At Oceanside an artesian well was sunk
to a depth OF about 400 teet. No rise OF
water was found and the water IN the
well now is said to be brackish. At Fra
Zier, little further south, the well went
down all right and q raise OF water was
struck at about 300 feet. AT about 400
feet stratum of cement was encountered,
which was IA feet thick. When the tools
got through this stratum they struck a
hollow or cave and dropped quite a dis
lance, and the waters OF the well rushed
down into this cavern. The bottom of
the well was plugged up and the supply

A HEAD wAITERs ROMANCE.
Beautifully Behaved, Refined and
Unassumtn&.

Beautifully BehaVed, Refined and
Upassuming.
The best story yet comes to me from
Saratoga, says Minneapolis Tribune cor
respondent.
A matron and a marriageable daughter
OF my acquaintance have been staying all
summer at one of the largest hotels.
Nine. La Mere has long since learned the
charm there is to exclusiveness, either
real or apparent, and practices it accord
lngly. During the first part of the sum-
mer they sat at table quite alone by
themselves, reserving all sociability for
the drawing room and piazza. Several
weeks ago, however, the hotel became
! crowded, and the head waiter asked or
them permission to place at their table a
new arrival for whom they were anxious
to make room. They objected but were too
| polite to say so.
AT the next meal the new arrival made
| his appearance, A most refined, respect
able, but unassuming looking man.
After few days the mother allowed
| herself to be gradually drawn INTO des-
ultOry conversation ana the daughter I'M
bent rs well.
Very soon inquiries began TO be made
by other marrageable daughters mann
mas and polite hints for inuoductions as
we'll. Madame asserted she did not know
his nama. That gave ZeSt to the hunt. she
must find out.
AT dinner one night she said to him that
they hoped to meet him at the mop" later
on; she would be glad to present him to
some pleasant people.
~ am very sorry, madam, but you real
ly must excuse me. 1 am in deep mourn
ing and trouble, and do not feel IN the
mood for gaveties.'
Naturally madame" excused him
both to herself and TO her friends, and the
manageable daughter bad 1t quite her
own way.
Things went on smoothly enough, but
very, very slightly. They learned his
name and called him by it, but c0nh-
dences went no further. So beautifully
| behaved, so refined, so unassuming he
was that madame and mademoiselle both
| became convinced that he was infinitely
better than he seemed. One morning at
breakfast their table companion an
nounced, In the quietest sort OF way,
that he left that day His sad holiday
was over, he said. He must return to the
dreadful city.
"But, madam, >" he said, "you have been

At Mr.. Irving's eption the other night

in pretty story about Miss Ellen Terry.
One night in New York little deformed
man came behind the scenes to present
Mss Terry with tribute IN the shape OF
a book. This was a beautifully bound
volume containing cleverly etched port
rats of the actress and a number of pas
sages from her various parts, finely en-
crossed. The froBtispieoe represented
four people sitting in the front row OF the
gallery, absorbed IN the performance, and
by these four people. two brothers and a
sister of the little deformed
man, the hook has been entirely
manufactured. They were at the
theatre every night and ussd to sit in the
best seaps: but as the expense became
serious they gradually went aloit, like
Tom Bowling, till they settled in the gal
lery, where they were TO De found nightly

OF much LOVING care she burst int tears,

lighted audience. 1t was the larg-
est audience ever assembled in the
building. The seats were filed,
the aisles were packed and stand

immense satisfaction. Franks and

repeated applause of the audience
by his incompatible comedy. In
fact there was not feature of the

The music was superb, and there
was nothing to offend the severest
taste. Another immense audience

THE STEAM LAUNDRY.
An Interesting Meeting Of the
stock holders

The call for a meeting of the
Steam Laundry stockholde .
brought together quite a number of
the shareholders. The Trustees
were present and made a report
showing that the institution had
cost over $4,000 and was debt in
the neighborhood Of $1,000 The
Trustees had borrowed money at
the Bullion & Exchange Bank, on
their personal notes.
The laundry had run behind the
first three weeks, as was expected,
but was now paying expenses and
making something over. The three
experts who had come up from be,
low had gone back to San Francisco
and had impaired snfficient knowl-
edge to enable the home employees
to do the work as rapidly and we'll
as any laundry on the Coast
"hc question of further reduc-
ton III prices came up. H. S. Ma
son said that the Chinese laundries
had so mixed up the wash business
that j. was hard to straighten it
ont. For instance man with
wife and one child would contract
with a Chinaman who did his wash
ing at s. month. He would f.
nally have his wife, six children
and lot of relations boarding on
him and his washing was just the
same, SIS month One man
brought in 100 pieces and com
planned at the high price. He |
had been getting it done by Chi /
naman at a dollar week less
than one cent a piece. The laun-
dry did not want that work, he be-
lieved that a Chinese laundry
would burst up if it had enough of
it.
Some people with three or four
children insisted in putting white
lresses on them perhaps twice a
lay each, all futed and filagreed
Town the front, Such clothes cost
money to wash and were frequently
'ent in by people who could much
better afford brown dresses. They
lad done family washing at % per
.ent. less than the San Francisco
ates and in some family washing
hey proposed to give So per cent.
Ihe question of levying an assess
nent on the stock was discussed.
t was thought that dollar a share
7ould be enough and as it took 60
avs to collect under the law it
7ould be the same as 80 cents a
lonth. In few months the debt
ould be paid off and the stock
,ould then begin to returned divi-
ends.
The Trustees asked that as a
natter of business Committee of
hree be appointed to investigate
he accounts and purchase of sup
lies. This the stockholders de-
lined to do as they had perfect
onfdence in the management.
he Trustees insisted and Messrs
eet, Garrard and Herrick were'ap-
ointed.
Mr.. Singleton said that he be
eyed he could get man from be-
