NO NEW ENGINES NEEDED. those at the waterworks good for fifty years. That I* Wlmt Sir. John Hnnrke Soy*. Those at the Oltl Waterworks Are Also lu Good Condition—Only Crlt. leiam of the YVater System Mr. Kourke Can Slake Is the I‘ossible Yeed of More Well* in Case of a Great Fire—Savannah Cannot Join Atlnnta In the Trouble That City Is Having About Its Water—Lenk In the Conduit Will Soon Be Re paired. Sxperts agree that there is no reason tthy Savannah should have any such trou ble with its waterworks as is now wor rying Atlanta. The question of water has become of paramount importance in the Capital City, even the conduct of the May or, the performance of the two or three sensational preachers who contrive to keep things pretty well stirred up and the general manipulation of the affairs of the slate sinking into insignificance in the public estimation beside the great and vi tal consideration of a water supply, the prevention of a rise in insurance rates and the settlement of blame for the breakage of the engine upon whatever pair of shoul ders it should rest. In Savannah two sets of engines are ready all the time to supply the city with more water than it can possibly use. At lanta and Savannah both have the direct system, the water being pumped from the source of supply to the consumers, and not into a standpipe or reservoir first. But Atlanta seems to have made the error of having engines that were inadequate to the task, and now there is great confu sion and alarm over it. “With such use as they receive at the pumping station,” said Mr. John Rourke yesterday, “the engines here should last fifty years. They are run very slowly, and the near and tear upon them is very “light. They are run alternately for a week at a time, and there is no reason why they should wear out. As far as I can see, there is absolutely no reason why any alarm should be felt. "The two engines at the old waterworks aj-e also In first-class condition. I know them both, and they are capable of doing a great deal more effective service. I see nothing at all to criticise in the matter of engines. In fact, there is-nothing con nected with the Savannah waterworks system that I could criticize save the number of wells. Two or three more should be sunk in order that a greater supply of water might be at hand in the event of extraordinary need. If there should lie a great fire, lasting a long while, it might be found that the present supply of water Is Inadequate to fighting It, and then It would be seen that more wells should have been sunk. You know it is an old saying that ‘You never miss your water till your well runs dry.’ If would be easy enough to choke off the supply from the wells when It is not needed." Supt. Kinsey of ihe waterworks is still busy with a force of hands in trying to patch the break in the conduit that conducts the water from the wells. It is thought the work will soon be finished. The break is in the top of the conduit, and the loss of water has not been as great as it would have been had the break been in the side or bottom The conduit is not always full, so that the pressure Is not enough to force very much of the water out. There Is no means of estimating what the loss of water daily has been. No complaint at all has been heard about the supply of w’ater. The old en gines are thoroughly capable of supply ing all that is needed while Ihe break is being repaired, and it Is not likely that the slightest Inconvenience will be nf forded. It is In such emergencies that the advantage of having two sets of en gines is to be seen. For some eight years the engines at the new waterworks have done their work with never a fault. Their capacity is 20,000.000 gallons a day, when worked thetr best, hut they do not pump more than about 6,050,000 gallons dally. There is no need for more. The capaciiy of the old engines is not so great, but they are yet able to supply the city. A Word to Col. Roowevrlt. From the Chicago Journal (Ind.) “They stand for lawlessness and disor der, for dishonesty and dishonor, for license and disaster at home, and cow ardly shrinking from duty abroad.”—Gov. Roosevelt, speaking about the Democrats. Come, come. Col. Roosevelt, you don’t believe that! You don’t believe it, and Re publicans generally don’t believe It. What you believe and meant to say is that six or seven million American citizens who will vote for Mr. Bryan next fall are law-abiding and orderly people, honest and honorable, favoring liberty under proper restrictions and general prosper ity at home and manly and unflinching facing of duty abroad, but that they have what you believe to be a misconception of the proper policy of -the government. That's what you think, Col. Roosevelt. Then, why not soy it? Mere abuse is easy. Sometimes it is amusing for a time. But it is never convincing, and even when it is clever it entertains only for a little while. No mud is immortal, and the American public soon tires of a mud throwing campaign. If there are six or seven millions of persons in this country who “stand for lawlessness and