THE outrages perpetrated on the
people of San Francisco by the
Spring Valley Water Co. are quite
a sore subject and excite much liti-
CATION and comment. The people
of that city have surrendered all
their rights of supplying themselves
to II corporation which has in twen-
ty years chaaged them SO
astonishingly that the sum is mon
strous. Many cottages whose proper
charge would be about one dollar
and II half per month each have been
forced to pay as high as twelve dol
lars. The least failure to pay results
in having the supply cut Off and in
case any neighbor allowed them to
have water, be it never so small n
quantity his supply was also shut
of. Strange indeed that any COM
munity could tolerate such tyranny.
All the facts have been brought out
time and again in trials before the
courts. There is one thing certain
if towns of twenty thousand people
can get the water Mt from one fifty
10 two dollars per month for each
plug or faucet, what ought it be in
large cities of from ten 10 twenty
times their size.

ARTIFICIAL RAINFALL.

Nearly every proposition ITO
make it rainn is based on the idea
that gunpowder explosions caused it
to rain during our war. That great
rains fell, soon after great battles,
in the vicinage where fought, was a
fact known to theancients. Among
others who mention this phenome-
non, if our memory is correct,
Plutarch, in life of Marius remarks
about it, the occasion being a series of
mighty battles fought by that great
est master of warfare against the
Cimbri in Southern Gaul and the
unparalleled noise, uproar and des-
truction of human life which was 50
great that to this day it is commem-
Grated i'm the name Of village
there. The ancients explained that
the great amount Df blood shed and
the decaying bodies oyercharged the
air with gases and hence the rain
fall which they had remarked as
almost invariably following great
battle. To-day we ascribe it to the
thunder of our guns. 1t is alleged
that extreme cold prevails some ten
miles and beyond in the upper
regions. AS cold tends downward
and heat upward any great shock
given to the upper chambers of the
air should tend to let the very cold
air plunge downward, thus produc-
ing'clouds and rainfall. 1t would be
very interesting to learn just what
effect would follow, in time of
drought, some mighty explosion ten
or fifteen miles above. Citizens of
Kansas are going TO attempt some
thing in that direction.

BOLD ROBBERIES.
Two Grocery Stores Robbed Under the
Very Eyes of the Police.

Very Eyes of the Police.
The grocery store of Ira c. Hatch,
l25 MonrOe-st., was entered night before
last or yesterday morning 10y burglars,
and robbed of nearly 50 worth of
cigars, besides dollar in pennies. The
entrance was effected through the
transom over the front door, which is
left open Intentionally for the purpose
of ventilation. The thieves had their
nerve with them, as the street at that
point is well lighted, and people are
passing at almost all the time. After
getting all they could they left by the
back door.
Only a few nights since the grocery
of George Tubergen, around the corner
on South Division street, was entered
in precisely the same way, and relieved
of all the change in the cash-drawer,
and was evidently the work of the
same gang. Both of these stores are
within a very short distance and IN full
view of patrol-box, where the police
cOngregate every few minutes 10 report
TO headquarters that they have not
been carried off by the thieves.
