HEALTH COMMISSIONER.

The plan of substituting one health com
missioner for the present Board of Health
composed of five members, and at the
same time, adopting license system by
which all establishments liable to become
nuisances are licensed, appears to meet
with general favor. The physicians are
pronounced in its favor, as they claim it
win prove more beneficial to the general
health of Rock Island than could be &C
complished by several boards of health.
They state that the licences will prove suf-
ficient to pay the salary of good health
officer, and that instead of proving more
expensive than the present system, it will
really be more economical as the new plan
viii become self-sustaining. Aside from
its economical advantage, the main point in
its favor, as viewed by the physicians is the
fact that one man will be personally respon-
sible for every nuisance. He will make it
his business to attend to every complaint
and will have the nuisance abated, if on
examination it proves to be detrimental to
public health or comfort. Where the nuts
anee complained of is of a public charac-
ter and the institution is under license,
the nuisance will have to be abated or the
license revoked. Several physicians state
that DIR. DeWolf, Of Chicago, during his
recent visit here affirmed that he did not
think it possible to keep city in perfect
sanitary condition under the old board of
health organization. The efficiency of the
board is increased by decreasing the MEM
bers of the health commission, and there
can be no doubt but that it will prove a
great benefit to Rock Island,
when the health commissioner and
the license system are inaugurated. The
physicians generally deprecate the sem
blance Of school fight which some of the
homeopathic practitioners would desire to
make of the present action of the Board of
Health in recommending the abolition of
the board as at present constituted, and
substituting therefore single health COM
missioner. The stand of DR.. Paul is gen
orally admired, as while he feels the honor
that has been conferred upon him by his
selection as a member, and knows that it
came without his personal application or
a petition of his friends, he nevertheless
believes in making the interests of the city
first, and the particular school of medicine
to which he belongs of secondary consid-
Grafton. The matter will come up in the
council at the next regular meeting in
November, when it is probable the charge
will be effected.

WILD RICE.

1t has been suggested as good scheme
that all the sloughs and shallow ponds ad-
jacent to the city should be planted with
wild rice. The suggestion comes from a
sportsman, but in as much as there are
many persons in this city and vicinity who
are partial to the sport of hunting it is not
improbable to suppose the suggestion will
be acted upon.
An enthusiastic hunter in noting the adj
vantages to be derived from wild rice says:
THE rice is bonanza to the ducks
and they prefer it to fields of corn. 1t grows
easily and spreads rapidly, and another
thing which considerable experience has
taught that water in the pond where there
is wild rice does not becomes foul from
Fstagnation. A farmer who has a slough
or pond on his farm can make it worth
money by simply sowing it with wild rice
It keeps the water pure, horses and cattle
fatten on il. And still another virtue of
is its beauty. A field of it is a fine sight
from June until snow falls. Over along
the Illinois river the bottoms are full of it.
There are seen thousands of acres of it
waving like sea of melted gold in the
sunlight, and the greatest familiarity never
made it less than beautiful sight.
One popularity of wild rice is that it will
not grow in deep water or in perfectly
clear water. 1t is never seen where the
water was over two feet deep unless raise
had brought it up after the rice was grown,
and it is oftener found where the water is
from two to ten inches deep. Wherever
it is found there also will be found a
growth of sedge which does not come
above the top of the water. Some claim
that this sedge is part Of the rice, but
this is a mistake. It is a separate growth
and may be found in innumerable places
where there is no sign of rice.
The proper way to sow wild rice is to
cut off the stalks below the surface OF the
water in the fall after good frost, but be
fore the wind has shaken out the seeds.
These stalks, with the seeds still clinging
to the tops, are as soon as possible thrown
into the shallow places in pond or slough
and fastened in some way to prevent the
wind from drifting them into deep water.
A very few stalks thus sown In the fall
will show fine start as soon as the water
becomes low enough the following summer,
and by the second year it win have spread
over all the available ground in a good
sized pond.

WATER SUPPLY.

The laying of the inlet pipe for the new
and improved water supply system of this
city, is about completed for the present
season, although the station originally
designated for the water supply has net
been reached The inlet pipe has been
placed in position for distance of 1900
feet from the Gable engine building which
is about 500 feet from the point decided
upon from which the supply station was to
have been located. The present end of the
pipe win be utilized for the coming winter,
and next season the pipe will be carried
out an additional 500 feet to the perma-
nent supply station. This decision has
been made necessary by reason of the high
water of the river and the slough With
the present stage of water neither the
dredge boat nor the chisel boat
are able to do any effective work,
and as the season is generally advanced
it is thought probable that the present
end of the inlet pipe will be temporarily
used as supply station, This temporary
supply station is located 1,500. feet from. the

the Island and it is thought that it viii
answer all purposes for the coming winter
and spring.
The only work necessary now to COM
plete this portion of the work viii be to
connect the inlet pipe with the reservoir
well or eistern at the Gable engine build
ing, distance of some "a feet. The street
mains are yet to be placed in position, but
this work can be rushed to completion
as soon as the ground is sufficiently dry
to admit of such excavations as are neces
sary for this part of the new system.
1t is stated that there is large boulder
Immediately in the track of the proposed
inlet pipe, short distance from it's pres
ent terminus This obstruction necessi-
tated a halt and the high water renders
the dredge boat and chisel boat Ineffective.
In consequence of this obstruction work
viii probably be suspended for the season,
as the present end of the inlet pipe will
give the pure water from the rapids aimed
at in the new system.

DON'T MIND TRIFLEs.

1t has been reported that J. A. O'Neil is
about to be married and the report is cor
roborated by circumstances that admit of
no contradiction. Mr.. O'Neil will wed
Miss Minnie H Melchoir, at Trempauleau,
Wisconsin, to morrow evening. That gen.
tleman in company with J. V. Mahoney,
General Passenger agent of the r. I. s. P
and Father Mackin of the St. Josephs'
church in this city, started for Tempauleau
this morning. They had intendeded to go
via the c., M. s. st. P. but the recent high
water has caused that road to abondon its
trains and hence they were obliged to take
a raft boat. Trempauleau is a short dis
lance from Winona, and it is to be hoped
that the groom viii arrive at his destina-
ton by tomorrow night as otherwise the
wedding win have to be postponed.
