The subcommittee of the Committee
on Water, appointed at the last meeting
to consider the meter ordinance, met
yesterday morning at the water-works
Office, with Messrs. HARRISON, Ebel, and
Rountree present There was a lengthy
discussion as to the fixing of a minimum
rate, but no decision was reached. Super
intendent Boiling submitted a report, in
which the questions propounded at the
last meeting of the committee were an
swered. Mr.. Boiling estimates the in
come that would be derived from the de-
partment, If the leakage could be stop
ped. at $780, 900 per annum, on the present
basis of supply. Nearly half the water
pumped into the reservoirs, he said, was
lost, and he asserted that by the adop-
ton of the meter system there would be
less pumping, with less wear and tear
of machinery, and all the waste would
be cut off.
The Superintendent was instructed 20
prepare another statement. embodying
all the reports so far furnished, with
additional facts and figures. This state
ment will be considered by the sub-com-
mittee at meeting to be held at 1880
O'Clock on Tuesday night, and will be in
Guided in the report to be submitted 20
the general committee, which will meet
at O'clock.

Exit the Torpedo Boat.

Some fanciful notions are dispelled
by the experience gained in the naval
contests of the war. Prominent among
these is the dreaded torpedo boat. 1t
was entirely experimental, but it was
so lauded and applauded, it offered SO
much scope for the imagination, and
withal it seemed so feasible, that ap-
prehersior was Widespread that it was
the real antagonist before which the
leviathan hattleship would tremble in
helplessness. It's minuteness, it's speed
and it's tremendously destructive
armament promised to make it the
most dangerous competitor a cruiser or
battleship could meet. It's first test
came at Manila, when the two Spanish
torpedo boats rushed out to attack
Dewey's ships. They were quickly de-
stroyed by the rapid fire guns, but 1t
was felt that they had not had a
fair chance to test their capacity; and
that there were still great possibilities
of mischief in the craft.
Now comes the dash of Cervera from
Santiago. accompanied by the two tor
red1 boats, the Furor and the Pluton.
Here was their opportunity. Natural
ly the attention of our ships was CEN
tered on the fleeing cruisers. The tor
pedo boats might have been expected
to make that dash for our battleships
under cover Of the smoke and the pur-
suit of the larger vessels. And they
were both destroyed, and by what? The
Gloucester, Pierpont Morgan's con-
verted yacht, unarmored armed only
with rapid firing guns Under the
storm of shell sent by these guns these
dreaded craft went down before they
had a chance to discharge their tor
pedoes. The spell is broken, the dread
is vanished, the monster is found to be
nothing bug a scarecrow, the torpedo
boat joins the great army of the re-
:ected.

the elements of the celebration at Wildwood.
Three thousand people, perhaps more, went
out to the resort and enjoyed the unique ex-
perience of making the trip in something less
than halliday. Superintendent Smith. Of
the city railway, had made an effort that was
measurably successful, to run cars out on a
fifteen minutes schedule. In order to do it
he had to fill the woods with switch tenders.

manner.
There was nothing aside from the usual
attractions at Wildwood Lovely scenery,

his fortune by playing for the hundreds Of
young people who wanted to Dance The

fairly covered with young people to whom
violent exercise was physical necessity. The
toboggan slide was crowded all day, and the
joy that Is inherent in the roller coaster was
partaken of by some hundreds.
There was no programme for the arrange
ments for opening the resort under the new
management was only completed day or two
ago. Manager Barnett had everything fur
nished up for the day, but he could go no
further.
There was only one accident, and that con-

The following lines come to The Philistine
from Stillwater-from one of the "outs," by
the way. The spirit of the verse Is good
enough to make up for the few feet some OF
the lines are shy. 1t is printed with no in
tention of being personal with any OF the
readers of The Phiiistine:
mans a man with but a name
A mans man without fame
But when. dear reader, he's not man.
Is when unprincipled.
When standing in LIES coming tower,
Gazing Ger all earth below,
That place Is darkest at every hour
Where man doth stand unprincipled.
The flag of danger is waved in vain
AT men thus versed-unprincipled-
Who stop at naught in selfish gain
And running earthly innocence.
If man will think before sin
And ponder but a moment
His name may thus be saved to him
And principle undisgraced.

A Memorable Fourth.

There had been a feeling that this
year there should be an old-fash-
Toned Fourth of July. The sue
cess of Dewey at Manila. the bot
Ting" Of Cervera in Santiago, the gal
lantry of Hobson, the extraordinary
speed of Skaters advance. the nerve,
the pluck, the dash shown by our boys
in the advance on San Juan and Ell
Caney all made pulses beat faster,
and the old flag seem dearer. and
everyone determined to give the day
to the firecracker, the cannon. the an
vii. to anything that would make
noise. And then came The G o b e
with its astounding statement that
Cervera's fleet had been entirely de-
stroyed. Meager as the news was.
bald and bare of establishment or OF
detail, it was the one thing needed to
touch off all the enthusiasm that was
left at the bottom of American hearts
and set the pulses flying faster and
the nerves tingling with delighted pa
triotism.
Today we give the terse summary
of Admiral Sampson detailing the
present his fleet had made to the
American Fourth of July. Supple
menting it is the detailed story Of the
press association. 1t is simply as
founding. The second Spanish fleet is
completely destroyed. It's hulls lie on
the shores of Cuba, the magnificent
cruisers destroyed by fire, shell and
explosion. The daring courage of Ger
vera in driving his battleships out
into the teeth of the formidable navy
that awaited him is in keeping with
the bravery the Spaniards have shown
wherever we have met them. There
was the barest chance of success, and
he took it and lost. He is now the
prisoner of Hobson's commander, and
what is left of his crews are prisoners
of war.
All that was needed to complete the
day was a word from Shafter that he
had taken Santiago and it's defending
army. We would have had that
doubtless, had it not been for the re-
quest Of foreign consuls that the as
sault be delayed until the non-comba-
tantS could be removed. Shafter grant
ed the request although there has been
at no time for ten days a moment that
these non-combatants had not notice
of what was coming. But Cervera's
squadron is sufficient for one day. We
will hurrah for Shafter and Santiago
