Water BY the Inch.

San Bernardino (Cal.) Times.
A statute or legalip Inch of water IN Gall
tornia is the water discharged through an
opening one inch square under a pressure
of four Inches from the center of the ori-
fee to the top of the box or point of over
flow. This is equivalent to .O2 cubic foot
discharges per second, 1.2 cubic feet per
minute and ~ cubic feet per hour. To
reduce to gallons, multiply by 2, 2S, which
gives about 8 gallons per minute.
The "miners inch" runs from
5 to 7 inches pressure, varying
with locality. The great hydraulic COM
panies, however, have agreed upon q
Ginch pressure, which gives by actual
measurement, as made by Hamilton
Smith at the North Bloomfield, 2,260 8
cubic feet per twenty. feur hours, or "a 2
cubic feet per hour. In reducing to
Inches the water stored In reservoirs the
practice is to allow 100 cubic feet per
hour. For irrigstlng heads the pres
sure runs all the way from three
to eight inches among commercial
bitches. The latter is-or was re.
centlv-in use by the National Canal
company, Sacramento county. That
company measures through an oritice a
inches deep, with 6 inches additional te
overflow. In regard to the measuring
box, the practice Is quite uniform. i
should be SO large that the Inflow will
not create Iercepub'e current ssof com
motion. The opening is usually 2 inches
In depth, Its length being regulated by a
tight-ftting slide, each half inch beinl
equivalent to an Inch of water. Th
edges are smooth, and, If necessary, ar
chamfered on the outside.

AN ANTI.ENGLIsH DEMONSTRATION AND A
WILD CANCAN.
Special Telegram to The BEE.
NEW YORK, July. 16. The Herald's Paris
cable says: The riotous anti English manifes
tation kept the neighborhood of Avenue de T.
Opera and Rue st. Ponore in an uproar all
last evening. The inhabitants OF Rue Aar-
gentnial and Rue de l. Echelle had organized
an al fresco ball in the street, in honor of the
taking of the bastile. For some reason the
police refused to authorize the ball and the
report got about that the fun had been forbid
den because the English dodgers at hotel Nor
mandy protested against their slumber being
disturbed by the jewellers. An exasperated
crowd of several thousand people quickly col
lected outside of the hotel yelling, "Down
with England" threatening the obnoxious
britons with bodily violence. Towards mid
night things looked SO black that 200 police
men were sent down to the scene of the riot
and ordered to charge the crowd. At last,
however, it was explained to them that the
English had been maligned and never at
tempted to stop the merriment. Permiesicn
wss then given the crowd to start their ball.
A brass band was improvised. and the dis
turbsnce which for II time bid fair to lead to
an international complication terminated in
a wild can-can.
