THE SAME Old MARNING.

Just as the hot season has set in, and
everybody uses more water for domestic
purposes, not simply as a matter Of chance,
but OF necessity the warning is put forth
from headquarters that people must be
more careful in the consumption of the
fluid. lest they precipitate a water fam
inc. The same caution has been issued
every year pIetty regularly for the last
twenty years.
II would be amusing if it were not
SO awfully aggrayating. Houseboldes
have 10 pay water rents for faucets. bath
tubs. stret sprinklers and other ordinary
apppurfenances. If any one should adorn
his front yard with a fountain he has to
pay extra charge. But just as summer
1s upon us, when street sprinklers are al
most ''de rigeur." and fountains a season
able luxury, for which the fortunate
posEeesor has been appropriately assessed, !,
the fiat goes forth that these appliances
must be used sparingly.
Possibly the water supply, which is TO be
measured by height in the dam at the
Great Falls Reservoir, is at present more
limited by more rapid evaporation, on ac-
count Of the heat and the greater demands
made upon it. but it would seem more
reasonable If water in to be shut off any
where, to begin with the fountains in the
public parks, and with the incalculabIe
waste constantly going on in the govern
ment departments. II proper economy
was practiced in these places. there is
little doubt bit that the supply would be
nearly adequate for ordinary domesticness.
Try The plan and hurry up the dam.

prosperity. The non -committal. conduct
OF Vice President Stevenson, Commissioner
Morrison, aud other leading Democrats,
coupled with the warning OF the admin
istration that the appointment of free
silver advocates from that and other
States would not be considered, has cooled
the ardor OF the snverites in Illinois.
Other States also show falling off of
free silver enthusiasm, both in Republican
and Democratic ranks, and in view of the
outlook for a speedy resumption OF good
times it may be said that the silver cause
is on the wane.

EMILY FAITHFUL.

Emily Faithful's death leaves a distinct
void in the ranks OF those women who have
labored for the advancement OF their sex
She did not confine herself to talk or agita-
tion, but herself started industrial enter
prises in which she gave employment to
women and the results OF which were di-
rected 10 the amelioration of the condi-
tions surrounding them.
For nearly a half century she devoted
her best thought ana amplest energy 10
the cause she had espoused. Wherever, in
the pursuit OF the ends she aimed at, she
found work TO be done. she did it. No
woman ever came 10 her to be helped and
went away unaided. She had set her
ideal in the hig hest niche, and with
unfaltering step and answering faith she
worked up TO il.
Her name was the epitome OF her life.
She was faithful unto DEATH" and the
world is all the better for that she lived
aud labOred in it
