WATER SUPPLY
LOW; PEOPLE
ARE NOTIFIED

Deputy Commissioner of Water
Supply, Gas and Electricity, of the
borough of Richmond, has issued a
notice appealing to the people to
use judgment in using water for
sprinkling lawns, sidewalks and
flower beds during the dry spell
that has continued for several weeks.
In some parts of the borough there
Is a general scarcity of water. There
Is an ordinance which prohibits
springling lawns without a meter.
If anyone is caught they will be ar
rested and fined.
Many complaints had been made
in regard-to. the streets throughout
the borough not being sprinkled dur
ing the past few weeks. Superin-
tendent.H. Ee-Buel, of the highway
department, who has been blamed
for the dusty roads has issued the
following statement:
THAT the public may know the
reason that the streets of the bor-
ough are, not cs~prinkied is because of
the inability OF the water depart
ment to furnish water for that pur-
pose except where absolutely neces-
sary In the building of new roads.
We are doing all We a to remedy
this condition by placing asphaltic
oil and taroid on the roads and
pumping water in some parts of the
island out OF ponds and river. New
wells are being driven by the water
department along the boulevard SO
as to be used along that thorough
fare to keep the dust down. Nearly
all of the streets In this section have
oil on and the people have no cause
for complaint"

A RECORD IN HITTING.

In Five Times at Bat.
The baseball expert Hugh S. Fuller

executed by Ed Delehanty, and which
It was his good fortune to witness:
"Adonis Terry was pitching-a-great
pitcher with q wonderfully fast curve
ball-and three of the home runs were
made off the curve. The first time
at bat Delehanty hit the ball high over
the right field fence, perhaps seventy
feet from the foul Hne, which would
fence was thirty-hve feet high. The
second time he hit over the same fence,
but farther toward center field. The
third time he drove a single over short
stop, a line hit and perhaps the hard
est hit Of all. Dahlen, leaping, touched
the ball with both hands. They were
torn apart and the ball caromed al
most to the left delders before 1t struck
the ground. The next home run was
straight to the center field between
the c~lubhoHses, nearly 400 feet away.
The last time he came to the bat the
crowd was cheering him on. Lange

were set at angles. Delehanty hit q

INNS or CHINA.
A Knock That Wrecked a Door and
Raised a Rum us.

- -
Some Of the inns of modern China
are badly built. The correspondent of
the London Times in travelling across
the country recently had this expert
ence; "At only n village had | any
difficulty. We were marching late in
the dark, and | had sent my groom
on ahead to find me an Inn, al he lad
often done before. He entered the
village, and, finding the large inn door
closed, he called out to the people to
open it. But his Picking speech Is not
easily understood in Kansu, and no one
answered him. Then he knocked, and
to his dismay the crazy door fell down.
Immediately there was a row. The
innkeeper and his vociferous spouse
shouted out their wrongs
every one came into the street to
hear; the whole village was reused.
When l arrived it seemed like q DEM
onstration In my honor. AS is the
custom, a dozen people together told
me what had happened. l soon salts
fed every one by first examining the
damage and then paying compensa-
ton in full. l paid 100 cash (rather
more than twopence), and my gener-
osity was approved.

HELPED BY HUMIDITY.

Many Matsrials and Products Which
Require Moist Air.
There are many materials, operations
and products which require special
atmospheric conditions for advanta-
geous or profitable maintenance. Prfn-
eipai among such operations is the
manufacture Of textiles, perhaps the
largest. single industry carried on In
factories. La the favored climate OF
the Lancashire district of England the
natural climate affords working con-
ditions. equaled In America only on oc-
casional days in certain localities.
Even in England, however, there are
many days in which the atmosphere Is
too dry for the best work.
Since textile fibers are increased in
strength and elasticity by high humid
ity and moderately high temperature,
~breakages are less frequent under
proper conditions, and the output Is in
creased. But even before the fiber
reaches the manufacturing plant at
mospheric humidity plays an important
part. Cotton loses weight as II dries
out, but, more than that, the fbers
bristle and appear shorter aud Of lower
grade than when slightly moistened.
Leather, feathers and many other por-
GUS substances lose Il considerable per-
centage of weight in drying ouy, SO that
the maintenance of average and uni
form humidity In the storage oo9s
has q direct advantage to the owner
in maintaining the value of his goods
as they lie in the warehouse. Cigars
and tobacco lose favor In dry air and
regain 1t to some extent, after loss,
by storage in proper humidified rooms.
Wooden furniture and musical instru-
ments are sometimes cracked or the
finish injured the dry air of steam
heated rooms. All these and other
similar goods are adyantageously
worked or stored In rooms IN which the
atmospheric humidity is artiiciaily
controlled and kept at the most desira-

A PIGS SoUEAL.
1t Played a Momentoua Part In Ameri-
can History.

1t Played a Monsntous Part In Ameri-
can History.
The war between this country and
England in 1912 was caused by one
vote, and, stranger still, the small mar
gin came from a pig getting its head
stuck in a rail fence. 1t was a Rhode
Island fence at that, but built much
like q Virginia worm fence.
They were having an election of
members of the legislature in Rhode
Island. One Federalist put off going
to the election and left himself just
time enough to get there before the
polls closed. Just al he got on his
horse and started for town he heard a
pig squeal. He looked around and
saw that the pig had its head jammed
into that old rail fence, and anybody
who knows anything about hogs
knows that the hogs would have eaten
that pig up If 1t hadn't been rescued.
The farmer stopped long enough to
Iiberate the pig, aud when he got to
the polls they were closed. He was
too late.
The result was that a Democratic
member Of the Legislature was elected
from that district by one vote, and he
would not have been elected If that
Federal had got there On time. In
the legislature a Democratic United
States senator was elected by n vote,
and that Democratic legislator who
had been elected by one vote voted
for him.
In the United States senate they
voted for the var Of 1912 by one vote,
and that Rhode Island Democratic
senator who had been elected because
that pig was caught in the fence voted
for the war of 16i2.-Popular Maya
