From the Congressional Record it appears that on the 16th instant Senator Wilson of Maryland introduced Senate bill No. 2101, to incorporate the Columbia Central railway com- pany, which was read twice by ite title and re- ferred to the committee on the District of Co- lumbia. This billseems to contemplate the location of a steam railroad “entering the southeast corner of the District of Columbia and thence running westerly through the Dis- trict to the East bank of the Anacostia river,” thence across saidriver to the intersection of F and 15th streets northeast in the city of Washington, thence westerly through F street northeast to Maryland avenue, thence through Maryland avenue northeast to Stanton Place, Of the eight corporators named in the bill I know nothing, not even of their residence, but I think they are not residents of this District. The contemplated par or management or ownership of this road is not ap) t and where ‘the southeast corner of the District” can be found is aiso an unsolved problem. But the matter is worthy of public consideration, 8. C. Crarke, —— Relief to South Dakota. In response to an appeal for aid for destitute G.A.R. people in South Dakota the relief com- mittee of Potomac women’s relief corps, auxiliary to the department of the Potomac, G.A.R., will on Saturday and Monday next receive and ship from G.A.R. hall donations of clothing and money to the post commanders at Salem and vicinity to be distributed as needed.

During the latter part of December Tue Star referred editorially to the urgent need of the invention of better modes of egress from burn- ing buildings in view of the horrible loss of life oflate. A Washington man, Mr. Peter M. Brown, has now come to the front with a de- vice intended to pocomptien this object. His invention is a fire-proof stairway built within solid brick inclosing walls adjacent to the front of the building, opening upon tie various floors through fire-proof doors, In order to prevent people in a panic from leaping over the rails a center wall extends from top to bottom. ll doors are to be springed so that there can be no draughts. By an ingenious system of slip joints the walls adjoining the staircase might fall and leave the stairway standing. ———— Election of Officers. The National S, M.

About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon a fire took place in house No. 2123 9th street north- west; damage to house and furniture about $18. No. 7 engine company responded. The house was occupied by J. C. Mitchell and owned by I. Brooks, About the same time about $100 damage was done by fire to house No. 926 26th street, owned by Susan Morgan and occupied by John Berry. About 10:15 o'clock a wood shed on 434 street extended, near the new reservoir, was discov- ered to be on fire, and with its contents—lum- ber, owned by Mr. Peterson, a contractor—was entirely destroyed. About 2 o'clock this morning astable at Whit- ney Close, on 7th-street road, owned by Mr. B. H. Warner and occupied by John Widmayer, were destroyed by fire. There were two wagons, one horse and harness in the building, which were also destroyed. The loss was about $600 and there was no insurance. — Permits to Carry Pistols. Judge Miller has under advisement a propo- sition to add to the proposed law against carry- ing concealed weapons a clause to give permis- sion tocertain persons to carry pistols. It is not the intention of the judge to adopt a rule whereby the general public can avail them- selves of the privilege of the proposed clause, but it is imtended for — persons whose honest and legitimate occupations carry them to dangerous localities at an unusual hour of the night. ‘The question which now puzzles the judge is how to reach a sensible conclusion aud adopt the proper mode of issuing such permits. ‘Ihe proposed rule is designed to apply to newspaper reporters and others who are required to be out all hours of | the night in pursuance of their duties, It has been suggested that the proposed per- mit system be made applicable to persons whose lives have been threatened in order that they may be ready to defend themselves, but, if this is acceded to, the police desire that such permits be issued only on application in open court, —— Good Templars Have a Good Time.

Health Officer Townshend received by mail yesterday the latest reports of mortality statis- ties from the city of Paris, and they exhibit the same large mortality from acute lung discases as in the District of Columbia. For the week ending January 16 the deaths from these causes in that city were 755, while in the week previ- ous they amounted to 978, thus giving a death rate per annum respectively of 17.4 and 22.5 per 1,000 inhabitants.

