In extolling flowers. for their refining in
huenees, the boston Herald observes that
"the man with flower in his button-hole is
always a better man for it," This may be
as rule, but is not always the case. Some
OF the most designing and wicked villains on
earth are distinguished by their neatness OF
dress, enhanced by the sweet, fresh and pure
buttonhole flower. Don't judge men toe
highly by their lapel bouquets, or you VIII
often be fooled.

impossible to give an idea of the congratula-

Reed on account of his great endorsement by
his constituents. These congratulations
have taken every form, from the shake Of

man who is not in hurry that the thing
should be done right off. The pile of con-
gratulatory letters and kilograms on Mr.
Reeds table is large one. Some of the tel
egrams came to him at Portland and some
here. These kilograms are from men in all
walks of life, beginning with the President
of the United States, whose message Of con-
graduation has already been published, and
running through the scale OF political and
personal acquaintances and friends. Many
Republican clubs and committees also send
their congratulations. here are few Of
these messages:

Wessington Springs herald. (Wessington Springs, Aurora County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1891, 1890-11-14

WHAT promises to be one of the
most important features in water irri-
cation in California has been brought
forward at Riverside, in the question
as to the right to tap an underground
flow or percolating water. A company
is at work upon tunnel which will tap
the underfow that makes vast bod
of land around San Bernardino moist.
Should the land be drained to such an
extent that the moisture will be dimin-
ished near the surface, and thus COM
pei irrigation where the character Of
soil has heretofore not required it, q
great hardship will fall upon property
owners, and protracted litigation will
follow. It is wholly distinct feature
in riparian law, and may result in RI
parian legislation. 1t would seem to
be much on the same principle that one
artesian well may be sunk on lower
level than another, and demolish or
even dry up its flow, yet the owner of
the upper we'll has no recourse at law.
The question is fraught with immense
Importance to Southern California.
and the result will be watched with
great interest.

Accidental Fire..

In calling attention to fires and
pointing out some of the caases Of
these accidents, for most of thom are
accidental, one cannot help wandering
at the curelessness exhibited lin the
every day life of large portion Iof our
population. In former days our worthy
and useful friend. the chimney sweep,
made his regular rounds, and little was
head Of defective tiues and chimneys,
as is SO often the case ut present. Ii
householders would have theiri chin.
neys seen to as promptly and csfefully
as their ancestors had theirs, vast bene.
fits would ensue. This is of gr{at im.
portance. Equally 80 is the proaer at.
tention to bniiding fires in open &rates.
AN anch tircplaces. or rather the floor.
ing around aud in front OF same, ahoultl
be protected by iron or other metal
covering. The danger of livd Goals
falling from a CRATE fire is on3 that
should be recognized and understood.
! need not refer to the use of kero.
sene in kindling fires, as the papers
teen with accidents from that Purce.
Another fruitful origin is the habit of
having matches lying around loose
where children can get at and play with
them, and allowing loose pap4s or
near open fires.
Leaving your children alone j the
house during tho day is also productive
