The Salvation Of the Race.

We find the following gem going
the rounds Of the press, without
credit; Remember this young man.
Be careful what you say about a
woman's character. Think how
many years she has been building it,
OF the tolls and priyations endured, of
wounds received, and let no suspic-
cion follow her actions. The purity
of the women is the salvation of the
race, the hope OF greatness and the
redemption Of man. Whip out her
purity and the man sinks beneath
the wave Of despair, without star
TO guide his life into the channel OF
safety. Think then before you speak
and remember5that any hog can root
up the faireet flower that ever grew;

For long time astronomers have
detected indentations and irregulari-

says, "that the surface of this planet
is quite as uneven as that of the earth

and that the most elevated SUBMITS

nearly twice as great as that Of the
earth, and her light is 80 intensely
vivid that it casts shadow on the
earth, her mountains and valleys are,
nevertheless, visible in the telescope,
that the recent observation at Manora
Observatory disclosed the outline of a
real indentation in her surface.

DRAINAGE OF PETALUMA,
Plans for Improving 1t Now
Under Consideration by
the State.
A Canal to Be Constructed That
VIII Prevent the Winter
OverfloWS.

PETALUMA, CAL, July 19.-There was
an important meeting at the City Hall to
night of prominent citizens and City Trus-
tees, in conjunction with e. E. Leahy,
State Commissioner of Public Works, and
corps of State engineers who are survey
ing Petaluma Greek, with view of max
ing plans for improving it, so that the
large amount of drainage water in winter
can be carried off, instead OF overfowing
the streets of East PetaIuma.
The engineers have in mind two plans,
one of which they will adopt after all the
survey work is done and the matter con-
sidered scientifically.
One plan is to make a canal of Baylis
street, beginning where it meets the creek
south of Washington street, up to and
meeting the creek near the trestle bridge
on an almost straight line. This would
mean an 1900 foot canal crossing Washing
ton street, and requiring a new draw
bridge.
a straight canal at the Washington-street
bridge up TO Starke's Park.
Either canal would keep itself clean of
slickens. In the former case a large part
of the old water front would be done away
with, for the creek running through the
land there would gradually fill up. This
land joins the business portion of town, SO
it would soon be very valuable. Petaluma
would then, have straight. front OF
business portion and an improvement
which would be permanent.
The meeting was of great benefit to the
engineers, as they obtained much infor-
nation from the citizens which will be
valuable in their work.
