THE WATER DEPARTMENT IN 1850,

Auuilln Pritchard, said cx-COunoilmAn
Geo W. Dorsey In 1850. ran the water
works and looked after its receipts from
citizens. 1t was then under the City Coun.
oil and was more than sslf-supporting, al.
ways turning quite snug sum into
Council. The bonded debt of the city was
! then about three hundred and flfty thous.
and dollars and the number OF morocco
and other places OF industry were not as
numerous Us they are to-day in our city:
The water department was then rs we'll
and more economical managed than 1t is
to-day. In comparison to the revenue de-
rived from 1t, it cost the tax payers less
than at the present time. This fact has
been recalled to the writer's mind by the
OFFERING of the new city charter to place
the control of the city departments back
again In the hands Of the people.
BY the ADOPTION of the new city charter
the present commissions woul0 be
abolished and the Mayor with the heads
Of the several departments almost similar
to the board that controls the municipal
affairs of PHILADELPHIA would tako charge.
The idea being when the new charter was
drawn up to make 1t non-partisan In its
organization. 1t remains to BIO seen what
the Democratic Legislature thinks Of the
proposed change. If the Democratic
party is likely to be in the minority in its
grasp on the public, then the charter
will not pass, you can rest assured VI
that Tho Democratic politicians arc not
looking for anything in managing our
municipal affairs that will give the Ro-
publican party any thing like "a hold upon

TWO GREAT SHIPS LAUNCHED.
Kentucky and kearsage Glide Into
the Water ut Newport News.

Newport News. Va, March 25.-Fully
10000 men, women and children today
witnessed the launching of the mammoth
United States battleships Kentucky and
Kearsarge, the latst additions to our
navy. The Kentucky was the first 10 re.
ceive her baptism. When the army OF
workers knocked the last shores from the
cradle of the vessel, Miss Christine Brad
ley, daughter OF the governor of the Blue
Grass state, grasped the cut glass bottle
of water, wrapped in miniature
American flag, and crashing it upon the
bow of the big battleship, exclaimed, ain
the name of the United States, | now
christen thee Kentucky" The vessel sped
gracefully down the CREASED ways, max
ing one of the prettiest launchings even
witnessed at the yards of the Newport
News Ship Building Company.
The most striking feature of the big
boats is the double-storied tunet which
is designed to contain the greatest gum
a1oat.
Another prominent feature of the arma
ment of the Kentucky and Kearsarge i
their powerful broadside batteries OF j
five-ineh rapid firing guns. These gun
are arranged within a central battery OF
the main deck between the tnrrets, eacl
of them firing through an arch of 80 de
grees Though the shell for the five-incl
guns only weighs so pounds as compared
with $50 pounds for the shell of the eight
inch guns, the rapidity of the former
so great, each belching forth six shot
per minute, that three times the weigh
in metal can be thrown by the smalle
guns in given time.
The protection of the hull consists Q
an armor belt seven and one-half fee
wide at the water line.
