FRUIT AND MIXED WATER.
Tho Combination Getting in It's Work
on Weak Stomachs.

Tho Combination Getting in It's Work
on Weak Stomachs.
The big fruit crop aud the drinking of
mixed arteSian and rlEer water are getting
in their wQek for tbs doctors.
The volume of river yater introduced
into the artesian water varies. At low tides,
when the flow OF the wells is lessened. more
river water is required TO prevent the en-
Rlnes from pounding than at high tides
DR. Stone, who Is an expert on artesian
water, speaking of the mixip. of the waters
said there is no doubt about the introduce
ton OF the river water tainting the artesan
supply, rendering it to a certain extent i'm
pure, and deranging the systems of those
who drink it. When the river water was
the only water used it was never fl for
drinking purposes, except when filtered,
and its mixing with arteSian water in an
untteredl condition naturally carries i'm
puritie' intqLtb peoples drinking supply.
To DR.. stone is largely due the adoption
or arteslsn water by the city. He is one of
the best posted men In Savannah on the
subject. He insists that the present ar
tesian supply at the water works is ample
for the city's needs without the aid OF river
water II consumers were more
careful about its use. He called
attention TO Supt Manning's calcula-
| tions in 1890, which were made one sunday
luoTnlnB at o:oU O'CLOCK, and showed the
pumping of 5000 gallons per minute at a
time when little wator is needed for ordi-
nary purposes. These figures, DR.. Stone
said, show an appalling waste, when only
| TT gallons more were necessary at 80
O'Clock in the afternoon, when the demand
for water Is about as great as it ever be-
comes. The only solution Of this waste is
the allowing Of water to run constantly in
closets, which. being unnecessary, is a
menace to health on account Of the seal
being open and the opportunity given foul
gases to escape.
DIR. Stone quoted from authorities TO
show that sixty gallons per capita daily is
an ample amount for residents of large
commercial cities, while in Savannah the
daily consumption of water is 1863 GALLONS.
From this state of affairs it needn't be won
dered at that recourse to the river is neces-
sarY to supply an enormous waste.
| The only remedy for the difficulty, Dr.
Stone said. and one that the city will have
TO adopt sooner or later ia self-protection, is
the meter system. II people find that they
will have to pay for the water allowed to 20
to waste they will find way of using it
only as necessity requires Unless some-
thing is done very soon it is predicted the
city will experience the same difficulty re-
Rarding deficiency with the new water
works. People knowing that the supply will
be largely increased will tecome even more
careless than they are now.

Through Electric Cars to Begin Run
ming Monday.
President J. S. Collins of the Electric
Railway Company said yesterday that the
Savannah and Isle Of Hope railway tc
Thuuderbolt will opened for travel Sunday.
A schedule is now being made up and will
be announced tomorrow morning.
Cars will run from the market direct
to Thunderbolt. and the regular cars on the
belt will also transfer passengers at Gwin-
nett street for Thunderbolt.
The fare will be Is cents for the round
trip. Coupon tickets having three small
coupons besides the body Of the ticket will
be sold by the conductors. The conductor
who sells the ticket will tear off the first
coupon. The conductor on the Isle OF Hope
railway will tear off one coupon
and another returning and the oonr
ductor on the main line will take
up the remainder Of the ticket. From the
market to Thunderbolt is about six miles.
This will give 12-mile ride for 10 cents, or
about fifteen miles il the passenger chooses
10 go around the belt to reach his destina-
ton.
This is about cent a mile, which is cheap
riding even for q street railway. Heretofore
it has cost 35 cents TO reach Thunderbolt, IL
cents for street car fare TO and from the
depot and Is cents for the round trip from
the depot to Thunderbolt and return. The
public gets the advantage OF the competi-
tion Immediately.
The result will be that Thunderbolt will
draw largely for a time at least, especially
Sundays.
The track Of the Savannah aud Isle Of
Hope railway has been put in frst-olass
condition. New curves have been put in,
and every facility necessary for quick
transportation has been added.
The time from the market to Thunderbolt
is estimated at twenty-five minutes. Pres.
ideut Purse of the Savannah aud Isle OF

The Savannah rlfemen who went to

Broad was one Of the features OF their visit
to the Buncombe capitol.
One of the things which the ridenen be-

met on their way from Savannah
to Columbia, a pretty South Carolina
girl who won their hearts, and who will
receive in a few days an appropriate token
in Acknowledgements OF her promise of devo-
tion TO the Savannah men. 1t was over a
watermelon they met. The chance
acquaintance, the rifemen believe, brought
them success.

