WASTE OF WATER.
Petersburg in the Same Condition as Rich

tIndex-Appesl, 5th.1
Mayor Fllyson, of Richmond, in his last
o,,,,,,oI message. (which, by the way, is a
pnrv able and interesting document calls
attention to the increased consumption,
or rather waste per capita OF city wafer:
THE increase in that city Tor the Iasb
twenty wears has reached nearly 4OO per
cent. and il is estimated that uhiess SOME
vvaete the water supply of Richmond must
s"on fail short OF the demand. The Su-
ner,ntendent thinks that the application
pf meters to the old-fashion compression
closets will prove effective in preventing
,yoete and wisely urges the general intro
drction of water meters for every class OF
water consumption. There are now one
hundred and forty-three meters In use IN
Richmond. and the Mayor says they nave
given general satisfaction;
The suggestion IS as applicaDle 10 refers
b,,ra as 10 Richmond. We venture the
assertion that at least one half the city
water in Petersburg is wasted. The INTRO
Jnction of meters would greatly reduce
the expenses of the water-works depart
ment. and at the same time reduce the
cost of water 10 the consumers. what Is
also of eoual importance, the use of meters
woulj distribute the burden OF the water
tax equally and Justly on all consumers.
No man would pay for more water than he
used, and If he wasted the water IL Would
be at his own expense.
There is in the minds OF some an appre-
hension that under the meter system con
snmers would restrict themselves. IN the
use of water to the detriment OF health
and comfort. There is no ground whatever
for this fear. A fair trial of the meter sys-
tenn would conclusively prove that con
sumers can get all the water they REQUIRE
at very much less than the present rates.
There will, of course. be no waste of water
care and economy thus practiced by users
of water would result, as we have said, in
a reduction of expenses of the water
works department, and consequently in
corresponding reduction of the rate OF
consumers. ,-.,
Let us hope that the Common Council
Will give this important matter the atten-
ton il deserves.

and hip winch struck against the seat
were somewhat bruised. Culby suffered
greatly while the doctor was pulling the
bone into place, but seemed almost imme-
diately relieved
There was no net under the trapeze at
the time, and that person should fall

TUMeLEp FROM A TRAPEZE.
A Performer Falls Twenty Feet and is
Only Slightly Injured.

About half-past o'clock last night
Edward Culby fell from the trapeze while
performing at the Broad-Street Opera
House to the floor below, a distance of
about twenty feet.
At the time of the accident the gym
mast was standing up and in dropping down
he did not catch the bar as he expected.
Luckily he fell Immediately in the aisle,
striking one shoulder and a hip against a
chair. The audience thought sure the
man was dead and were nearly afraid to
look. Several of his brother actors picked
him up and carried him into his dressing
room, where he was laid on an improvised
pallet.
The ambulance was telephoned and upon
its arrival the doctor in charge made an
examination OF the injured man and to the
that no bones were broken, though the
hone of one FINGER waQ dislocated

Women who XIV. by Typewri,inc.

manufacturer of one of the standard
cypewriters on the market says that there
are 1900 women who make a living in
this country by drumming the KEYS Of
writing machines. I'VE are not able to
give you absolutely accurate information, -
he said, ''as TO the number of women who
make a living by the typewriter, but we
are probably in n better position to esti-
mate the approximate number, Is we
know more nearly than any one else how
many machines of all makes are in use,
and the proportion Of male and female
operators. We think il not far out &C the
way to say that there are about 1890
women whose support i derived from the
use of writing machines, and $500 men
OF whom the same may be said. These fig
ures DO not include the men who us the
typewriter themselves in their own bust
ness or profession, but merely those who
use the machine as employees of other poo
pie" Another manufacturer says that
from 10000 to 5000 women are using the
machines which lac Is making York
