city.
The only territory not supplied with
water by these four systems is a farm
ing district sparsely populated, and pro-
vided with an ample supply from pri-
waite wolls.
The total population of the Borough
of Richmond is about II GOO.
John Il. Freeman, in his report on
New York water supply, estimates that
a supply of 6o gallons per capita Is suf-
fcient, but if We allow so gallons per
capita, the present legitimate demands
of the population of the island do not
exceed 6, 100 coo, or about 60 per cent.
of the supply already developed The
supply already developed, therefore, will
last at least ten. years at the present rate
of increase Of the population, and the
large undeyeloped supplies will be ample
for ten years more.
The above facts are essential in der
termining the question of a necessity so
urgent as to require the State of New
Jersey to reseind its announced policy of
conserving its water supplies for the use
of its own inha bitants."
This protest from the Staten Island
Water Company has strengthened the
opinion held by many Jerseymen that
Mayor Mcclellan was influenced by the
East Jersey Water Cmopany, which, it
is alleged, is seeking to get rid OF the
law which prohibits it from selling any
of the unused daily flow of 100000
gallons of potaEse water controlled by
this companylon the North Jersey water
sheds.
The Hudson Water Company, which
had the contract to supply water to
Staten Island is said to be a subsidiary
company of the East Jersey Gompany.
Its contract for a wafer supply for Staten
Island was held up by an injunction,
which the Court of Chancery sustained,
and the companys appeal from the Chan
Gerry decision is still pending in the Court
of Errors and Appeals.

LOCAL OPTIONS CHANGE


Especial to 'sThe Jersey City. News.")
TRENTON, Feb. 8, 1905. Although
it had not been ANTICIPATED by the brew
ers who spoke against the Miller local
option bill, it is stated here to-day on
what seems to be reliable authority, that
the Municipal Corporations Committee
Of the House will report the measure fa-
vorably and allow its fate to be settled
by the House of Assembly.
One of the reasons advanced by the
Committee for its action is said 10 be
that the members did not care to bear
the onus of holding up the bill while the
members of the, House at large would
escape responsibility. Most Of the nlenl-
bers of the Committee. if not all of them,
favor the measure on its own merits, but
the case conpels them also to bring the
bill out.
1t 10 expected that when the bill is
taken up for action in the House it will
provoke a lively fght There are many
who personally favor the bill. bat who
cannot allow themselves to be placed OH
record as favoring it, fearing to antago-
nze the brewers and saloon interests.
These men would have preferred that the
committee had taken no action on it, but
had "a flowed it 10 die quietly. This would
have rescued them from a predicanent.
Now they viii be compelled to show their
hands by taking sides either for Or
against It.
It was said to-day that even if the
Miller local option passed the House it

Winter at last! After one of the
mildest seasons in the memory of "the
proverbial oldest fslabitant'' Jersey City
awoke this morning to find itself par
TALLY buried in fall of the meanest
kind of a mixture of snow, mist and hay
and later on, rain. The wind, too, through
the night, had been doing acrobatic
stunts, sweeping the snow bare from one
sidewalk In a street only to pile it up
on the other side. The horses attached
to trucks bound for the ferries got the
worst of it. The roadways had been
swept clear, but were left in slippery
condition. The iron hoofss Of the horses
could not keep the slippery paving stones
and early this morning drawing heavy
loads they slipped and fell, breaking their
legs. An night the S. P. c. a. ambu-
lances were kept busy responding to
such calls. When the downtown section
awoke It was only to find the stoops piled
with snow swept by the winds from the
middle of the streets. This was on both
sides of the street
"'Tis an Ill wind that blows nobody
good,'' shouted one servant to another
across the street, as they industriously
applied the broom to the snow that had
been blown up BY the wind on their re-
spectiye stoops.
The icy rails caused Belt Line trolley

she WILL PROBABLY RECOVER
IDENTIFIED AS MANDOLIN
o'NEILL, OF BROOKLYN. SHE
CLAIMS TO BE MARRIED TO
THE MAN TO WHOM SHE HAD
WRITTEN AN UNMAILED LET
TER.

