Waterworks Again. At the Town Board meeting Monday night, J. A. Heaton & R. Lockwood, Lafayette parties, made a proposition to establish a system of waterworks in Rensselaer. The conditions of the proposition Is for the Board to grant the company a 50 years franchise; and to agree to take for the use of the town 35 or 40 firC hydrants, at an annual rental of $45 per hydrant, or from $1,500 to SI,BOO in all, to be paid each year to the company by the town for water for fire protection. For the balance of their revenue the company would, of course, look to private consumers of the water. It is further offered that if, at any time after the waterworks are completed, the town desires to purchase them, the company will bind itself to sell at 10 per cent, advance over the actual first cost of the plant. They propose to put in a very complete system, with combined stand-pipe and direct pressure, with a capacity of half a million gallons, daily. The cost of the system is estimated at $40,000. The maximum rate to private consumers will be $lO per year for the first faucet, $3 for the second; and #2 for each more than two. The Town Board has the lawful right to grant such a franchise as is j here asked for, but there is con•iderable reluctance to take such a step in advance of any knowledge of the wishes of our people. It is a patter that should be carefully con.
sidered; and demands the earnest consideration of our people. To consider this matter, the Board will hold a special me ling, the first Monday night in October, being October 7tb, at the Town Hall, and it is the desire of the Board that citizens who take an interest in this matter, will be present at this meeting to advise the Board of their wishes 1 And so Peffer is going to see to it that any futher bonds issued by the secretary of the treasurv of the United Spates are rapudiated. He is almost as funny as Artemus Ward, who once offerd to liquidate our national debt —Boston Herald
HE HAD NERVE
L 4 He Proved the Possession of it to the Passengers’ Satisfaction. Bill Henderson was driver on the Los Angeles, Santa Ana and San Biego stage line for twenty-one years. Foi years he drove eight horses and often ten. The railroads have deprived the 6tage lines of their bunlness, and Uncle Bill, like others of his calling, has gone Into retirement His tales of adventure are seemingly without limit. One of the stories he tells is as follows: “One trip we had a new driver who was going up the road to take his place. He was a handsome young fellow, who. from his unusual height was called Lanky Jim. He was a skillful relnsutan, but was cool and cautious, and took no desperate chances, as some of the drivers did. On reaching the break-Ing-in station we thought we would have a little fun at his expense, so I asked him to take the ribbons. He gathered up the lines, shouted to turn them loose, and away we went It was a wild ride for a mile or tv/o, and then he tried to hold up, but this the pas seugers objected to. “ ‘Turn ’em loose; this ain’t a hearse,’ shouted a big-nosed man. “ ‘Give them the silk,’ yelled a drummer. “ ‘Give Charley the ribbons,’ cried a miner.
“He stood it pretty well till I, too, began poking fun at him, when he cried: “ ‘Gentlemen, I can drive as fast as any one,’ and with this he suddenly leaned forward, and before I could imagine what he intended to do threw the Hnes out of his hands to the ground and began whipping his horses. Run? If you ever saw a team run those horses did that day. The coach rolled to and fro till I thought a dozen times it would tip over, yet that fellow stood up in his seat plying the silk and shouting: ‘Turn 'em loose; this ain’t no hearse!’ ‘Don’t put on the brakes’’ ‘Give the ribbons to Charley!’ and other expressions we had used. Fortunately for his neck, and aura, there was not a stick or stone, not a rock, clod or rut In the whole valley, or we would have struck something and tipped over. About a mile from the other station there was a stretch of sand, and here the norses had to stop their run. The moment they Bowed down Into a trot a dozen of us sprang from the coach and caught up the lines, thus stopping the team. As we handed him the lines he gathered them up as coolly as you please and only said: “ ‘Gentlemen, did we ride fast enough?’ There was no more attempt to try his' nerve.”
A Faintly Dies In an Hour.
A correspondent of Johannesburg. Africa, sends a ghastly message concerning a series of fatalities whereby e resident lost his whole family In the space of an hour. Three children left ihe house to go to tneir father, a fanner, who was in a field near the house. The three put their hands In a crevice of the rocks to obtain birds’ eggs. In this crevice was a deadly snake, whlc’j hit all the three. Two of them died before* the third could get home to tell the mother what had happened. The mother, frantic with grief, tried to lift the third child on a horse to gallop sot help. She pushed him too far; he fell over on the other side, fractured his skull and died Instantly. The mother re-entered the house and found a fourth child had fallen Into the bath and been drowned. The whole fam. ily died within one hour.

A Famous Set of Dishes.
The most famous set of dishes in the world is in t’ e White House. It was begun by Martha Washington and completed by Mrs. Harrison, who decorated with her own hands enough p ece <to finish out the missing numbors The largest addition to the set was made by President Arthur, and was paid for out of his private purse and Mrs. Cleveland, during her first term as first lady in the land, presented to the White Roue a few very large pieces, which had been given 1 1 her i s w dding gifts, evidently with t: e ide i that they Wvuld remain in the Pre ident's house. a£ ’.hey were far t' c large to be used upon an ordinary private table.
