ARTISAN WELLS.

Fire Commissioners DelanO. Prendergast
and Parker with Chief Black. went yes
terday afternoon to Yoerg's brewery, with
engine No. 6, to test the arteSian well which
was bored last fall at that point.
This well is six inches in diameter. 200
feet deep below the first floor of the brew
cry, and raises water about four feet high
in the second story. Which makes the water
stand in the well when full 30 feet. Chief
Black had made a regular hydrant suction
connection with the well pipe at point
four feet below the brewery floor. which
would give twenty feet head.
The test was made with two one and
4 Quarter-nch streams, throwing $50 feet
horizontal and 30 feet vertical.
y test was then made with two streams,
open butts, through the Observation-Disclosures
iire hose Engine No. did its best. but
the water kept coming right along with no
let up. This satisfies the commissioners
50 we'll that the supply of water is there.
that they will take one of the largest fire
steamers on tomorrow afternoon at
o'clock and see if four streams and the more
powerful suction can exhaust il any and if
~. how much.
The city council. board Of water COM
mi>SionerS and all persons interested are
invited 10 witness this next test with the
big engine and see what they think about il.
This experiment yesterday decides that a
good. strong. steady and cheap supply Of
water can be obtained on the West side for
ire purposes. and hyirants should be
placed in all that part of the city laying on
the river fiat and first bench.

SMELLING AND UNIVERSITY AVENUES.
Mr.. .Oppenheim offered resolution to
the effect that the secretary be instructed to
request the city council and the county
commissioners to commence to put Smelling
avenue and University avenue in repair at
once. in order that they may be in a cOndi-

expressed the same views, and the reSolu-

From the Nashville Banner.
When Gen. Shermans army was at Colds
.boro, n. c., Gen. Sherman made visit to
the headquarters Of Gen. Howard. While
there Gen. Sherman felt the need of small
draught of whisky to drive off the malarial
effects of the climate on his system. Now
all the officers of the army new Of Gen. How
ards rigid temperance proclivities and were
strict in their respect for them. Gen. Sher-
man knew there was no whisky in Gen.
Towards quarters, and therefore did not
mention his wants TO Gen. Howard. Pres
emily DR.. John Moore, the medical director,
came in, and after little conversation Gen.
Sherman gave him the wink and said,
doctor, have you seidlitz powder in your
ouarters!'' The doctor answered that be
had. Gen. Howard spoke up and said :
"Gen. Sherman it is not necessary to go to
the doctors quarters, l have plenty of seii-
litz powders here, and good ones, too. /
viii get you one" If there was anything in
Gen. Towards quarters that Gen. Sherman
did not want it was q seidlitZ powder. and
therefore he said TO Gen. Howard: Never
mind, general; give yourself no trouble"
Howard was then getting the powder and
glasses Of water ready. ~ will be going by
Moore's quarters after while" DIR. Moore
was great wag and quickly took in the sit
uation and became q party to the joke on
Gen. Sherm an. He said TO Gen. Sherman I:
''By the way, general, don't think / have
a seidlitz powder in my quarters and you
had better take the one Gen. Howard has :"
By this time Gen. Howard had the powder
all ready for use and handed the glasses to
Gen. Sherman. Rather than offend Howard
by saying he meant whisky, he drank the
fOamiDg stuff down much to his own disgust,
to the satisfaction Of Gen. Howard and 10
the amusement Of the staff officers.

ADeIicafe Question.

A new and very interesting question in
connection with the ''code of honor'' has
been raised, and it promises to absorb the
attention of our Southern friends for some
ime to come.
About two weeks ago Messrs. Brown and
Smith, two prominent colonies of Elizabeth
court, Va, went out to fight duel. OF the
cause of the duel it is unnecessary to speak,
and it is sufficient to say that Col. Brown was
the challenged party, and that he chose pistols
as the weapons.
The duel was fought at $50 a. m. The
men were placed in position by Coils. Thomp-
son and Robinson, while DR.. White, with his
1nstrume nt-case, took up a safe position be-
hind tree. AT the word both of the COM
batants fired simultaneou Col. Browns
shot pierced the tree behind which the sur
geon was sheltered, while Col. Smiths took
effect behind the shoulder of COW that was
feeding in a neighboring field.
dispute Immediately arose. Col. Smith
expressed himself entirely satisfied on the
ground that his shot had drawn blood, as the
surgeon certified after an examination of the
COW. Col. Brown, on the other hand, de-
manded another shot, asserting that he was
nOo satISuSu, however ulucu SOl culLu
might be, and that the shooting of COW by
one duelist could not satisfy the honor Of
another. The question whether another
shot should be exchanged was argued at great
length, and was still undecided when the
owner of the COW reached the ground and in
formed the duelists that his COW was dead
and that he wanted to be paid for her.
Col. Brown now conceded that his honor
would be satisfied provided Col. Smith would
pay for the COW. Col. Smith, however,
stoutly maintained that the shot which took
effect on the cow must be considered as hay
ng ia ken effect on the body of his adversary
and that it was unheard of that duelist who
killed his adversary on the field of honor
should be compelled to pay for him. Sooner
Than pay for the COW, Col. Smith was ready
exchange another shot as soon as the
farmer could find sheltering tree. The
dispute waxed hotter and hotter. and, when
finally host of the farmers friends APP
pearcd with pitchforks, both duelists ran
away.
A court Of honor is now seeking to ascer-
ain whether duelists are liable for COWS
killed in a fair fight and whether the killing
of a cow can be held to be complete vindi-
cation of the honor of the killer. There is no
precedent under the code which establishes
the relation of COWS to dueling, and the de-
cision of the court of honor will be awaited
with much anxiety.

Gnffey's Cat.
San Francisco Post.

San francisco Post
Last Monday morning, as lot of up
towners were waiting on the wharf for the
China steamer to get in, old Prof. Guffey
drove up in the office buggy and solemnly
fitted out an apparently heavily weighted
bag securely tied at the mouth.
"What have you got there, Professor!"
asked friend.

gravely.

cobblestones and cat that :tas made my

''Going to fix her this time, eh?'

'Come, take drink first, Guffey,' said
his friend Boggs, and the crowd followed
into saloon on the corner. While the beer
was being drawn Boggs slipped quietly back
and united the bag. AS soon as the indie
structble cat had skipped up the street Boggs
retied the bag and hurried back to the sa-
loon. Pretty soon the crowd emerged and
helped Guffey to carry his heavy load to the
extreme edge of the wharf, from which it
was solemnly dumped.

professor, sadly; "but the fact is / haven't
