lrrigating
 canals, bitches
 and Reservoirs.

The above cut illustrates an AUTOMATIC WATER GATE, to regulate and keep in subjecton the rise of water in canal due to an over-abund- ant flow, or to sudden rises in the canal owing to severe rains or storms.
 It is particularly valuable to have such a Water Gate placed in lower bank of canal, at such points along it's line Where there are Ravines Gulles Arroyos, Foot Hills, Buttes, or Tableland, any rains or storms bring down at such points surplus of water that is very dangerous to the banks of canal. The Waste Gate, however, will prevent such damage, as it is
 SELF-ACTING AND PERFECT SAFETY VALVE Relieving the canal, at short intervals of it's sur plus water, thus preventing the washing away of banks, and causing great damage generally, no alone to canal, but property owners all along the line, who may suffer more or less damages there after for the want of water owing to the damaged condition of canal and while such repairs are being made. Not only is it valuable to relieve canal of its surplus water, to prevent damage and ex- pense, but by its use the first cost of canal con- struction will be materially lessened as the banks need not be made so high or wide.
 The device is extremely simple, and compara- lively inexpensive. Its plan of operation is this:
 There is pipe fastened to an opening in the vertical gate, l. When the body of water rises to the level Of the upper end of pipe, 2, water runs freely into the tank 3, which is immediately filled thus overbalancing the weight, 4, which is on the other end of lever, 5, thus forcing open the gate which suddenly relieves the canal of large sur plus of water. When body of water recedes below a certain level, no more water is admitted to the tank; therefore empties itself by a small faucet opening, 6, at the bottom; this being done, the weight overbalances tank, and brings down the lever, which, being rigid to the swinging gate, closes it. This operation continues at short in tervals, so long the body of water keeps rising over a certain level. The lever gate pipe and tank all rigid, and hinge, pivot, hori- zontal shaft. The gate, Hume or bex can be made any height, width, or length desired. The gate can be hinged between any bulkhead without box.
 The Water Gate is a Perfect Safety Valve, and is to body of water what safety valve is to steam. They can be made any size, corresponding with body of water and size of canal. It is secured by letters patent, and for sale only by

MANUFACTURERS IN DOUBT
Whether 10 Close Mills at Fall River or Worry
Along with Few Looms Running.

FALL. RIVER, Mass, Oct. 49, Three
demonstrations were made on the public
streets by striking weavers during the week,
to induce operatives affected by the reduc-
ton in wages to remain away from the mills
until the same concessions are made that
we're made to the spinnsrs week ago.
They are successful to the extent that this
afternoon hardly % 900 Of the SO 900 looms
are in operation. The weavers met on the
South park, at 10 ia the forenoon, where
they were addressed by two weavers and by
the secretary. The secretary announced a
meeting of the union tomorrow morning in
Music hall. and another mass meeting at
the park Monday mcrniHg After the meet
ing, thousands of people formed into the
rs gged line and began marching, some
carrying flags and waving handkerchiefs.
They passed to the linen and iron works
mills. At one they jeered because
force; at the other they cheered
vociferously because no reduction was made
there. At the Iron Works mills cheers
were given ,or the owner, who is ex-Park
Commissioner M. G. n. Borden of New
York. Perhaps thousand persons marched
ia the roads and as many more went on the
sidewalks. The passing of Union, Mer-
chants, Durfees, Stafford mills was signal
lied by increased cheers and 'hoots and
yells of the processionists. In the eastern
section of the city where the mills
have been running full the
band played music slowly and shouts
and jeers in front of mills greatly
increase in volume. Taken as whole the
parading was not disorderly. At all the
mill gates passed policemen stood in full
sight but made no attempt to stop the yell
ing. Secretary Whitehead said during the
parade if any attempt was made by the
strikers to raise trouble, expulsion from the
union would follow and the officials would
lend the police every possible assistance in
experimenting the offender. The result of
the three parades has been that the manu-
facturers tonight are in doubt whether to
close the mills another few weeks or run
along and give the excited weavers chance
to wear out their feelings.

The Parsons Impertinent Question.

heard story the other day of an old
fashioned clergyman.
He is settled over no church; but, hav'
ing been for long time in one parish, he
has performed the marriage ceremony fol
two generations and baptized as many and
is always asked either to tender tho last
rites to the dead or at least to assist In
that solemn office
He is always very comforting to the
mourners, for the departed is sure OF
heaven.
But as he grew older his prayers grew
longer and SO roundabout and tiresome
withal that they became almost ridiculous.
One day the mother of little family
died suddenly, and the bereaved husband
sent for their regular minister and said
II must invite old DR.. Blank, for he
married us, and my wife loved him, but
can't endure his remarks. / want you to
give him small part of the service to save
his feelings"
The pastor thought he must give his
senior the prayer, but judge of his chagrin
when the old gentleman after fulsome
panegyric of the deceased said

THE ELDER DUMAS.
Careless In All Respects, He Was Most
Reckless Spendthrift.


The elder Dumas was one Of the most
careless of men in all respects. A spend
thrift of money and of genius he has been
rightly called Tho house during the boy
hood of Dumas the younger, says one who
knew it we'll, was continually full of liter
airy toadies, bohemians and impccunious
artists. These formed the great Dumas
court, burned incense under his face, ate
his dinners, borrowed his money and for
got to repay it and passed his boy from
hand to hand as an artistic curiosity that
was to be admired or as pet dog that
was to be spoiled
In this fashion the lad grow up until
he was IS, at which age his father placed
a roll Of banl; notes in his hands and spoke
in this paternal wise: ''When a man in
horits the name Of Alexandra Dumas, he
should lead tho life of a prince, dine at
the Cafe Apglais and be generous with
his money. Go and amuso yourself. When
you have spent that, you shall have more.
If you contract debts, will pay them"
The elder Dumas practiced all he preach
cd, and by degrees the cash bowls on his
desk (his money was never locked up in
drawers, but lay in bowls, open to all
comcrs) began to be more and more often
empty.
One day when his son camo to levy sup

Luck Stood by Him.

A veteran of the Aroostook war tells a
story Of how good luck brought q poor
marksman out OF bad scrape. Governor
Fairfield visited Houlton and reviewed the
troops stationed there as commander In
chief, and of course it was the biggest
kind of n military event The Dexter Ri
fle company had some crack shots in IT,,
and as a part of the exercises In honor OF
the governors coming they We're marched
out for target practice. As they made
some excellent hits, the figure of an In
dian being a mark, the governor expressed
loud enough for the men to hear:
Now, i would like To see your very best
marksman try his skill"
In the company was man noted for
never being able to hit anything, and at
once, in spirit of deviltry, the cry ran
along the line repeating his name in an
swer to tho governors call. Without
flinching he stepped six PAGES to the front
and saluted:
'Where do you want me to hit him,
governori' he asked, with perfect compo-
sure.
Just at the bottom of the left ear, sir, 3"
said the chief magistrate, pointing at the
mark.
IAN right, SIR The soldier raised his
gun, shut his eyes and turned his head
away as usual and fired. The men were
all on broad grin at the great joke of the
thing, but when the bullet struck the
mark, whiting off a piece of the Indians
left ear, there was shout of surprise that
could be heard all over the township
