporter called to see him. Mr.. Ashbury
is that former Commodore of the ROYAL
Thames Yacht Club who, withthe Cam
bria in 1870, and the Lavonia in 1871,
made unsuccessful attempts to carry off
the America cup. He is a large, full
bearded man, about forty years of age,
and in manner, tone, dress, and every
thing, is a thorough Englishman.
!" have been out of yachting now for
several years." said he to the reporter,
in reply to some questions about yachts,
''and really don't know anything about

ment. still keep yacht, but go in for

| "Do the English intend sending over
one of their cutters to try for the Ameri-
ca cup if the Canadian Atalanta does
not take it?''
Really, 1 couldn't say. I've been
up in Spitzbergen, you know, and only
stopped in England long enough to get
a new outfit, when I started for this
country"
"Have you heard of the victories of
the Madge?''
"Oh, yes," with a complacent smile
81 believe she cleaned out everything,
didn't shep'
The reporter was forced to admit that
she did.
"By the way,' continued Mr.. Ashbu-
ry, gazing at his wine-glass with a puz-
zled expression, "Mr. Bennett was here
just now and invited me to go down
with him on his yacht to a place here
where you are having some sort of an

When the reporter had recovered his
breath he replied: "a hundred years

The chief medical officer of the
New Jersey State Lunatic Asylum
points out the fact that Notwithstanding
the great prevalence of malaria in that
section, not single case of that disease
has been found among the lunatics, who
last year numbered 672 Attendants
and laborers about the institution suf-
fered severely. The explanation is
found to lie in the fact, not that insanity
protects from malaria, but that the luna
tics are never allowed to be out after
nightfall.
Charles F. Brush, the inventor Of
the Brush light, says there is no good
reason why the elevated trains in New
York should not be run by electricity,
on the same principles as the Siemen's 5
electric railway, the success of which is
beyond controversy. He thinks the use
of such system for long distances will
not be practicable until the storing of
electricity has been accomplished, but
he admits that M. Faure's experiments
in such storage have opened ga wide
field which will soon revolutionize every
branch of electricity"
An Austrian engineer named Lauer
has discovered new method of disin-
tegrating rock. The chief feature of his
system is to employ a hollow cylinder
like gas-pipe, and to place the dyna-
mite cartridge, not as hitherto in hole
bored into the rock to be blasted, but in
the cylinder in question. The cartridge
only touches the surface of the rock
which it is desired to shatter. The ex-
plosion of the dynamite is effected by
means of electricity, and the effect is
said to be greater than with the usual
cartridge in hole bored in the rock.
The rock is shattered into fragments so
small that a fair stream is able to wash
them away without help, whereas in the
case of gunpowder the rock is only split
up into small blocks more or less large
and troublesome to remove. The Lauer
system is calculated to effect a saving of
fully 40 per cent. as compared with the
old system
