OUR DRINKING WATER.

The point is made this morning By
letter from e. b. Frazer, which il
published in another column CT this
impression, that algae would probably
mot be 60 prolific in the bed Of the
Brandy if there was less good soil
manure, etc. allowed to lie in ir. Mr..
&razrr says that there are 10000 hu.
man beings living in tie valley of
The Brandy between Market Street
bridge and Coatesville, Pa, and there
are at least that many animals living
in the same area. To be sure this is
mot very dense population for three
hundred square mules or more, but it
rs too de nse for the constantly dimin.
ishing how OF water in the Brandy
wine. Then, too, the stream is utilized
at every turn for manufacturing rur-
poses and, Of course, wherever it is
brought in contact with the instru-
ments and elements of human craft it
is soiIed
The question is whether the time has
not come for Wilmington to look else
where for it's drinking water Many
low lying towns are turning to arte-
sian wells; but wi 30 many beautiful
streams in close proximity to the city
1t seems almost superhuous to think Of
boring into the earth for water. 1t is
recalled, TOO, in this connection that
the city only year or two ago spent
&60,0 for water rights on the Brandy
wine, which would become inn
paired in value II the water works
were to be removed But this fact
should not be permitted to weigh in
the presence of the danger to health
which is now hanging over the com
munity. Unless the city eau be secured
In the possession of good and ample
supply of drinking water lis industrial
development, which has been so great
and substantial during the last quarter
OF a century, will be arrested at this
point. Ia this particular the present
condition Of our water is almost al
fatal 10 the continued prosperity OF the
city as the passage Of the Mills bill
would be and il bshooves every right
thinking citizen to apply his best
judgment TO the problem.

head sometimes covering the lower part Of
the facel, was wrapped gay kerchief. Seven
Of tke girls, however, who always stood near
the head OF the line, wore wells OF white tis-

connection with any outer garment: thew
fitted the arm closely, and were Of some silk

Most Of the girls wore slippers, but a few
were barefoot The whole costume was
bright with harmonious colors
About sixty Of these maidens danced to-

for hours. The dance was led by one or two
young men ct the head of the line-attached

become really articulate. The steps were

Speaking Of old time law practice, JUDGE
Ranney, Of Cleveland, tells the following
story Of Daniel Webster webster. saws
he charged big fees for his day, but. as the
most eminent lawyer in tho country, he was
always in great demand One day. when he
was at his home in Marshfeld, Mass. a
Rhode Island Yankee came to get him to
try case for him at Providence, and, Yam
kee like, he wanted to know beforehand how
much he would have to pay. Webster recl-
oned up the time the case would probably
tako and the expense Of going and re-
turning from Providence, and told the
Rhode Islander his terms. The man said:
THAT is a sight Of money. senator, but /
will hire you at that price for that number
Of days if you viii let me sublet You for the
extra time TO other clients should my case be
settled before the time fixed endsn
To this Webster agreed, with laugh. He
tried the Yankees case, got through with it
in one-third OF the time stated, and the other
twothiris tie Yankee let out at such ratey
that he not only got his own case for moth
ing but made a handsome little pile in addi-

Some OF Ingalls, best thoughts come ont in
his private conversation, and | give YOU a
few OF his sayings, which are so character
lstlc that they stick in my mind. They
cover many talks and numerous subjects:
civilization is but a veneer The institu-
ilons Of society are stuck upon an edifico OF
baroarisIn, plaster ornaments that continu-
ally peel and crumble, revealing, through
the rude windows of crime, disorder and
violence, the rough framework Of brutality
and ruilianism.n
The gentleman is a vanished savage
The naughty dame and the languishing belle
are but lacquered squaws Beneath the
daintiest Alexandra Jouvin gloves are con
eeaied tho claws Of the tiger. Fangs lurk
behind lips that breathe loves softest sylla-
bles. Under many blonde coifTure lies the
cobra de capello."
mo gentleman, had he the power Of decid-
lng whether or not to accept life, the so called
boon Of existence, knowing its joys ana sor-
rows, its struggles its filthiness and the ever
constant effort to keep itself from being OBJ
noxious to others, would do so.n
The malignant forces in this life are pre-
dominant, and mans strife against them is
vain. Tho height to which he can rise is
limited, and it is all he can do to keep from
groveling in tho dustn
Mature does not caro- for individuals. and
the individual has little to expect from ma
ture. She disposes Of her sewerage Of human
lty just as great city does of its garbage
She throws the unthinling clods of man
kind into the gutter, and they are carted
away rs though they were not flesh and
blood.n
As to relgion-what know we? Look at
the Chinese They number one-fourth the
population OF the whole world, and occupy
one-tenth OF the earth's surface. There are
more Mohammedans than Christians. and
the followers Of Buddha outnumber Us. These
minds ell come from the same source. They
work IL their own ways, and who can tell
which is the right wayg | believe Chris

A MOVE FOR SPACE.

For some time past renovations have been
carried on in the building on the corner of
Military plaza, Nos. 4, o, s and 10, and Nos. IL
and Is, TrevinO Avenue, formerly occupied by
Mr. f. Abrahams. Mr.. Jacob Dullnig is now
the occupant. Mr.. Dullng lisa veteran in the
grocery business, having for long time done
business in the twO-story house on the north
east corner of Military plaza. Mr.. Dullnig,
owing to fair and liberal dealings with his GUS
TONER'S has been forced by constant pres
sure Of space, to enlarge his stock and seek
for a more rOOmy house. When LIGHT rep
resuntativG called at the new quarters he
found MIR. Dullnig and his assistants Ousily
employed in waiting upon customers. The
renovation has been made so complete that II
is quite surprise to see and admire the ar
engagements of the new store.
Mr.. Dullnig invites all his old friends and
patrons in the city and country, as well as the
public generally, to call on him and become
convinced that his prices will compare favor
ably with any in the city.
In addition to a fine and well selected stock
of general staples, he will constantly keep on
hand full and complete assortment of fancy
goods of all kinds, while his connection with
the surrounding country people and farmers
generally, will enable him to keep full and
complete supply of country produce at all
times. The LIGHT bespeaks for Mr.. Dullnig
success in his new and enlarged establish
mcnt.
