"OLD HICKORY PIPE LINE.
Workmen Are Laying Il New One from
Soldiers Home to the Capitol.

Workmen Are Laying a New One from
Soldiers Home to the Capitol.
For several weeks past theepring water
which has flowed through faucet in the
West Capitol Park wall, ON First street,
opposite the main entrance to the Bo-
tanicai Gardens, has been shut off, and
thirsty pedestrians have wondered why.
The cause of the stoppage is a gang of
workInen, who have been tearing up the
pipes which convey the water from a
spring in the Soldiers Home grounds to
the Capitol Park. The old pipe is being
replaced by new, and i'll u few days the
flow of clear, cool spring water will be
resumed.
There is an interesting story connected
with this line of pipe. 1t extends in a
perfectly straight line along North Capitol
street from the home TO the Capitol.
When .0ld Hickory Jackson was Presi-
dent he was fond OF the spring water, and
frequently sent his servants to the spring
TO get him a supply. Finally he suggested
that the water be brought within reach
of the Capitol by a wooden pipe.
An appropriation was secured about
siXty-six years ago and a wooden box
laid underground from the spring TO the
pool, which was formerly on the est
front of the Capitol II furnished water
TO Stake the thirst of Congressmen, Wis
itors and citizens for a number of years
until the two miles of wooden boxing
commenced To rot.
Then n large quantity of iron pipe was
brought over from Scotland I'm sailing
vessels and replaced the original under
ground waterway. Iron pipe WAS not
made in this country at that time.
1t is the old, rusty Scotch pipe which
is now being taken out OF the earth ana
replaced by the upto-datc American ar
ticle.

Joe Bateman made a demand upon the

That part of the District which lies ad.

the city seems TO be enjoying a boom Of

division was opened on Monday last. the

this subdivision is the fact that Messrs.
Allen W. Mallcry & Co. have offered to
loan lot purchasers money with which to

ANOTHER REBUKE TO THE MACHINE

Governor Morton gave the machine politicians
another bad turn yesterday when he made them
realize that the declaration in his message favor
ing economy In State expenditures was not
meant simply to tickle the ears Of taxpayers, but
was statement Of policy which Is TO be en-
forced His refusal to sign the bill appropriate
ing $4,000 for beginning storage dam In the
Gcncsee River for the benefit Of the millowners
OF Rochester and committing the State to the
future expenditure Of millions Of dollars more
for the same work Is quite as significant Of the
Governors independence and indicative Of his
business capacity and political sagacity as was
his veto Of that other measure so dear to the
heart Of the spOilsmen. the bill turning over the
Kings County paupers and insane TO the tender
merces Of Jacob Worth The Charities scheme,
pushed by all the would be bosses. big and little,
was intended to make a public office an instru-
mcnt Of private political warfare The Parsons
bill was a grab Of public money to serve private
business interests under the guisc OF public
work, and at the same time to create large
amount Of patronage for the benefit Of Western
New-York politicians. Against all such schemes
Of plumber Governor Morton has made a stand.
As has been before pointed out In these COL
umns. the proposed Genesee storage reservoir IL
not at present seriously needed for the canal
