trustworthy information Just received
hero by the correspondent Of the Asso-
cIatcd Press, the insurgents have been
making rapid progress through the
province Of Santa Clara since the de-
tent Of Colonel Egua and Iguara.
From the fact that so many insur-
gent leaders have concentrated their
forces, It Is believed that Gomez and
Macco have determined to risk a Pitch
cd buttlo with the Spanish troops.
This concentration Of the insurgent
forces, however. is exactly what Gen-
cral Campos Is said to have been pray-
ing for
expected hero towards the end OF the
month. and the beginning OF January,
the Spanish government Is already
completing the work OF dispatching
10000 more troops to Cuba.

BREEDING REAL TERRAP|N
Fish Commissioner Emeric
Ranches Genuine Dia-
mOnd-BaCkS.
Turtles That Cost One Dollar Per
Inch and $165 Per Dozen In
New York.

Within very few years, if Fish Com
missioner Emerics calculations do not
prove erroneous. the epicures of this coast
will be able to eat genuine diamond back
terrapin, an ENJOYMENT from which all but
the wealthiest gourmets of the country are
now debarred on account of the cost, at a
reasonable expense.
1t has always been Mr.. Emeric's idea
that the expensive amphibians could be
made to flourish on this coast, and during
the course OF recent visit to tie East he
made up his mind to experiment with
them on his ranch at San Pablo.
The result is that the marsh near his
place is already well tenanted with the
diamond backs, and Mr.. Emeric declares
that it is only question of time until they
spread to all parts Of the bay and event
ually to every watercourse containing salt
water on the coast.
The experiment cost the Commissioner
several hundred dollars, but he is satisfied
with the outlay provided the turtles
flourish.
''Terrapin," to the average Californian
who has never eaten anything but the
California product, has not the ring of
gold that is suggested to the Eastern
epicure's mind in conjunction with the
name. In California, terrapin, such as
they are, can be bought for from 50 so to
$3.50 per dozen. In the East even the
smallest specimens sent to the markets
cost more than that apiece. and terrapin
has become luxury in which few can in
dulge more than once year. Mr.. Emeric
tells an amusing story of his experiences
while purchasing his original stock of dia-
mond-backs.
81 had made up my mind to buy q
stock of the black fellows" he said yester-
day. sand strolled into New York mar
ket to purchase them. l stopped at the
fist stall came to and picked out couple
of dozen average-sized specimens and told
the man to put them aside for me. Just

for water supply and also has City water
niped through the hnnse

Ior wafer supply ana also mas City water
piped through the house.
Some time ago, through some accident
to the machinery. the manager was com
PEELED to turn on the City water and his
bills ran from $50 to $40 per day while the
change lasted. Aside from the looks and
taste OF the water showing that it is pure
and wholesome it is proven to be good
water by its action on the boilers.
Usually deposit that requires q great
deal OF work to remove is left in the tubes,
but with our arteslan water the deposit is
not near so noticeable, and the boilers
need far less cleaning than if supplied with
ordinary water.
II believe that the character of artesian
water in different parts of the town varies,
that of the lower portions being harder
than where it is drawn from wells bored
on the higher levels.
II believe that we have IN our well an
inexhaustible supply, and that if the
proper localities are chosen enough can be
procured to supply the whole City"
In, the Croker building the great num-
Der of offices and the great elevators are
supplied with artesian water pumped from
a we'll $50 feet deep on the Market-street
side. Twenty-Five thousand gallons per
day are required, and this amount the well
yields without any perceptible effect on its
supply.
The tube was put down three years ago,
and has never given signs of going dry.
The well saves the owners 5000 to 500 per
month.
The Palace Hotel and Lick House only
use the water for laundry and cleaning
purposes, Spring Valley water that has
been run through filters being used for
drinking and culinary purpose. Were
artesian water used entirely, the saving to
the Palace would be $1,000 to $1,000 per
month, or the present rates. The Lick
would save $500 to 500.
