EDITOR GAZETTE.——Tlle action of the ,
Court of Burgesses in having the wa- .
ter mains in Main street examined, is a I
move in the right direction, and it
should be. as soon as the frost is out of
the ground, a thorough one.
The writer was one of the original
petitioners for public water, and was
conversant with the action of the com-
missioners in the adoption of cement-
lined and cement-covered mains, which
had at that time been in successful use
in Newark, N. J ., for more than twenty
years. The mistake made. by the com-
missioners, at the time of the laying of
the mains, was in not having expert
agents to see that the mains were lined,
bedded and covered according to spe—
cifications, especially in applying the
cement outer covering. A year or two
before the decease of the late “Tilliam
Glover, the writer was passing up Main
street while Mr. Glover was making a
connection with the water main from,
or near Mr. C. S. Lockwood’s building,
and at Mr. Glover’s request went down
in the pit and found, as he stated, that
the cement covering, which should
have been three-fourths of an inch in
thickness, was less than one-eighth of
an inch thick. If an expert had been
employed of course no such work would
have been allowed. It is the opinion
of the writer that other positions on the
line of main and latterals were equally
glossed over, which will account for the
frequent breaks in the pipes, which are
caused by the rusting out of the sheet-
iron shell, owing to the scant quantity
of cement used in covering. If the
proper amount of cement covering had
been used, it is probable that no break
would have occurred where there has
been ten. *

An Important Omission.
Mrs. Williams had never been satisfied
with the‘ arrangement of her old house,
and so, when her husband proposed to
build anew one she said she would like to
draw the plans; then she should be sure
that she would have enough closets and
other conveniences.
Mr. Williams said, “Certainly, my dear,
you draw the plans, and then you can have
Jones look them over and see that they are
practicable. "
“Of course they’ll be practicable, and it
will be only a matter of form for Mr. Jones
to pass approval on them,” said his wife
confidently.
The plans were made and remade, al-
tered and realtered, until at last they gave
Mrs. \Villiams perfect satisfaction. There
were enormous closets at every turn, and
open fireplaces wherever there was a
chance i'oronc. and with a sigh of relief
she started for Mr. Jones’ ollicc.
\thn she displayed the plan of the first
floor she was much gratified at the archi-
tect’s evident approval. and although he
seemed on the point of asking: some ques-
tion ones or twice. he did not do so, and in
triumph she spread out the plan of the
second floor.
“\Vhat do you think of that?“ she asked
in the tone of one assured of a pleasant an-
S\Y€I'.
“Charming, my dear madam. charming!”
said the suave Mr. Jones; “l;u‘.-—-.‘i'.1—oh—

The “Fork of the Snow.
Snow has several curious methods of ex-
tending the sphere of its hostile influence.
The comparatively light snows which fall
in our latitude are of minor importance,
since they readily yield to the early spring
sunbeams. They are in some degree bene—
ficial to the fertile surface and protective
to its more tender annual plants, while
their only important adverse effect is the
dangerous flooding of the rivers, due to
their rapid melting. But the deep and
persistent snows Of northern regions are
far more exhaustive of solar heat, and re-
duce the agricultural season of these re-
gions to a dangerously short period. In
their melting, also, the surface air is
chilled, and winds from the north convey
this chilled air far to the south, thus
spreading widely over the warmer zones
the frost inducing influence of the melting
snows.
“7e have seen how the tropic heats are
carried toward the poles by winds and
waters. The frigid cold is carried toward
the tl'Oblcs by the same agencies—chilled
winds and cold ocean currents. It is car-
ried by :inol her agent of great importance,
the direct creep of the snow itself toward
the lower latitudes. This agency has once
—perhnp,—: many times—~—pr0duced an ex-
truordinury effect upon the surface of the
earth, one for surpassing that of volcanic
explosions and lava outflows in its adverse
influence. .\t present this glacial action is
greatly reduced, but is still of much im-
portance. —— Charles Morris in Popular
Science Monthly.
Food in Paris During the Siege.
I am astonished to read ina high class
French review that there was really “nc
perceptible lack of food in Paris- during
the siege.” \Vcll, well! methinks I know
something about that period, and I- have
kept a few records of the ghastly time, so
I take down from a shelf a book—with the
dust of twenty dead and gone years upon
it, “eheu! fugaces labuntur anni”—and
what do I find therein? This: Salt pork
fetched £1 per pound; ham £2; butter was
£2 8s. 4d. per pound; Gruyere cheese £1
53.; a hen cost £2 55., a goose £6, a turkey
£4 125., a duck £1 155. These were, ordi-
nary diet in ordinary times, but if we re-
gard other things we shall see that big
prices were put on articles not generally
considered as tasty.
A crow was worth 53., arat 2s. 6d., horse-
fiesh was 15s. per pound, sparrows 10d.
each, and the elephants from the Jardin
des Plantes were also about 153. a pound.
A liter of potatoes cost 45.; acaulifiower
123. (5d; a cabbage the same; eggs were
scarcely obtainable, and, when procured,
were worth 23.6(1. Cats were sold at £1
each; onlons-—perhaps to make a savory
ragout with pussy-were £3 43. 2d. per
bushel; a cwt. of wood was 105., and the
same of coal 12s. 6d. A pretty perceptible
“lack of food” this, I think.——Galignani

