SEARCH FOR CLEAN WATER.
EXPERT lie CONTE EXAMINES
THE WELL LOCALITY.
Pleased With What the Surveys
Reveal as to Prospects for a
Subterranean Supply.

L. j. lie Conte, the expert engineer
who has been employed to supervise
the test Of the east side wells water
supply, personally inspected the lay OF
the land southeast of the city yester-
day, in company with A. Meister and
D. A. Lindley of the wells sub-com-
mittee Of the Citizens General Water
Committee.
The party drove first to the Sanborn
wells east of this city, thence to Brigh-
ton, and out as far as F'lorin, and then
back to the Brooke wells, and finally
to those sunk by the Chamber of Com
merce when that organization made its
pumping test.
The drive was made for the purpose
Of enabling Mr.. lie Conte to get the lay
of the land, so as to intelligently go
about the work cut out for him. He
seemed greatly pleased by what he
saw, and frankly stated his belief,
based on observation and report, that
the flow Of water was from the noun
tains, and that the source is not the
American River.
The work of finishing the surveys that
was begun Saturday with view TO as
certaining the levels of the land and the
probable direction of the flow of water,
will be resumed this morning and it is
proposed to lose no time in completing
the preliminaries, in order that an act
ual pumping test may be made at the
earliest possible date.
In conversation Mr.. LIE Conte was
told Of the statement made by objectoIs s
to the we'll system, that after a large
amount of water had been pumped out
of well the water would become bad,
through the filtering of mineral matter
through the surrounding earth into the
water. He laughed at the idea.
Why" said he, ground water is like
lake. It is STILL If you should dig
ditch at one end of a stagnant pond
that would let water run out, and
should let the fresh water run in, it
would soon run out the stagnant water
and fill the pond with fresh. clear
water.
"In ground water supply the min
eral salts have been gathering there
for years, from percolation through the
ground. When the pump is put to
work, it begins TO pump out the water
and the salts contained in it, and fresh
water begins to take its place. The
longer you pump the better the water
will be. That is the history of all wells
Some time ago a well was bored for
the town of Alvarado, Alameda County,
but the quality of the water that first
came from it did not suit, and the city
turned the we'll over to q manufacture
| ing corporation which said what ii
wanted was plenty of water, and that
it did not care for the quality. 1t used
a large amount of water, and as the
pumping continued the water became
better and better. When the city
found out that fact, 1t made proposals
| to get the well back"
| Mr.. LIE Conte returned to Oakland
last evening, but will shortly make an
| other visit to Sacramento.

felt that he had been left almost alone
among the founders.
Grove l.. Johnson said, in part:
have felt that of late years | have not
done my duty to the order although \
was once an officer I thought the no.
tice to speak was short, but / decided
to come here anyhow and pay what
tribute 1 can to the departed dead"
The speaker believed the new GUS
tom of memorial services was good
one, for it would bring the members
closer together each year. He said 1t
was a question whether people should
sorrow or rejoice when those who have
fought the good fight are called to the
better world. He thought we should
take lessons from the lives of others,
avoid their errors emulate their vlr-
tues. If a man is a good Red Man ne
thought God would ask him no ques-
ton concerning dogma or creed. he
thought memorial services should also
teach members to avoid pickering,
strifes and hard words.
Mr. Johnson asked to hear from Past
Great Sachem Charles E. Spencer, who
has but recently passed through a siege
of illness. He paid a great compliment
to Mr.. Spencer for his great interest in
the order
Mr.. Spencer thanked Mr.. Johnson,
and said he was pleased to say that
the principles of the order had often
comforted him, even in the great soli-
tudes of the land of the midnight sun.
John Domingos, Past Sachem of Red
Jacket Tribe, was the last speaker. He
paid high tribute to the order and at
the conclusion of his speech the Red
Men sang America" and adjourned.

LODGE OF SORROW.
Improved Red Mems Memorial
Services for Their Dead.

The Improved Red Men of Sacra-
mento and the council of the Daughters
of Pocahontas met in joint session at
their wigwam on Tenth street last
night, as a lodge of sorrow.
The meeting was in response to a
call of the Great Council which has
decreed that the last Sunday in Octo-
Der hereafter shall be observed as mem
orial day.
There was an opening prayer by Past
Sachem George w. Whitlock, after
which there were speeches by various
members Of the tribes.
Mr.. katzenstein said the memorial
addresses and ceremonies were new
features, but the tribe, desiring to be
prompt and loyal was glad to respond
1t struck the speaker that the time was
apropos, as this month is the anniver-
sary Of the order in the State. The
first tribe, of which VIM. II. Mills was
an early Sachem, was organized in San
Francisco in 1868

and this great mortality and change of
time.
''If there be higher aim for human
ity than those which the Red Men pro-
vide, I do not know it. Our work is
right up with that of the church. We
look after the families of the depart
ed. We comfort the sick; we put flour
in the empty barrel
A pathetic part of the speech was
Mr.. Katzenstein's account Of the first
Red Mems funeral in Sacramento-that
Of Tom Cummings, who died of eonfiu-
ent smallpox.
Il had no family" he said, "and I
went with one other to the cemetery
and read the funeral services at that
lonely grave"
]. P. Counts was the next speaker,
and he paid a glowing tribute to the
work of the order. I'm all the phases
of sorrow we have played our part
WE'LL" he said. I'VE have helped the
sick, buried the dead, cheered the af-
f1icted."
The speaker said he felt deep sor-
row over the dead, and he wished he
had an eloquent tongue to portray their
virtues. Many young and bright men
of the order had been taken and he
