The New Water Works,

There was, no doubt, adequate reason
for dellberation and consequent delay In
considering the deficiency estimates for the
new water works. But the committee has
had the estimates before it nearly six months
now, while work has been suspended for
four The past two months have appar+
emily been set apart to give captain Of
engineers opportunity to air theory OF his
own, which every other authority consulted
by the committee, including Colonels Casey
and Craighill, Major Ludlow, aud Gen.
Meigs, have unequivocally condemned. 1t
would seem as If this ought to wind up the
investigation and open the way for imme-
diate action. The hundred or so thousand
of people on the high service levels who
are waiting for the increased water supply
do not like to have their patience tested by
unnecessary waste of time.

settle upon well defined and simple pol
fey, and, uniting on that, refuse absolutely
to sign or favor petitions for subsidiary

"Thore is one reform, of the greatest and

carried at this session II the Knights OF
Labor will demand II with the united voice

been for many years shamcfully wasted for
the benefit Of corporations and land grab.

"Bills are now before the House awaiting
its action which, II they can all become
laws at this session, will reclaim to the pub
lie domain more than hundred million
acres Of land, to be added to the small
remnant Of fifty millions Of arabic acres
which remain after years OF rampant and
unchecked land grabbing. These measures
will also repeal iniquitous laws favoring
land grabbing, and cfTectuully hold here
after all the public domain for homesteads

independence on the land for themselves

PROF. ADLER, when deuouncing the an :

occasion to quote from the census report OF

could find employment II they wanted It,"
But even II only half that number were out

factors which frequently do not combine
with the two former elements OF success.
Indeed, the learned professor is right. Sell

THE WORK ON THE BIG GUN.
A Task Requiring tho Utmost Caro- and
Precision.
[Boston Traveller, May o.

fBoston Traveller, May Gl
The big gun recently cast at the South
Boston Iron Works has been hoisted from
the pit, and having been chipped and the
sand removed from the outside, is to-day
being moved from the ordnance foundry
into the machine shop for finishing In one
Of the large l20-inch lathes. This work
OF finishing requires the utmost skill and
judgment, as the variation from prescribed
measurements in the greater part OF the
work must not exceed $1,000 OF an inch IL
Is to be bored for steel tube, to be In
serted from the breeeh, whose diameter is
about 22 inches, and the length l54 inches.
The total length of the finished gun Is 30
feet.
When completed the gun viii throw m
S00-pound shot with velocity OF some
1,S00 feet per second. With q powder
charge Of 265 pounds the 12.inch breech
loading rifle, 54-ton gun which was sent 10
Sandy Hook last June, has been fred 9S
rounds with most satisfactory results, hav-
ing obtained velocity Of 1850 feet per
second with an S00.pound projectile and
265 pounds powder charge. This rifle is
mounted on q 12-inch Powlett pneumatic
gun carriage, which was built at the South
Boston Iron Works last autumn. This car
riage, whose weight with the gun mounted
on IL Is 9S tons, Is worked entirely by one
man by the system OF compressed air,
owned and patented by the Pneumatic Gun
Carriage Company OF Washington, y. @.
The South Boston Iron Works are now
building a gun loader for this carriage,
which will carry the powder aud projectile
from the magazine 10 the carriage and load
the gun, doing away with any hoisting or
lifting by hand or cranes; and will be
worked entirely by one man. In the ordl-
nance shops Of the South Boston Works the
12-inch 53-ton rife, called the 'Hooped and
Tubed" gun, as the cast-iron body Is to be
banded with two rows OF steel hoops aud
a steel tube inserted from the breach, reach
ing about halfway to the muzzle, is being
rapidly pushed to completion, one row oi
hoops having already been shrunk on aud
the steel tube inserted.
There are 25 OF these steel bands on the
gun when finished, and as IA have alre ld Y
been shrunk In place, the final banding viii!
be completed In about 10 days. The hoops,
or bands, are about ~ inches wide aud three
and one-half inches thick, and their average
weight is about one ton.
In the same shop the steel rifles for the
Atlanta and Chicago are being finished
those for the Atlanta, of 6-inch bore, being
almost completed, while those for the Chi
cago, s-inch bore, are in the earlier stage oi
fabrication.

"The Influence OF Art In Morals and Re-
ligionn was the subject of Rev. Heber New
toms sermon on Sunday evening in his New
York church. Mr. Newton and Prof. Ad-
Ter arc the two men who, from New York
pulpits, have the courage to go to the root
Of great public questions. Neither of them
is as interesting a talker" as Henry Ward
Beecher, but both are much abler scholars
and deeper thinkers than that many-sided
gentleman. Mr.. Newton sees clearly the
utter rubbish Of much that passes for art
and art-criticism to-day. 1t is surprising
how much pulling nastiness, when called by
some art name, passes for beauty, and It is
enough to drive decent man or woman to
Texas or the other place when one sees
many Of the art lovers and listens to little
OF their artless but nauseating twaddle.
Mr.. Newton quoted passage from William
Morris's book, "Hopes and Fears for Art"
which will bear repetition:
We may have splendor of art again, and
with that We may truly praise and honor our
Maker, and with that set forth the beauty and
holiness OF oil that lie has made, but only
after we have strlvcn with our whole heart
spirit OF every child that has no roof to cover
its head from the cold and no walls to guard
its soul from corruption in this our English
land. So you see, my friends, even your art
enthusiasm must quicken in you the enthusi-
asm of humanity, If it be the genuine love Of
the divine beauty, while for us all, even from
art, we may learn that the second great com.
mOndment is this: "Thou shalt love thy neigh.
Dor as thyself"
Most of the art twaddlers in America
France, and England would sneer at the
mention Of humanity in connection Will
art, accordingly Burnes,Jones "sets" the
fashion in pictures of his epicene women
