A HO NE Bribune. 19, 1874 19, 1874 IMPORTANT WATER POWER. Encouragenient Light Maunfac- it is intended to give way shortly to a high pressure one to be run by water from the Contra Costa mains. We will not attempt a description of the governing principle of this invention, which seems destined to play an important part throughout cities supplied by extensive water works. This concern, if we are not greatly deceived, will be much less expensive than steam engines of the same power, and on the score of safety and room, there is no comparison, of course.

The water wheel will not take up more space than a baby wagon; and cannot explode or set fire to things. A GRAND HOTEL SCHEME. As soon as we get our new Bullock press we shall get this water-power attachment. The beast will always have an abundance of drink at least, if the grass does get short. And that brings us down to the more important part of the item.

The public are doubtless aware of the fact that Brother Potter (Geo. C. for short), is bothered a good deal as to what to do with that excavated real estate at the junction of Broadway and San Pablo avenue. He has failed in the city a slice for a sidewalk, all hands knowing that it rightfully belongs to the city already, and he is also desirous of perpetrating some great public good at the least possible expense to party of the first part. He has got the Memorial Fountain as good as located at the little end of the dilemma, and is still not happy.

Cap. Wilcox has anticipated him somewhat, by moving an old boarding school hash 1 house on to the corner of Fourteenth and Broadway, and directly fronting on the forthcoming Fountain. Thus it is plain that Brother P. will lose all the pleasures of the play, unless something is done and that soon. The idea of having that fortyparson power work of art, squirting world without end, free gratis for nothing, at the expense of old Chabot, you know, and for the benefit of Wilcox alone, is most damnable.

It is enough to dash the ambition of Hellfire Jack. Perish the thought! Perish Notwithstanding we cannot agree with Brother Potter in his claim against the city, we are with him heart and soul in any undertaking that will relieve that part of our fair city of a most obnoxious eye-sore. So we are pleased to announce to our many beloved patrons, that we have at last hit upon a plan whereby that hole in the ground will soon be among the things were. It is well-known that Brother, P.

The Goddess or Liberty with the Sword of Gideon. The TRIBUNE spoke last evening about the near approach of the long-talked of Memorial Fountain, but had no definite news of its immediate appearance. Our paper was scarcely issued before the work of art in question might have been seen wending its way to. its destination. This morning, Brother Potter and 66 Judge 99 Turner were early on the ground, and they proceeded to the business of setting up the different sections, leaving out the crowning feature, who was carefully carried off the scene.

The first section was put in place, the side the inscription is on facing toward Potter's grounds, and reading as follows: "Erected in commemoration of the victory won at the ballot-box, Oakland, May 30, 1874." The second section, with the nccompanying attachments, is covered up near by with some horse blankets. The Goddess was not allowed to remain there over night, but was taken off to parts unknown by the proprietor. She will have a more appropriate vail perhaps. The Fountain sides are figured with dragons and dogs heads--the tails of the dragons wouud round the necks of the dogs, who have their mouths open as if sick at the stomach. It is the finest old hugging scene out of jail.

And the end is not yet. The Little Game. We were quite amused yesterday afternoon in listening to several little boys, from eight to twelve years of age. who were standing near fruit stand on Broadway, earnestly putting up a job to steal some apples. A bare-footed, ragged boy remarked to a dirty-faced little fellow, as follows: "Say, cully, you lean agin the stand, and I'll heave yer over, and spill yer hat onto these apples.

Then Jimmy can snatch the hat, and hull lot of them fruit, and light out round the corner. You stay and holler, and the old man won't twig the racket, and pooty soon you kin come round and stand in on the spiles. We got away with a hatfull yesterday." About this time, Officer Shorey was seen coming, when the bare-footed boy remarked to little red-headed urchin, who was jabbering away in high glee, in anticipation of the "spiles, it, Brick, here comes a cop. Cheese it, you little stiff; can't you tumble to anything; you'll give the racket away, and we'll get pulled!" From the Sage Brush. A stable of running horses from Virginia, is expected to arrive in San Francisco by to-night's train.

The citizens the town, appreciative of his many tues, last night formed in a procession, and with torches marched to his home to tender their regrets at the loss of valued a citizen.

Just as he was about to proceed to the pound, the old lady hopped on his back, clasping dog and all in her arms. The daughter took in the aituation at a glance, and rushed out with a pair of shears to cut the lasso. In a minute more, four neighbor women jumped him--six women and a dog hold of one man.

While physicians of conservative ideas and of the old school practice are prone to be slow and uncertain in their treatment, and too frequently keep patients on their hands for indefinite periods, without either removing disease or improving health. Dr. Hall, confident of his superior skill and ability, breaks through the resisting form of the malady almost at the outset of his treatment and thereby opens the way to a speedy cure.

In his opinion the melancholy fact cannot be too forcibly pointed out that thousands are annually greatly impaired in health and purse by falling into the hands of unprincipled men, who selfstyle themselves doctors, and he therefore desires to impress upon the minds of sufferers the importance of making careful inquiry into the claims and reputations of medical men before they employ any physician, as, by so doing, they will be likely to escape prolonged misery and heavy expenses.

has contemplated the erection of hotel on those excavated premises, but the refusal of the city to contribute the means, put a damper on the enterprise. Besides, the Grand Central combination troupe got into the field in advance of the pending negotiation, and poor. Bro. P. has had to delay action beyond all calculation.

Now is the summer of our discontent made glorious winter by reason of the Local Option victory of last May. We have labored with Brother P. and the rest of the bretheren and sisteren (that hole in the ground has been spoken of as a suitable place for a fire cistern), until the fountain is almost as good as in motion, and are now rejoiced to know that the big hash house in the forks of the road is not only possible, but probable. By attaching one of Hesse's high pressure, water wheels to the free water of the fountain, all the opposition that Merritt and Wilcox can bring to bear, cannot prevail against a hotel run by water-power. No Chinamen will be required to chew the life-sustaining hash, and we may safely say that all hell cannot prevail against the hotel that Brother P.

can now go on and erect without momentary delay. It will stand out in the middle, as it were, of our two most distinguished thoroughfares, and with water playing in a useful and ornamental manner, there is nothing to prevent an early closing up of all the rest of the -houses in town, howsoever high toned. Brother can get the Council to erect another street lamp in close proximity, and at night the city gas can play on the sportive waters to a magnificent extent. Thus we see how a temperance reform can be made to serve the most gorgeous purpose in a private way. The inventor will be benefited, the public can have cheaper hash and lodgings -the wheel being enabled to run the elevators, and there is nothing to discourage the erection of a ten-story house, except an occasional scalawag an earthquake looking for an easy situation.

Brother Potter has a very limited amount of real estate in Oakland anyhow, and having hopes in heaven, there is additional reason for his making it very high old house. Hesse's residence can be found in the directory. He -will be glad to erect a wheel for nothing so conspicuous a place.
