The Water Supply.

Evidently residents of the city are using
water in very reckless manner at present,
and without regard to the city ordinance
relative to the matter The month of June
is but about one-third over, and, owing to
the late rains and the hight of the river.
much irrigation would scarcely seem to be
needed, yet more water is being pumped
than has before been known in the CITY.
Ordinarily two of the Holly pumps have
sufficed to do the work at night but now
the entire gang has to be kept in service.
few mornings since an alarm of fire oc-
CURED at o'clock, and it was found nee
essary to reinforce the Holly with the
Stevens pump to keep up the fire pressure
When the fire alarm occurred Thursday at
5:15 P. NJ. the Stevens and Holly were both
run at full speed, but only As to A. pounds
water pressure could be obtained ANY one
can see that it is not policy to tax the
water machinery too severely, for break
down would be disastrous. Present indica-
tons are that the city will before long be
compelled to increase her resources at the
water-works, as there are times now when
100000 gallons of water are pumped daily
for ordinary use But citizens can postpone
the necessity by obeying the city ordinance,
which provides that water for irrigation
purposes must only be used between the
hours of and s, morning and evening,
and when an alarm of fire occurs the irri-
gators must shut off their hydrants until
the signal is given that the fire is out. 1t
so imperative that this ordinance be obeyed
that the police have been instructed to ex-
ercise care in enforcing it.

mic Opera House.

John T. Raymonds company presented
to a fair house last night Pincro's capital
comedy that had such long run in Lon
don and similar lease in New York, en-
titled " The Magistrate II is one of the
most original of merry productions, with
situations of the most absurdly ludicrous
character. The scenes are in London, and
concern genteei people who are led into
embarrassing situations by the ROBUSTNESS
of a boy who is inclined to be - fast, but
is checked in time. The company is an
admirable one, Mr.. Raymond at his best
in the leading role and his support
of the best He has lost nothing of the old
time humor, and his comedy art is as clean
cut and sharp. The two leading ladies.
Misses Carey and Standish, are handsome
women, of fine stage presence, and afford
capable support. BY Whiting and Baker
and Sotbern-!hougb the latter is so rapid
in utterauce as to make the effort TO under
stand him unpleasant-there is thoroughly
good work, testifying to skilled comedy
ability and experience in the best schools
of the art. The stage setting was very SUI
perior last night, and very closely realized
interiors true to London life of the order
represented. The Magistrate will be
played at the matinee this afternoon, with
prices 80 to % cents, reserves 25 cents extra
Tonight the new American comedy, For
Congress- Tomorrow night, for "A final
appearance. the company will play Ray
mond's old time favorite, Colonel Sellers, :"
in which he has won honors all over the
land with his There's millions in it." We
have had as good comedy company here,
but not for years, and at no time superior
to this in comedy force, and theater- goers
who enjoy that easy, merry and mirth-pro-
voking style, will be entirely satisfied with
the Raymond company. The troupe came
here frem the East direct, and opens in San
Francisco Monday night.
