A Notary Public.
ALAMEDA, CAL, May o. William
Holtz, notary public at the West End, has
had suit brought against him in the Su-
perior Court. The plaintiff is John Gooby,
and he seeks to recover the sum of $3.50 as
damages. The whole question turns on
the abandonment of homestead and the
signature thereto. Gooby says the certifi-
cate of acknowledgment is false, fraudu-
lent and forgery. He transferred his
equity in the homestead to his wife, from
whom he was estranged. Mrs. Gooby bor-
rowed $4,000 on the property on the
strength of the certificate of abandonme MT.
Her husband says he has spent $3.50 to
clear his title and asks for $4,000 additional
as damages.

OMAHA'S WATER WORKS.
How the Reynolds system of Clarifying
Water Has Been Put Into Use.

From the Providence Journal.
Much has been claimed for the Rey-
holds system of clarifying water, and
its introduction for the public works at
Omaha has, IL seems, proved a notable
success There is a chain OF seven ba-
sins with a capacity of 80, 900, 900 of gal
Ions, ample for supplying a population
of 100000, the cost of these basins be-
ing about $125,000. while the cost of
maintenance is small. and covers the
total outlay for filtration, so-called.
The water is pumped from the river
into the basin which is most elevated,
in which some 80 per cent. of the sedi-
ment is deposited; between that and
the next basin, whose elevation is few
feet lower. there is an inclined table, or
weir about is feet wide, over which
thin sheet of water constantly flows
from the higher to the lower basin.
This is technically called the aerate
process, as IL constantly exposes the
water to the air and frees IL from gases
and there are water reaches for the
gases, and there are weirs between all
the basins. BY the time the water
reaches the third basin IL is almost
pure and II runs into the seventh ba-
sin absolutely free from sediment or
impurity. 1t is also claimed for this
process that IL restores the natural
color of the water and destroys the
milky appearance which is given river
water by the limestone in the bed OF
the stream.

LAWLER In THE HOUSE
Incidents in the Public Career of the
Late ChicagOan.
ADMIRAL PORTER HIS FRIEND
His Earnestness Commanded Re-
spect and the Chicago Repre-
sentative Soon Became
Democratic Leader,
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post
The death of ex-Congressman Frank
Lawler of Chicago revives the recol-
lection OF many incidents of his public
service pending the 18th, 50th and 5lst
congresses, in all of which bodies he
occupied a prominent position. When
he first made his appearance at the
49th congress the disposition was man
ifest to hold him very cheaply, but he
soon made himself known and respect
ed for his uncouth but no less sensi-
bic earnestness. and 1t was not very
long before he had forged to the front
as leader on the democratic side and
his beard grew rapidly in the Jericho
OF the house, so that his tarry was not
as long as is usual with our parliament
tary tyros.
Ii Is not generally known, but IL is
nevertheless absolutely true that, by
his well-directed efforts, the rehabilita-
ton OF the American navy was given
It's first impetus. which resulted i'm
arousing congress to the unwelcome
fact that we had no navy, and that we
were at the absolute mercy of any sec
ond-rate power that might seek to en-
broil US in war. The matter came about
in the following way:
1t seems that when Frank LAWYER
was serving his apprenticeship at the
trade OF ship carpentering at Mound
City, Ill, during the late war, IL hap
pened that he made "A jackstaff with
his own hands and fitted II on the flag
ship of Admiral Porter. who superin-
tended the job and complimented the
young mechanic on the neatness of his
work. When Lawler came to congress
he remembered the incident and ex-
pressed the desire to a friend 10 meet
Admiral Porter and recall the incident
10 his recollection, feeling proud, nat
urally, that the boy who had toiled In
so humble an occupation should have
risen by his own efforts and fought his
way into congress. This friend who
was an intimate with Admiral Porter
escorted LAWYER to the admirars house
introduced him, with the result that a
strong friendship was at once formed
and the admiral. whose nose was then
badly out of joint at the navy depart
ment, became very confidential con-
cercerning naval matters.
COOPERATED WITH ADMIRAL,
PORTER.
Finally. LAWYER, who was president
of the Ship Caulkers' association OF
Chicago, expressed a desire TO serve
the admiral in any matters he desired
20 present TO congress. a proposition
with which the admiral Immediately
closed, and IL was agreed that I.awler
should introduce a resolution appro-
priating $4,000. 900 as a standing an
preparation wherewith TO rehabilltate
the American navy and construct new
ships. which was 10 be accompanied nv

in which he would portray in startling
language the effete condition OF our
navy and the pressing necessity for
