| survey showing that the elevation of the
surrounding country is $50 feet, or about
| 125 feet higher than that on which the
Howard reservoir is located. From this
high service, water cannot only, at ex-
pense but piping, be furnished to the high
est building at present in. this city, but
could be furnished to the highest room of a
ten-story building constructed on the top of
the national Capitol.
THE high service would be such that
| there would be no necessity for the present
steam fire engines of the city, and they
could be set aside as they have in many
cities so fortunate as to have high service.
So. also. could the various pumping stations
in the District, as the service of water from
the mains would throw a stream higher
than the Capitol.
Will Not Cost the District Anything.
"Of the other advantages 1t is unneces-
sary in this memorial to speak. but they are
numerous. But from business standpoint
1t may be stated that the use of this water
will not cost the District of Columbia or
United States one cent. The land through
which these sources run will be decided free
forever to the United States and the only
expense attending the project will be TO i'm
pound and convey by pipes conduits the
same to this city. whether first to the city
MAINS so as to get the benefit of the pres
sure or to the Howard reservoir The sur
rounding lands are situated that the only
expense In impounding will be the necessary
dams, the rock sides being already there.
There is a supply of rock on the ground to
build the dams at a comparatively small ex-
pense.
while the memorialists are confident of
the facts set forth above. the United States
or authorities of the District of Columbia
have no information-official jnforma ton
on the subject. 1t is for this reason that the
memorialists ask that the Secretary of War
be authorized to have the necessary exam
tnation made, as is provided for in The
amendment referred to. Legislation further
than this will not be asked until a full in
vestigation has been had.
Only Six or Seven Miles.
I'm conclusion. they beg to say that they
are impressed with the belief that the Dis
! trict needs an increased supply Of water
They know that the supply is there and that
to get 1t 1t will only cost the price of the
pipes to convey 1t. Possibly the best loca-
ton to get the water will be IN the i'm
mediate locality Of the Burnt Mills, which,
as will be observed from the map made a
part Of this memorial, lies due north OF the
Capitol building, about seven miles as the
crow dtes or about six miles from the How
ard reservoir.
Still the whole matter Of location and
other details will have to be decided upon by
the engineers. The memorialists are per-
fectly willing to abide by their report

Supply Needed.

| proper, ana Will reduce the pressure In

Additional Supply Needed.
whether this is so or not. 1t is a gen
orally recognized fact that an additional
supply is needed. and that it's specially
desirable that supply can be secured
from some elevated section Of the sur
rounding country. so that by its own pres
sure or elevated source the highest rooms
In the highest buildings can be literally
supplied. At present in the summer time it
is we'll known that the supply is so uncer-
tain and ms efficient that for weeks at a
time water cannot be had above the sec
ond stories Of many houses. Even to do
his the use Of street hose has to be re-
duced to the minimum, and the supply en-
tirely cut Off from the public and private
fountains.
Your memor'alists respectfully submit
that the northwest branch of the Potomac
and Sligo creek run through Montgomery
county, Nd, at less than one-half of the
distance from this city than the present
source Of supply at the Great Falls of the
Potomac. The source of the northwest
branch of the Potomac is the thousand Of
springs In tho neighborhood Of Sandy
Springs, Md 1t is pure water, and has
always been, as the numerous analyses
have abundantly shown. The same can be
said of the Sligo branch. the supply of
which is about one-fourth as large as the
northwest branch. Both of these supplies
are 81 located tDal Iney are specially free
from pollution in any form; neither are
they likely to be polluted in the future.
Once Considered by Gen. Mefxs.
when making his original investigations
in 1852 for the source of a water supply for
this city. Gen. Meigs for a time seriously
considered using Rock creek OF course,
the nearness of the source was a strong ar
grment for its adoption. He had the water
Of Rock creek measured and estimated
that it could be relied upon to furnish a
supply in winter and spring Of 10 49, 300
gallons, but liable in the heat OF the sum
mer to be diminished to 9.S6O.OOO gallons
in every twenty-four hours
competent engineers, who have made
similar examinations of the two sources of
supply referred to in this memorial have
estimated that they can be depended upon
to supply about 100000 gallons of water
In each day, or about one-fourth as much
as is needed per day. This one-fourth add
ed to the present supply will be sufficient
to guarantee a full supply for the next
fifty years.

