Some of our customers are wasting water
to an alarming extent, and any one report
ing them will confer favor on us, and the
parties SO violating our rules and their con-
tract with us will be promptly closed off
Persons paying for hose privileges have the
right to use water at the rate of one cent
per 100 gallons-for instance, if customer
pays 81 so per month he is entitled to uso
1873 gallons per each day of "a hours during
the ontire year-but must not exceed this
amount on any day. An ordinary I inch
hose, and nozzle with + inch tip, passes
under our pressure eco pounds per square
inch) 700 to 1000 gallons per hour, and
our largest consumers only pay for the priv
elege of using, say 1000 gallons per day.
Any one using more than this is violating
our rules and if reported, and it is proven,
they will be promptly closed off, in no case
will the names of persons so reporting be

LIppincott's Monthly Magazine.

The June number OF Lippincott's Month
| ly Magazine Is largely devoted 10 tho labor
question. Mr.. Fred Perry Powers foresees
the coming of "Tho Industrial Republic, v
under which the laboring classes will get O
larger share OF tho fruits of their labor than
they do now. He looks upon the present
| troubles as necessary attendants upon even
the most orderly social revolutions. There
Is no cause for alarm. The labor agitators
are no doubt doing n great many unwiso
aud some wrong things, but we inherit our
political liberties from men OF whom the
same might be said. The final outcome OF
the struggle will DO beneficial 10 all. "We
shall gradually alter our industrial organi-
zation," he concludes, It'll. in the course
of years, wo shall find we are living in an
industrial republic, having in the period Of
transition got rid of great deal OF ooono-
mic rubbish, Just as our ancestors got rid Of
q good deal of political rubbish-haying
done, like our ancestors, a good many I'M
wise and some wrong things, and having
destroyed good many so-caled corner
stones Of human society, which were found
to be only additions to the weight and not
at all to tho strength of the social structure;
and as the result of all this We shall be
vastly better and moro comfortable. But
nobody will then have such immense power
in the commercial and industrial work as a
good many have now, and for them and
their heirs tho change will be inconvenient;
Just as the popular uprisings in Europe
during the last fifty years have thrown q
good many kings out of employment, and
doomed good many heirs-apparent to pass
their lives in the ranks of ordinary humani-
ty." To the Experience Meeting, Martin
Irons contributes an photographed sketch,
my Experience in the Labor Movement"
written with o franlSness and sincerity
which make it very entertaining. "Some
Experiences Of Working. Girl" another
article in the same department, is power
full and pathetic appeal on behalf of the ill
paid factory girls, by one who has seen and
suffered the wretchedness she commser-
ates. 1.-THE Experiences of Street-Car
Conductor" is noteworthy from the fact that
the writer finds nothing to complain of in
his position, but contrasts it favorably with
the lot of thousands of his fellow-beings.
Under the head of "a Plea for the Spells
System" George Walton Green gives an
amusing burlesque of the reasonings of the
average political "war-horse" against Civil
Service Reform. John Turner's Inyen-
ton" is n capital sensation story of the
Hugh Conway type. There ID some excel
lent poetry. In the Monthly Gossip, W.
H. Babcock advances startling views on the
Mormon question, and there are other
bright discussions af current topics.

THE MARKETS,
Leading Features Of the Operations In
Stocks Yesterday.


NEW YoRK, July 26.--As was expected
on all sides the stock market was dull
one, almost barren Of news and with very
little life, except in Northern Pacific, Texas
Pacific, Reading and Consolidated Gas, in
which special causes contributed TO make
these usually quiet stocks active. The gem
orally active list, comprising tho Changers,
coal stocks, and trunk lines, was content
with secondary position. Advices from
Philadelphia to-day stated that the sale Of
lands by Northern Pacific had been arranged
and rumors I'm regard to the contest for
control Of the latter company were given
color by the activity and strength In the
common stock.
A story. was set afloat early in the morn
Ing that rival to the Consolidated
jas Company was to be established In the
city and the stock was weak In the early
dealings, but later the decision by Attorney
General O'Brien In favor Of the company
was announced, which started q buying
movement In the stock which lifted II
nearly three points. The story that Mr..
Gowen had had a conference with Mr..
Morgan met with official denial to-day,
but rurnors Of important negotiations on
foot between the opposing parties in Read
Saturday throughout the entire day.
Before noon dizziness reigned and prices
rallied, dull and fairly steady market sue
ceeding, which continued until the last
hour, when a decided upward turn took
place, the market finally closing firm at
about the best figures Of the day.
