THE WATER QUESTION.
;. The following are extracts from only a few
• of 4 many communications received Jon V the
: water question yesterday : .-/,;»
p: Eds. Recobd-Fnion : In your list of wells
" of good water yon-left out that at Ninth and
'■ M streets. t I have used from it for domestic
r purposes, and think th's water to be good. It
> is a little charged, but if. sunk | deeper would
'. likely be as good as that on Tenth street." 1 : y
' S.
il Eds. Record-Union : ;: In ; 1850 '- we dug a
well on Tenth street, between J and K. We
. struck gravel at about fortj feet, and for some
years got a j plentiful supply of | pure, sweet
water. - Changes . in the street aud* adjacent
property led to the well being finally filled up.
.-,:.. M &/L.-/J
■s! Eds. Record-Union : I want to bear tes
timony to your statement that | it is difficult
to make strangers - like \ the i muddy river
water. i Old ■ residents do not, I think, ap
■ preciate what an offense i the muddy water is
to the new i comer. -/- Many . of !my friends
abroad dread visiting me here because of the
water. V I now buy . clear water trom a deep
: well proprietor, ; have shut off the hydrant
and ceased paying city rates. Theie ' are five
j families in roy I neighborhood who now ' buy
clear water. '- It seems to me that these facts
ought to lead to some action. :"'-"\ f -,".-.;.*J." "
".-/". H-Stbbet Housewife.
- Eds. Record-Union : ; You' are mistaken
, in your list of I fifteen wells of g»od water ;
there are over thirty wells of good water here.
; That at Knauer's is not yet finished, and the
water is a little hard. I believe : that any
where on . Poverty Ridge, or anywhere be
tween Florin and Tenth street, inexhaustible
supplies of water can be had if they will bore
for them. ; . Real Estate. ';
: . Eds. Record-Union : . I use Blue Canyon
water hauled from the railroad shops, and the
demand is so great that the railroad ' folks
; threaten to stop giving to any one. : ; Now
that,- it seems to me. should convince people
that Sacramentans do not all prefer - river
water, with its decaying vegetation. - I learn
that hundreds of people go to the wells' daily
and carry water home. .", ; _■";';.".. C. L. .;-;'
Eds. Recobd-Ukion : You omitted _ the
Richmond Grove well. It is only some 33
feet deep. If sent down 100 feet it would
probably be a flowing well. - As it is I drive
there and carry water home in preference to
using river water for drinking purposes.
-'-'." .A.. "/
. ' Eds. Record Union :. A competent well
borer this morning estimated the cost of a
test well at Poverty Ridge at less than §500.
Isn't the clear water question worth that
much to the people? Put me down for §5 of
the cost of the test well if the Trustees won't
do anything about it. . : Workingman. ;
:'.. Eds. Recobd-Union : I visit eveiy section
of the city daily on business, driving on nearly
every street and meeting many hundreds of
people." I want to sa^that your statement
that 99 out of every 100 of the people want
an investigation as to whether we can j get
clear water or not, is not enough. - I have not
found five in a thousand who do not talk
about it, and favor the inquiry the Recokd-
Union proposed the other day. . You ought
to be more accurate in such' figures. " The wa
ter question is about all that the people talk
about. " Driver.
Eds. Record-Union : Your estimate of
the water taken from Scheld's well, Twenty
eighth and M streets, was too low. I made
a measurement of it and of the power of the
pumps and of the supply it will give, and I
believe I can show that it will furnish nearer
to 500,000 gallons a day than 300,000. A.
Eds. Record-Union : I have just come up
from Stockton. Down there they have clear,
pure water, and plenty of it. It is all drawn
from artesian wells, pumped up into a reser
voir on Hunter street, and thence supplied to
the city. Stockton is on lower ground than
Sacramento, with no high lands near it, yet
the underground deep-well water there . is
No. 1. I believe Sacramento can have clear
water running in the city pipes inside of
three months." ■ rv..; .-:•;;._. ri:, J.
