Nine. narrios' Methods of Life.

Nine suppose it to be more proper to
style her 'Senora"-Barrios attracted nv
attention on the drive to-day. She had her
troup of children with her, tributes TO her
marriage with Senior Barrios, erstwhile
fugitive president of the Colombian con
federation This lady has an interesting
history. Her husband is said to have left her
S2,OOO,OO0, which is very probably within the
mark, and she is enjoying it in truly roval
style. She has several of the most elegantly
appointed apartments at the West End hotel,
with music and attendants galore at her bid
ding.
Ihave often thought, when musing on her
methods of life, what a difference there Is be
tween republicanism among the Latin races
and with the Anglo-Saxons. There anything
approaching power is autocratic and aristo-
cratic; here ingratitude and neglect are often
est the rewards of merit and service. Sonora
Barrios is the widow of n smart ex-prcsident Of
an insignificant and poyerty-stricken Central
American travesty on nation, and she may
revel to her hearts content in all that wealth
affords or an aspiration for swelldom desires
But Mrs. Grant widow of the greatest gen
eral of the age and Of an eX-president of the
greatest republic and one of the richest IA
tons on earth, is compelled to retirement and
obscurity, and III her modest life is almost for

John w. Mackay, the California Bo-
nanza King, has on foot a postal tele-
graph scheme worthy of the attention OF
all business men. He is very ambitious,
and hopes to build a telegraph line from
New York to San Francisco. Mr.. Mackay
promises to forward twenty words from
New York to San Francisco for one
dollar, and he predicts that inside three
years time business men will use his
line of wire for all correspondence in
preference to the mails. Time is money
to most active men, and should this
scheme be carried out, Mr.. Mackay' s
line will receive the patronage justly
due such a magnificent enterprise.

Honest Sewers.

What is the use of trying to stuff down
our threats that Palatka must have a
system of thirty, or twenty-five, or
twenty, or even fifteen-inch sewers No
engineer, especially one who has any
knowledge of sanitary science, would
advise such size sewers even for a town
of &c, 900 people. Now, it Is no use to
argue large sewers for Palatka. For
contractor, it is inst nuts to build thirty
inch sewers, but it is just anything but
nuts for the town paying for the work.
IL any reputable engineer, one making
a specially of sanitary matters, can step
out and show us the advantage of
thirty-inch sewer over a twelve-inch
sewer for Palatka, we will take back
seat. But when such an authority
authority we say-as Col. Warning
shows us the utter tcorthlessnesS of large
sewer lines, we are disposed to believe
that the advice of contractors is quite
thrown away, when refutation of Col.
Warnings theories is attempted. Then
S12, 900 per mile for sewers is a little
rough-just a little cheeky. We don't
want any contractor coming here and
telling us that we must do this or do
that. The thirty-inch sewer argument
is just little too fiimsy-has no sound
ness, is devoid of sense, and the sewers
won't do the work.

y DissraceruI state OF Things,

The recent investigation under the
auspices of the New York State Tenement
House Association, discloses the unweI-
come fact that certain districts in New

houses abound-are in most horribly
filthy condition. In the Tenth Ward
live no less than $4,000 people. That an
idea may be had of the utter misery,

The wells in Algeria have been bored

these 15S or more flow, the water being
at temperature of 20 to 70 deg. Fab
At Liverpool, England, one six-inch
well, 1G1 feet deep, flows 10000 gal
Ions per day, or a,083 gallons per minute.
At Passy, France, a well flows 5,5s2, 600
gallons per twenty-four hours, or 1876

500 feet deep, and vary il a.. .....y of
flow from 1000 gallons to 1876, 900 gallons
in twenty-four hours, at temperature
varying from so to 50 deg. Fab.
The well at Pesth is a most remarkable
boring. The present depth is 3,120 feet,
and work is still progressing. The daily
flow is 176,0 gallons, and the temper
ature is 1853 Fab. 1t is purposed contin-
uing to deepen the well until temper
ature of 176' Fab. is obtained. Various
wells in the oil and salt districts of Penn
sylvania and New York have reached
depths varying from 1900 to 9, 600 feet.
At Jacksonville the wells at the water
works flow nearly 1000 and 500 gallons
per minute each. The well on the prem
ises of Ex-Gov. Drew is but four inches
diameter and flows over $50 gallons per
minute. The temperature Of these wells
is about 70 to TO Fab.
y fact it is, and seemingly a curious
one to some, that barometrical fluctua-
tions affect the flow of artesian wells.
When the barometer falls, as we say,
the air in the crevices and pores of the
rocks expands, and forces the water out
in increased quantities; when, on the
other hand, the barometer rises, the air
becomes denser and the flow decreases,
due to atmospheric pressure.
1t should be said that several of these
borings have been sunk for the purpose
of finding coal. Some have been drilled
with a rig known as ''cable TOOLS" some
with ''club drills COR chisels), and by
draulic letting machines;" others with
"ball drills" and still others with ''dia-
mond drills" Each special rig is adap.
ted to special work, and what will stick
one method will not affect another.
Each has its advocates, and all do good
work.
