UNDERoRoUND STREAMS.
Reasons for BsisivinE They Exist All
Through the Arid west


Through the Arid west
There are facts which leave us little
room for doubt that the great volume
Of moving water in the arid West is
not embraced by the banks OF its
streams, but that II exists beneath the
surface OF the earth. that these sub
surface reservoirs must first be nlled
before the exterior plane will shed wa.
ter. and that the fluid which flows to
waste is the surplus which will not
infiltrate into the porous substance be-
meath. says Lippincott's. Throughout
the whole country is underlaid with
immense strata OF rock whose mass is
sufficiently dense TO resist the super
imposed pressure yet whose structure
is so cellular as TO permit the ready
passage OF water through its aggregate.
These rocks are sedimentary and be-
long mostly to the sandstones. They
are never metamorphic. such as granite
OF the schis;s, and rarely are they
limestone. This latter class OF rock
may occasionally permit the fiow Of
water through its body because of hs-
sures which allow the fuld to run In
channels or veins; and sometimes the
rock substances become 80 dissolved
by water that great subterranean cav
erns are formed. as is the case In Ken
lucky; but generally limestone, as a
water-bearing rock, is unreliable. even
where assures exist II the movement
Of the water is obstructed II will de-
posit ealoareous matter, and so All the
tubes and close them.

In Egypt and the Soudan. In India

The futility of endeavoriag to anti
cipate the progress OF ages is well
shown in the case of the Church Of ST.
Marie Woolnoth. situated in the heart
OF London. According to the terms of
the original grant OF this tract of land,
It was forever TO remain the site OF a
church. but as II 8 n the heart OF
the city, and particularly desirable
location for one of the stations OF the
Metropolitan railway. 1t was decided,
while 1t was necessary not to disturb
the church, a station should be built
directly underneath II in the cellar. A
spacious vault has been constructed
underneath the church for the accom-
mediation of the railway tracks, the
ceiling being supported by steel arches
and massive iron pillars. Stairways
and elevators lead up on each side Of
the church.

rwo CONDUCTORS ON A TRAIN
baltimore q Ohio Railroad Adopts a
system to Prevent Accidents.

baltimore q Ohio Railroad Adopts n
system to Prevent Accidents.
From the New York Tribune. Last
February the receivers of the Balti-
more q Ohio Railroad Company de-
cided to adopt the double-conductor
system for all excursion trains in or
der to reduce to a minimum the
chances of an accident. To one con-
ductor under this plan is given entire
charge of the running of the train,
while the other attends to the tickets
and the comfort OF the passengers. The
experiment proved successful during
the travel to and from the inaugura-
tion of President Mckinley, but dur
ing the last two or three months 1t has
been thoroughly demonstrated that its
adoption was wise. From Sept. 4 TO
Nov. 2S, inclusive. the Baltimore &
Ohio handled $4,000 people on Sunday
excursions between Philadelphia, Bal
timore, Washington and Atlantic City,
and, owing to the care taken in hand
ling the trains. not a single passenger
was killed or injured. Fourteen thou
sand OF this number were handled on
Sept. 4.

SPAIN AND THE CARLIsr CAUSE

The Struggle That Is Going on at
Present.
Before 1898 Spain was one Of the
great powers. Between 1888 and 1876
there were actually thirty-eight rebel
lions, changes OF government and coup
d'etat, says the Fortnightly Review.
Since 1888 Spain has declined in the
scale Of nations and now ranks as lit
tie more than a third-rate power. a
glorious tribute, indeed, TO the wisdom
OF interfering with the settled success
sion. In order to understand the pres
ent condition of-Spain we have only 10
read the daily papers. On the one
hand, in Madrid, we see a titular SOW
ereign struggling Intellectually with an
empty treasury TO staye off bankrupt
cy making futile attempts with a dis
credited army to subdue his rebellious
colonies and relying upon martial law
TO crush civil anarchy, which. be It re-
membered. is ever the result OF bad
government, incompetent and tyran-
nical police and especially of corrupt
finance and OF taxation pressing too
heavily on the class least able to bear
It. On the other hand, In Venice, we
see the king waiting until the moment
shall arrive for him to make his final
essay to save his country from distress
with which the queen regent has proved
herself unable to cope.

Causes the Death of MT. c. T.
 Mitchell.

MT. c. T. Mitchell, who has for the past year been in the employ of A. Laxton, the butcher on Sixth ave nue, took an overdose of laudanum last night and died from It's effects.
 MT. Mitchell has for years been subject to cramps, for which he would take dose of laudanum. It generally vas sure cure. and when ever Mir. Mitchell was attacked by these cramps, he would be relieved by the deadly fluid. Last night he was attacked by the cramps and took a dose of laudanum. This did not ease the pain, and he took an- other dose, which deadened the pain. He soon afterwards fell asleep, and it was the sleep of death, from which he never awakened.
 The deceased was 34 years of age and was we'll and favorably known. He leaves a father, step- other, two brothers and sister to mourn his death, to whom the sympathy of their friends is extended in their sad bereavement.
 The funeral will take place from the family residence, on the Warren road, this afternoon at o'clock.

Aguinaldo Has a Rival.

New YORK, Sept. 10 dispatch
to the Herald from Manila says:
The attitude OF the Philippines in
surgent leaders is daily becoming
more dangerous. So open is their op-
posiUlon to the American authorities
that the situation is strained aud
reconciliation may be dtiicult.
What makes the situation more
troublesome Is the undisguised rivalry
between the followers of General
Aguinaldo, the Eelf-proclaimed dicta
tor, and General Pillar, who coYets the
honor which Aguinaldo has ac Quired,
General Pllo Pillar is in command Of
the lnsurgeLt troops stationed sout h
OF Manila, He uses them in way
that is most annoying 10 Agulnaldo,
and at the same time makes every ef
fort TO show his utter disregard OF the
American ofiicials His forces con-
tlnue 10 patrol the city, encouraging
lawlessness la every direction.
Aguinaldo's course is no less annoy
ing. He no longer attempts TO con-
ceal his hostility TO the officials who
represent the United States, aud yes
terday issued an order prohibiting his
soldiers from entering ,he American
lines. This course was probably
deemed necessary In order 20 prevent
them from becoming so we'll desposed
toward Americans as TO destroy his
power by repudiating his leadership.
The attitude OF the rival leaders
cannot fall Ia the end To lnjure the
cause OF the Philippine independence.
Certainly IL will prevent the presenta.
tlon OF a strong case before the peace
commission in behalf OF the FiliplnCs
