THE WATER EXPERIMENT.

1t begins to look from the experiment
in sinking artesian wells that Sacramento
can in all probability secure an ample
supply of pure water, clear and soft,
without piping from the mountains or
filtering the river water. 1t would also
seem, so far as experimenting has gone,
that we will not need, if the supply
proves sufficient and the quality stands
the test of chemical analysis, to expend
an extraordinarily large sum for new
pumps. Finely finished and expensive
pumps, with power sufficient to push the
water through the mains, will not be
necessary, but machines of ample capac-
ity to give US all needed pressure can be
erected at greatly less cost than those we
now have visited upon the city.
Instead of the dead push of delivery,
which fuctuates and varies, and often
fails to give any pressure in upper
stories, we can have strong, powerful
pumps operating against air cushions, so
as to not only put good force into every
house hydrant in the loftiest buildings,
but be of sufficient pressure to enable
small water motors to be used, thing
not now possible because of the irregu-
larity, insufficiency and unsteadiness of
the present machine pressure.
If it is found possible for Sacramento to
secure at her very doors good water that
can be lifted at no greater cost than is
now necessary in drafting water from
the river, and have it come to US at a
pressure equal to a lofty head and with
steadiness, we will have taken an i'm
mense stride forward, and have given the
city and every interest in it a splendid
push to the front.
We entertain the belief, and think the
reasons fortifying it are sufficient, that,
assuming the subterranean supply to be
all that is or ought to be demanded, it
can be lifted and sent through the mains
and service pipes at greatly reduced cost,
comparable with what the present suction
and direct pressure system we now have
entails upon the city. Certainly no such
expensive and complicated machinery as
we now employ will be necessary;
equally as certain is it that the new ma
chinery win not be nearly so liable to dis
arrangement, and that in handling clear
water the life of the machinery will be
greatly prolonged over that of pumps
handling gritty water that cuts the ma
chinery and makes its repair cost heavily
and its life comparatively short.

new dry docks, the stimulation of gum
making, the selection of sites for new navy
yards, and the like.
There are reasons why, having pro-
ceeded thus far, we should not be in ex-
traordinary haste. Some of these reasons
are that every month develops new facts
and discoveries regarding naval archi-
lecture and armament; the power of guns
and the effectiveness of ammunition and
of proiectiles; the composition and plac-
ing of armor, etc. 1t is also of high inn
portance that the armor and the batteries
should be of domestic manufacture, and
at present our ship-building has run
ahead of our capacity in those directions.
In the matter of propulsion, also, every
month brings in new and valuable
knowledge, as also in the construction,
performance and management of differ
ent types CT boilers. We are to-day far
better informed as to the machinery that
is most economic and effective for pro-
pulsion Of our naval ships than we were
even so late as two years ago. In secur-
ing compactness, lightness and accessi-
bility Of parts, with gain of power and
lessening of weight, we have made great
advances in very recent months. Five
years ago we could have equipped no
naval vessel with either pneumatic or
dynamite guns, and in the light of what
has since developed concerning these
weapons, it is safe to say that the next
five years will reveal to us truths of as
high service in an efficient navy in the
use of these means as has the last hall
decade. We are doing well enough now
in naval advancement, and if we keep up
the pace already set we will conserve ex-
cellence and economy; while haste may
sacrifice both

NAVAL CONSTRUCTION
The Portland oregonian says:


The experience of the last year ought to
Illuminate the course of the next Congress in
providing for increase Of the navy. Ii de-
monstrates with painful clearness that We
need great many more ships, and that we
need them at once; that number and prompt
ness of supply are of more Importance than
strength or size or even excessive speed and
endurance.
None have been more solicitous than
the RECoRD-UNIoN for the building up
Of navy commensurate with the needs
and importance of the nation. But if the
schedule Of ships built and equipped and
those in process of building and equip
ment, is considered, we think it will be
found that the United States has done
remarkably well in the last five years.
She has built ships in advance of the ca
Pacity to arm them, and it is not desirable
that we should order our great guns or
batteries from abroad. The navy of the
present is by no means a weak one, nor
is there lack of speed in plenty. OF course
the present number of effective vessels
must be doubled. but we have not seen
the need, nor are we likely to, for extra
ordinary haste, which means extraordi-
nary expense and perhaps more Five
years ago there was need for rapid nayal
building, but after what has been done
we can afford to go more slowly.
In 1889 the Government launched the
Philadelphia, San Francisco, Cushing,
Newark and Concord, and commissioned
the Charleston, Yorktown, Petrol and
Baltimore. We now have of armored
vessels, either ready or awaiting armor,

OPINION OF SELF.

