Water is being wasted to such
an extent and so unnecessarily
that we are obliged to enforce a
strict observance of the rule in re-
fard to hours for sprinkling, viz :
torn 5 to 9 a. m. and from r to 10
o'clock p. m. , and to caution all
users of water to guard against
leaks from faucets or other fix
tures. The continuous tunning of
water through closets or other
fixtures, or permitting hose
streams or spriuklers to run all
night, will be deemed sufficient
cause for shutting the water off
from prvnvaes where allowed
without further notice.

A telegram announces that
Amelie Rives has salied for the
United States where she will
arrive soon after the appearence
of her latest novel in the August
number of the Cosmopolitan
After nearly two years of silence
the new story of Miss Rives will
be received with the greatest in
terest by those who enjoy her
earlier work. Married, travelled
and in every way matured, her
latest production is said to be
worthy of the talent which gave
such great promise. The scene
is laid in Paris where the author
has been living for two years, and
the beorine is a Virginia girl who
is studying music abroad with a
negro servant for a chaperone.
The story has been illustrated by
Kate Greatorex, one 01 tne most
promising of American painters in
Paris, and a charming portrait of
Miss Rivea is the frontis
piece of the magazine. Two papers
in this number which will be read
1891
with great interest by journalists,
are those bv Valerian Grihayedolf
who is called "the father of
pictorial journalism" and "The
Woman's Press Club of New York"
by Fannie Aymar Matthews.
Gribayedoffhas discussed artisti
cally and practically the question
of the illustration of the daily
newspapers in a way to afford in
formation to all who are interested
in journalism. Anent the baccarat
scandal, Gen. Adam Badeau of
Grant's staff, who was afterwards
secretary of Legation in London
and saw much of the English
aristocracy, writes an article on
"Gambling in High Life." "The
Cukeries," by Pelham-Clinton,
is another article which will please
those who take an interest in the
irreat country houses of England
Thomas A. Janvier, who is always
delightful with bis pen. gives
quaint sketch of the old ducal
town of Uses. To those interested
in education, President Gilman of
the Johns Hopkins furnishes fo.d

neat southern university. The

many of the most noted cartoons

Detroit, Aug. t. To-day closes
the business session of the G. A
R. reunion, but even now the
veterans are leaving the city. No
less thah eight national organ iza
tiona are in session or have ad
journed, and the encampment in
its many innovations certainly has
been the greatest success ot any
preceding one. A sensation was
created by the address of the presi
dent of the National Association of
Union prisoners of the war, E. H
Williams, of Indiana. Referiing
to the treatment accorded ex -pris
oners, the president said : As an
organization, and in view of the
great and peculiar hardships and
sufferings endured as prisoners, we
believe special compensation due
us. For a number of years bills
have been presented in congress
looking to such measures as we
felt due us, but so far all appeals
have availed us nothing, for
twenty-five years our government
has never so much as given us a
vote of thanks for the sacrifice
made." This portion of the presi
dent a address was lormaiiy ap
proved by the association. Among
the re pons of committees made is
one embodying a bill to be. pre'
sented at the next session of con
grass on behalf of soldiers who
were in prison (or a period ot not
less than sixty davs or more, pro
iding they shall receive $2 lor

The association will hold its next
meeting in Chicago.
Immediately after the meeting
of the encampment this morning,
the election of commander-in-chief
was declared the first busi
ness. It was announced that New
York had united on Colonel John
Palmer for commander-in-chief,
but Colonel rveissert s lriends re
lied on the encampment going to

victory for a candidate from the
West. When tbe time finallvcauie

Syracuse. N. Y., August 6.
This morning a freight train on
the West Sltore railroad, going
west, broke in two between Port
Byron and Montezuma, aid a fast
train following crushed lnioine
tear end. A brakenian who went
back toward the passenger train
was killed. Eleven Italians en
route to Niagara Falls in the smok
ing car were killed, end eleven
others in the same car were in'
jured: Some" of them -will preh
ably die. The sleeping cars were
burned, and it is supposed nearly
all the passengers were rescued.
The injured were brought here
and are being cared for. The
bodies of the killed are at Port
Byron, where the coroner will hold
an inquest. Among the injured
was a member of an opera com
pany, who died on the way here,
Trainmen say there are more
killed in the wreck. Physicians
and others have been sent from
Syracuse. A'uburn, Montezuma
and Port Byron. The scene at tbe
wreck was a terrible one.
Of the eleven Italians injured,
four will probably die. They were
in the smoking car of the 8t.Louis
express, which crashed into the
freight train. Twelve cars o! the
freight train were wrecked and
piled up on the track, completely
blocking the road. Hardly a
whole piece of timber is left In the
smoking car. The wreck took
tire and the passenger train was
burned, with the exception of
three sleeping cars. The train
was made up of two express cars,
a baggage and a smoking car, a
day coach and four sleeping cars.
J. J. Sullivan, of this city, was on
t he train. He was in the car be
hind the smoker. Regarding the
accident, he said: "The freight
tram with which oar train col
lided was running on the passen
ger train time. When tbe crash
came, the scene was a terrible one
The smoking car was smashed to
iplinters, and the shrieks of the
wounded and imprisoned in the
wreckage were heartrending. The
accident occurred at three o'clock,
When I left, the dead and
wounded were scattered about on
the ground inside the tracks, and
the surviving passengers were
doing all they could for the relief
of the wounded. The victims, so
tar as I could see. were all men
ho were in the smoking car,
None of the passengers in sleeping
ars were lnjureu.
New York, August G. A West
Shore official says from what can
be learned there is no doubt the
accident this morning was the re
sult of the neglect of the conduc
tor of the freight tram to send
back a flagman to work trains
moving on tbe same track.

Rkdiuno, August 6. Tuesday
evening, when the outgoing lted-

about three miles from town, it
was stopped by two highwaymen,
The robbers demanded the express
box, from which they secured
about $50. The one passenger on
board was robbed of $12 and a
silver watch. The stage then pro
ceeded, and no news was brought
to town until the next morning by
the incoming stage. The express
box was smashed, but tbe mail
bags were not touched, showing
that the robbers were new at the
business. Nothing has been
heard of them yet.