A pretty young woman, richly dressed,
entered a down town Montgomery street
restaurant yesterday afternoon and seat
ing herself at a table ordered an oyster
stew. Placing the front of the back OF
her chair against the table she went to
a toilet room. A few moments later she
reappeared and other diners were horri-
fed tozsee her pitch forward IN the aisle
apparently in eonvulsioils. A City Hos
pital ambulance was summoned and the
young woman was sent to the City Hos
pital.
She was subsequently identified as
Mandolin O'Neill, twenty-one years old,
of Eleventh street, between Fifth and
Sixth avenues. 1t was ascertained that
tity of paregoric, which is said to
have the same effect as laudanum. 1t was
also discovered that the young woman
had recently returned from Tampa, Fla.
A letter addressed to one Edward OsNeill
was found among her effects. 1t read:
Ed, how I love you. Why don't you
love me?'' But little money was found
in the young woman's pocketbook, but a
gold watch suspended around the neck
by a gold chain. and in the open cases of
it pasted portraits Of herself and
young man, We're found. An apparent
gold band wedding ring adorned one of
her fingers. 1t was inscribed M.
O'Neill.''
1t was claimed that she was married
to one Edward O'Neill, but this fact
could not be established by the local au-
thorities this morning She claimed so
at the City Hospital where at noon to-
day she was rapidly recovering.

Where Fortunes Were Made and

When DAILY had acquired the proper
ties surrounding the Anaconda, he
opened up the Butte bill. One must
have a vivid Imagination to picture to
himself the growth Of Butte from that
time on during Marcus Days life.
Fortunes We're made and spent in

the mines daily to strip them Of their
treasure, huge forests were despolled
Of their timber to stull and shore up
the excavations and protect the earth
above, for these copper veins are often
100 feet wide Immense smokestacks
began to vomit their clouds Of smudge
from scores Of furnaces scattered over
the hill; the moan and clank Of huge
pumps could be heard In the depths
forcing the water to the surface; the
pound of hammers and the steady im-
pact Of drills sounded everywhere
while the earth trembled and beloved
with distant underground explosions.
Great hollows, like cathedral naves,
were scoopcd out, where the treasure
had lain in the rock ribbed earth.
Horses and mules were blindfolded
and lowered into the mines-where
their hides, like the gray boards Of the
old miners, soon took on the greenish
color Of the copper which saturates ev-
erything below the surface. The Butte

EEe Women Mostly Bald md the Mem
Mostly Drunknrds.
"The women, not the men, go bald In
Brittany" said a barber. They so
bald where it shows most-aboye the
ears. Women, quite bald above the
ears, are as common in Brittany as
baldheaded men are with US.
Brittany is granite strewn, hilly,
well wooded country in northwestern
France, overlooking the sea. 1t IS New
Hampshire, with the sea added. The
Breton peasants speak language
which resembles Welsh. They hate
strangers, and they wear q peculiar
costume
This costume IS what causes the
baldheaded woman. One part Of it, the
Golf, or headdress, a cap Of white linen,
REQUIRES that the hair be drawn back
yery taut from the temples. Drawn
back thus, as taut as it will go, it be-
gins to disappear at the age of twenty
five, and by the time she is thirty-hTe
or forty the Breton peasant woman
looks as il she were the victim OF some
horrible disease, for, from her temples
to well behind her ears, she is as bald
us an egg.
'The men, on the contrary, are never
bald. For one reason, they work bare
headed. For another, they belong tc

serves a head Of thick, coarse hair tc

BRITISH CASTE.
Love Of the EnElis:,man For a Tit1ei
Ruling Class.

Love Of the Enslisaman For a Titled
Ruling Class.
The presence of q personal sovereign
is the outward and visible sign that
caste is still supreme in the British en-
pire. The external abuses Of the feudal
system have been abolished in Great
Britain, one by one, until those that
still linger are almost harmless, but
the inner spirit survives to this late
day, and even now its manifestations
are abundant in almost every part OF
the social structure of the British Isles.
There is still alive the fiction that the
king rules and that lie army Of the
empire is his. majesty's army. There is
still willing acceptance of the titled
c,istocracy ard also Of an upper house,
the vast majority Of whose members
sit there By tie right Of birth only,
without regard to their individual
merits.
No doubt the British people could
change these things speedily and with
out violence if they really desired to
get rid Of this Inheritance from feudal-
ism. But they have not got rid Of it,
and this is evidence enough that they
do not wish to do so.
The British see no reason to abolish
a state Of affairs which the American
people look at with amazed wonder as
a survival Of the dark ages. \ native
American finds it wholly impossible to
understand the mental attitude Of a
certain man Of letters in London, who
justified his ingrained toryism by the
assertion that he simply would not be
ruled by his equals.-Reader,