E^s. Record-Union: If the river water is
so good, why is it that the railroad company
sends a train clear to Blue Canyon to haul
water down^iere for its SOO workers to drink,
over at the shops I think that is the best
evidence of whether the pudding is worth
eating. -r.pjyj Forge.
- Eds. Record-Union : Not long ago Mr.
Cunningham, Chief Engineer at the Water
Works, told me that a hard crust is forming
on the inside of the water pipes, which is les
sening the diameter of the pipes and their
capacity, so that it will only be a matter of
time when thej will have to be replaced, and
that it is owing to the sediment in the river
water. If this is so it is a reason for securing
clear water as soon as possible which you
have not yet mentioned ; besides, the sedi
ment destroys the machinery of the Water
Works rapidly. W.
\ Eds. Record-Union : If clear water can
be had from the wells that all the town is
talking about, I hope it will, that we may be
able t% do away with filters and settling
barrels, that are a source of great trouble to
all housekeepers. I think the cost of filters
and so much ice ought to be considered . in
this matter. Mrs. S.
: Extensive Alarm. — About 4 o'clock yes
terday morning the stillness of the ; early
dawn was badly broken in the neighborhood
of Third and L streets, by screams of murder
and vigorous blasts of a police whistle. Offi
cers Ferral and Rider hearing the alarm
rushed to the scene, expecting to find a brace
of murders and.a variety of lesser perpetrated
crimes, but upon arrival saw an Indian by the
name of Raphael Vasquez running across the
street in .shirt sleeves and bare-headed from a
house on the south side, and a woman stand
ing in the door in a loose flowing white gar
ment, excitedly screaming "Police," "Mur
der," "Stop that man,"' and other similar ex
pressions tending tohighten the dramatic effect.
''That man," who was making for Third
street as fast as his powers of locomotion
would propel him, was taken in and matters
investigated. It appears that Vasquez had
entered the house through a rear open win
dow, and had taken off his coat and was about
to make himself at home when Sirs. Cravens,
who keep-, the establishment, woke up and
spied him, and scared the poor fellow so badly
that he made an unceremonious exit through
an open front window, and was followed by a
general alarm turned in with police whistles
and screams. "Upon examination the "na
tive son of the golden West" was found to
have left on a lounge in the house his coat, a
white bed-spread and three or four pounds of
very ancient codfish. Vasquez was taken to
the police station, and will explain his famil
iarity to Judge Henry.
Death of E. C. Fellows.— E. C. Fel
lows, Assistant General Superintendent of
the Central Pacific Railroad, died at Oakland
at half-part 5 o'clock last evening. Mr. Fel
lows was well known in this city, where he
was greatly respected. His social and manly
qualities were only rivaled by his abilities as
an officer of bo important a department as
that in which he served. Flags were placed
at half mast cut of respect to the memory of
Mr. Fellows last evening on the steamboat
and railroad shops Ami offices here. Dis
patches state that the cause of Mr. Fellows'
death, he having been sick nearly two weeks,
cannot now be accurately stated ; but one of
the chief causes was .congestion : of the liver,
arising from climatic changes _ experienced
daring his recent trip to the present terminus
of the Southern Pacific Railroad in Arizona.
Mr. Fellows was a native of Syracuse, N. V.,
and aged 17 years. He arrived iv California
in 1860. Several gentlemen connected with the
; railroad departments in this city will leave
here Thursday to attend the funeral.
Captain . Eads' Movements. — Captain
Eads, the ' engineer, an account of an inter
view with whom '. appeared .in yesterday's
Record-Union, leaves for San Francisco
this morning, where he will remain two or
three days. On his return he, in company
with Knjri'e-rs Halanl Mendtll and Com
missioner Knox, will leave for Marysville,
where the party will be joined by, Commis
sioners Parks and Searles. They will then
tako a trip through the Yuba river mining
regions, and returning go , up . the Feather
river to Oroville. Returning again to Marys-,
ville, they will go up the Bear river and view
the destroyed lands. f Returning again
to Marysville they will take a boat and ill
scend the Sacramento river to tbis city. - A
short trip along the American will probably
follow, and lastly a voyage down the Sacra
mento to its mouth.

