inches. These are, also, operated by one
engine and pump, and are well worth Wis
ltlng. a ten-inCh rotary pump Il in use
the capacity Of which is said TO be 2,0OC
gallons per minute. The stream flowing
from it is very large, and the water clear
and sparkling. and very grateful to the
taste. Ii has the appearance and taste o!
being pure, and is cold enough for drinking
purposes. No one can see it without an
involuntary disgust for the muddy Sacra-
mento water with which the people of thl
city are daily regaled. The grounds ut this
point are somewhat higher than at the
Reed well heretofore mentioned, and the
water does not rise TO as near the surface as
there. This, and the further fact that the
water at the Reed we'll appears to rise 10 a
similar hight as the Sanbora artesi&n
wells, leads to the belief that all these three
groups of wells are supplied from the same
strata, and that the supply is ample for the
fullest demands upon il for the city's use,
should it be found, upon analysis being
made TO be suitable for domestic Use. One
thing is at least established, and that is, that
the entire region on the cast of Sacramento
has a supply of water from which every
acre can be irrigated and put under the
highest productive condition, and which
will, no doubt, he speedily done. The party
also visited the well at the Reed place, and
brought sample of the water TO the city for
examination.

Guided to arrest w H Martin who arrived
here about a week ago from Stockton, on
suspicion of his having been connected with
the matter, as he had been in Dudrock S
company Tuesday afternoon and night
more than any one else. On his room be-
ing searched it was aSccrtaincd that he had
removed his valiSe to some other place, but
it was Subseq uentIy found, and contained
among its contents lady's circular cloak
which had been stolen from a room in The
Grand Hotel Tuesday afternoon, 81 in
