THE OUTFALL SEWER.
The Right of Way to be Obtain d on
the Surveyors Report.

The Right of Way to be Obtafnsd on
the Surveyors Report.
At the meeting of the City Council
Monday, the matter Of securing a right
of way for the outfall sewer was turned
over to the Sewer Committee to report on
Monday next. This right of way will be
based on the following report of the City
Surveyor:
I have completed the preliminary
SURVEYS for outfall sewer from San Pedro
street at south city boundary along said
boundary, and following the line of the
L. A, and 1. Railroad to the Ballona
creek 35, PIP feet, where bridge will be
necessary; thence leaving the railroad
and passing across the country about
IO.S25 feet to public road leading to
South Santa Monica, thence along public
road about 5000 feet to corner OF post
fence, 1000 feet west of John Charnock's
place, thence about s. 450 w. to the
ocean beach Il, 900 feet, making the en-
tire distance 69,037 feet.
The various gradients found on this
line determine that the sewer shall be of
the following sizes or dimensions: 1902
feet Of 2x3 feet, 5000 feet of feet 2 3
feet 8, 1920 feet of feet s K 4 feet,
14OO0 feet of 3 feet 3 x feet 6, 24,S25
feet of feet x feet. Distance from
San Pedro street to ocean beach, 1907
miles; distance from west city line to
ocean beach, l1.S7 miles. If this is laid
with brick I estimate the cost to be as
1,127, 900 brick at $40 per 1000, laid aoox ,oo
ss.os7 feet of excavation ............ 10000
Bridge at Ballona Greek k.............. 5,OOO
Total ............ $500, 900
If laid with concrete 1 estimate the
cost to be as follows:
Concrete work. k......................... .%z10,o6d
Bridge 5000
Total 1901 ,421
The sewer will discharge 23,76O, 900
gallons in twenty -four hours and it is
safe to say will accommodate at least
200 900 people. The right of way should
be obtained and vested in the city for all
time, SO that if it should be found advis-
able to duplicate this line at any future
period there will be no obstacle in
would suggest that steps be taken to
secure a strip ter feet wide on the south
side of the Los Angeles and Independent
railroad right of way from San Pedro
street west where the railroad right OF
way is very narrow and not sufficient to
allow any way for sewer, but barely suf-
ficient for double track railroad, which
will probably be laid before a great while.
This report is based on preliminary
surveys, but is very close to what should
be final and if the Council desires to go
on with the work, it will please notify
me and will proceed to make final To-
cation of line and map, showing accu-
rately the location and names Of property
owners.

I.ife ON Che Desert,

An arrival from Prescott yesterday,
who trave'e1 over the Atlantic and
Pacific road, says that the heat on the
desert is something frightful. At the
Needles, children on the train were
literally gasping for breath, and it was
impossible to touch piece Of metal ex-
posed to the sun, for it felt as if red-hot.
The officials are unable to obtain white
men to do any section work on the road
anywhere in that district, and even
Cinnamon can scarcely do anything. AS
a result one sees Indians engaged in the
pursuit, and are said to prove admirable
workmen. They are remunerated at the
rate of $3.50 day.

And many God bless you, Doctor, is heard
from the lips of those who leave his rooms
freed from pain and suffering which they had
been lead to believe by their physicians years
ago was incurable. 1t is certainly a bleF sing to
the. afflicted of this community to have a ply
sician in their midst who can give the long
sought for relief, and it is doubly gratifying to
know that when they are cured by him they
are not temporarily but permanently cured In
all cases where the patient receives the neces-
sary number of treatments. Dr.. Evans was
compelled by the demand upon his time at the
hotel to discontinue his daily free treatments
OF the poor at Masonic Hall, 89% South Spring

every Monday morning hereafter during his
stay in the city, at 10 o'clock, and will devote
from one to two hours to the treatment of those
who are unable to pay for his services at the

A Rapid Rise.

A good instance Of the marvellous in
crease of property values in this county
has been brought to light recently. In
1882 the Palos Verdes Ranch of 5000
acres, adjoining the town of San Pedro,
was for sale at IS or $40 an acre, and a
few days ago the Southern Pacific offered
for the same property 500 an acre. This
was refused, as the owners, the sepul-
vedas, say they will not part with it for
less than $500 per acre.

THE PRECIOUS FLUID.
An Additional supply For San

Pedro.
The residents of San Pedro are de-
lighted at the prospects of obtaining a
better water service. At the present time
their supply is piped down from Whining
ton and is controlled by the Bannings,
who charge cent gallon delivered at
the docks. Even at this rate the town
cannot get either the quantity or quail
ity desired, and several attempts have
been made to obtain an additional SER
vice. Men are now working on the Gabe
Allen Spring, about two miles away
in the mountains on the Palos Verdes
Ranch and have tunneled in 80 feet with
the pleasant result of obtaining flow OF
about inches. There is every indica-
ton that this will be largely increased as
the work continues and the water, which
is Of the purest quality, will then be piped

