River Flows
Beneath Reno

In sinking a well to install a large
hydraulic type elevator in the new
Gazette building, the contractors have
demonstrated the fact that Reno is
situated above large Subterranean
river with a current swifter than that
of the Truckee. The flow is from the
north and the strongest current is
several feet beneath the surface of
the Truckee. 1t also demonstrates,
according to many who have viewed
the flow of water from north to south
that at one time there was river
running through this portion of Ne
vada with a volume of water more
than five times as large as that in the
Truckee and that the drainage OF this
portion of Nevada was in a different
direction.
In order to lower this we'll for the
installation of the large hydraulic
rams. it has been necessary to install
"a six-inch centrifugal pump. and al
though this is kept running steadily
it. does not lower the water in the
shaft to any extent. If it was stop
ped for five minutes the well would
fill up to point within few feet OF
the Surface-(iaZette.

Damask table cloths and napkins
which have become too worn for their
legitimate uses should be cut into
different sized pieces for doilies. tray
cloths, and to use around corn and
other things served in napkin.
As no housekeeper can have too
many or varied sizes of these table
accessories. even the worst worn
cloths can be made to yield a little
longer service.
Cut some of the pieces oval. others
round, some square and still others
oblong. The finer and better pieces
may be worked with scallop in white
mercerized cotton. This adds much
TO their appearance, and is pleasant
pickup work for odd minutes
The scallops can be drawn on with
the edge of a SPOOL the size varied by
the size of spool selected For the
quite small doilies TO be used under
finger bowls or on biscuit plates. the
scallop should be drawn with the edge
of n hundred spool of cotton and the
inner line should be kept rather shall
low. Tray cloths may have a longer
scallop or they can be worked with a
grouped scallop composed OF three
small ones.
This is such quick work that It we'll
repays the trouble. The everdiminish-
ing supply Of such things, which every
housekeeper must contend with can
be overcome by small expense and
little work.
The more worn pieces should he
hemmed either by hand or machine.
