HOW THE Rich LIVE

The preliminary examination in the
BORDEN murder cases at Fall River,
Mass, was concluded during the past
week. 1t will be remembered that per-
haps a month ago a man seventy years
of age and his wife, some years younger,
were murdered with an AK about II
o'clock one morning in their own house
on a %freQuented city street. Their
daughter, LIZZIE BORDEN. a woman of
thirty-two, was after some delay az
rested on suspicion, and has now been
grand jury.
The hearing recently completed has
been exceedingly interesting on many
accounts, but especially for its revel-
atiOnS about the domestic life of the
murdered mans family. This was gone
into very thoroughly in the search for a
motive for the crime. The old man
BORDEN was worth more than half a
million dollars. and was a officer in
several local banks and financial institu-
tons. He occupied a two-Story-and-a-half
frame dwelling along with his wife and
two spinsterdaughters. They employed
II servant, a woman. She did most
of the kitchen work and the heavier
parts of the other household work. The
wife and daughters did the rest, with
the assistance of the father.
On the witness stand the servant tes-
titled that on the morning of the muir
der she got up at 6 o'clock and started
a fire to get breakfast. While she was
doing this the murdered woman came
into the kitchen and asked, What have
you for breakfast"' Soup and cold
mutton" the girl replied. Warm them
over" Mrs. BORDEN then said, ..but
save enough out for dinner" At this
point Mr.. BORDEN, the murdered man,
came down from his sleeping room, car
rying in. his hand a bucket of dirty
water, which he took out in the rear of
the house and emptied.
This picture seems to have reused the
curiosity of the defendants attorney.
and he proceeded to question the girl
closely as to what the family had been
eating for a day or two back. First he
wanted to know whether there were not
pears for breakfast on the morning of
the murder. BRIDGET replied that there
were pears i'll the house. but she did not
think they had any for breakfast.
"Were tae pears ripe?" asked the law
yer. "They did not seem to be-" she
answered. "They looked green. Mr..

Claims for Damages on the We
Side 10 Re COuSiSarad

Claims for Damages on the West
Side to Be Considered.
The aldermanic committee on claims
disposed OF a batch of bills against the
city yesterday afternoon. All claims
for damages growing out of the heavy
rainstorm of July 26 and the Page street
washout were referred to the cooperation
attorney and city. engineer. The opin-
ION OF the committee was that a meeting
should be called of the persons who had
filed claims, and the question Of dam
ages decided upon. The communication
from City Treasurer Miller in reference
to bills Of clerk of the districts courts
for entering judgments in assessment
cases was laid over, there being no bill
presented for the work.
The claim of NJ. H. Ward, for plumb
ing at the central station, was laid over
until Mr.. Ward could he present and
explain the work done.

A 8 O'Clock Oh the morning of the

dinner.
This is the way men worth half a mill

great difficulty in the case against
LIZZIE BORDEN is to find any reason
for her killing her parents. Is it not
possible that a healthy desire for a
square meal drove her to the crime.

The Woman Who Stole ParEer's Dia-

Ida Allen, one of the colored women
charged with stealing a valuable diamond
ring from George f. Parker, was tried
before Superior Judge Catlin yesterday.
j. G. Kelly was sworn as the first wit
ness. He testified as to how Parker and
himself were en- route homeward about
10 one O'Clock night. when they were ac-
costed, near Fourth and l. streets, by two
colored women, who became quite ia
miliar. The young men left as soon as
possible, and Parker had not gone far
before he missed the ring, which had been
IN vest pocket.
Parker also gave similar testimony, and
told of the robbery and the subsequent
arrest Of Ida Allen and PET Ansley.
Police Captain Lee testified that the
Allen woman admitted to him, after sew
eral interviews, that. she had stolen the
sparkler.
The defense was that Parker in his
fondness of the ''cullud ladies' dropped
the ring, and the defendant found it.
The jury was not out long. A verdict
OF guilty, but with recommendation for
mercy, was rendered.

CLEAR AND PURE.
Another Experimental Well Sunk East
of the City,
he Water of the Same Quality as that
in the Oak Park WeII-The
supply Abundant.

Although there has not been much
said of late concerning the proposition to
supply the city with pure water from the
gravel section east of the city, the few
public-spirited citizens who some months
ago were appointed a committee to pur-
sue the matter of sinking experimental
wells have not been idle, by any means.
The public are aware that the Oak Park
experiment was perfect success, and
now equally as tlattering results have
been obtained at the Clark place, east oi
the city limits aud on line with NJ
street, under which thoroughfare it is
proposed to lay the main supply pipe,
This litter well has just been COM
pleted. 1t passes through the same
stratas of clay and gravel that were en-
countered in the Oak Park well, and ap-
pears to have tapped the same body of
water that supplies the former. With a
small engine (and siX-inch pipe $4,000
gallons of water per hour has been
pumped, without lowering the water in
the well. By next week the committee
will have the we'll enlarged and more
powerful engine and pump, when they
expect the we'll To yield 900 gallons
per hour right along.
At this rate, one well would be capable
of supplying the city at this season of the
year, and two such wells would supply
fully 20,000,000 gallons more than is now
used here in the midsummer months.
But the city would not be required to de-
pend on one, nor two, nor any limited
number of wells for supply, but could
have as many as it might be deemed pru-
dent to bore.
That there is an inexhaustible supply
of pure water flowing beneath the gravel
deposits east of the city, there can no
longer be any doubt. The only question
appears to be, shall we avail ourselves of
1t, or shall we continue to depend on the
polluted river that drains the valley for
hundreds Of miles?
Medical science has developed the fact
that very large proportion of the dis
eases which atfiict humanity are the di-
rect result Of drinking impure water.
Disease germs lose none of their vitality
by being carried along in water, although
the water itself may be more or less clari-
fled and improved so far as its appear
ance and taste are concerned. An cpl
demic of typhoid fever, diphtheria, ETC.. in
town that discharges its sewage into a
river from which other towns obtain
their water supplies, will be repeated in
those communities where that water is
used for domestic purposes.
1t is safe TO say that if this city could
be supplied with suDterranean Tor mount
aim water of as good quality as that of
the Sacramento River before it becomes
polluted in its passage through the valley,
there would be an immediate improve
ment in the sanitary condition of the
people and corresponding decrease in
the death-rate.
Surely, this is something worth MAX
ing an effort to secure.
