LAYING WATER MAINS.
How the Money Can BE Extended Under the
Permit System.

Permit system.
Capt Derby has discovered that under the
provisions of the permit system the water
department win be able TO just double the work
Of laying water mains
1t all came about from the INQUIRY in yester-
DAYS STAR relative TO the proper course TO pur-
Sue to get a water main laid.
As is well known the appropriation sor laying
water mains and doing other work in the water
department during the current fiscal year
amounted to but $4,000. The constant drain
upon this fund has brought il down TO $1,000.
which will be used TO lay new mains. There
are over l25 applicstions for water mains now
on file. and If the law OF precedence is followed
the last ones on the LIST may not be laid for two
years.
At the suggestion OF TIE STAR reporter yes-
terday Capt. Derby looked into this matter and
discovered way to partially remedy the diff
Guilty. There are any number OF applicants
who are not only willing 10 pay oae-han Of the
cost Of laying the mains. but would
willingly stand the entire expense Capt.
Derby thinks that the permit sys-
tenn can be applied 20 the remaining
money now on hand and today notified the FIRST
twenty applicants that If they made application
within ten days the water department would
pay one-half OF the cost OF laying the mains. II
Is expected that the applicants will avail them
selves Of this opportunity 70 get water main
with slight cost and quickly consume the re-
manning funds.
The appropriation for this work the coming
fiscal year Is the same. $4,000 but it may be
that the Commissioners will use il a. a permit
fund. and in that way be able TO do all the
work on the list.
Those who do not desire 20 avail themselves
of this offer TO get their water mains laid i'm
media'ely and pay one-half the cost therefor
and then have the water department 90 tic
work gratis.

Planked Shad at MarshalI Hall.

The steamers Charles Manchester and River
Queen will make two trips to Marshall Hail to-
morrow, leaving their wharf at II IN. and
2:i5 pm. On the green lawns of the hall there
will be found by those who make the trip the
toothsome shad cooked in the only way in
which it should be eaten.-roasted on q plank
before the fire. Ericures say that this is the
only way to treat the fish properly and it Ger
tainly cooks il in delicious manner. The
planked shad at Marshall Hall have become
famous all over the country and no stranger
has right to come to Washington aud go
away without INDUCING IN this luxury. The
ride down to the hall is an exceedingly pleas
ant one, as the steamers are well appointed
and every care is taken for the comfort Of the
