4 ee THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON: sis sss... September 4, 1891. THE EVENING STAR bas a regular Dermanent circalation in Washington three times larger than that of any ether paper fm the elty. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medium it has ne competitor. New York is watching with interest the in- vestigations the chemists of her board of health are making in the Croton watershed, the source of the city’s water supply. Some of the newspapers had been over a part of the field end had found it fruitful in matter for sharp criticism. The pollutions found by the official mspeecors in the east branch of the Croton are ‘Startling, especially when the season is consid- ered; and it is believed that other parts of the Watershed will show a similar state of things New York's water is drawn through two Breat aqueducts from Croton Inke, an exten- ton of Croton river, and which is fed by sev- eral small streams. The water-supply of every city is the most important conside of ite citizens. The trouble in Washington has been an insufficient supply in certain parte of the city, but the discoloration of the Potomac Water at times of fod hus often formed a topic of discussion, and various plans to ob ate the difficulty have been mooted, some of which have recently been considered in Tue Sian —--—_ += Since the decisive battles near Valparaiso the Mannlicher rifle, which figured largely in the success of the congressionalists, comes into prominence. All in one second thereare three movements—a bolt is slid back, throwing the empty cartridge out; a second motion replaces the bolt and slips « cartridge into the chamber from the magazine; a third motion pulls the trig- ger. The magazine is beneath the barrel. One of the bullets has been sent through the frontal bone of an ox’s head into itsbody. The perfora- tiunis small. Thegelbiteexplosive used isalmost smokeless. Great improvements are going on ali the while in military arms, both small and lazge, and there is the greatest difficulty in keeping up with the changes and proposed changes. eis The great question of what will our girls do with themselves is settling itself. While many are fitting themselves at Vassar, Wellesley and other colleges “'mid walks of the angels and ways of the moon” for the learned professions and the literary life, still others are, like w young West Virginian locomotive engincer of present newspaper fame, embarking in practi- eal pursuits in which men have hitherto had » strict monopoly. When young women man our street cars as conductors and direct otr locomotives as engineers, or our steamboats as eaptains—and the American people have had one or more examples of each of these—maga- zine writers will have one subject less to dis- cuss. eo —___—_—_ A bathing beach, whether on a river, a bay or the marge of the sea, should be provided with every possible appliance for saving life. ‘There ought certainly to be watchmen sta- tioned in the water, and not on the shore, ex- cept for police purposes if there should be a great rush, as was the case yesterday at the opening of the Potomac bathing beach. With @ number of watchmen in the water among the numerous and eager swimmers it is hardly pos- sible for any one to be drowned. ‘The death of the two youths on the very opening day ought to be a warning to last as long as the beach is used as a bathing plac email ee Sees Atlength Germany becomes satistied with our inspection laws and admits our pork. See- retary Kusk bas been unremitting in his efforts in this bebalf and has reason to feel happy over his victory. It will be good news on both sides of the ocean. The German people have never been much frightened at the bugaboo of imaginary American swine diseases. Just at present, with a searcity of bread threatening them, the people over there will welcome the wholesome and nutritious Yankee porker with doubled enthusiasm. ———<—r+2___ Gov. Pattison’s friends seem to have taken good care to let all the praise of Mr. Cleveland uttered in the Pennsylvania democratic com veation take the form of airy speeches. For the first time in years the democrats in state convention bave failed to “indore” the author of the famous tariff messages. Is Mr. Pattison so much “‘in it” that he begrudges a little ink te enable the ex-President to get in it, too? No matter whether the appropriation is too small for the purpose or not, the garbage must be removed. Of course the health officer will do everything in his power to thatend. It ts no time for half-way measures. If the work be not speedily aud thoroughly done, the safety of the population will be in jeopardy. —- ss ‘The Italian government is now giving its at- tention to a matter that is worthy of its serious consideration. It has viewed with dismay the departure of its art treasures to other countries, and its prohibition of the sale shows that it going to take active steps to prevent all threat- ened depletion of its greatest treasures. How to do this without injustice to the owners of pictures or statuary is a problem thut is worthy ‘the brain of any Italian statesman. It means the protection of what gives Italy her chief im- portance among the nations of the world. Professor Thomas E. Euison’s latest sugges- tion is the most stupendous of any be has made. He says that by surrounding a moun- tain of magnetic ore with wire, it would be pos- sible to hear sounds from the san. It would be going to a good deal of trouble merely for the sake of hearing « loud noise. : — Only two pictures of Balmaceda have been observed in circulation through the newspa- pers of this country and both seemed to be of the “inspired” type. One (doubtless set afloat by the congressional party) makes him look like a pirate who had just spilt a daily allowance of gore, while the other shows a mild, studious countenance that beams with gentle refine: ment. Balmaceda isa wonderfully, hard man-| tw get acquainted with. see Washington welcomes today the Sovereign Couneil of the Sons of Jonadab the more cor- cially Leeause ite members come from the city and its vieinity, the states of Maryland, Vir- @nia and West Virginia. = ——————— Some Omata people are finding fault because the city pay roll is so large and the services rendered so small. A city official who idled and did no worse would be very welcome in some of the towns that are mourning over depleted treasuries. : ~ oe Tekiog instantaneous pictures of young womea in bathing costumes for pubiicetion form of Journalistic eak-thieving that is intolerable.
