WELL WATER.

1t would be worth the while of
those people in the city who are
using water from wells, to have the
fluid analysed. 1t would not be
surprising if by such a proceeding
the seeds of disease and death were
found to abound in profusion. 1t
has long been a question puzzling
the brains of doctors and others,
how diphtheria and the feverS sup
posed to have their origin in filth
and poison should develop and grow
IN the most clearly of households.
1t is known fact that in some of
the best kept homes, where the laws
of health are studied and obeyed,
and neatness and cleanliness char
.acterize everybody and everything
about the premises, diphtheria,
typhoid and scarlet fevers have
strangely appeared and been re-
markably severe in their ravages,
despite the efforts of skilled physi-
clans and the early application of
accepted remedies. Parents who
have always exercised extraordinary
care to guard against these "flth
fevers," have been fairly distracted
when their children have died from
causes generally presumed to be
preyentable. If the trouble is not
in the water. where can it
be found? Anyone familiar with
the wells hereabout, knows
that the water from most OF them
changes in "taste" at certain seasons
of the year; also that at times it
soon becomes foul in pail or
pitcher. During the irrigating sea-
son a well is a remarkably good one,
the water in which retains its fresh
ness and preserves its normal tenn
perature. Often We find the water
discolored after every irrigation in
the neighborhOod, and not infre-
qUentIy an unpleasant taste and
offensive Odor are encountered. All
the wells here are supplied with
surface water, and in few instances
does it flow long distances. This
should prove that the
water is extremely liable to corrup-
ton. Besides the filth that is all |
the time increasing on the surface
5he ground is honey-combed by
vaults, and it would tie strange in !
iced if the contents did not find
heir way into the wells. The sug-
'estion is disgusting. and all the
more so from the belief that it is
orrect. Tie matter is Of sufficient
10 warrant a thorough
est being made of the water of
wells in different quarters of the
ity. 1t is not at all improbable
hat if such analysis were made one
ause for the fevers so prevalent here
times may be found.

VOTE FOB THE CONSTITUTION.

This will be the last opportunity
of the HERALD to remind the public
that the polls will be open on Mon
day for receiving an expression of
the popular voice as to the constl-
tuition for a state framed and
adopted by the convention called
and assembled for the purpose. 1t
will also be the last chance to urge
the people to vote for the adoption
of the instrument. Nothing may
come from the labors of the conven-
ton and the approval of the consti-
tuition, but every person who votes
Eyes" will say that he prefers a state
to territorial government-that he
desires a voice in the selection of
offices and the administration of
affairs. We apprehend there are
very few people in Utah who want
a continuance OF the unrepublican
territorial system, hence expect
practically unanimous vote for the
constitution. 1t is hoped the vote
will also be practically unanimous
as to the people entitled to ballot on
the proposition. Let the vote be
the largest ever cast in the Terri
tory, and show by that means how
tired we all are of the present sys-
tenn Of government, and how anxi-
Gus to change it for one more in
harmony with American ideas and
republican institutions.

A Little Romance of Broadway,

Three pretty young girls from Jersey
City had left the ferry boat to walk up
to the elevated road, says New York
letter. aud unluckily were provided
with only one whalebone and silk COW
ering for their heads. The narrow side
walk made it almost impossible for the
three to walk abreast, and consequently
one of them, who was addressed as An
ME, received all the drippings from the
caves of the umbrella upon her unseliish
head.
A gentleman walking behind them
noticed'this, and tried, as unobtrusively
rs possible, to shelter her with his own.
For q block or so she ignored the at
tempt but finally was forced, in cross
ing the street, to accept the courtesy,
which she did with an embarrassed
bow. 1t happened that the youth had
been we'll brought up, and understood
her fear lest he should in any way take
advantage Of his courtesy to be imperti-
nent, and beingof o. rather mischievous
turn of mind, he waited until he caught
her eye, as she looked slyly up, when,
assuming that far" look so often seen
on the faces of the deaf and dumb, he
pathetically touched his lips, and shook
his head
The girl looked so immen sely relieved
! that he came near laughing right out;
especially when announced that he was
speechless she showed she wasn't by
quietly observing to one of her friends,
"Oh, Mary, isn't it too bad this hand
some young man is deaf and dumbp"
Mary thought it was, and wondered
how it was he ever got along in the
world, and much TO tho amazement of
this knight Of the umbrella, the three
proceeded to discuss him gir.fashion,
and from the color of his eyes to the
cut of his clothes he was fully criticised,
"AnnieN deciding that, as n husband,
he would be sans reproche, never swear
ing, never scolding, making silence
golden.
When they reached the station the
three girls bowed and smiled and grim.
aced their gratitude, when, to their pro.
found horror, the youth, with u swce,
smile, raised his hat, remarking, with
painful distinctncss, that he 'was very
happy TO have been OF service" With
a suppressed shrek. the merry maids
rushed up the winding stairs, and the
youth walked on, whistling Beautiful
ls-or-bsllar."

