NEW WATER SUPPLY.
The Contractor Almost Ready to Test
Five of the Wells.

The Contractor Almost Ready to Test
Five of the Wells.
In response to inquiries made yester-
day RECoRD-UNIoN reporter was in
formed that work is progressing rapidly
on the wells from which it is proposed to
supply the city with pure, fresh water.
Contractor Fish has five wells sunk to
the desired depth, and is now engaged in
making preparations to test their ca
pacity Each well is to be supplied with
pump capable of throwing 10000 gallons
of water per hour, and if they stand this
test for a considerable period the con-
tractor will go ahead and sink as many
more in the same locality as will be re-
quired to supply the city.
Ten such wells will furnish 100000
gallons daily, which is greatly in excess
of the city's present demands.
While referring to the matter Of the
water supply, it may not be out of place
to call the attention of the Board OF
Health and other officials to the fact that
fishermen's ark is tied to the river
bank about thirty yards above where the
present water works suction-pipe enters
| the river. On this scow fishermen make
their home. and all their refuse matter is
| cast into the river on direct line with
and in close proximity to the mouth OF
| the suction-pipe.
| Why such a thing is allowed, within
| fifty yards of the City Hall, is one OF
those mysteries that occasionally crop up
to puzzle communities. If any advocate
| of river water finds his house supply
pipe suddenly choked some day, he need
not wonder at the cause lnor the flavor
4 the water.

POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL.
How a Californian Looks at the Stu
alton in the East.
Acknowledgement Hart Returns Home
and Tells What He Saw
and Heard.

Attorney. General Hart returned from
his visit to the East Tuesday night, feel
ing much better for his trip.
In conversation with RECoRD-UNIoN
reporter he said that California has great
reason to be thankful for the state of
things here, as we do not have any idea
of what "hard times" means, as COM
pared with the East. Everyone there is
still suffering from the effects of the
financial crisis and it is likely to continue
all winter without getting better. We
have not, either, to face the rigors of
climate like theirs, and although our
poor will suffer, their sufferings will not
be as terrible as those of the poor who
are exposed to the rigors of an Eastern
winter.
Speaking of the political situation there,
he said the Democrats are much more
severe on President Cleveland than the
Republicans are, and the result of the
recent elections is largely due to that feel
ing.
The financial stringency and the out
flow of gold from the country, he thought
were easily explainable. The internal
troubles Of the Argentine Republic, the
failure of the Barings and those OF the
Australian banks all contributed to break
down the value OF almost all securities.
Finding that to be the case. the tinanciers
of England and Germany, in need of
funds, and American bonds being at par,
commenced to send them home to US and
take our gold in exchange. The strin-
gency beginning to be felt, depositors
began to withdraw their money and the
banks to contract their loans.
1t was not the wealthy depositors who
withdrew their deposits; it was the labor
ing classes and those who had laid up a
little money for rainy day, and great
deal of it has not gone back to the banks,
but is being held by them to keep them
through the winter. At least Sl5,OO0,O0O
were drawn out in California alone. The
depositors, few of them. lost faith in the
banks, but in truth the banks were worse
scared than their depositors were. Money
is tied up in the stocking foot, and will,
great deal of it, stay there.
When President Cleveland saw the
trend of events, the speaker thought, he
made up his mind to throw the blame on
SILVER. He had examined the Mckinley
bill and found it different thing from
what he had thought and saw that a
change would not be for the better, as
there were II per cent. more articles on
the free list than ever before. 1t would
not be wise to change it, so he dropped
that issue and took up silver. The peo-
pie waited year, and finding that moth
ing had been done with the principal
planks of the platform on which he had
been elected, they got tired of uncertainty
and rebuked him by voting the Repub-
Gcan ticket.
There are are thousand OF people COM
ing here, he said, both on account OF the
Midwinter Fair and to try our climate.
They are the middle classes of the East.
too, who will bring money with them,
and invest it if they like our State.

the season of 1885, 1894 last night at Turner

ance and the floor was comfortably flied

flags, streamers and shields. while ferns,
palms and potted plants lent their beauty
to the surroundings. Fisch, Jones d
Watson's orchestra sent dulcet strains
echoing through the room, putting in mo-

it so.

THE WHIST FIEND.
That One Who Lets Himself Loose IN
a Railway Train.

a Railway Train.
The noisy man who plays cards in the
smoking-car of the suburban trains
should be suppressed. He rushes aboard
at his station in the morning. rudely-
pushing his way and jostling people who
are stepping on board in an ordinary,
quiet way. He is a hurry to get seat in
one of the compartments where the seats
face each other. When he gets seated he
wells to some friend at the other end of
the car to come and make up whist
game, Then he finds that the stranger
seated next to him does not want to play,
and he asks him if he will change seats
with some whist player if he can find
one; and then prowlS all over the car,
saying to men he knows and men he does
not know, want to play whist?'' until
he finds one who consents to play.
When he gets the game started he plays
it mostly with his mouth. When iJ is his
turn to play he thumps the cards down
with bang, and when he or his partner
takes a trick unex pectedly with a low
card he whoops and laughs in an unneces-
sarily loud voice. About every two min
utes you will hear him ask, "What is
trumps?'' When the cards are being
shufIled he criticises the playing of the
last hand, and tells his partner how much
better it would have been if he had not
played the queen, 'sfor then, don't you
| know, / could have took the trick with
my ten of spades. See?"
AS he leaves the train and goes up the
street you hear him for block or two
demonstrating in a loud voice to some
one how much different the game would
have ended if Smith had led trump or
| if Jones had one more club.
All the railroad whist players are not
like this one, but there is always one of
this class in every smoking car, and that
| is one too many.
We repeat, and this time with empha-
sis, that the noisy railroad card-player
should be uppressed.-Atlanta Herald.

night under sentence OF three years for
assault to murder. On searching him
after his arrival at the prison, as is GUS
tomary, he refused to take off his boots,

On being questioned as to what he in

years was light sentence he changed his
