WATER PRESSURE.
some Interesting Facts From Other Cities


 Alderman j. NJ. Goza has been in yestigating the water pressure main tained iii other cities for domestic and fire purposes and he has gleaned some interesting facts For instance, Houston, Tex, maintains d pressure of 45 pounds for domestic purposes and l00to 125 for fire purposes; Little Rock, 75 to S5; Dallas, % stand ard and from 70 to 100 in case of fire; Fort Smith, domestic 45, fire 100, and can be increased to 300 if necessary; Hot Springs, 1l5 pounds required; Paris, Tex, 4S to 3.
 The Pine Bluff Water X Light Com pany claim that under their contract they are not compelled to keep a pressure ofover 25 pounds for domes- tic purposes. and it is q rare occa- sion when they can get up pressure of over 30 pounds in case of fire.
 From the figures presented above our people can get some idea Of the efficiency of our home company in c0mparisison with other companies
 The TalIadega- -whiteylile Barbecue.
 TYRONE, Ark, Aug. 3, 1S94 Dear GRAPHIC;
 The barbecue at this place given by the people of Talladega and White vile townships today was a perfect success so far as something good to eat and social enjoyment are com cened.
 The day was delightful and every body seemed to strive to makeeyery- ooGy else happy. We were all disap- pointed not to see more Pine Bluff people out to help make the occasion more enjoyable.
 There was very general disappoint- ment that business prevented that silver-tongued orator, Col $. Nj. Fay Tor, from attending and addressing the Democrats of this section. How erer the crowd was appeased by the assurance of parties from your city that the editor of the GRAPHIC, Hon. J. W. Adams, would be down on the 3 o'clock train. Everybody wanted to hear something about Democracy and when the train passed the sta-

During the tasting process Punch al

AT THESALEM ACADEMY.
THE GIRLS EECEIVE MANY HAND
SOME PRESENTS.
The Rooms Appropriately and Tastily
Decorated-The Christmas Dins
Ber-GirIs HapDV

The Christmas holidays, perhaps
were enjoyed nowhere more than at
the Salem Academy.
he school closed Dec. 22nd, when
about fifty or sixty girls left for their
respective homes. However. about
remained to spend the holidays in
their rooms, on the Fairgrounds, ETC.
AS soon as the school closed prepa-
rations were made for decorating the
rooms, which was done on Saturday.
Through the courtesy of Principal
Clewell and Miss E NJ Burden (the
latter taking special course at the
academy a SENTINEL representative
was permitted to take a peep az the
many lovely and appropriate decora-
lions las well as the beautiful girls
Every room was an attraction and had
home-like appearance. Many hand
some and costly presents, sent from
the homes of the young ladies, were on
exhibition. There were three or four
express wagon loads of them. Tables,
shelves and closets were filed with al
most every imaginable thing. These
presents were distributed Christmas
morning, when the young ladies re-
marked that the occasion reminded
Unem ol 'Olu SdQUa OlduS al nome"
The 'outlay" was also reminder of a
big exposition, for the girls were very
liberal in exchanging presents.
The school gave every girl pack
age consisting of cakes, candy, apples,
etc.
The Christmas dinner was in keep
ing with the usual 'tempting spreads"
given by the academy. Turkey and
cranberry sauce, celery and mince pie
were among the good things served.
The chief feature of the dinner was
the lighting of the large dining-room.
A wax taper was burning at each
girls plate as well as on the windows.
The room was previously made dark.
The gas jets all had On colored globes
and were burning brightly. To these
were added fifteen electric lights
making in all about 135 lights in the
room. The effect was bewildering,
and reminded one of transformation
scenes in an opera hall.
The week is being spent quietly but
pleasantly by principal, teachers and
pupils. 1t is week of rest, says Rev
Mr. Clewell. Many of the young ladies
expressed themselves to the writer
that they could hardly realize they
were away from home.

A WINSTON HUNTER.
He Went to Guilford to Spend Christ
mas-How he Got Lost.

mas-How he Got Lost.
The best story of the holidays is
told to THE SENTINEL ON a Winston
hunter-and the man himself admits
to the truthfulness Of the story his
friends tell on him.
Sunday, Dec. "a, the hunter went to
Guilford county to spend the Christ
Monday he started out with a pack of
hounds for big hunt. In the mean
time he took on" some ardent spirits
or what the Wilkes county people
call ''old corn licker." He also had
bottle filled up for use during the day.
"Old cOrn," as it generally does, got
the upper-hand of the hunter and in
the afternoon he was anxious to know
where he was. He continued his
rambles until night came on when he
concluded to end up the day with
ing and rambling through the woods
untilrnext morning when he awoke
and found himself in bed at his board
ing house in Winston. He could not
realize what he had done or where he
was until he got up and saw his pack
of dogs standing around the house
awaiting for him to come out. 10 be
certain he was the right man ne went
to the mirror and viewed himself
carefully from head to foot.
When asked what he caught the
young man avowed he caught one pos
sum. He tries to make his statement
clear by exhibiting tooth which he
says he must have pulled from the lit
tie animals mouth.
How he ever got to Winston he is
unable to explain. He says he walk
ee distance of about twenty miles.
He sent his dogs home by express.

A GOOD MAN GONE.
A Friends Testimonial on the Life Of
Rev John Alspaugh.
To the Editor of The sentinel.l

To the Editor of The Sentinel.l
The death of Rev. John Alspaugh
obliterates one Of the oldest land
marks in the county Of Forsyth, and
ends the career of one Of natures no
blest works-an honest man.
This great, good man has exempli-
fed in his life, extending across al
most one hundred years, the possibili-
ty of a man, even in this world, living
btamelesS life. No one ever heard of
this man having lawsuit in court, or
even a difficulty with a neighbor. No
one ever heard of his failing to meet
duty he owed, either to the public or
to private individual. But the liv-
ing of stainless life-the doing of no
harm to his fellowman-is not the
highest encomium to be ascrlbed to
his name. He accomplished great
deal of good in the world. The ser
mons he preached, the churches he
built. the ennobling principles and
doctrines he inculcated will live on,
like a wave upon the ocean, until it
strikes shore upon the other side, when
time shall be no more. Not content
with being harmless only; not satisfied
with merely the inculcation of sacred,
moral and religious principles, his
doors ever stood open to the wants of
those who sought him in need; and his
heart of sympathy never failed to-
wards the unfortunate, the afflicted
or distressed. Few men have ever
lived of better mould or of nobler en-
dowments of head or heart.
Long may his example live to bless
the world and all who come after
him. FRIEND.

They are Oniy Waiting.

Mr.. Forbis, GreensboIo's new post
master, took charge Dec. 28th.
Nessrs. Wilson and Belo are waiting
on the authorities at Washington to
learn the amount of their respective
bonds for the Winston and Salem Off
ces. By the way they have all the
applications they can attend to, hence
there is no need of anybody else ap-
plying for either a clerkship or carri-
er's place. Mr.. Wilson says that he
can now realize the trouble he and the
other off1ce-seekers gave the powers
that be- at Washington.
LATER.-Since writing the above
THE SENTINEL learns that Messrs.
Wilson and Belo have been officially
notified of their appointment. The
formers bond is $14, 600, but his bonds
men must be worth double that
amount. Mr. Wilson says no applica-
tions for positions will be considered
by him until after the civil service
examination.
