Serious Damage Done About the

City OF Virginia.
DULUTH, Mimi, June "A heavy
storm swept over the Mesaba range last
night, and while reports have been
meager they show that much damage
was done to buildings, mines and rail-
road tracks. The storm was most DOW
erful around Virginia. The roundhouse
of the Duluth & Mesaba. Railroad COM
pany at Virginia, wooden structure,
but very substantial one, was blown
down. Other railroad property there
Was damaged, but details are missing.
All trains were blocked last night, but
are running again today. The fact that
so strong a building as the round
house was blown down gives rise to
the fear that when more complete re-
ports are received the damage will be
much greater.

from Piles.

About one person in every four suners
from some form Of rectal disease. the
most common and annoying is itching
piles. indicated by warmth, slight mols-
ture. and intense, uncomfortable ftcninS
in the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some
simple ointment or salve. which some
times give temporary relief, but nothing
like a permanent cure can be expected
from such superficial treatment.
The only permanent cure Tor itching
piles yet discovered is the Pyramid Pie
cure. not only for itching piles, but for
every other form OF piles, blind, bleeding or
protrudng. The first application gives IN
slant relief, and the continued use Tor
a short time causes a permanent removal
Of the tumors or the small parasites
which cause the intense itching and dis

Many physicians for long time sup

WATERWAYS IN GOOD CONDITION.
The Department Yields n Handsome
Pront-Efect of Meters.

The Water Department Of the city Is In
excellent condition. The pumping machine
ry at the New pump-house and the steam
pump are in good condition. At the Ola
pump-house we are now at work replac-
ing two Of the old water-wheels Ohe
shafts of which were broken, and the
wheels dilapidated) with a new turbine
Wheel which will operate both No. l and
No. pumps. When completed, which Will
be i'm few days, both of these pumps
will be in first-class condition, and Will
be able to pump - per cent more water
than formerly. The remaining old-fashion-
ed wheels and pumps will receive over
hauling during the coming year.
EXPENDITURES AND RECEIPTS.
The total expenditures on the works
will amount to about $59,02i; included in
this is $4,000, spent for water-meters, ana
about 5000 for the new water-wheel,
shafting, gearing, &c, at tho Old pump
house. which is equivalent to renewing
Nos l and pumps. y balance, approx
mating $500, will be returned unexpend-
ed from the appropriation for the year
The receipts will approximate SlS6,COO
which does not include the value of the
water used by the city, estimated at &c.
900.
ADDITIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS.
We have laid during the year 1Sl2 lineal
feet of mains, made 1873 taps, and set III
new fre-hydrants. One thousand six hum
dred and fifty-two water-meters have
been purchased, and of these 762 set. In
addition 1913 meters have been purchased
by private parties and set by the CITY,
making a total Of $50 meters put in during
the year. All Of the meters furnished by
the city were placed on the lower supplies
% he frb results been
most gratifying. BY checking the waste
at the low points, the pressure has been
increased at the high points, varying
from 20 to 20 per cent, and water-takers,
who have had no water on their fixtures
for years during the daytime are now
getting it at all hours. Complaints. winch
were of daily occurrence, have ceased
The pumps are not SO heavily taxed 10
keep the reservoirs full, and a set can be
stoned at night and the machinery al
lowed to rest We have had no necessity
TO bring into use this year the steam
pump. which last year cost US I,2nSt
To no other cause can this great improve
ment. and to a great extent blessing be
attributed, checking the waste. and dis
covering and correcting numerous nX-
lures. which were leakng-but 10 the
water-meters. Numerous pipes We're
found broken under the ground, which
alone could have been found out by the
meter. This has been accomplished by an
outlay of $4,000. The only other plan or
giving water to the high points WAS TO
add to the pumps and lay larger mains,
which would have entailed an outlay or
$40 600.
In conclusion state that the city's
water-works are now in The best and
most satisfactory CONDITION that they
have been since have had charge Of the

IMPROVEMENT OF JAMES RIVER.
Statement of What Has Been ACCOM-
pIished During the Year.

The Improvement of James river, under
appropriations by Congress, begins at the
lower city line. 1t is under the direction
Of Aeutenant-Colonel Charles ]. Allen,
corps Of engineers, United States navy.
The project of the improvement, au-
thorized by Congress in 1854 is for
depth OF Is feet at full tide, in a channel
varying in width from 400 feet below city
Point 10 80 feet at richmond. The esti-
mated cost was about s., 10000. and near
ly one-third OF this has been appropri-
ated since that date.
Within the city limits the work for
several years has been done from appro-
pr.ations by Richmond city, and by d.
rcction Of the James River IMPROVEMENT
Committee and the City Engineer. AT
the close OF 1896 the government work
was in progress under contract with
T.. Sanford Ross, intended TO enlarge the
channel to 100 feet In width and Is feet in
depth at low tide. up 90 800 feet below the
city line. This was accomplished In July.

less than the required depth; but the
limits OF the contract I'm money had been
exceeded.
A new contract was made with MT.
Ross in November 20 complete the en-
largement mentioned and extend IT TO the
city line. with at least Is feet depth. ana
with such width as could be made under
the existing appropriation. The contract
also includes the construction and repair
OF certain wingdams within five miles Oh
the city. The contract is to be COM
pleted June 20, 1898.
The extension mentioned includes
Rockets Reef. and cannot be made 100
feet wide OF the enlarged depth with
means now provided.
The quantity OF excavation made since
November. 1896. has been 1900 cubic
yards. OF which 2000 were earth and COD
bic and 1900 soft and hard rock. In the
proportion Of p i-2 per cent OF the latter.
An this material was placed in revet-
ment on wingdams.
The available depths for navigation are
IS feet at mean low tide to about mile
below the city line. and the same depth
i'm n practicable channel-less than 100
feet wide in paces-to 800 feet below city
limits. The available depth at high tide
