MIR. II. T. Warner Bears Testimony to tho
Efficiency of the Water Depsrtment.


Il. Tatnall Warner in an interview
Friday said he was opposed to making
any change in the present management
of the Water Department, and pointed
to the record Of the department as its
justification. When William 4. Porter
took charge Of tho department about
Is years ago, its pumping facilities
were in poor condition, including a
Cornish "bull" pump, turbine wheel
and Worthington, and the whole
outfit was so precarious that the water
supply was in danger of being shut off
by breaks. Today everything is in
good shape. The water rent is cheaper
than that of any city of similar size in
the country.
"If the water rates were reduced,
the city would have to raise other
taxes" said Mr.. Warner, 'or manage
the city more economically than it is
being managed today"

my finish. One of the cleverest florists
Boston ever had was ruined years ago by
just such an accident, though the we'd
ding at which it happened turned out
happily enough for all the parties inter-

family of four children, and nothing has

Says His Colleague, Senator

REASON FOR so THINKING
Senate Is Not Bound by Its Precedents
--Quay Was Defeated Through
Treachery.

Philadelphia, Apri, 22.-United States
Senator Boise Penrose said I'M regard to
the appointment of Senator Quay:
'The appointment of Senator Quay by
the governor is the logical result of the
situation. Mr.. Quay's leadership in the
republican party and his candidacy for
re-election FOR senator were made issues
IN the ~gubernatorial campaign Of last
fan by the democratic party and that
faction of the republican party which on
election day generally turned in for the
democratic candidate. The republican
candidate for governor after a campaign
of unparalleled Misrepresentation and
vilification, was elected by a great
plurality and Mr.. Quay's candidacy-this
Issue having been forced by the opposi-
tion-was indirectly sustained by the
people of the state. Senator Quay having
been the choice of the party as evidence
the November election and in the sena-
torial caucus and his failure to be elected,
was the result of treason and perfidy to
the party by a boiling minority and the
apprehension felt by some that the state
might suffer by only being represented
by one senator, is the cause of the APP
poIntAnent.
THE governor would not have made
the appointment had he not been con-
WINGED of his authority by law and pre-
ceuent. The presidents on this point in
the senate have been somewhat conflict
ing. The early presidents are all in IA
vor of this power, while a few of the later
precedents have apparently been against
dt. In the senate some of the ablest law
yers in the body are divided on the ques-
ton. AS a matter of fact the senate, not
being a judicial body, is avowedly not
bound by it's precedents. Cases of this
character in the past have been decided
largely on personal grounds and in COM
pliance with the wishes and e%xigencies of
the party in the majority. Mr.. Quay has
remarkable personal strength with sena-
tors in both parties and the senate is re-
publican by a considerable majority. The
democrats in the senate are grateful to
Mr.. Quay for his aid in defeating the
force bill, while the republicans will be
glad to strengthen their majority in the

THE MINE MULE.

Pittsburg News: Jim Smiley was in
Pittsburg yesterday. Jim will be re-
membered as a man who has studied the.
character and i~diosyncrasies of the coal
mine. Jim believes an old mine mule
has more than horse sense, and in some
cases is gifted with second sight. jim
drove a white mule for Captain w. b.
Rodgers of the Tide Coal company, that.
had this faculty, and owing to his exer-'
else of it Jim is able to relate some Of
his wonderful experiences with mine
mules. The mule, Jim says, has scrip
tural authority for seeing things that
his drivers cannot see, and cites the story
of Balaam and the mule ancestor in cor
roboration of his theory.
The particular mule that Captain
Rodgers owned was noted for his light
heeled proclivities and his general objec-
ton to going the way he was directed.
One morning Jim Smiley was taking a
trip of cars into a cross entry that had
some of the pillars ''ribbed." This slightly
weakened the roof, and although timbers
had been put in to support the roof it
had begun to "creep." jim shouted a few
''cuss'' words at the mule, and calling
him by an opprobrious name invited him
to "gwan." He started off in good style
until the cross entry was reached. Here
he stopped. Jim insisted that the mule
proceed. The mule switched his tail.
Jim applied his blacksnake whip, which
he unwound from his shoulders for the
purpose.
Force and persuasion we're unavailing.
| Jim got behind the mine car and pushed
it against the mule. The animal ED
| back. jim pushed harder, and the mule
toppled over into the car. Jim could not
get the mule out of the car, and was
forced to get another mule and pull the
wise mule to the side track, where it was
high enough to jump him out of the pit
car.
Jim took the borrowed mule and went
back into the cross entry, and when he
arrived at the point where the wise mule
had stopped he found that a fall Of roof
had occurred in his absence completely
closing the entry. Had Jim succeeded in
driving the mule beyond the place of the
"hold-up'' both he and the mule would
have been entombed. Jim a no man
knows as much as a pit mule, and they
don't talk so much, either. ~

en- lave no right to tamper with owe or
matrimony. It is best for themselves and
best for the human race that they should
not. 1t is not a hard matter for men and
women to preserve their health If they
wish. 1t is far from impossible for them
to restore it after it has been lost. That
being the case, the modern Cupid is right
in looking with disfavor upon matrimonial
matches between sick men and unhealthy
worNen. Ill-health in a woman is generally
the result of some weakness or disorder of
the distinctly feminine organism that is
slowly sapping her vitality. At first, a
little pain and slight indispositions which
seem to her quite unimportant. They grow
steadily worse until she suffers all the time
from burning and dragging sensations, and
occasionally has to take to her bed. Fin
ally they completely unfit her for wifehood
and motherhood. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is an unfailing remedy for all
ments of this kind. 1t acts directly on the
delicate and important organs concerned
in maternity and makes them we'll and
strong. 1t transforms weak, sickly, nerv-
Gus invalids into healthy, happy wives and
mothers. Medicine dealers sell it. Nc hon
