The practice Of American oil well
sinkers of firing the torpedo to start a
dry or increase the flow Of sluggish
well has been taken advantage Of in Eng
land successfully in the case Of water.
At the Hsrne Bay Water works a well
bored into the chalk 578 feet deep from
the surface yielded little or no water,
and upon the advice Of Messrs. John
Taylor & Sons two charges Of roburite
were fired-the first consisting Of TWEEN
ty-seven pounds Of the explosive placed
az the bottom Of the bore hole. and the
second Of twenty-five pounds At fifty feet
above the former. The second shot had
the desired result. and produced a vol
ume of water estimated az sc, 900 gallons
a day, which rose 70 the top of the well.

OUT FOR ECONOMY.
Mayor COmstock's Proposed Plans for
Cutting Down Expenses.

Mayor COmstOck's Proposed Plans for
Cutting Down Expenses.
After the routine of business had been
finished at the morning session of the
Board of Trustees yesterday. Mayor Com
stock drew from his pocket a number of
election ballots and read from the back
thereof an address. which he proceeded to
deliver to the Board, on the subject of
economy in the municipal departments.
He said he had been trained as an econo-
mist from boyhood; that the city was finan-
cially distressed; that the prospect for low
taxes in the near future was not bright,
and he thought that rigid economy should
be practiced
would cut down expenses. The two fire.
men in the water works, he said, ought to
be able to wheel in their own coal, and
there should be less money expended for
clerical labor in the Water Collectors Of
fee. The duties of Water Inspector, Sani-
tary Plumber and Building Inspector
could, he thought, be performed by one
person, saving $3.50 a month. In all, he
believed about Sc, 900 year could be cut
OF without injury to the city's interests.
After the Mayor had concluded his read
ing he looked inquiringly at the other
Trustees, as If to see how they took the
matter. He then said he meant every
word he said. He repeated that the fire.
men in the water works had plenty OF time
to wheel in their coal, and that the services
of two extra men could be dispensed with.
Trustee Wolf retorted that they could
not do without them. Continuing he said:
There have been times to my knowledge
when the three firemen were even unable
to attend to the boilers, and it is an abso-
lutte necessity to have man wheel coal"
We'll" said the Mayor" Il think they
could be done away with, and also believe
the engineers are having an easy time on
eight-hour shifts"
You don't want men to work twelve
hours, do your" queried the Street COM
missioner. II don't believe in crippling
any department for the sake of few dol.
lars"
The Mayor. continuing, said he had every
reason to believe that the work in the
office of the Clerk of the Water Works
could be done By one clerk, land here
after" said he, II will refuse to sign their
warrants, as | consider it part of my duty
not to do SOL
Well, l guess we will have tackle at
that ourselves" retorted Trustee Nc
Laughlin, land we'll keep two clerks there,
100, if my vote counts for anything"
Il We got little say in that matter N.Y.
self said the Third Trustee
Il know I'm in the minority" said the
Mayor, and
Yes, and that's why you kick" said
Wolf
.Tll kick" rejoined the Mayor, when 1
think IN right and you'll hear from me
again, Mr.. Wolf, before the year is out"
The wrangle was then brought to an
end

BUcK1NG AGAINST FARO.
The Law and Order League to Offer 1t,
Services to the Police.

The Law and Order League to Offer Its
Services to the Police.
At yesterday afternoons session of the
City Trustees E. NJ. Leitch, a prominent
member of the Law and Order League, ap-
peared during brief lull in the proceed
ings and informed Mayor Comstock that
there would be meeting of the Police
Commissioners at 8 O'Clock this morning,
when proposition would be made by the
league to put a quietus on gambling in
this city. He handed the Mayor a paper
which the latter read. stating that it was
proposed anti-gaming ordinance 1t was
as follows:
Ordinance No. -. The Board of Trustees of
the City of Sacramento do ordain as follows:
SECTION !. No person shall have in his pos
session, unless 1t IS shown that such possession
is innocent, or for lawful purpose, any faro
box, taro-table. faro layout, faro cases, faro
checks or other implements for playing any
banking game.
Every person found in any room or apartment
where such gambling implements are discov-
cred shall. unless the contrary appears, be
deemed to have possession of the same; pro-
vided that the possession of any of the forege-
ing implements by manufacturer of the same
shall be deemed innocent and for lawful pur-
pose.
Every person. violating any OF the PROVISIONS
of this ordinance shall be deemed guilty of e
misdemeanor and be punished by fine of not
less than $500, or by imprisonment for not less
than 100 days, or both such fine and imprison-
ment.
Mayor Comstock wanted to know if thew
could not take action on the ordinance
then and there.
Whats the matter with the State law
against gaming?" asked Trustee Wolf.
AT any rate, he remarked, this proposed
ordinance will have to go over one week,
under the rule"
We'll, then, move,n said the Mayor,
that 1t lay over one week"
Il move to amend" said Trustee Nc.
Laughlin, "by making it six weeks, and
want the roll called on the proposition"
The roll was called, and Mr.. Mclaughlin
votei aye, and Mayor Comstock and Wolf
no.
The Mayors motion was then carried.
What does the League propose to do?n
asked RECORD UNION reporter of Mr..
Leitch.
We'll, we are going to make an offer to
the Police Commissioners" he replied, ito
put stop to gambling, if they will admit
that the police can't do it. We believe we
can do it, and are willing to try it."

THE FIRST CHERRIES.
Sacramento to the Front as the First

Sacramento to the Front as the First to
Make shipment.
Sacramento is entitled to the honor OF
being the first to this year ship ripe cher
ries. Last night J. F. Farnsworth of this
city shipped to Porter Bros, Chicago, a
good sized box of large ripe cherries of the
Early Purple Guigoe variety, which he
gathered from trees growing in his yard
on Second street, between o and P, in this
city
Thus Sacramento lays in the shade all
the famed early fruit localities of the State.
d. T. Lufkin brought box of cherries
to the city yesterday from his place, a
short distance below Freeport. They are
not of the better class. but for this season
are considered very early. Mr.. Lnfkin
says the early crop will be light, but the
outlook for the later variety is good.
Early peaches. he says, will be few from
his section. Curled leaf has appeared and
the trees appear "sickly," owing to too
much water ia the soil.