The Epoch commends Sir Edwin Ar
mold for saying in his address before the
Lotus Club, 81 have no high opinion of
myself" We doubt the wisdom of sug-
gesting this sentence to young men as a
text for repetition, as means to humil-
ity and modesty.
Aside from mere vanity, and from in
1ation and self-conceit, man ought to
have good opinion, high opinion, of
himself He ought to so live that when
he takes account of himself, ''sizes him
self as clergyman of this city the
other night put it, he will be proud
of himself, respect himself and liable to
pronounce favorable judgment upon
himself If he attains in his life and
thought and aspiration this level, why
should he not have a high opinion of
himself.
We believe that young men, all men
indeed, should entertain so high an opin-
ion of themselves that they will despise
to do a mean, ignoble or dishonorable
thing; abhor uncleanliness and vileness,
and deem themselves too manly to be
other than cleanly, upright, generous,
faithful and loving.
The man who has no high opinion of
himself has no right to expect others to
entertain it. Herein, of course, we ex-
plicitly except vain-glorious estimation
Of ones self, and that self-importance
which is born of vulgar pride.
We do not think Sir Edwin Arnold's
remark to be, as the Epoch characterizes
it, modest" He is perfectly aware of
his own ability; he cannot be uncon-
scious of the estimate at which the world
of letters values his literary work; he
knows that he has made his name fore
most one in authorship and poetry. 1t
is, therefore, to his discredit, and is an
evidence of weakness akin to vanity
when he declares that he has no high
opinion of himself, unless he means
thereby to say that he is not pulled up, is
not to ploftical in his self-estimate and
will not indulge in the vulgarity of
boasting,

WE cannot believe that it will be the
destiny of Brazil to be dismembered and
to resolve in several minor republics.
The worst news concerning the disturb
ances there agree that all the discontented
look to the preservation of the federal
condition, and that, ouside of the machi-
nations of few old-time royalists, the
movers in the current troubles are striv-
ing for ends within republican system.
This is evidence Of an appreciation of free
government and federation of States
that we had begun to fear did not exist.
The resignation of Fonseca testifies to a
patriotic desire to prevent unnecessary
bloodshed. The revolutionists, now re-
ported triumphant, have practically won
without the horrors of war, and they ap-
pear to be as devoted to the republic as
was the deposed Government.

DALTON'O WILD LEAP.
A Convict Makes a Bold Dash for
Liberty.
He Leaps From Speeding Train, Fol-
lowed by the Officer, and Es-
capes Recapture.

On Sunday night Deputy Sheriff Cos
tello of San Francisco, who generally
conducts convicts from that city to the
penitentiaries, brought up a burglar
named Anthony Dalton, en- route to Fol-
som.
He left the city with his prisoner on
yesterday mornings train for the State
Prison. Dalton had behaved very we'll
up to that time. and the officer favored
him by allowing him to travel without
being hand-cuffed. Several times Dalton
went to the stove in the front end of the
car to warm himself.
Shortly after the train had passed Alder
Creek he visited the stove again, and
watching his opportunity made dash
through the door to the platform. AL
though the train was going at the rate of
about thirty miles an hour, ne leaped to
the ground and disappeared in the brush.
Somebody pulled the signal-cord and
Engineer Hanford put on the air brakes,
but before the speed of the train had per-
ceptibly slackened Costello sprang
through the door and leaped to the ground
after his whilom prisoner, but was seen
to fall heavily. The train was stopped
within seventy-five yards, and several of
the passengers and trainmen FASTENED
back and found Costello lying on the
ground near the track, apparently uncon-
scious, while blood flowed freely from
wounds about his face and head.
He was carried aboard the train and
taken to Folsom, where he soon recov-
cred sufficiently to telephone to the prison
for men 10 assist him in searching for
Dalton.
The posse hastened to the place where
Dalton leaped from the train, where they
found tracks leading toward the river.
Several hours were spent in vainly
searching for the escape, and when the
! train returned from Placerville Costello
was taken aboard and brought to this city.
| The prison officers continued the search
until dark in the brush along the river,
| but did not succeed in capturing the
escaped burglar.
