By an act of the Legis- lature Mazy 1, 1872, there s the nearest approach to the definition of a miner's inch as applied in California. It is that the claimant of water must declare in his notice “‘that he claims the water there flowing to the extent of (giving the num- r of fnches) inches measured u ‘er a inch pressure.” James D. Schuyler, As ant Engineer, in the report of the State Engineer of California to the Leg- islature, session of 1880, gives thc mathe- matical equivalent of an inch of water as “0.0199 of a cubic foot per second. That Is 1.197 cubic feet per minute or 8.954 gal- lons per minute. - POLL TAX—K. T: M., City.

IMPORTING ~ STEREOTYPERS PUBLISHERS WILL BOYCOTTTHE LOCAL UNION. Milwaukee Newspapers Sent to the Lake City on a Special Train and Rapidly Dis- posed Of. Special Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, July 3.—The situation be- tween the striking stereotypers and the publishers of Chicago remains practi- cally unchange., and probably no Chi- cago paper will publish before Tuesday morning, at the earliest. The publishers had a conference this afternoon, when it appeared that the number of stereotypers on the way from various parts of the country was | very satisfactory. It was determined, however, that no attempt to issue to- | morrow would be made. The publish- ers are confident that by to-morrow evening they will be sufficiently well equipped to resume publication Tues- day, but with the papeys somewhat re- duced in size. A committee from the Pressmen's Union waited on the publishers to-day, asking for an opportunity to act as a committee of conciliation, but the pub- | lishers refused absolutely to have any- | thing to do ith the Stereotypers’ Union in any w hereafter, declaring that none of its members would be per- mitted to work in any of their offices again. A special train from Milwaukee, over the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul | road, came in to-night bringing extra | editions of Milwaukee evening papers | to partially supply the demand of read- | ers. The run was made in one hour and | thirty-ive minutes, nearly a mile a | minute, and the papers were disposed of | to eager citizens almost as soon as they | appeared on the street.

The fire rapidly spread, running in the dry grass and extending over a mile from the place where it began. The people from all around turned out to fight the flames | and it was only by the greatest efforts | that they saved the remainder of the town | and kept the fire from destroying many farm houses and barns of hay and grain.

WAR NEWS AT THEATERS. Sampsen and the First California Enthusiastically Cheered. The news of Sampson’s demolition of Cervera's fleet was received with wild enthusiasm at the theaters. The Call’s bulletins were read from the various stages and caused intense excitement. At the Chutes there were over a thou- sand soldiers in the audience and when the announcement of the glorious vie- tory was received the boys in blue howled themselves hoarse. They threw their caps in the air, hugged each other and danced around in a maddened enthusiasm. At the California Theater an Ameri- can flag was lowered from the flies with Sampson’s portrait attached, and Miss Minnie Dreyfous sang the “Star Spangled ‘Banner” froi the gallery. The audience arose and joined in the chorus, which was led by Rhys Thom- as. the “Uncle Tom"” of the cast. The Orpheum and Morosco's were packed and the news caused a pande- minium of delight. At the Tivoli Ed Stevens invited the audience to sing the “Star Spangled Banner” and the invitation was eagerly accepted. The patriotic production of “Fort Frayne” at the Columbia was particularly apro- pos and the packed house applauded the news. —_——— Are They Worthy of Their Sires “Are America's Sons Worthy of Their Sires?” was the inte subject of a lecture delivered last even- ing by the Rev. J. Stephens before a large congregation at the Simpson Memorial Episcopal Church, of which he Is pastor. The preacher drew a well defined parallel between the revolutionary and the pre: ent war, closely linking the soldicr of to- day with the soldier of '76. In the course of the lecture the preacher touched upon the subject of Independence D: v, out- lining the ne ity of a universal dele- bration of the nation's natal day. “Seldom, if ever,” he said, ‘‘will the nation see such a demonstration of patri otism as will be held to-morrow through- out the entire Union. . re just be- glnning to realize the meaning of the Dec- laration of Independence, and understand the principles upon which it is foundea.

Although every outward indication to- day will- point to a general and appro- ;])rla(e observance in commemoration of the lon, there are many faults to be considered. T..e members of the Street Committee of the Board of Supervisors, | whose duty it is to advocate and procure the necessary appropriation for the equip- ment of the public parks with flags and staffs, have failed to do so either from negligence or direct motive. The parks that are provided with flags can boast of | nothing more than ragged apologies of the national emblem.