' "After eloquent addresses by W. A. Cheney,
S. Solon Holl, H. L. Buckley and Robert
Small, the meeting adjourned, to meet next
Tuesday evening at Central Hall, with three
cheers for Garfield and Arthur.
REPUBLICAN MEETING— SOME STATIS
TICS.
The regular meeting of . the Republican
Second Ward Garfield and Arthur . Club was
held t at . the Grand , Hotel last evening and
quite a large attendance resulted. . After the
usual business was transacted lively speeches
were made by several, ■ general good . feeling
prevailed, ';' and a i number . signed the roll.
During the ■ evening interest was awakened
by the reading by the Secretary of a copy of
official statistics relative to the votes cast for
General Garfield at the Congressional elec
tions ■ held in - the ' Nineteenth District Of
Ohio from October 14, 1862, to October 8,
1878. / The : paper showed ■ the votes
for f Garfield to be as follows:
"In 1862. 13,288, against Wood, Democrat;
with 6,703. " Id ■ 1864, 18,086, against Moses,
Democrat, with 6,315. ~ In 1866, 18,362,
against Coleman, Democrat, with 7,376. In
1868, 20,187, against McEwer., Democrat,
with 9,759.. In 1870, 13,538, against Howard,
Democrat, with 7,203. - In 1872," 19,189,
against Sutliff, Democrat and Liberal Repub
lican, 1 with 8,254. r_ In 1874, : 12,591, against
Woods,- Democrat, with 6,245, Hulburt, In-*
dependent, ■ with 3,247, and -Price, Prohibi
tionist, 391. In 1876, 20,112, against General
Cassemeat; a Union soldier and a Democrat,
with 11,340, ' and Stranahan, Prohi
bitionist, "-' 21. In :'■■ 1878, " 17,166, ;
against Hubbard, ' Democrat, with 7,553,
Turtle, ' Greenbacker and Labor candidate,
with 8,148, and Reeves, Prohibitionist,
with 98. : In every case he had a majority
overall, ranging from the minimum of 0,275
to the maximum of 11,771. Last year he was
a recognized aspirant for Senator Tliurman's
seat, and the result was the return of a Leg
islature with a Republican majority of 30 on
joint ballot. In the preceding Legislature
the Democrats had a majority on joint ballot
of 43. General Garfield ; was elected to the
United States Senate as against Thurman.
The elections of 1864 08 72 and 76 immedi
ately preceded the Presidential elections and
drew out a large - vote. The Democratic
Legislature of 1878 redistricted General Gar
field's district by detaching Portage . county
from one district and Mahoning from another
and transferring | the first : to I the Sixteenth
District and attaching the latter to the Nine
teenth ; but notwithstanding this attempt to
defeat him General Garfield overcame all op
position." ' *
The Club resolved to attend the State ratifi
cation meeting, August 12th, in a body.;
A committee was appointed to ascertain
from the President of the Republican Legion
the day on which it would regularly meet,
the purpose being to change the date of meet
ing of the Second Ward Club if necessary. -
The Club then adjourned.
Another Boy Heard From.— A worthy
lady in the Ninth-street Baptist Church Sun
day-school a few days ago was carefully ex
plaining to an infant class the story of Adam
and Eve, the eating of the forbidden fruit,
the consequent shame, and how the two hid
themselves from the face of their Maker, who
searched them out and called to them in their
hiding-place. .She then went the round of
the class, and asked questions tending to test
the comprehension of the little ones regard
ing* the narrative. . To one little chap in
roundabout and knickerbockers came this
question: "How did the Lord find Adam
and Eve?" '_ i Little shaver scratched his
head and cogitated. "Don't be bashful.
How did He find Adam and Eve?" Still
short clothes was puzzled, and twisted and
turned on his seat in his struggle for an an
swer. Then the teacher said, a littlt? sharply:
"Come! come How I did the Lord find
Adam and Eve?" "Well, I 'spect, ma'am—
I— l— 'spect. ma'am. He had a spyglass, He
did." That boy was given an extra ticket,
aud the class was dismissed.
