telegraph poles , and backed a load up
to the bank of Indian creek by the side
of K. H. Waterman's new building.
When he arrived at the edge he forgot
to stop , and wagon , horses , and all went
down twenty feet into the creek. Aside
from breaking a few straps and the
coupling polo of the wagon , there was
no damage done. Judging from Smith's
personal appearance , he must have
landed upon his nose. Ho was lucky to
escape so easily.

WORKINGS OF WATER WORKS ,
A Trip Over the City to V16w Its

1'nre Water.
Through the courtesy of Manager
Blrkinbine a representative of the BKI :
was taken over the city and bhown the
workings of the water works s.\ stem , -and
inasmuch as the facts exhibited are of
interest to the general public they are
herein given.
When the waterworks company took
the contract to furnish this city with an
adequate supply of pure water from the
Missouri river the public thought the
the thing could not be done. It was
not suppo-ed possible to take the water
af the "Big Muddy" and cleanse it so as
to make it lit for use. A scheme was
llrst devised to purify this water. No
artificial means could be employed
which would do the work and it was de
cided to do it by natural means i. e. pre
cipitation and evaporation. The law
that water will purify itself by llowinga ,
certain distance was fully and admira
bly demonstrated.
The place at which the water was to
betaken from the river was located about
a mile above the pumping works. A
conduit , or ditch , wa.s dug connecting
these two points. This is large enough
to carry the full supply , even should the
consumption bo much grater than it
now is. At the head of the conduit
stands the conduit engine , the pumping
capacity of which is 15,000 gallons per
minute. The suction pipe extends into
the channel of the river and only ' 'live
water" is taken up by the engine. On
account of the treacherous banks , which
are liable to slough ott at any place and
without warning , it was impossible to
put a permanent building here , and the
house which covers this portion of the
works is of the most temporary charac
ter. It is of wood , constructed in sec
tions , and hooked together so that ,
should the necessity occur , the whole
thing can be taken down in a very short
time and placed at some other point. A
lake of considerable si/.o is being formed
near the pumping work's. Here the
water received from the conduit comes
to a stand still and piecipitation is very
rapid. From here the surface water
passes into a "pump mill , ' ' from which
it is taken to the two reservoirs situ
ated south of the works. These contain
(1,000,000 ( gallons each. From here the
motor is pumped through mains into the
immense supply reservoir in Prospect
park , with a capacity of 4,000,000 gallons
lens , from where by gravity pressure it
is distributed to consumers all over the
city. It will bo observed that at the
lake , the well , and the settling r.eser-
voirs the surface water only is taken.
Thus the sediment is left behind and
when necessary it can b'o taken away.
By this method of purilication the con
sumer gets pure water.
From a personal inspection of many
of the cities situated on the largo rivers
of the west , as well as the east , the
writer is safe in saying that no better
water is had anywhere , except it be
taken from the potsdam sandstone by
artesian wells ; and in the matter of
purity the comparison is favorable to
the water wo have.
The "works" contain three engines
and four boilers which have a
capacity of 7,000,000 gallons per
day. As the present consump
tion is only 1.700,000 gallons it wlr-
bo seen that all the reasonable piVsiljRi.
lies of the future as to the growth of the
city , etc. , are amply covered. About
twenty-live miles of pipe are'"now laid ,
over 'one mile having been jmt dowiui
during the past year. Two hundred and
one hydrants are distributed throughout
the city , and the best and most complete
fire protection is secured. Every pipe
lias been tested rt 300 pounds
pressure , which is more tin n double the
amount required to do the work they
have yet had to do. At u recent test of
u hydrant on Park avenue , the register
showed a pressure of 135 pounds , which
is equivalent to an altitude of 800
Tins demonstrates the sulliciency of the
system , for every house within the city
limits can be reached , with pressure for
its full protection.
Now the reader may ask , "For all this
are not the water-works company re
ceiving ample pay ? " In the matter of
rates , yes. The people are paying all
they can afford and enough to get the
best service ; but the company have not ,
as yet , received a cent in dividends.
The establishment of such u system
looks to the future for its pay , but it will
be some time yet before this company
receive even the average per cent , re-
uli/.ed from other investments of a pri
vate character involving the amount of
capital hero invested.

