Viewers Quiet and Orderly-State Arbi-
 trators Endeavoring to Compromise.
 FALL RIVER, Mass, March 14-Less than 500 looms are running at eleven mills. Twenty-three weave rooms are entirely closed. Of the 500 looms, few are run by weavers. Loom f1ers continue to be dis charged for refusing to run looms. The ranks of the strikers grow larger. The King Philip, Granite and American linen mills have shut down. Others are expected to close. The shut down is practically com plete. The board of arbitration can do nothing unless solicited by both sides to act. They have advised a return to work pending settlement but the weavers decline this pro posal unless some corresponding concession is made by the mills. They are, however, will ing to appoint a committee to meet manu- lecturers committee in presence of the arbi- trators, with view to settlement. The arbiuators will try to have this plan acted on. If the manufacturers consent to a meet ing it will in itself be victory fc .s weavers, who for a year past have sought such a conference only to meet with flat re- fusal from the manufacturers. If the latter yield to the request now it will probably be owing to the unexpected strength of the strikers. The weavers themselves, as well as the manufacturers, are surprised at the com plete success of the movement All is quiet and orderly. The print cloth market is Stagnant.
 The Spinners' union, at their meeting last night, took no action regarding the weavers' strike. There is good deal of dissatisfac- tion among the spinners over this failure to act It is argued by many that the spinnerz ought to strike, so long as the mills con- tinue to produce yarn they can pay expenses and are not much injured by the weavers strike.

A Car with n History.

The railway car in which Abraham
Lincoln rode in from his home to
Washington to take his first oath as
president of the United States is going
TO decay.
The car is No. $40 and is the prop
erty of the New York Central and
Hudson River Railroad company. 1t
is now run on the Fall Brook road
daily between Wellsboro and Antrim,
and used as a common smoking car.
The car may be seen any day in the
week between trips on side track ct
the Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern passenger station in Elmira.
1t is worn and weather beaten ex-
ternally, and has the appearance of be-
ing an emigrant passenger coach.
1t was built at the West Albany
shops thirty years ago, and at that time
was considered the acme of railway
coach architecture. The seats are stiff
and uncomfortable, with iron arms.
The arrangements for ventilation and
heating were very crude, but this
lack of comfort was made up in the
gaudy decorations that adorn the pam
neling overhead. Landscapes and
railway views are depicted in high
colors, with more or less accuracy,
while really good oil portraits of Wash
ington and Lincoln are painted on the
end panels of the car.-New York Tele-
gram.

Pure Water.

The inestimable value of pure water has
always been recognized by mankind, and
the necessity of sinking wells has so oc-
cupied the attention of all nations and
countries since the world began. 1t is,
however, only within few years that the
pick and shovel method of the past, which
was only possible where the conditions
were favorable, gave way to the enlighten-
ed process of the present which defies alike
the hardest rock and the most treacherous

There is light in my eyes of dawning of a fair

Away to the ancient forest and the wilds that are

Where the envious growth of creepers goes rival

Where the streams of the orient land roll out
through their gates of gold,
When the dizziest mountain submits were shrines
Of the faiths of old,
Where the well Of the desert waters gives life to
the lonely tree,
Where the tent of the turbaned nomad Is set by

ming was moderate and the business has
grown from a jobbing firm occupying a
store 150x50 to manufacturing establish
ment second to none in its line in the
country. The Co. have followed the star
of empire on its journey westward until
their name and fame are known wherever
wells are made and pumps set. They
recognized at an early date that shallow
wells, taking surface water. must soon give
out; particularly in the west where the
surface water finds ready escape into
irrigating canals and bitches, as well as
into the natural water ways. They antici-
pated the fact that to obtain pure water the
earth must be probed, and that, with the
rapid settlement of the country, process
must be devised that would not only go
deep but also be sure.
To this end they have adopted the most
ingenious methods known to modern science
and have fully protected them by letters
patent, which they own or control. They
make no claim to the miraculous but they
guarantee their machinery to get water
wherever IL is human possibility, and the
word fail is not in the lexicon of the +. G.