A Singular Case.— A lady who is a pro
fessional nurse in this city, not long since was
in attendance upon a lady who was ill con
sequent upon blood-poisoning resulting from
premature child-birth.^ During one of the
unconscious periods while the nurse was feed
ing pellets of ice to the patient, the teeth of
the latter closed upon the finger of the nurse,
wounding it. Soon after the . patient died.
The nurse is now ill of blood-poisoning also ;
her hand, arm and shoulder are in a bad con
dition, and the disease has attacked her sys
tem and seriously endangered her life. .
The HOT Ranch To-morrow , even
ing, at his hop ranch near Routier's Station,
A. Menke will give the ball which it is the
custom to hold there each year just prior to
the hop harvest. :: The road to the ranch is in
fine order, and the drive out will be well
worth the trouble. . Church, Jones k ! Beebe
arc to furnish the music, and R. D. Stephens
and Lee Stanley are to act as floor managers.
A supper is to be spread midst the fifty acres
of hop vines, and it is expected that a speci
ally enjoyable time will be had by all who
attend. ■
Post Mortem Regrets.— A great deal of
interest and solicitude are being manifested
over Dr. Tanner's* fasting experiment to de
monstrate that board bills are a useless ex
pense, and that the matter of eating is merely
a habit anyhow, and can readily be dispensed
with. .-- A woman ; up v town, while ■ talking
upon .t he subject yesterday remarked that
First thing the Doctor knows he'll be dead,
aud then he'll be sorry for his foolishness." .
7., Moke Recruits.— At a meeting last even
ing of the committee of citizens superintend
ing the organization of the Governor's Guard
(cadets) the . following " new l members t were
elected : Privates— B. F. Shields, E. Dosh,
D. Ross, Fa. '• Q. Naghel, C. Fredericks, H.

J Small Runaways. —Two ranchers' teams
engaged in small runaways , ; yesterday, •" in
town one on ' X and Seventh f streets,": and
another ;on Twelfth - and J, but no serious
damages resulted, and there was not enough
of the abandon and spirit in the enterprise to
make a readable item. ; ;. .
Orange Crop.— The' orange : crop will . be

; The preparations i for ; erecting the rolling
mills are . now in \ active -. progress..'^ The site
' for the building, which is immediately by the
side of .the overland track, and south of the
copper-shop,' has been cleared and staked off
for ; the ; foundation. '4* A pile-driver, with! 82
feet drop,'! has been erected, and fa] donkey
engine was yesterday placed ; in position for
operating'] the • hammer, and j the - work of
driving piles will be commenced to-day. The '
piles are on the ground, ranging in ■ diameter
from 15 to 20 .' inches,' and . are jto_ be driven
into 1 the ; earth i a ; distance f of % about £ 70
feet. These are to be ; driven down [in - that

80 by 180 feet,"; with ' a : lean-to addition for
boiler-house,' etc., 20 feet _ wide and . running
the entire length.;; This will make the build
ing 100 by ISO feet. The posts or sides of the

bridge 153 1 feet from 1 the I ground.?-; The roof
will be of corrugated iron, similar to the; de

for these . works will be of horse J power.-
It will be ' a vertical engine, with I cylinders
32 inches in diameter and "30-inch stroke. "3 It
is expected there will be six furnaces, with a
boiler for each, to run the engine and the im
mense steam hammer, which will weigh about
10,000 pounds, -i The anvil-block, or bed upon
which it is to play, will weigh about 25 tons.
A crane for use at the hammer will be of suf
ficient Btrength to carry from 25 to 30 tons.
It is not yet determined whether this will be
operated by hydraulic power or other method.
The ! purpose of the rolling mills is to event
ually manufacture everything in the line of
iron and steel used by the railroad company,'
which will largely increase the number of its

A MONGOLIAN EXPERT.
