ble-Ths Connection OF the Wells
with the Conduit to Start This
Week.
Savannshisns will not have the pleasure
Of using any water from tine new water
works until Nov. l at the earliest, and pos.
sibly not before Thanksgiving day. It
would be very appropriate to turn On the
water on the latter day, and people would
certainly have reason TO give thanks for de-
nverancs for having to drink a mixed
water calculated to build sand BANKS In
ones stomach.
The construction OF the new works is pro-
crossing as favorably as can be expected.
One pump is already in position but not yet
fitted, and the boilers aud other machinery
are also up. The building of the house will
be started Dot. 1. The walls will be brick
and the roof iron, and it will be made abso-
lutely hre-proof. Bids are now being ad
yertised for this part Of the plant.
THE WELLS COMPLETE.
Contractor Chaplin has completed the
weir and wet wells and all the machinery
foundations, leaving nothing to be done on
that part Of the work except the erection Of
the house. A temporary shed has been built

The Holly company will send q ma "a here
this week to put the fittings on the engine
and get it in condition for servioe. Since
the city took charge Of the conduit the work
isRoing ahead smoothly. More progress was

particular by Jan. l.
THE CONDUIT CONNECTIONS.
This week work will commence on the
connection Of the artesan wells with the
conduit. The part finished will be bulls
headed, and il expectations are realized,
five OF the wells will be flowing into the
conduit by Nov. IS. These connections are
difficult, because they have to be made be-
low mean low water, and necessarily the
WORK will have 20 be very carefully looked
after. The conduit will turn its supply Of
water into the wet we'll and the engines
will pump directly from it instead Of from
the wells
Two and half miles Of mains have been
laid in connection with the new works

driver need only have turned his
buggy a foot or two to one side
to have avoided the collision. The bicycle
rider, being on the right side Of the road,
was justified up to the last moment in be-
heving that the defendant would obey the
law and turn to the right; and at the last
moment it was not negligence on his part to
turn to the left, because the buggy driver
might at the same moment have turned to
the right and collision thus have occurred
for which the bicycle rider would have
been responsible. The rule Is thus estab-
lished that IL the bicycle rider keeps as far
as possible to the right Of the road he is not
legally required TO take other extraordi-
nary means Of escaping from collision with

Loulsiena's BE- Rice crop.

The New Orleans Delta estimates that
Louisiana will produce this year from 1.5OO,-
900 to 1,750,00O barrels Of clean rice. So
far the season has been excellent for the
staple, and now there Is nothing to fear for
IL except storms which would beat It down.
or excessive rains during the season for har-
vesting the crop, and these are not antici-
pated. The Delta says tue large quantity
OF rice planted this year is in a large part
due TO the determination of the Louisiana
farmer not to ''put all Of his eggs in one
basket" or, in other words. not to plant ex~
clusively cotton or cane or any other one
product

The united action of the labor organiza-
tions in celebrating Labor day here with a
parade is likely to result In the formation
of federation of labor, on plan similar to
the central labor unions Of abe larger cities.
Every organized trade in the city will be
invited to join, aud the organized me
chanics and laborers will be asked to come
into the fold.
If the movement is successful, and there
Is no Indications that it will not be. Savan-
nah will shortly have a mammoth labor or
ganization, the membership of which will
run into the thousands. ain Unity There
Is Strength" will be the motto of the fedora
tion. No fear need DO felt that the combi-
nation of labor is intended to bring about
strikes. On the contrary IL will discounte-
nance everything OF that kind except as a
last resort, but when such a move becomes
necessary the trade interested will have
brethren by the thousands to aid ID in vic
tory. The injury Of one will be the concern
Of all.
A preliminary meeting to start the fedora
ton movement will be held at an early day.