nectfon with this proposed supply Is the

L OW il tranSpires that the sYeeCh madt
~ by Mr. Morse i few days since IN the
House, in which lie referred t. the
Krcglo murder as having beeu the
direct result OF bad whisky, was the
outcome of set-up JOB rather than d mo
mentary Inspiration.
The question under discussion az the time
was bill providing for the bOttling OF
liquor in bond in order o more effect ualiy
guard against authorizations. While the
debate was getting under way couple cf
members strOlled over 20 Mr.. Morsc's
seat and called his attention to the fact
that a liquor hill was under consideration,
said il was a most ncfariuus measure ana
told him there was the chance of his life
to get in some telling blows against the
demon rum.
Accordingly Mr. Morse acted on the sug
gestion aud made a general speech, not IN
opposition to the pending bill so much, as a
sweeping attack upon hqGOr frink king and
its effects and the direfui Consequences
that often followed its use. After he sat
down some Of those interested in the bill

agely assailed a measure that was alto
gether in the nature Of a safeguard 10 those
who used liquors for any purpose, TO The
intent that il hey must use il they would
get nothing but the pure article, AID not

Mr. Morse then realized that he had
been the victim of a joke, while the perpe-
traitors thereof were out in the corridor
laughing themselves to death.

WHERE 1T ORIGINATED.
Wife Assumed the Husbands Name
Centuries Ago

The practice of the wife assuming the
husbands name at marriage according
to Dr. Brewer, originated from Roman
custom, and became the common custom
after the Roman occupation. Thus, julia
and 0ctavia, married TO Pompey and
Cicero, were called by the Romans Julia
of Pompey. Octayia OF Cicero, and in later
times married women in most European
countries signed their names in the same
manner, but omitted the of
Against this view it may be mentioned
that during the sixteenth, and even u [ the
beginning of the seventeenth century, the
usage seems doubtful, since we find Catha-
rine Parr SO signing herself after she had
been twice married, and we always hear
OF Lady Jayne Grey not Dudley, Ara
bella Stuart mot SEYMOUR, etc.
Some persons think that the custom origi-
mated from the Scriptural teaching that
husband and wife are one. This was the
rule as far back as Eraeton tdied 1868,
and it was decided in the case of Bon vs.
Smith, i'll the reign of Elizabeth, that a
woman by marriage loses her former name
and legally receives the name OF her hus
band. Altogether, the custom is involved
IN much obscurity

TEACHING CHILDREN ECONOMY

TEACHING CHILDREN ECONOMY.
One OF the grammar school principals of
New York has hit upon a novel and unique
scheme to implant ideas OF economy in the
children frequenting the public schools and
at the same time enable them 10 give
those ideas practical expression. There
are 100 pupils in the school over which
he presiGes, and he estimates that they
spend from $50 TO $50 a day in the candy
and cake shops near the school building.
His object is to get them TO save this
money, and 10 this end he proposes the
establishment near every school Of a desk
in some shop where a clerk shall be in
attendance an hour each in the morning
and evening TO receive such small de-
posts the children may be induced to
make These deposits are to be reported
every day to headquarters and deposited
in savings bank in the respective pupils
uames, the whole arrangement to be un-
der the supervision of the State banking
department. The principal says: "Our
savings banks will teach the children to
be economical, and teaching them to be
economical is only a phase Of instruction
10 selfgovernment, and self government is
the inspiration of Americanism."
If this scheme has the support of the
parents it Will be of benefit to the chill
dren in more ways than one. 1t is not
10 be expected Of course, nor would i be
desirable to create or develop i'll the chill
dren an iDordinate love for money, or
make them prudent beyond their years.
Children ought 10 be kept childike as
long as possible, but this is not iDcon-
sistent with The inculcatiuD Of cconom-
ical ideas. Boys or girls may retain all
of a child's fcmdncsS for candies and toys
and yet practice in a reasonable degree
the virtue OF saving. By accommodating 4

to do charity without asking their parents
for the means, and CD birthday Us and at

that their selfdenial and economy make

is q kind OF sclf-reliancc which II is most
desirable to cultivate in the young. Self
