before the Pribyloff islands were discov-

the discovery and ownership of the Priby-
loft island sould not destroy the previous
right of mankind. He went into minute
analysis of the municipal laws OF France,
England and the United States respecting
property in wild animals, to prove that
the law could not be enforced in support
of the American claim to property in seals.

Notice to Water Consumers.


We are again compelled to call your at
tention to water waste. On July 25 we
pumped and sent through the pipes 79s, 900
gallons of water. The record of the pump
counter shows that from Z a. m. to IL m.
we pumped 100, 400 gallons; from 2 p. m.
to p. m., 271, 900 gallons average for 5
hours a. m. of $4,000 gallons per hour;
average for hours p. m. of 81 ZOO gallons
per hour.
This is evidence conclusive that it is not
the ordinary use of water for domestic
and manufacturing purposes that requires
this unusual amount from 2 to 5 p. m. of
the day, but on the contrary it is the use
and waste permitted under the So called
sprinkling privilege. 1t is not all consum-
ers that permit this waste; but to those
who do, we issue this note of warning,
and it becomes necessary to issue the fol-
lowing restrictive order: The sprinkling
of yards and streets will be restricted to
the hours between and 6 am. and and
z p. m. of each day. Permit to sprinkle
does not include using hose in shape of
fountains, and when parties are found so
using they will be charged fountain rates.
Neither is it allowed that parties sprinkle
the grounds and streets of their neighbors.
This prevails to some extent, and must
cease! Children must not be allowed to
use hose for mere pleasure and waste of
water. These restrictions must be needed,
as the present waste endangers the nee
essary daily supply to consumers. By
order, water works trustees.