A Kjiloy la-tier From California.
The following extracts from a lettoi
to friends in this city , from one of tin
many credulous invalids who hav <
sought relief and a renewal of forme :
_
health in the much extolled atmosphere
of California , although not original ! ;
designed lor publication , will furnish i
few facts to the readers of the Biii : tha
may be of interest and future use :
"Dear L I am getting rested and i
little used to dust and climate , but i
nearly got mo down at first.
I will not got the good I wished fron
the climate , for I despise all I've seoi
west of Kansas. Nothing but glarini
sun and sand heaps , with Hies as numcr
ous as the grains of sand , by day , am
cold and "skeetors" by night. Uncl
Joe and others used to say , "Can't tuk
re cold in California. Lie on the grouin
anywhere. " You can Ho , not on th
Ih ground , but on sand , and the other par
is one of the worst lies over told ,
know , myself , and have been told repeatedly
poatedly by Californians , that one take
id cold easier here , and it lusts longei
isa than anywhere else.
a Wo got here when what they term
v- "norther , " hud just sot in. The win
cornea through thc.pass in the mom
ne tains , north , comes over the desert , an
the air is full of sand , us you over sa' '
It , of snow. A man can't drive facin |
these "northers. " They lust aboi
three days. The nil"become ? hot , and
everything burning up. We have seen
scon lwu.in Iho three weeks that'we
have been here.
There is no place on earth that is
landed like California. li is HOMO prin
cipally by real estate agents. This
plaeo. lias one dry good" store , two gro
ceries , one bakery , and forty real estate
agents. 'They ' meet you at the train ,
most large-hearted fellows "We don't
wait for introduction * in California. "
take you riding , and show you their
list. \ ( you say , "No money , " they say ,
"Good day. "
The only good that can come to any
body here' , is the constant outdoor life
thai he can lead in a nfly atmosphere.
Hut it N bilious here , and in the sum
mer the days arc exceedingly hot , and
the nights are very cool. I can see
little health in such extremes in twen
ty-four hours. 1 am going to Los An
geles in the morning , to get f-omething
for my throat. I am nearly choked all
'
the li'ino.
H is barely possible that a few years
in this climate might do you good , but I
will not influence you to come. If I was
well I would not stay hero twelve hours
longer. Perhaps I have given you the
dark side. T wish it had been given me.
then I would not have been so disap
pointed. I think that if you can settle
well in Kansas or Iowa you had butter
do to. But if you want to see this coun
try , now is u good opportunity.Vo pay
$112 per month for a room and J ! ) per
week for board.
It seems to mo that there is more sick
ness here than in any placu of its size in
Indiana. Not simply invalids who have
come here , but the stout and apparently
able-bodied. Some of our friends left
pleasant homes in the east , and are liv
ing here without comforts and wishing
for the homes they have left , yet pos
sessing hero an abundance of climate ,
for they have forty steps of stairs be
tween earth and home , and have to
"climb it" for daily food. Write soon.
L.
There is certainly food for reflection
in the above letter , and parties who in
tend to dispose of their stock of this
world's goods in this part of the moral
vineyard , and seek that priceless boon ,
health , in that 'wonderful Eden"oa the
Pacific coast , will do well to pursue their
investigations a little farther before
making a change. There are many sec
tions of the country that arc now being
"boomed" for all they are worth , and
ncarlv every not thus spread catches its
full share of "suckers. " It is but a few
days since a covered wagon drawn by a
yoKc of antiquated oxen passed through
the city in an easterly direction. A few
months ago the same wagon , drawn by
four line mules , passo'il along the same
road in the opposite direction. On the
outward trip the promised land was
soon in anticipation , through the eyes
of the real estate agent , but on the re
turn they had seen it in reality for
themselves.
On general principles , the real estate
man is doubtless a truthful and honor
able personage , but when it comes to
describing a tract of land , of which ho
has the agency , his veracity may bo
compared to that of a deacon in a horse
trade. But the truth must bo known
sooner or later , and Iowa in general ,
and Council BlulTs in particular , plainly
demonstrates to their citizens that il
they wish to enjoy every advantage ,
natural and artificial , they should re
main whore they are and "let well
enough alone. "

lie Thankful.
This day has been set apart officially
as a day of thanksgiving and praise.
This docs not mean that wo shall bo
thankful officially or that wo shall ren
der our praise through our officials. It
does mean , incidentally of course , that
the average business man would forget
that he had anything to bo thankful for
and would loose his voice for "praise"
entirely if a day were not set apart as a
reminder. Men are rather peculiar. A
horse gets along the year round bearing
its burdens day after day eating its
meals , when its fortunate enough to get
any ; sleeping when its day's work is
done ; and taking little interest in the
matters that otherwise pertain to it. It
recognizes no responsibility ; obeys no
master but its appetite and the whip
and finally lies down to dio. Again
man is peculiar. Ho isn't a horse , and
yet his life is somewhat after the same
order. It is safe to assume that many
> eoplo will cause the necessity that
} orces them to lay aside the business of
the day. A horse gladly welcomes a
playday. No , a man isn't a horso. Other
men never consider the serious side of
lifo and recognize the fact of respon
sibility to any power higher than their
stomachs. A monkey does the sumo.
But man is neither a horse nor a mon
key and yet , what a similarity.
Have you anything to bo thankful for ?
Look over the past year and sec that.
Have you been prospered in business11 !
