THAT RECEIVING HOSPITAL.

The establishment of receiving hospital by

as 10 whether this is the best and most eeonom-
zeal course 10 be taken in the case OF city pa
tients. The sister superior of Providence hospi-
tai, when questioned by Observation-Disclosures
reporter concerning the statement that the city
has been paying that institution from $500 to
$3.50 every month. said that it was incorrect
The books viii show that the charge made upon
the city for the care OF patients S652 for Dc
tober, Si79 for November and $50 for December
The uniform rate to the city is 81 day per pa
inland considering the nledicinefurnshed and
the class OF cases received, this is very reason
able. Moreover, every patient when discharged
is given a new suit of clothes without any charge
whatever She did not think that the patients
could De kept properly at the city hospital Tor
less money, or that they could be a. well cared
for as at Providence hospital, which is so much
better supplied with facilities and has the best
of trained nurses.
Mr.. Tremaine, the steward OF Grace hospital
when spoken 10 ON the subject, said he didu' {
see how patients could be well taken care of for
less than 81 a day. 4 man is living pretty
cheaply if it only costs him 81 day for food
and lodging, and in addition the medicine and
nursing is worth considerable He did not
think the city patients could receive proper at
tention without having trained nurses.

INTELLIGESCER concerning the amounts paid by
the city 10 the hospitals was upon the authority
Of Chief OF Police Monroe, who furnished the in

and wrote TO each Of these men, asking for their
statement without exception they affirmed
that they had been residents of Seattle for wear

THE NORTH RIVER VALLEY.
One ofthe Richest Undeyeloped Districts
i'm the State of Wasllinpton

ELNA, JAM 27.-[special. l-Messrs. Hogan e.
Brown, who have been cruising in the country
lying between Elma and Willapa, say that the
North River valley, which lies in that section,
is one OF the finest they have seen in Western
Washington. 1t is from one to tw miles in
width, and from forty to fifty miles in length.
The largest portion of the valley is directly trib
utary to Elma, and upon completing the road
now under construction the settlers will have
direct communication with this city. The land
is said 70 be very fertile, and well adapted for
farming purposes. 1t is covered with scattering
spruce, vine maple and alder, which can be
cleared very readily. The settlers have had
very good success in raising wheat, oats, hay,
and all kinds or vegetables 1t is said that there
are flattering indications of coal in that region.
but as ii has not yet been developed, it is not
known to what extent the vein exists. From
what can be learned of this new valley it is des-
tined 10 become greater farming district than
the great Chehalis valley.
Elmas large school building is expected to be
ready for occupancy by February l.