disorder, dishonesty and dishonor, disaster at home and cowardly shrinking from duty abroad,” God help the country! It is worse off than China. But there aren’t. Be more tolerant, Colonel. Don’t let ihe vapors of the canvass get into your head, beating your mind and corrupting your speech. Remember the fate of Ingalls He was as clever as you are and almost ns picturesque, but he mistook the temper of Republicans. He thought they wanted • o hear the Democrats abused and slan dered, and he did, making a very amusing job of it. Where is he now? Peddling his unimportant opinions to the yellow newspapers. Look at Tillman. Another ease in point. Who heeds Tillman? Don’t be on Ingalls, Colonel. Don’t be a Tillman! *~+- / The Wearing of Suspender*. From the New York Times. Is there anything improper about a pair o? suspenders? Of course they are not Pretty, but is there any reason why men should bo ashamed of them and women should regard It as an affront to hove ’hem exhibited in their presence? There 5 an unwritten law, with which every trail is acquainted, that if you desire to ro without a waistcoat in hot weather, V* u must wear a belt with your trousers, omit the useful but unsightly sus- P* nders. If you insist on wearing sus penders, you muM keep your coot but ’■ ned. while the man with the belt may ,f t his fly to the winds of heaven. Now, if you chance to bo in the flush of young rranhood, slender, erect, and slim of "aist, the holt is an excellent adjunct to •he lower garment. But if the better half of life has sped into the post and T he expansionist years have added terri tory to your waist, the suspenders are tenfold more comfortable than the belt. And ihis in truth well known of oil •Pen whose girth, when they sit down, elnmor* for more space. “You and I can rot be confined within the weak list of a country's fashion.” said Henry V. to Katherine, and perhaps in this speech f re may he a pertinent suggestion to •Pen of parts.

From the Baltimore Sun. Let every cat driven about the city by dogs listen to this story. There is a place where cats are honored, a household In which all the domestic affairs revolve around a family of cats. It is a large three-story house on Maryland avenue, just west of Whittier street. The love of cats with Miss Lena Pattee, the charm ing little lady who is at the head of the house, has grown year by year, until now she is unable to turn away even a stray. Did you ever hear of a house where the cats ruled the dogs? So it is at Miss Pattee’s. A little brown spaniel is one of her pets, but if any of the cats, big or little, become offended at him, Mr. Major must patiently submit to being cuffed on the ears. The cats do not scratch him— they never scratch anybody. Perhaps this is because they are treated so kind ly* and never go hunting for rats or mice. True it is that all the cats In the house have a different expression from most of the cats in the world. Their eyes ore very wide apart giving a logical cast to the forehead, and the gentlest, sweetest look beams forth from these mild eyes. They love to be petted all day long, and they never scratch or bite. Except Miss Boots. This is the cat that every one Is afraid of. She is fierce and vervous, and her owner says that if Miss Boots should ever escape from her “room” and get among the other cats there would be such an awful cat fight, such breaking of fur niture, such smashing of window's and tearing of cat fur that all the three wo men in the house would run away and never come back again. Miss Boots ha* n large room of her own on the third floor with three windows in it. When Pattee removed into this new house n few months ago she furnished Miss Boot’s room exactly as it seemed that she would like it. for the black cat belongs to Miss Pattee’s younger sisters, who are away, and therefore she must have especial at tention. There i? oilcloth of a bright pat tern on the floor, shelve* at every window where Miss Boots may sun herself, n chair or two and a pretty white bed witn clean sheets on it. The nervous, slender little cat Is not al together to blame for her Irritability. She was In South St. Louis in the tornario of 1896. and her nerves have never been Just right since then. She has a huge feather pillow on her bed, and when a storm ccmes up Miss Boots files lo the pil low .md buries her head. There Is very little company at the house, but once In a while Mis Bools receives visitors be sides Miss Pattee and the young lady who Is her companion, and then Miss Boots Is very reluctant for them to leave. She v. 11l fly at her guest and bite when the guest gets- ready to go. But it is not right, her gentle mistress says, that Miss Boots should be confined In her high room all day. There Is a big basket for her, and for two hours ev ery day the other cats are ehut up In the house and Miss Boots is carried down io sun herself. The cats' gymnasium has grwn grass under'* a th. but It Is not quite as free as nature, because there Is a wire netting above and all around It. so that the cats cannot get away. The place Is as big