MEssRs. EDITORS The necessity OF
. large water supply, suitsble to our
growing population, and also Of a more
efficient system of drainage, has given
rise to so much discussion, and SO
many theories upon the subject have
already been advanced, that apologize
in advance for asking space In your
valuable paper to call the attention of
those interested to yet another plan,
which, if practicable, would accomplish
the desired end with much less ex-
penditure than any of which have yet
heard.
Briefly it is az follows Let thirty
inch pipe (or larger) be laid from any
available and healthy point on the
Brandywine above Bancroft's Mills to
the water works in this city
The Intermediate grade Is such that
the water, in obedience to natural laws,
will descend to the city without the
aid of one pound of steam, and in a
much purer state than the present sup
ply for by this mode of conveyance
you exclude from it the deleterious
matter from the factories along the
river, and it will not be necessary to
construct sewer along the south side
of the Brandywine to protect this sup
ply from the sewage and surface drain
age, which now pollute our drinking
water.
The problem of flushing the sewers is
not to be solv ed by simply turning wa
ter from the fire hydrants into the gut
ters indeed, such a method only tends
T., ,uaph uanato hla sand
into the sewers. thereby hlockading
them and impairing their utility, while
at the same time diminishing the sup
ply of basin water.
The only really effective mode of
flushing would be to discharge copions
streams of water directly into the sew
ers at given points along their route,
and this can be accomplished in the fol-
lowing manner
Let the large supply pipe be tapped
at the intersection of Sixteenth and
King streets, and a ten-inch or larger
pipe be connected to it and carried thence
along Sixteenth to Walnut or Poplar,
thence to Third or Second. thence to
Tatnall, thence to Front and all avail
able points.
"a HldJOIIly VI tuc idIsc luuuotiibi oo-
tablishments and nearly all the impor-
tant sewer vents of the city lie contigu-
Gus to this route the water from this
pipe would furnish such manufactures
an ample supply during the day, and
by means of a system Of branch pipes
could be discharged into these sewer,
during the night, thus saving all tn"
pumped basin water now devoted to
these purposes.
The same natural and irrevocable
law which conveys the llmpid waters
of the historic stream from its source in
the distant highlands which urges it
swiftly forward through scenes of
sylvan beauty where it would fain
linger forever; and which sends it
sweeping past our city, wi also convey
its waters through these pipes in a pure
and powerful volume. Let the ground
be examined, and if Providence has
placed Il natural water supply at our
doors, let us follow the wise example
of several other large cities in our
country, and accept his gift with graft
tude. Respectfully AQUA.

Yesterday AFTERNOON While Allen
Speakman's wagon was standing neal
tha p. W. & B. Railroad extension over
Market street bridge, his horse took
fright at a passing locomotive and
started to run off. When he reached
the bridge the wagon came in contact
with it and was upset and badly broken
The collision checked the horse, and he
was captured by a man named Miller.

One of the most attractive places In
this city is Joseph Stoeckles, on King
street. He conceived the idea hat the
appearance of his bar and pool room
was not in keeping with the reputation
of hi, beer, so he concluded to bring in
the services of Rosin " Bro, the wall
decorators on Second street. The con-
sequence is that his place is now blaze
of gold, being one of the finest jobs Of
paper hanging in the city.

OBsrRUCTING THE STREET.
The Case Of Andrew Conner-Hea eaf
1ng l4nss Evening.


Some time ago On account Of the cotn
plants made by several parties doing
business on Fourth street, between
French and Market streets, the drivers
Of furniture cars who had been accus.
toned to use that locality AZ a stand for
their wagons, were ordered TO move TO
Fourth below French, or on French
street above Fourth. The greater num-
Der complied with the order, but An.
drew Conner, who has an Office in II. f.
Pickles store, would still have his
wagon stop In front of that place, or in
the immediate vicinity.
Complaint WAS made abont noon on
Sat urlay to Chief Hawkins, and he, in
company with officer Cathcart, proceed
ed to the place and found the wagon in
charge of young man. Mr.. Conner
was not about, and the Chief ordered
officer Cathcart to get in the wagon and
drive up to the Delaware House
sta bles, and have 1t locked up.
When Mr. Conner heard of this be
went to the Mayors Office to have his
team released, aud was told by the
Chief that a warrant had been issued
for bis arrest. The hearing was post.
poned until last evening, when the de-
fendant was represented by Harry
Sharpley, Esq. When the case was
called Mr.. Conner was not present, and
two officers were sent for him. They
returned in few minutes, accompanied
by Mr.. Conner, and the Mayor said,
you are fined 81 for contempt Of Court
in not being present when your name
was called"
The case was then taken up, and
several witnesses testified to the fact OF
Mr.. COnner's wagon standing on Fourth
street near Market. One witness said
that he would always move away when
told, but would return in short time.
On the part of the defense, H. +.
Picksls testified that Conner had an
Off ce In his store, where he received
orders. He had given Mm permission
to let the wagon stand in front of his
place, but on account of the building
that Is being erected next door, he had
been obliged to remove it to the other
side of the street. Several witnesses
were examined to prove that the wagon
had not been standing more than ten
was in charge Of driver when 1t was
seized by order Of the Chief.
Mr.. Sharpley contended that his
client had not violated any law in
having his wagon standing on the street
In pursuit of his business, but if he had
then the Adams Express Company, and
every business man who had wagon
violated it in allowing their wagons tc
stand n front of their respective places
of business. If this was good law, II
would operate the same on the profess
sional man, who allows his carriage tC
stand in front of his office, or any other
place OH the street. He also cited several
laws to show that a wagon or vehicle OF
any kind, with horse attached to it, is
not all obstruction.
The Mayor differed with these views,
and imposed fine of 81 and costs, from
which an appeal was taken, and the
case will be tried I'M Court.
Mr. Conner was then heard on a
charge of disorderly conduct preferred
by officer Cathcart, who alleged that he
had used threatening language to him
whilehe was searching for the witnesses.
He was adjudgsd guilty, and fined 81
and costs.

Last week several INSCRIPTIONS PHI
ladeiphians attempted to sell on our
streets some Cough Candy on which
they had willfully neglected to put the
U. s. Revenue Stamps. OF course,
Uncle Sam speedily fined them and con-
fscated their stock. Yesterday ano her
chap thought to fill his pockets with
suudry change by trading on the wide
spread and well known reputation of
DR.. Bulls Cough Syrup. Armed with
il goodly supply Of his choicest
" iIeneyed Herb Drops, claiming
them to he "prcpar"d by Or. Bulls
original recipe,' he takes his stand on
one of the thorouglfares of our city,
reasoning in this way: DR.. Balls Cough
Syrup sells always, everywhere, and to
everybody; ergo, these Honeyed
Herb Drops" made from the recipe of
DR.. Bull, will roll me up such nice
little fortune lllnt-this illusory day
dream is suddenly ended by the appear
ance on the scenes of the representatives
of the genuine Or Bulls Cough Syrup.
Whereupon the fellow is co PEELED to
beat % sudden retreat and to leave his
spurious goods on the field. Moral
Unsrrupulous dealers, and vendors Of
fraudulent limitations will find it quite
as dangerous to infringe the Patent
Rights IF Bulls Cough Syrup, as 10
break the Revenue Laws of Uncle Sam.
