THE RAILROADS
The Chambcr of Commerce VIII Con-
slider Railroad Matters To-Day.
Another Lively Rate War Going on Between
Eastern Roads-EngIneers and Other
Railroad Employees.

The meeting OF the chamber of commerce
called for 4 clock this afternoon will be one Of
more than ordinary Importance, for at it will
lie decided whether or not steps shall be taken
to insure tine success of the Albuquerque rail-
road, or whether Fort Worth will 90 out OF the
railroad business and let this-the most import
ant Of all railroad schemes ever inaugurated in
the city drop whereit is, ana let some other city
stem forward and by building line OF railroad
capture rich territory that by rights should do
all its trading here. There are many in the city
who are fully sensible of the Importance of this
matter, and they will be on hand; there are
others who do not seem to have given
it thought enough, and they should be
specially urged to be at the meeting. The OBJ
jact Of the meeting to-day, as it is understood,
IS not to raise money then, but to devise some
means by which it can be done. A full attend
ance under the circumstances should be secured
and il there Is. there is hardly doubt that
those there will be able to work much good
This is probably the last effort that will be made
in this matter and if there is member Of the
chamber of commerce who does not wish this
enterprise to fall through he should be at the
meeting, to aid by his counsel the work in hand.

TOR PURE WATER.

Teams were engaged Yesterday distrib-
uting the pipe for water mains along the
streets where they are to BE- sunk and a
large force of men were at work eNeavat-
ing the trenches. The arrangements for
supplying Fairhavon with pure water can
hest be- explained by the following from
MIR. Frank Wilkeson's pamphlet issued
by the Chamber of Commerce:
The Fairhaveu Water company was
organized October cath. 1859, with capt.
tai stock Of Sl5O.OOO. The water is TO be
taken from Lake Padden, beautiful
sheet Of water that lies two miles from
Fairhaven. The contract to fetch the
water to Fairhaven has been let for 90. r.
COO and the water will be running through
pipes and into Fairhaven in early May
fsp0. The water will flow through steel
main Of twenty inches in diameter. ana
distributed through smaller pipes To the
residence and manufacturing sections OF
the CITY and to the steamboat landings.
There is To be- a fire hydrant ON every
block in the city. Lake Padden has an
altitude Of 30 feet above Fairhaven. Its
pure. cold water is stocked with trout, a
fact that establishes its purity.

gineers that the overflow from Lake Pad
den is ample 10 supply sufficient water FOL

5000 people. But the citizens of Fair
haven know that their city will speedily

looking into the future through clear eye
they have had survey for pipe linz
made from Fairhaven to Lake Samish
which Is eight miles from the city an'
when lies in mountain basin that Is -
feet above Fairhaven. The survey show
that the water from Lake Samish can b

THIS DOES SETTLE 1T.

From time immoral. people who know
as little about natural philosophy and the
laws Of mechanics as trout does about
trigonometry have been trying to invent
perpetual motion and 10 tell them that
the thing is "agin natur" has no effect.
Lately an eminent savan. Professor lIele
Shaw has been writing ON the subject, and
shows what would happen II perpetual
motion were possible. After exhibiting
plainly that friction precludes the possi-
billy Of perpetual motion, he proceeds to
show " hat would be- the state of affairs
II friction should cease to exist. THE
whole force Of nature" he says. would
at once be- changed. and much 4 the dry
land and most Of our buildings would dis
appear beneath the sea. Such inhabitants
as remained a short time alive would not
only be unable toprovide themselves with
fire and warmth. but would find their
very clothes falling back to the original
fiber from which they were made; and II
not destroyed In one Of the many possible
ways-no longer dlssipated by friction
through the air or by falling masses Of wat
er no longer retarded by the atmosphere
and descending as rain-wonld be unable to
obtain FOOD. from inability to move them
selves 10y any ordinary method Of locomo-
ton. or what would be- equally serious,
having once started into motion, from
being unable to stop except when they
came into collision with other unhappy
beings or moving bodies. Before long
the people. with all heavier substances.
would disappear forever beneath the
waters which would now cover the face
Of a lifeless world"
just think Of ali the people Of the
world being like a boy who was 50 lazy
that II was difficult matter TO get him

the whole thing would lie in making some