at Bools's room, and the cats enjov It very much. The three Angoras never go In the house unless they are made to do so. The cli mate is. perhaps, a little too warm for them. They are very delicate, and one Angora cat died not very long ago. Miss Muffett’s coloring is in dainty hues of yel low. white and gray, ami she haw very thick heavy fur, sprinkled with extremely long, silvery hairs. Chinci claims the same noble blood as Miss Muffet, but he is part Maltese also. The striping? of white and Maltese are plainly shown on his beautiful gray feathery tail. The other Angora is little Minette. Miss Muf fett s S-weeks-old kitten, which is dark gray. The Angoras hive to be brushed every day. for if their long hair gets mat ted they will die. Dame is a common gray cat. who came as a stray. She doesn't claim much beauty except for her stripes, but she is very good, and is “proud of her daughter, the Jersey Lily, a cat almost white, with a few' black marks. Patrick O'Leary is a special pet of his misires*. He ha an ngraMating Irish way with him. traceable to nothing el-e but the fact that he was bern on St. I atrick’s day H> a big fellow and wears a green ribbon cn his lirhday. He n ver tires of being pe.ted, and he has only ono wdeked desire. That is to ca*ch the canary bird, which is the monarch of the ixarlor. Once Patrick knocked the cage down, and another time be even had the bird in his mouth, but the little creature recovered almost imnied.ately and still sings on. Patrick’s little sister N*>ra died some time ego, but he has a companion who resembles him a go and and nl. Cuba Lbre. The big gray cat was hi rft during tl e Bpnni-h war, and he hates the Spanish colors alove all thing-. The <ats play and sb ep all day. and they have the r r gular meals Just as if they were peoj le Mi k is bought for them and meat, and somedmes medicine. A doc tor in the n< ighborhcod knows a good deal about cats, and he has prescribed more than once. Thtn when night comes the kitties are iak none by one-except Miss Poo's—to tl eir l eiroom. Foch has his b *sk* t, wi h a big cushion, which in win ter is cover*si with flannel. The baskets are brought up to a big room on the sec ond floor, furnished like that of Miss Beots. On the wall is a pretty framed wa ter color of a group of little dogs, and h re the eat* sleep pleasantly till morn ing comes again. It Is a paradise for cats, as each out of the colony would say if he could talk And if the other cats who have tee bom's could only read <hey might this story and then form a union and go fn mass* t the house where cats are trea*ed so kindly. A GIRL ROI'GH-RIDEIt. The Varied Accomplishments of Mins Lucille lliiltiall. From the New York Commercial. When Roosevelt’s Rough Riders held their recent reunion in Oklahoma City. Miss Lucille Mullhall—e name that some how suggests the verses of Owen Mere dith rather than bronchos and lariats—was the one cbwgirl in attendance, and by far the greatest attraction there. She is only 14 years old and w’eighs only ninety-two pounds, but she can break* a broncho, lasso and brand a steer and shoot a coyote at 500 yards. She can also play Chopin, quote Browning by the yard, “scan attic me tres with a critic’s ken’’ and make a mayonaise dressing on call. As yet she is a little ashamed of these latter accom plishments, which are a concession to the civilized prejudices of her mother. Her father, Zach Mulhall, Is the greatest live stoc'k agent of the St. Louis and San Fran cisco Railroad, but he own? and occupies a big ranch on Beaver Creek, 50 miles from Oklahoma City. His other and older daughter. Miss Agnes, suggested to Hoyt, the playwright, whatever of a plot there is in “A Texas Steer’’—and her own per sonolity may be easily recognized in the heroine of the play. All the territory was talking about the approaching “Rough Riders’ ’’ reunion. Delegation's came to invite Lucille to give an exhibition of her frontier accomplish ments and enter the compe tit ions. Mrs. Mulhall consented to her daughter's ap pearance for this occasion only. Lucille, overjoyed, went into training and was de lighted to find that her term in the schol arly shades of the convent had' not less ened her skill with the lariat and rifle. Miss Lucille matched her skill and cou rage against the world of cow punchers and she covered herself with glory. She has spent one term at a convent In St. Louis, but she was homesick for the plains and glad to mount a fiery cow pony with a lariat coiled at the pommel. And the Jowboys welcomed her as if she had been one of themselves. Mrs. Mulhall smiled even as she sighed. In the fall Miss Lucille will return to the convent, and in the course of time, if her mother’s hopes be fulfilled, she will be too dignified a young lady to engage in any more boisterous diversion than a co tillon. But she will never forget the proud moment when, flushed with victory, she was presented to Gov. Roosevelt, who bow ed to her ceremoniously and told her that not a “Rough Rider” in his famous troop could have done better than she. A Deltclon* Smoke.
