Tha reason why the water pressure ! - was insufficient when the first cn ' flection was made by the Are depart ' anent at the big 7arlotte Pipe & tyundry Are Saturday night, whs aim ; ply because no alarm was sounded when the Are was first .dlm-ovcrcd at ? 9:U o'clock. No notice of the exls itenoe of the Are wan received at the . pumping station until 10:05, when the lr bell sounded for the first time. By means of a lever at the pumping .elation, the extra pressure may l put on immediately with the sounding Ofrtbe alarm. 80 efficient Is this con--; trivance that the extra, pressure may be had before the Are department can run from the station to the square. Mr. Pat. H. Williams, acting ssper ' fntendenl of the Charlotte Water Works Plant, showed to an Observer reporter yesterday a chart which re corded the pressure Saturday night. A t:15 o'clock, when the alarm was ' sent in by 'phone, the record shows that the stand-pipe was full, and that the water pressui-e wua normal. It remained so until 10:05, when the bell - wounded. At once the connection with 5 the stand-pipe was cut off and the pressure was sent into the city direct from the pumps, llence ater that time, the full pressure was secured for the fighting of the tire.

While this statement perhaps is a little broad, there is ho question but that there is an Unusually large number of cars tied up in the yards and on the tracks bout Charlotte.

Jfe r rived in. the city late wunaay nigni. from Brevard. All of yesterday was spent tn looking over the property and making arangements for the resump tion of work. It Is probable that some thing may be done within a few week, but the whole plant cannot be replaced in several months. For the next few weeks, the pattern machine shops will be operated and everything will be gotten In readiness for operations when the main buJidlng Is complete. Mr. Dowd estimates his loss at $36,000, with $13,000 insurance. As stated In The Observer Sunday morning, Mr. Dowd sustained the heaviest loss in the destruction of the building where water pipe was to have besen made. Everything was ready for the casting of the first pipe this week. The Are came Saturday night and swept the building and equipment away. The equipment was of the best. One of the largest electric elevators In the State was in position and this was a total wreck. Mr. Dowd states that he will expe rience little difficulty in filling his or ders, for he has on hand $50,000 worth of manufactured product, besides about $30,000 worth of the raw materi al, none of which was injured by the fire. He reckons that the Charlotte Pipe & Foundry Company will be ready for business by the early sum-rr.ar- SYRIAN BOYS AND (URLS. They Thrive Ilke tlw Kngllsh Sparrow and Mvo in die streout. There are two rjlasses of citizens that cannot be downed and they are, first, the Syrian babies of this city and the Kngllsh sparrows. While other chil dren are dying from diphtheria, teeth ing and other troubles the Syrian youngcters are flourishing In their sweltering dives and ehlrt-talls. If one who plods the streets from day to day will look about he can see Syrian boys and girls of tender ages flying across ahead of the cars and dodging among the vehicles, xne wttie nrats look healthy, strong and peart. They constantly remind one of the English sparrow, the hardiest bird that exists. yesterday as an Observer man was on his way nome 10 supper, a negro came up North Tryon street toward Ihe square, driving a large spirited horse. As the turnout passed the Charlotte Hotel the negrop's bat blew off, and a tiny Syrian girl, who was walking on the sidewalk ran out. grabbed up the big hat. gave It to the driver and cried out: "Iet me ride, let me ride!" But, the negro, an African-looking fellow, never as much as said "thank vou." The child seemed disappointed, but not discouraged. She ran back to the sidewalk and scooted In and out among the people. You can't loose a little Syrian, and the smaller they are the more ubiquitous they seem to be. MR. W. If. TAYIiOK IN THK CITY. Calls f'Mn Mayor K. S. McNIndi Relative to Railroad Rats. Mr. W. 11. Tnyloe, general passenger agent of the Southern Railway Com pany, with headquarters In Washing ton, D. C, and Mr. C. W. Westbury, district passenger agent with offices In Richmond, Vs., spent yesterday in the city on business. While here, Mr. Tayloe called upon Mayor 8. 8.

Mr. Tayloe stated that he will do all In his power to af ford Charlotte every facility that the Southern has to ntfer.

Mayor McNInch statps that the roads are ( o-op-nitliig heartily with the com mittee. It is believed that every ac commodation will be secured. KXtTHKION IN Jl'NK. Irllcliard- Memorial HapllNt Sunday hcliool to Operate One to Wil mington. The Prltchard Memorial Baptist Hun day school Is already making plans for t me running or us annual excursion to Wilmington In June. The committee In charge of the arangements have been told by the railroad rfflcials that this is to be the only train that has been spoken for to Wilmington this sea son. While there may lie one or two private excursions, none will be oper ated by the road Itself. There will be hardly any next year owing to the fact that all the cars will lie used In running excursions to the Jamestown KxiM.xltlon. which is slated for tin- I slimmer. Messrs. W. F. Dowd. V. o. Willis. F. V. tthco, J. J. EmcII. Z. V.

The doctors' treatment did not do one particle of good, and at the birth of my child I had convulsions and was critically ill. and for weeks I was very low. v.When I 'got up I was. In a fearfully; weak condition and stilt suffered from that dropsical trouble. This remained my condition until a few months before the birth ox my second child. L X .then determined to quit doctors treatment, and bought one dozen bottles of Mrs. Joe Per sons Remedy , and took it. By the time I finished the dozen bottles, every indication of that dropsical trouble had - disappeared, and my health was good, At the birth of my second child my condition was nat ural, and I was 'soon up and 'well, and my health has remained so ever since. Before the birth of my third child, I again took a dozen bottles, and I never had a touch of that dropsical - affection, and had as healthy, natural. outcome as was pos sible.