Great men with great ideas are mis-
understood by our world. Socrates,
who opposed the Sophists by using their
own weapons, was COMPOUNDED with
these Sophists. Aristophanes, in his
COMEDY Of the Clouds" makes So
crates figure as the chief of Sophsts.
u : teaching, which insisted more on
living a moral life than the mere formal
o s'ryance Of the service Of the gods,
was said to be "corrupting in its infu-
ence upon the youth and undermining
all true discipline and morality" He
was accused of introducing new gods.
He was tried, and on account OF his
naughty bearing condemned to death.
He told his judges that so far from be-
Ing condemned, he ought to be support
ed at public expense for the rest of his
life as a benefactor OF the state.
He braved his judges. Socrates
could plead his own cause; his friends
were true TO him. 80. Athenans, had
you waited short time the thing would
have happened without your agency,
for you see my years | am far advanc-
ed in life and near to death" ut is
now time that we depart, to die, you
to live; but which has the better destiny
is unknown to all except the Cod So
crates would have been put TO death on
the morrow after bis condemnation but
that il was the first day of festival.
He waited thirty days.
During the thirty days which he spent
in prison he was engaged with his
friends in cheerful conversation. These
companions gathered around him, lis
tening to his every word. He talked of
the life beyond. Socrates was an old
man compared with his friends. He
had seen the threescore years and ten.
He was ready to give up life. He had
assembled the hill-he had seen life from
It's height. No young hopes and am
billions filed his soul. The thirty DAYS
were up, The day he was to drink had
come The hour came, and with it the
administrator of the poison "IIow
shall take it?" asked Socrates. "Simp-
~ drink it, then walk round until a
heayiness comes upon you. After this,
lie down, and soon the poison will have
done its work. This Socrates did.
Soon the heayiness came, the body be-
came cold, and the spirit quietly passed
away, II was at sunset, and the rays
of that setting sun still give glory to the
prison of Socrates. Rec. Albert Walk

CLEANLINESS Next TO Godliness.

Mrs. Colonel Percy Yerger, one of
the most fashionable ladies in Austin,
ordered Matilda, her servant, to bring
in pitcher Of iced lemonade and some
cake for some ladies who had called.
Matilda brought the pitcher in one
hand and the cake in the other, instead
OF bringing the cake on plate.
Matilda, did you wash your hands
before you took hold of that cake?n
asked Mrs. Yerger, looking sharply at
Matilda.
"Yes, num-"
"Are you sure you washed your
hands,"
Yes, mum; | washed my hands on
de Jumps oh ice put in de lemonade"
This so disguised Mrs. Colonel Percy
Yerger with Matilda and the lemonade
that she put on her sunbonnet, went
over to the corner grocery and brought
back a bucketful of beer. There is
more satisfaction in beer than there is
in lemonade, anyhow -Aler. Street.

How 10 Swim.

There really is no mystery in learn
ing to swim-an accomplishment which
is possessed in perfection by the most
stupid of frogs. More than once | have
explained how any one can teach him
self The trunk, less the arms is heav-
Ter than water; with the arms, it is
lighter; all, therefore, that person has
to do is to acquire the habit of drawing
in the breath when he is preparing to
make a stroke, and expelling the breath
when he is making it. Let any one do
this and keep calm, and he will find
that he can swim. But, perhaps, it is
better to acquire confidence by prelim-
mary course of floating. To do this
1t is only necessary to lie flat on the
water, stretch out the arms with the
palms of the hands downward, throw
back the head, and whenever the body
sinks low, slowly to fill the lungs with
air.--London TrUH.