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: | take the
liberty of suggesting that before another
edition of q. w. Williamss Negro Troops in
the Rebellion be published some one look up
for him the record Of the Maryland regiments
organized at Baltimore during the months Of
February and March, 1854 by Col. s. NJ Bow
man viz the 19th Both and Both U. S. G. 7.
The name or work of this very efficient organ
izer is not mentioned, neither is the name Of
a single officer connected with either reg-
ment, nor the name of a Brigade commander
under whom either regiment served. The Col
onels of the 18th and 10th u. s. c. r. were
made gadier-Generals by brevet, each for
gallantry on the battlefield one severely
wounded at the head of his regiment, and the
other brayelg leading his brigade in desper-
ate charge
Some OF the ablest negroes in Baltimore were
SeTgeants in their regiments, and one of the
principal employees of the Barnum Hotel was
a Sergeant Major, Col. Bowman was very
proud OF them, and they were not surpassed for
efficiency by any colored troops in the field
He certainly, in their organization, did enough
to give his name place in the history of the
colored troops, as also did those Colonels who
won star at the head of their commands on
the field of battle.-D. BATES, Aurora Neb.

Hopeless But Not Lost.

1t is folly for any physician to declare that
he covets hopeless cases, or patients who have
been given up" by other practitioners SEN
sible men, with pride in their art and reputa-
tions that they prize do not seek to imperil
their noble profession or their own fame. In
surance companies avoid taking risks on threat
ened lives. OF course every practitioner whose
heart is not stone does take cases that imperil
his success. He does so because he loves his
fellow At the same time disease is most
effectively grappled with in its earlier stages
Neglect of apparently trifing disorders leads to
the many complicated cases which battle the
highest skill, when any one of the maladies ex-
isting alone could be handled by the physician
with certainty. When the system has become
the slave of some over-mastering physical com
plicatiOns, a complete regeneration alone snffices
to restore health. The blood, the nerves. and
the digestive and urinary machinery must be
thoroughly Oyerhauled. For this nothing has
ever been found that equals the Compound
Oxygen Treatment. The New York Tribune
recently declared that the successful application
of Oxygen gas to medicine has stimulated the
most urgent search for new methods of making
ii unattended with the long and expensive proc
ess that has 50 long been used. DTs. Starkey
& Palen, No. 1929 Arch street, Philadelphia Pa,
have met with unprecedented success in appar-
emily hopeless cases Of lung and heart diseases
in the administration of their Compound Oxy-
gen. anu thlS ehCourdgeS lnem 10 urge Its mer-
its. They have many imitators, some of whom.
even with imperfect appliances effect a few
cures. But the best is not only the cheapest
but the safest. Drs. Starkey & Palen have a
large Office practice that employs themselves
and several assistants during the day. They
have introduced system of Home Treatment,
by which they send the Compound Oxygen to
all parts of the country for very low price.
1t should not be understood that they prefer to
treat patients at long range. On the contrary
their large and magnifcently appointed offices,
1929 Arch street, are crowded daily. One visit,
at least, is always desirable, but where that can
not be had the next best thing must be done.
The sufferer should write full description OF
his or her condition to Drs. Starkey & Palen.
They will give an honest opinion of the case,
and their advice viii cost nothing.

q. C. Starbuck, of the 5th I'll. Cav, and Com
rade Billiard, Co. G, 10th No. Cav, in regard To

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In your issue
of Feb. 9 Col. Thomas Rafferty,, in his Third
Corps at Gettysburg has, l think, done great
injustice to Battery K, 4th U. S. Art. (then
Seeley's). After quoting Swinton in his Cam
paigns Of the Army of the Potomac" viz,
Three guns of one of its batteries had been
left on the field owing to its heavy losses in
horses and men," Col. Rafferty, says, This was
Seeley's." Allow me to say that these guns did
not belong to Battery K, and that this battery
never lost or ever left a gun on any field during
the late war. At Gettysburg this battery was
first stationed in the Peach Orchard, and when
the line Of the Third Corps was driven in the
battery did not leave its position until Berdan's
ShaTpshooters were on line with the guns, at
which time canister was fired at the approach
ing rebels until it had to fall back TO save their
guns. At this time Lieut.. Seeley was twice
severely wounded, and although the battery
had suffered great losses in men and HORSES it
fell back to its new position at Cemetery Ridge
with all its guns If any guns had been left
would have been about the first TO have known
it, for on the I'd and Sd of July / carried the
battery colors and when the battery formed at
its new position at the Ridge it formed as il
did in the Peach Orchard, on the colors," as
usual. The guns referred to by Swinton and
stated by Col. Rafferty, as Seeleys were not the
same ones Some battery may have left their
guns and afteTward recovered them, but it was
not Battery K, and / think that it is due the
battery that Col. Rafferty, should correct this
error. In this connection / will state that at
the Gettysburg fight Battery K went into the
fghtwith six guns and at its close came out with
il, having brought off the field four iron or
steel and three brass guns belonging to bate
ries that had left them, no doubt for the want
of horses or men to bring them away. The
undersigned acting under the orders of Lieut.
Robert James, found the battery claiming the
brass guns and turned them over 10 its com
manding officer. The other guns were after
ward turned over to the battery that had left
them on the field. The old Regulars received
but very little credit for what they did during
the war, without casting on them any reflections
even at this late day.. j. DAVIS, 4th U. S
