Water is being wasted to such
an extent aud so unnecessarily
that we are obliged to enforce a
stiict observance of the rule in re
gard to hours for sprinkling, viz :
Fiom 5 to 9 a. m. and from 0 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
stream or sprinklers to run all
night, will be deemed sutlicient
caV'ise for shutting the water off
from promises where allowed

ironclads, 'resident rinto ana r

The Old Fight Oyer Again.
Dktroit. Aug. 10. Great excite'
ment prevailed at Windsor, Can
ada, Saturday evening. Citizens
who have a leaning toward Ainer
ican principles and government
decorated their places of business
in honor ol tbeurand Army ot tne
Republic celebration in this city.
Minister of Militia uaron was
telegraphed bv the Windsor roy
alists, who were wrathy because
the Canadians made so much ot
what thev termed the "d d Amer
icanism," and requested that he
instruct the authorities at Windsor
to remove the decorations. This
order was telegraphed to Windsor,
and the aid of the Essex county
fusiliers had to be called upon
When the Windsor Americans
saw the law was imperative and
that they must obey, the flags
were removed, but not until sev
eral squabbles, in which stones,
etc., were hurled, had occurred.

The Clerks of London,
London, August 10. The re
cently formed union of London
clerks made a brave show in Hyde
Park vesterdav. They went there
to protest against long hours and
other grievances. Many women
marched in the procession, which
was very respectable. The places
of the clerks are so easily tilled
that until recently they were
afraid to form a union for fear of
general discharge, but learning
tli at they bad not only the sym
pathy of the public but also the
good will of many emoloyers, who
were willing to do better if all
employes were on an equal footing
me union was lormea. J no rain
had a dampening effect, but the
speeches were none the less eiu
phatic, as well as reasonable.
Mattel In the Irish Factions.
London, Aug. 10. The situation
of the Irish party does not seem to
improve with Dillon and O'Brien
out of prison. O'Brien maintains
comparative seclusion, and Dillon
who was willing at liret to be air
gressive against Parnell, has, it is
said, almost concluded not to take
a share in the struggle between
the two factions. The reported
scandal in the family of an Irish
member of parliament opposed to
Parnell will probably not come
before the pnblic. The first wife
is said to have accepted the oiler
ed compromise, and will maintain
the reticence on the subject which
she has maintained for years.

A. LODGING HOUSE BURNED.
Many Parsons Seriously Injured
J ampin From Third 8Urj Win-dowi-Tks
oaffsrtri.
Si'okanb, Aug. 10. At 3:30 this
morning hre was discovered in
Conway's lodging house, corner
becond and Mill. Before an en
gine arrived tne building was a
mass of flames and the inmates
were fleeing for their lives. All
the guests but one have been ac
counted for. The hook and ladder
truck was immediately called into
use to save tne lives of the in
mates. Charles Johnson, Mrs.
Conway's brother, was taken out
through a second story window,
lie had been suffocated to death.
His face was burned almost be
yond recognition. He was a terri
ble sight.
Just across from him on the east
side of the building was a negro
named Washington. His hands
and arms were terribly burned, fie
will die.
A man named Green jumped
from a third story window and is
injured internally. He can hard
ly recover.
J. H. Dwver jumped from a
third story window. His injuries
were a broken arm.
Several others jumped from
third story windows and escaped
unhurt.
The lire is supposed to have
been of incendiary origin. There
seemed to be no person whose duty
it was to attend to the sufferers,
and, as they lay on the street,
their groans added to the panic of
the crowd.
OOIMU WRONG.
A Wayward Girl Creates 1 Com-
notion In Seattle.
Seattle, August 10. X. Sil-
bonn, an acrobat employed at the
Palace theater, fell from his
trapeze to the theater floor, a dis
tance of twenty feet, on his head,
and it is thought he sustained
Utal injuries. The accident oc
curred this morning. The injured
man was taken to his room on
Jackson street.
Complaint was made at the
police headquarters to-dav by Mrs.
Dr. Barnes, who lives on Third
street, near Spring, that her
laughter lela, 14 years old, had
iieen mismng from her home since
the dav before at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon. It was suspected that
a certain cigar dealer on Front
street as interested in the girl's
disappearance and Otlicer Foster
was detailed to hunt up the girl
1 he mother had previously seen
the runaway girl on nest street,
near Cedar street and the otlicer
immediately began searching
along West and Water streets.