A Pia 1n 4 Bao.—An old colored man came’ to market the other day and boughta pig. He | put itin a bag and started for his home across the river. Reaching the store at the cross- roads he deposited this burden near the door and went inside to get warm. While he was there some young men took the pig out of the | bag and put a dog in its place. When the old man went out the was moving at a lively rate and he thought the pig had a fit. Upon | examination he found the dog. “Gracious me,” | he shouted, “if de pig ain't done turned into a | dog!” He returned to the store to discuss the miracle. Meanwhile the pig was returned to the bag, when the old man went out again he found it there. “Fo’ God, if dat ain't de fuuniest pig I ever see,” said he. ‘It kin turn into a dog and den turn back I reckon dere muss be somethin’ wrong "bout dat sni- mal, bgt I'se gwine to try him anyhow.

DIVIDENDS PAYABLE APRIL AND OCTOBER 1 AND REMITTED BY CHEQUE ‘The American Water Works Company owns the water works with which the cities of Omaha and South Omabs are supplied, and during the year 1889 ex- pended, in the completion of its new plant and other necessary improvements, the sum of @1,139,336,23. Ou account of this outlay the Company proposes to sell @1,000,000 of its six per cent preferred stock, 210,000 shares of the par value of #100 each, as author- ized sts meeting of stock holders held August 20, 1sse. ANNUAL GROSS EAKNINGS. Increase during last three years $153,217.33, of 119.38 per cent. ANNUAL AVERAGE INCREASE FOR 7 YEARS 31.51 PER CENT. Allowing that the increase for the ensuing year will deonly 25 per cent, the following is an approximate statement for 1890: 49.948 If the increase for the next six years averages only 25 per cent per annum (the average for the past seven Fears having been 31.51 per cent per annum), the THE COMPANY IS NOW EARNING, AT THE RATE OF ABOUT $320,000 PER ANNUM, A SUM MORE THAN SUFFICIENT TO PAY ALL FIXED CHARGES AND THE PREFEKRED S1OCK DIVI- DEND, AND AS THE INCOME MUST CONTINUE TO INCREASE FOK MANY YEARS TO COME THE ABILITY OF THE COMPANY TO MAINTAIN 1BE DIVIDEND CANNOT BE QUESTIONED. NUMBER OF WATER TAKERS. Jan. 1, 1887....... Jan. 1) 1sss Jan, 1) 1 ssi Jan. 1, 1890. Increase in three years, 3,023, or 140.7 per cent, oF an average of 46.9 per cent perannum If the ratio of increase in number of water takers for the next six years averages only 25 percent per annum the result will be as follows: record shows that after water works in large cities have been in operation fifteen years or more the ratio of water takers to population is about 1 to 7. AVERAGE RATIO OF CONSUMERS TO POPULA- TION 1 TO 6.9. The present combined population of Omaha and South Owsha is not less than 140,000. It seems cer- tan, therefore, that in the course of a few years this Company will have 20,000 water takers, even though there is no increase in the population, POPULATION, 11 140,000 ‘The Company, realizing that the old plant, which from 1882 until August last furnished the city with water, would, in consequence of the enormous growth of the city, soon become inadequate, determined to build another plant at Florence, about six miles north of the old pumping station, which would have capac ity tosupply five times the quantity of water now used. This new plant was practically completed Au- gust 1, 188% and formally opened on that date. It ‘bas been constructed in the most substantial mauner at acost of nearly $1,500,000, and it is generally ao- knowledged that Omahs now has the most complete system of water works possessed by any city of less than 400,000 popuistion in the United States. The Missouri river furnishes an inexhaustible sup- ply, and chemical analysis shows the water to be as pure as any city could desire. ‘The history of investments proves that there are no safer securities than those issued for water works under proper conditions, The reasons are obvious, Water is a necessity ; there is and can be no substitute forit. The earnings are permanent and, in growing cities, continually increasing. There are no bad debts, ‘Ro strikes and no competition. The franchise fixes the rates and the city and people must pay for the service, or the fire and domestic supply will be cut off. No enterprise rests upon s more solid basis. The record of the nine hundred private water companies in the United States and of the old companies in Europe sus- tains the statement that no other class of enterprises ‘has been so uniformly successful.
