Starlings Eaten by Rocks.

A singular instance of starlings being
eaten by rocks is reported from Dorset
shire. During the recent severe weather
a flock of starlings was observed on a
farm at West Stafford, near Dorchester,
being hotly pursued by a number OF
rocks. The larger birds quickly over
took their prey and quickly dispatched
them, and, stripping them of their
feathers, greedily devoured them on
the spot, having presumably been
driven to this from their starving con.
dition. On an inspection of the place
just after. not vestige of the starlings
could be found beyond the feathers with
which the ground was strewed. Similar
occurrences are reported from several
other places. Graphic.

A Curious Old Pump.

Those who have visited the fine old
ruin of Carlsbrooke Castle, in the Isle of
Wight, will remember that there is a
well there which still yields good sup
ply of fresh water. which is drawn up
from depth of 800 feet by a very curl
Gus method. The cord from the bucket
passes over barrel like that of an ordin-
ary windlass, but this barrel ends in an
enormous hollow wooden wheel, in which
an obedient donkey is led when water is
required. The animal steps alongside
the wheel, like squirrel in its circular
cage, and the bucket quickly rises to the
surface. e.--Nec York Nelos.

Man of War BOOmerangs.

.'Few people," says naval officer,
sappreciate the tremendous nature of
the blast caused by firing big gun on
board OF ship. An example of its ef-
feet was seen in some recent trials in fir
ing the sixtyseven ton gun of tie battle
ship Trafalgar, considered one OF the
three or four finest vessels in the British
navy. The gun was pointed directly
ahead, and fired with charge of 63O
pounds of burning powder and a
1250-pound projectile. The blast pro-
duced by the rush of the powder-gas and
the shot was so tremendous that the
plates of the forecastle were forced in and
the deck beams bent out of shape, while
almost every round carried away some
fragment of the projecting portions OF
the ship, even when the training was to
the right or the left. 1t is estimated
that the vessel would be reduced to
something very like wreck were twenty
five rounds to be fired, either directly
ahead or directly astern. This interferes
with, or renders impossible, firing when
either in flight or chase, and has caused
our naval constructors to modify the
plans for the projected battleship, as il
is not deemed desirable to have then
sink from the discharge OF their owl
guns. "--Neso York Continent.

THE TRAIN-WRECKERS.

The Roberts Brothers Apparently
Realize Their Situation.
Yesterday the Roberts brothers. who
were arrested on suspicion of being the
wreckers of the train at Colfax, were re-
moved from the Jail here to Auburn.
It is stated that one Of the brothers had
written letter in which he admitted that
he had lied to the officers in denying that
he participated in the crime. and that the
letter is now in the hands of the officers.
The latter are confident that the Rob-
erts brothers did the work, and that il
can be fully proven.
a dispatch from Colfax last night states
that JEFF and Al Roberts were brought
up there from Sacramento by Constable
Dyer. They appeared pale and detected
on reaching the depot and seeing their
acquaintanceS. They will be closely con
fined in jail until the time for their pre-
Hminary examination, which win take
place before Judge Stevens at Auburn on
Saturday morning at 10 o'clock.
The brothers were handcuffed together
and closely guarded. 1t is said that the
boys are angry at each other, and that if
left alone in the same cell would fight.
Al does not seem to mind his confine-
ment much, but JEFF appears very de-
jected.
The jail is closely guarded, in order
that no one will attempt to release them.

WATER AND PUMPS.
The Holly Company Makes a PROPOSE
ton to the City.
The Terms are Fair Enough, but the
Goods Not Equal to the Demand
Time Enough to Act.

The Holly Manufacturing Company,
through its San Francisco agent, has
made proposition to the city to furnish
new pump for the Water Works. The
proposition is to erect one of its ''hori-
zontal compound conGensing crank and
fiywheel pumps" with a capacity of six
million gallons daily, for the sum of S37,-
600. The agent calls attention to the fact
that it now costs the city $4,000 year
for fuel with which to run the two pumps
now in use, and he guarantees that the
new pump shall furnish five million
gallons daily with one-half the fuel that
will be required for the two old pumps
to yield the same number of gallons.
If the new pump does this, then the
company will ask the city to pay only
$1,000 a year on the purchase price, until
the full amount (S37, ,000) shall be paid.
Thus the city would according to the
company'S plan, pay for the new pump
IN less than six years from its saving on
fuel
1t is clear that the city cannot make a
trade on the basis proposed, because a
pump with only a five-million-gallon
capacity daily would not begin to answer
the requirements. The present consump-
forty million gallons week, and the de-
mand is steadily increasing. 1t would,
therefore, be folly to try to get along with
pump OF too limited capacity for present
uses.
The terms proposed are apparently fair
enough SO far as the payments on q
pump are concerned, but-laying aside
all question as to the present necessity of
new pump-they are of no moment to
the city under the circumstances.
1t was only a week ago that the
Trustees concluded that the expenditure
Of some $500 would place the present
pumps in good condition, and if so,
where can be the necessity for the city
going to the expense of new one at this
time?
Work has been commenced on an ex-
perimental well at Oak Park, the result
OF which viii determine the question of
water supply for the future. The point
at which this well is being bored is the
highest within a radius Of two miles, and
will give such an impetus to the flow Of
water toward the city as to wonderfully
1seilitete the work of a pump or pumps
located at the wells, should the city con-
clude to draw her supply from that
source.
Until the question of an improved sup
ply be determined-which will be but
few months-it would be well to let the
pump question alone Perhaps then it
may be demonstrated, when pumping
water down instead of uphill, as is now
the case, that the pumps already owned
by the city will be able to give an in
creased supply, and with as light con-
sumption of fuel as any other pump of
sufficient capacity that can be pur-
chased.
At all events, whatever the future de-
mand may require in the way of pump
ing machinery can be better determined
shall be reached as now, and Holly
pumps, or any other kind. can then be
obtained on just as good terms as at
present
The season for irrigating is now passed.
and from this date until next June the
demand upon the Water Works viii not