TIE DANGER FROM FRnsHETs.
Farmers and Rice Planters Deeply
Concerned Just Now.

Farmers and Rice Planters Deeply
Concerned Just Now.
The rice planters and farmers along the
Savannah river are exceedingly anxious at
this season OF the year during any iutima-
ton of q frsshet, and the weather bureau
reports are very closely watched. There is
considerable complaint that the reports re-
ceived in Savannah by the weather bureau
and published daily In the MORNING NEWS do
not give the true condition Of the river at
Augusta, which Il the point where its hight
is reported.
AS the reports are now received the
hight OF the river at Augusta reported by
the weather bureau does not reach the read
| ers OF the MORNING NEWS, which is the
principal medium Of information to the
farmers and planters, until twsnty-four TO
thirty-six hours after the observation has
been made. The observations are now
made at o'clock a. m. They are sent out
at night and are not published In the news
papers until the following morning.
The principal changes in the condition OF
the river at Augusta occur during the day.
IL the hight Of the water is reported at "A
feet In the morning and reaches % or 30
feet during the day and falls again rapidly,
as 10 frequently the case, TO perhaps the
sams stage a. ht the time OF the previous
observation, the maximum hight is not re-
ported at all. and that Is what is OF the most
importance to those interested-the farmers
and rico planters.
What is wanted Is a night observation
and report from Augusta 80 that the farm
era and planters will know In the morning
what the hight of the river was the night
before. II such an observation we're taken
it would reach the planters within short
time and would put them in possession of
the information they want and which is
of the utmost Importance to them during
the seasons when freshets are likely to co.
cur.
Observer Smyth has recommended to the
department at Washington that whenever
freshets are imminent these night observa-
tlons be taken and sent out, and that the
taking OF Sunday observations, which was
abandoned some months ago, be re-
sumed. 1t is very probable that acting
upon the observers recommendation, the
river reports will be 80 revised as to give the
Information which is Of the most value to
those interested. 1t is very important how
ever, that the matter receive early atten-
ton, as the next two months are the most
critical TO rice planting interests, and a
freshet coming down the river, without
the planters having timely notice, may re-
suit in Thousands of dollars damage.
Observer Smyth says he has daily in
quiries at the weather bureau concerning
she condition Of the river, and the forecast
of the weather from farmers and planters
along the river and all around Savannah.

Can Come from the same State

Hon. George S. Boutwell, writes in the
Boston Globe TO show that there is moth.
ing in the United States constitution to
prevent president and vice president
from being residents of the same state.
This document declares only that the
electors in their respective states shall
vote for a president and vice president.
one Of whom shall not be a resident of
the same state with themselves. Even
II the country wanted a president and
vice president from the same state, the
difficulty could be got around by the
electors from that state simply emitting
TO vote, and leaving those from the
other states to vote for the nominees.
But the provision in the constitution
imposes no limitation whatever on con-
gress as to whom it shall vote for in case
OF failure TO choose by the electoral col
lege. The house is simply directed to
choose for president one of the three
persons having the highest number of
votes for president, while the senate is
directed to select vice president from
the two candidates having the highest
number of votes for vice president.
Thus there is absolutely nothing to pre-
vent the Democratic house from elect
ing Mr.. Cleveland president and the Re-
publican senate from choosing Mr.. Reid
as vice president. 1t would be some
thing new to have a president and vice
president of different political parties,
but 1t would not be unconstitutional.
and the wheels of time and government
would still roll on.
Mr.. Boutwell, calls attention to the
fact that the country has drifted quite
away from the political intentions of
those who adopted the constitution.
They had not the faintest notion of the
cut and dried primary election and
nominating convention of our time.
Under our modern system of nominal
ing candidates the electoral college has
become practically obsolete.
Mr.. Boutwell, says:
With the experience Of q century in mind
we are forced to look upon the electoral COL
lege scheme as IL was then understood, as an
smiable delusion, but still delusion.
In theory the colleges Of the several states
were to be composed Of persons not pledged 10
party or TO candidates. and who, with a clear
ness Of vision undimmed by venal or low con-
siderations, were TO survey the whole field and
call TO the high places Of state the truly great
and enninently worthy OF the land.
IL that scheme had life at the beginning its
existence ended with the second term Of Presi-
dent Washington.
