II you are determined Il wear your
watch like the rcst OF womankind, thrust
II into your bodice; IL ~ good idea TO
have sewed securely TO the lining Of each
waist one Of the patent fastening hooks
which have TO be pressed In order to pass
over anything. Clasp this over the big
link ut the end OF your chain. and you are
comparatively safe. A strong handed
thief may break the chain, but cannot
capture the watch. II this Is impossible
II is at any rate always casy TO fasten a
fancy pin through the end OF the chain,
which will keep II from slipping away and
render Il little less easy to grab,
Another excellent plan would be TO have
small pocket sewed to the lining Of each
bodice at the place whore Il IN natural 20
slip tho watch. This pocket could open
toward the front, mud when the watch was
thrust In could fasten by means of one OF
the patent loops 10 nm eyelet crooheted on
the lining OF the bodice
with the watch securely tucked In such
receptacle, even with the chain dangling
daintily down the front OF the gown, a
woman might safely venture into crowd
and not be Obliged to keep one hand con
tlnually over her breast to protect her
property. --Cineinnat Commercial Gazette.

A very important question, from the
point OF Wow OF the noufishment OF new

tains sufficiently nutritlye value. For.

milk ought 10 DO used In state ~ nearly
like in possible TO that In which Il il when
issuing from the breast, and uncooked
milk was the only kind employed for feed.
Ing infants. Nowadayr, however, since II
has been clearly demonstrated that milk
may be an agent for the transmission OF
various diseases, such a. eruptive fevefs,
typhoid fever and especially consumption,
most authors and physicians agree In
recommending that boiled milk only should
he given to infants.
This practice il assuredly excellent from
the point Of view Of prophylaAis against
contagious diseases, but II IN equally good
from the point Of view " allmentary by.

In Lincoln park, Chicago, Is an arto-
sian well TINT supplies twenty gallons OF
puro water minute TO thirsty crowds.
Artcsian well water generally is pre-.
ferred to that which cities get by piping
from lakes and rivers, because II con
tains less decaying organic matter,

in tho earth. The large well In Lincoln
park Is 800 feet deep, and there Is in
the park also another well OF this kind,
flowing constantly. During the disturb.
ancc Of tho water supply some time
since in Chicago ono hotel triumphed

drink the ordinary hydrant water.
II seems that there are large possibili.
ties in the artesian well industry for
cities and for smaller towns. An estab.
lishment that had It's own well would be
independent at all times Of tho water
department. For hrcs and seasons OF
drought and for other emergencies public
wells of this kind would DO useful IN

A CROss-TOwN RAILWAY.
The Commissioners Hear Arguments for G
Against Its Construction.

The Commissioners Hear Arguments for and
Against Its Construction.
Two railroad bills were before the Commits
sioners at the noon session Of the board today.
One bill, Senate bill 1885, to incorporate the
East Washington Cross-town Railway Company,
and the other to amend the act giving the APP
provai and sanction of Congress to the route
and termini of the Anacostia and Potomac
River railroad in the District Of Columbia
As tie latter bill has already been reported
upon by the Commissioners its consideration
was deferred.
Commissioner Douglass then called for those
interested in the former, and Mr.. Z. II. Brown
rose to object. He did not believe there was
any necessity for the road in question, as it
proposed no needed accommodations. What
the people of the northeast wanted was easy
access between the east and west.
He objected particularly 10 the occupancy
of 9TH and 9Th streets. A road on them would
practically destroy the streets. They were
narrow. He did not think the road would pay
He summarized mis- objection by stating that
he objected generally TO the use Of any streets
where the citizens received no benefit
Mr.. n. 1. Weller, on behalf of the railroad
company, spoke in favor of the bill. The pro-
posed road he said, commences in Anacostia
at the intersection of Minnesota avenue with
Harrison street; thence along Minnesota ave-
nue. to and along Pennsylvania avenue, over
Eastern Branch bridge; thence westward along
Pennsylvania avenue to Sth street east;
thence north along Sth street to G street
southeast; thence along C westwardly to It'll
street east; then along 18th street east to
Florida avenue; thence westwardly along
Florida avenue to its intersection with North
Capitol street. He spoke at length Of the pub
lie need and demand claimed for the road.

Ex-State Treasurer Don Antonio F.
Coronel of Los Angeles, who with his
wife and several relatives have been in
the city several days as the guests of
David Lubin-they being interested in
the historical exhibit at the State Fair
will leave for home to-day. A telegram
was received last evening announcing the
death OF Mrs. CoronePs father. To Mrs.
Coronel is due the largest credit for the
getting up of the Los Angeles contribu-
ton to the historical exhibit, which is
the largest of the collection, and her de-
parture from the city is greatly regretted
by the managers of the exhibit, who had
hoped that the family would be able to
remain and enjoy needed rest after the
great labor to which they have been put
in placing the Los Angeles exhibit. Mrs.
Coronel leaves, however, several able
assistants and co-workers who will have
charge of the Los Angeles section, now
all in place. While here the lady has
won many friends who deeply sympa-
thize with her in her bereavement.

crowded they had their cases continued
until to-day.

charged with assault to commit murder,
In The late highlander riot, had their
cases continued till Saturday next.
Manuel Frates and George Mccarthy,
charged with the larceny of $54 from an
old woman named Peterson, were both
discharged for lack of discriminating evil
dence
Circumstances pointed strongly to their
guilt, and they are the two boys who
were recently implicated in the theft Of a
saddle and sentenced in the Superior
Court, after being allowed to plead guilty
to petit larceny in Judge Henry's Court.
In discharging them Judge Cravens
stated that they had acquired very bad
regulations, and had better not give him
chance to find them guilty hereafter.
