A brilliant meteor was seen by
Pittsburgers about 1920 O'Clock
the other night. 1t started near
the zenith, and shot down the sky
toward the northwest, bursting in
to shower of brilliant sparks
about half way to the horizon.
1t cleaned like great electric
lamp, and in the shadows on the
streets and in the parks created a
light equal to that of an arc lamp.

THE RHONE Ar work

The idea that the water power of rivers
should be utilized has rapidly grown in
favor during the last ten years, and some
thing towards carrying out this idea has
been accomplished. Probably the most
notable instance is the utilizing of the
Rhone by the Germans. Arrangements
have been made by which the water of the
Rhone is conducted to twenty. turbines of
8, 400 net horse power. The practical re-
suit of the works has gone far beyond
what the promoters anticipated, for at
the and of last year there were 216 IN
dustrial motors with force of ,565 horse
power. ALI kinds of trade and industry
make use of the water power, while the
amount of force varies very much, the
minimum being third of horse for sew
present 625 horses for an electric light
company, the great advantage of
the system of transmission adopted
being that the force can be trans
ported to whatever point required.
The total cost of the work has been

been for the account of the municipality,
while theg gross return upon the sale of water
in 1887 reached 923, 900, or 15O per cent.
more than it was nine years before, while,
after deducting all the cost of mainten-
ance, staff, interest, and paying off of
the capital invested, this leaves a clear
profit of e5, 500. The demands for more
motive power are steadily increasing, and
it is anticipated that in few years time
| all the turbines will be in use and that the
municipality will have to fall back upon
the reserves, which consist of an island
way down the Rhone, where fresh motive
force of 1000 horsepower could easily be
obtained and transmitted to Geneva by
| electricity, the loss by waste en- route be-
| ing calculated at about 1000 horsepower.
But this would leave a margin of 5000 for
actual use, so that there is no fear of the
supply running short, while the return
upon the capital invested makes the snter-
prise very profitable one for the munic-
ipality.
Thus do the philosophers of to-day deal
with nature. There is power enough go

Rum drinking is held in holy horror, and
it requires round sum to buy an ''indul-
gence" to traffic in the article. We must
all drink something, especially after filling
our throats with dust riding or walking
out to and then crawling upon East Rock.
But we can neither get rum up there nor
water either to quench our thirst or that of
our little children.
For one 1 do not wish to temper with
the delicate stomachs of my children by
pouring down into them swash, called by
beautiful names, because it foams, and
then pay five cents glass for it. want
water, pure water to drink, from foun-
tain supplied with something to drink out
of, SO that everybody can help themselves
in this way, or out of glasses they bring
themselves.
Why do not the men who inaugurate
penalties for picking flower inaugurate a
place to get drink of "Adam's ale" or
East Rocks Somebody supplies this pub
lie accommodation to horses in the city.
We think that men, women and children
are entitled to be treated with the same
humanity as horses, and so think very
quiet gentleman at the Tontine, who was
surprised that such aplace of resort existed
in New Haven as East rock without a
fountain for such to drink from, as he did
not wish to buy any spirituous or manu-
factured drinks. Indeed, he thought it
would have been better to spend one hum
dred and ninety nine thousand dollars in
building poorhouse with an elevator, and
have used the one thousand saved in crea-
ating neat little fountain for the people

who are absolutely in need of exercise and
diversion. The amount of good that might
be done by home missionary work on this
line is incalculable, and it is certainly sur
prising that so few people avail themselves
of this simple manner of giving and re-
ceiving pleasure. How delightful a treat
a short drive might be to the invalid,
weary of looking out day after day upon
the same limited view and seeing the same
people pass at stated hours A

novelty, or the tired eyes be gladdened

should ask them, but can't make up my
mind to that" and she sighed as if the
thought of summer days to come which
she must spend within doors, a prisoner,
was most oppressive and disheartening
one.
Then there are the poor and over-worked
whose lives are so BARREN of recreation,
the old people, too infirm to enjoy walk,
and the people who have seen better days
and miss so sorely the old time luxuries-
what might not such a little outing bring

ty by actual subscription and a common
heritage of all nationalities and men, to
lapse into a mercenary show-place, in the
clutch of two beggarly brutes lacking the
common placid and kindly nature and in
telligence of ordinary animals. These
two creatures, man and wife, stand guard
