Ira Heniden in rtcltne. At a conference of state and municipal beards or health held at Washington last Do De ccmlxir, ten prepositions were unanimously agreed te, The first or tliese is, "that all bur-r.ico-wells should 1.0 closed at the carllest pos sible moment." This has special reforence te the surface-wells In clties. Why de these wells dessrve such sweeping condemnation ? We have euly te censider the conditions surretmdini: them, te have a reason sug gested. In cities in which tliere are no sewers, it Is well known that the discharges from tlie inhabitants are conveyod te cess pools, where they are allowed te remaln in definitely. Sometimes the contents ei tnose ces-poels are Imperfectly removed ; some- , I. .,,.. Hint am lint ilUlurflOll. A IIOW COSSDOOl being dug in tlie neighborhood or ene which lias beceme filled. They are rarely built carefully, but are usually merely holes in the ground, lined with sufl'elent stone-work te provent the earth from falling In. In seme cities they are dug In exactly tlie same way as the wells which are intended te sup ply drinking woter. The digging is in each case continued until water is reached. Communication is thus established with sub sub terrnnean currents, and the refuse matter which finds its way Inte the cesspools Is at least partly carried away. This saves seme treuble ; but what becomes of the rofuse mat ter 1 Under very exceptional circumstances, it may find Its way te some large body or water which is net used for drinking pur poses, nnd thus de no harm. If, however, tliere are wells in tlie neighborhood, the chances nre in favor of Uie contents of the cesspools and of the wells becoming mixed. The larger the num. ber of cesspools and or wells, the rrmntnr ilm ilancer or such a result In a city net provided with sewers, tlioreforo ii. n reiKiitinns nrn such as te lead almost certainly te contamination of the water or surfaeo-wells with the contents or the cess pools. Besides tills, there is the danger or contamination from surface-dralnage, which cannot be avoided. Tlie water which falls upon the ground, whether the ground be paved or net, sinks te a considerable extent below the surface, carrying with It such impu rities as may be prescnt Such surlaco-water in cities, it is sare te say, is always contami nated. Some of it is sure te find Its way into the wells. This latter seurce or contamination is com mon te all clties, whether they are provided with sowers or net While, howevor, tlie city which is previded with sowers is net sub sub sub locted te exactly tlie same kind of danger us mat lirst reierreu iuuuum", n.u "w . ..... present as much dlilorence as might at first be suppesed. The sowers are generally leaky, and the soil in thelr vicinity bocemos saturated with sewage. Thus they may con cen con trlbute te the contamination of the well waters. Of course, the danger et such con tamination is net se great as when tliere are neBOwers,but still It Is quite sufficient te JUStlly lllOCOIUlOUIIiaUUIlul imnuiianrniiim The waters of city wells have frequently been studied by chemists and biologists, and the results Invariably show that contamina tion Is the rule. IuBioeklyn, N. Y., there were, in 1832, tliree hundred and sixteen wells. Chemical examination suewuu, "that, of this whele number, butsoventeon furnished water fit for human consumption." Similar results have been reached In an ox ex ox nmlnatlen of the water or the wells of Balti more, whero a few years age there were be tween ene and two hundred in use, Tlie contamination of some of the waters exam- l.m.l u-eanileh ns tin sllOW that VOrV clOSO COll- nectien must exlst between the wells aud cosspoels. The testimony of all who have given special attontlen te the subject or the water or city wells Is unanswerable Net only does a consideration of the surrounding circumstances lead us te suspect that the water must be contaminated, but the most careful examinations, by these most capable or making the examinations, have shown that actually, and almost invariably, the water Is badly contaminated.

All ellbrts te trace the robbers proving unavailing, the mutter was almost forgotten. Becently, however, a negress named Elizabeth Pellar, appeared In Branch's stere te pawn a watch. The clerk rocegnlzcd It and caused her arrest When taken te Jail Bhe confessed that she received the watch from n woman called Millie, who gave It te her en her death-lied, telling her that a man she loved best hi the world gave it te her. Ills picture hung en the wall, but Mlllle did net mention his name. On her dentil the negress took the peer woman's efiects, as no ene else claimed them. The picture was taken with the ether things, and tlie lest trail was recovered by the finding of this picture In a negre dive. It was recog nized as that of ene Stevens. He was traced te a ranch en the " Panlnmdle" and arrested. He denied all complicity in the crime, lint has been fully identified as the leader of the robbers.

Frem citizens of Mansfield, a vdlnge twenty miles south of here, it is learned that a reign of terror exists in the community, the outcemo of the killing of Dr. J. W. Wallace by Dr. J. T. Stevens, for which killing Stevcns was tried and acquitted. Tliere are two factions in the place, ene believing the killing justi fiable, the ether deeming it a cold-bleodod murder. About a week age, the residence of Dr. Slevens' father was burned, and yester day morning between ene and two o'clock, the offices of Dr. Stevens and Dr. Wal lace, a brother of the deceased, wero fired by Incendiaries. Sunday a line horse el Dr. Stecns was poisoned and this was followed en Monday by the death efa splen did stallion belonging te Wallace, which had also been poisoned. Men who are net en either side of the controversy say they are afraid te open their mouths, as both factions are dangereus. Murder Is ioeked for as the next outcome. The grand jury is net in session, but the sherill will probably said several deputies te the sceno el the treuble, te try and keep the peace.
