The First ArteSian Wells

The first of these is at Grenelle, near
Paris. This well was commenced in
1884, to supply the French capital with
water. When a depth of ,254 feet had
been reached a length of 270 feet of the
boring rods broke off a nd fell to the bottom
of the hole. Nowadays the laborious rcd
process is quite obsolete. Fifteen months
were taken up in fishing up the broken
rods, and then work was resumed When
the boring was carried down to 500 feet
the French government wished to stop
the work on the ground that further ex-
pense was simply throwing good money
after bad.
The savant, Arago, however, urged
them to exercise a little more faith and
patience His advice was followed with
the result that at depth of 500 feet
water was encountered, and those who
bad labored at the enterprise from 1884
to 1s41 were rewarded by seeing stream
of 500 gallons per minute escape from the
orifice of the well.
In 1855 another well was commenced in
the Paris basin. Water was tapped at
depth of SEQ feet, and this enormous
boring, which is two feet four inches In
diameter at the bottom, elected a stream
of water to a height of fifty feet and at the
enormous rate of $500 900 gallons per
day.-Chamber's Journal.

BONES OF CHOLERA VICTIMS
Old Skeletons Unearthed in a
Georgetown Street.
They Were Found by Workinen Who
We're Cutting II Ditch to Make
Water Connexions.

Considerable commotion has been created
in West Washington by the unearthing of
some human bones found buried under
one of the streets of that portion of the
District
Mcssrs. Waters & Poore, plumbers,
last Saturday began eXcavating in front
of the residence of MI Augustus Brown,
No. 33l l L street, for the purpose of max
ing a water connection After digging
about three feet human bones were dis
covered and as the work progressed more
were found They were collected and
when put together the skeletons OF four
human beings Were developed. They
were reburied in Mrs. Browns yard. When
unearthed the bones lay iengthwise along
j; street and Were placed in graves the
usual space apart.
The theory is that they were the remains
OF some OF the victims of the cholera plague
which visited this city IN the 30's The
point where the bones were found ad joins
the old Pres byterian burying ground.
There are 10 signs or coffins or boxes, and
the surroundings indicated that they We're
simply placed n the grave without any
covering but the earth. In one of the
graves piece OF siIspensier was found.
Mrs. Brown stated that when the founda
tiou of her house was dug a number of
bones were found a that time which We're
placed in dry goods and rebnried 1t is
a common occurrence, she said. 10 find
bones whenever there is any cNcdYa ting done
in the vicinity
The scene was visited yesterday by a
large number ofpersons. and The havoc play
ell by the cholera when the plague was here
was rehearsed.