J At a prominent place on J ; street, within
spyglass distance of ' Fourth street, works a
gentleman Having great love " for ' the beauti
ful, as _ symbolized . by flowers. '' He ; has , or
several years past been . cultivating his taste,"
botanically speaking, by going :to great : ex
pense in ereticng a green-house, 7 and placing
therein the paraphernalia necessary to care
for and propagate rare botanical . specimens.
His specialty was flowering bulbous plants.
He purchased all the books treating on that
class of flowers, and entirely committed them
to J- memory. ,- Very naturally , he \ thought
he was* a-■ veritable Vick, and that
there : 'was ; 7no '• -■' flower he '•' could " ■-. not ■
call by its technical name on . sight. Among
his acquaintances was an Oriental, known by
the euphonious name of Tom Ah Did Yon. This
individual exhibited a great interest in the
floral collection of his " Mellican fiend," and
soon the florist discovered that his Oriental
friend was an excellen; botanist, at least was
skilled regarding bulbous plants, as many of
the Chinese are, and he frequently consulted
him as to new specimens.'.*: A few days ago
the amateur florist was presented (so he Bays,
but there is only his statement as to that)
with a beautiful specimen of the Sicily lily.
At any rate, ; by. some means, fair or foul,
he procured one. He was told it was a flower
even more rare than the rarest he possessed.
He was exceedingly elated, and ignorant of
the fact that the lily really resembles the
flower of the Hubbard ! squash,' and with aa
happy a smile upon his countenance as mortal
could possibly summon up, he hurried to the
saloon- where' his Oriental sympathizer was
employed _ and rushed excitedly in, exclaim
ing, "Eureka! "which signified to the Chi-'
naman that he had found it. (This, by the
way, * contradicts the subsequent statement
that it had been presented : to him.) .. The
Chinaman, who had never, seen such a speci
men before, inspected it a moment, and with
a significant curl of the lip remarked, "Oh!
you no sabe flowers. Him - alle same old
squash." The bulbous-plant man says that thin
criticism of his specimen has knocked all the
poetry out of his composition, and his entire
stock i 3 for sale without reserve. * ; -"—

The Corwix's Arctic Cruise. The
following is from the San Francisco Bulletin
of 'July, 20th V:
'. ■'. The revenue cutter Thomas Corwin '- ar- ;
rived at Ounalaoka on the 3d of June, after
a : rough passage of twelve days from ) this
port. ~ It will be remembered that the Cor
win was sent from this harbor in the latter
end of May, for i the : purpose of relieving
the two whaling barks— Mount Wollaston
and >_ the Vigilant — which were caught by
the ice last fall and compelled to winter in
the V Arctic, and 'give \ relief, ': if I necessary,
also to the exploring steam yacht Jeannette.
The following is an extract of a letter from
one of the Corwin'a officers,'- dated. Ouna
laska, June 7th : "We have 100 -tons of
coal ;on board ' now, 1 ' and will : sail \ to-mor
row morning for the islands and the north.
We hope to be at ' the straits by , the - 15th
instant, and ; -will push through into I the
Arctic on the first opening of the ice. We
are all prepared for a winter in the Arctic, !
having enough stores on board to last I all
bands fourteen months. At St.' Michaels
we will -j procure two dog trains and add- a
quantity •; of g salt /fish ( to ' our ' provisions. \
The indications ' are ' favorable for an early
opening of the ice. -■ The past winter was ;
mild ami the spring stormy. "'■ - High winds
are; said ; to break . the > ice and 'open - the -
Arctic earlier I than i clear," fine, weather,
which is usually accompanied by, a very"
low temperature."
_- The Hartford Times is responsible for
the statement that it "was iin ; the gentle
spring-time, when ' the : flowers 7 -were 'in :
bloom and the birds sang sweetly in the '
trees, that Mr. Gallagher started : from the
barn to- the,' house, with an egg in each |
hand, and a wicked | hornet ! alighted upon ,
his nose and began to get in his work, and
Mr. Gallagher struck the insect and spoiled
an egg." ,•..; . ._ ;.