Secretary Noble Has a Powwow with
the Big Indians.
VARIOUS REFORMS URGED.
American Horse ‘Vould Like to Have
Indians Appointed to the Clerkships,
Efalfbreeds “Placed.”
The Government’s Generosity.
and Wants
VVASHINGTON, Feb. 9.-—Secretary Noble
had a long powwow with the Sioux Indian
delegation at the interior department Sat-
urday» about the recent Pine Ridge trou-
bles.
John Grass, American Horse and Young-
Man-Afraid—o.’i—His—Horses talked. Secre-
tary Noble made a short address to the
Indians through the Rev. C. T. Cook, of
the Pine Ridge agency, who acted as in—
terpreter. The secretary reminded the In-
dians at the outset that the government
had kept its promises made at the time of
the agreement with the Sioux and had
listened to their complaints. There had
been serious trouble since, and now they
had come again to see the Great Father,who
the secretary assured them wanted to do
anything he could to make them contented.
He admonished them to tell short stories,
and then he would listen to them all.
John Grass Charges Breach of Faith.
John Grass was the first and principal
speaker. He spoke in a very deliberate
manner and his interpreter’s words were
closely listened to. He attributed the re—
cent trouble among those Indians to the
Messiah craze. They did not want to be
driven into a wilder life on account of this
trouble and had come for instruction and
the co-operation of the Great Father. He
said promises had been made to them only
to be broken. He urged the secretary here-
after to appoint the young Indians to the
minor positions at the agency. He did not
want any military authority at Standing
Rock. The Indians were satisfied that the
agents were honest and wished civil offi-
cers to have charge of Indian aff‘airs.
American Horse Urges Indian Clerks.
American Horse was the next speaker.
He said that it would be two or three
months before a satisfactory settlement
of the trouble was reached. His people
had been anxious to follow in the road
that the Great Father had marked out, but L
the recent trouble had thrown tlrenr back
fifteen years. He knew that it was the ef-
fort of the government to civilize them,
but it had made mistakes and civilization
would be impossible until these mistakes
were corrected.
appoint Indians as clerks, etc. , at the vari-
ous agencies. They should have the right
to name the agents or be given a voice in
their selection, and it could not confer a.
greater favor upon them by appointing in-
telligent Indians to minor places. Young
men who eloped with Indian women, he
said, should be. compelled to marry them.
He wanted the imaginary line between the
Rosebud and Pine Ridge agencies entirely
done away with, for the reason that it had
been the cause of much uncertainty and
trouble. Their rations had been reduced
and many of them were hungry, so that it
was not strange that they lost their senses
and were unable to control themselves
during the recent trouble. He \ wanted the
position of the halfbreeds defined, as they
were neither white, black, nor Indian;
they were the worst sufferers of the fight.
The Carlisle (Pa.) school should be trans-
ferred to Dakota, as the climate of the east
did not agree with the Indian.
Hump Says They “’ere Starved.
Youn g—Man—Afraid-of—HisfHorses made a
few remarks, but said he preferred to re— ,
serve his time for Monday. Two-Strikes
followed with the statement that he had
made peace with Gen. Miles, whom he
would see Monday and then present his
views fully. Hump, of the Cheyenne river
agency, complained that no crops had been
raised for the past three years. He had lost
many of his people, who, he said, were
starved and then killed. He wanted the
thirty—two children now at the Standing
Rock agency transferred to the Cheyenne
river agency, where they belonged. High
Cawk and Hollow Horn Beard also made
brief remarks. Medicine Bull, the oldest
Indian in the delegation, said his hand was
clean from the blood of the late fight.
“’liut Uncle Sam Has Done for Them.
This concluded the powwow and then
Secretary Noble spoke to the Sioux, going
over the whole ground. He said he was
here to tell them that he was their friend.
If he had to fight all these Indians they
would be all against him alone, but when
he wanted to shake hands, one was enough
to shake them all. The white people of
this nation were friendly as a body to the
Indians. The secretary read selections
from a work by Miss Fletcher on Indian
matters, showing what the government
had done for them, from which it appeared
that up to the year 1884 the Sioux Indians
had received $42,000,000 from the govern—
ment. The secretary also read a state-
ment contradicting one made by Hollow
Horn Bear in his remarks showing that
from 1877 to 1890 the Indians received 1,401
horses, 13,248 stock cattle for agricultural
purposes, 481 mowers, 101 reapers, 21
threshers, 5,377 plows, 840 h6rse rakes, 1,847
harrows, 3,394 wagons, 5,790 harness, 723
cultivators, and seed that cost the govern-
ment $85,236, the entire amount aggre-
gating $93l,330.‘ A part of this had been
given the Sioux since 1887', including all
the things mentioned, the cost from 1887
to 1890 being $347,881.
They Must Not Attempt Force.
The Great Father, the secretary said, had
done all in his power for them. He must
take care of the white people as well as the
Sioux. Around the Sioux reservation were
many white families living in towns and
cities where lives and property must be
protected. He advised them to be patient
and reasonable. If they did not geta favor
by asking for it they certainly would not
get it by force.
The conference adjourned until Monday,
when the commissioner of Indian affairs
will preside.

No Extra Session Necessary.
\VAsIIINGTON, Feb. 9.——The announce-
ment made in the editorial columns of a
New York newspaper that an extra ses-
sion of the senate was to be called for an
early day after the expiration of the pres-
ent congress seems to be very far from the
truth. There is no prospect of the early
conclusion of a treaty with England,
either about the Behring sea seal fisheries
or anything else, and not much more
chance of the early conclusion of a reci-
procity treaty with Canada. The agree-
ments which Mr. Blaine may make with
the sugar, coffee and hide producing
countries, under the reciprocity section of
the McKinley tariff act, do not need ratifi-
cation by the senate.

would say to the public that we buy goods as low as the lowest, and in.
some cases lower. (This is where the experience comes in.) We have-
never made a statement in print that we did not conscientiously believe to
be afact. When we say that we are going to sell goods‘ AT COST we.
mean the actual cost, and not a fictitious price added on with a view of '
