GALVESTON WILL BE RAISED.
1t is Proposed to Elevate Portions of
the Island Ten Feet.

a letter received by Building In
spcctor Roberts Of Denver gives a very
good idea Of the extent to which Gal
weston people intend going in rebuild
ing their city.
1T has about been decided" says
the writer. TO raise Che level of the
island above the high water mark Of
the recent storm. 1t is said. and with
considerable show of p~racticability.
that sand can be raised from the bot
tom of the bay with hydraulic drcdgcs
and carried to certain parts of the isl
and until a deposit of ten feet in thick,
ness has been made. We realize here
that it is a gigantic task, and have fig
urcd that the cost will likely be about
81. 900, 600. But that is by no means
a prOhibitivc amount when the protcc-
ton which would be afforded by the
fill is considered.
This fill, with the sea wall which
is contemplated, and which will GER
tainly be built, will reclaim our beau
tiful city and make it as high and dry
and safe as any place in the United
States"
The letter then goes ON to quote diff
tercnt authorities on the subject of
the practicability of the scheme and
mentions as evidence that Galveston
can be raised, the fact that State Sen
ator kean of New York has bought
300, 900 cubic yards Of earth taken from
the rapid transit TUNE! being built in
New York city and will use it to fill in
the low meadow lands between New
ark and Elizab"thport, y. J.. thereby
gaining a manufacturing sit" over 500
acres in extent.

ENGLISH DOCTORS FEES.
Larger than In Other Countries and
Fortunes Have Been Amassed.

-
Fortunes Have Been Amassed.
Perhaps the physicians of England
receive larger fees than their brother
practitioners in other countries of the
world. The greatest medical feature
of the century. as might have been eX-
pected, has fallen to the lot of Sir
William Jenner, who died a short time
ago at the ripe old age of SO years. Sir
William. who was always liberal in his
expenditure and his charities. left a
personal estate of the value Of $780,
900. In his palmiest days Sir William
more than once made $4,000 by a
single weeks work. although natur-
ally his average earnings were much
below this amount. He himself, how
ever, estimated his aggregate profess
sional income for the last 80 years
of his active life at over half a mil
lion pounds sterling, and yet this king
of doctors has been known to travel
to a distant suburb and take a two
guinea fee with a smile and a Thank
you" Some of the largest recorded
medical fees, however, fall to his lot,
and he is said to have received f2O,-
600 for his attendance on the late
prince consort and the Prince of Wales
during their two serious. and in one
case fatal, Illnesses. Sir William
Gull. who had nine years less of life,
amassed G344, 023, the second medical
fortune of the century; Sir Andrew
Clark, with a still shorter life. accu-
mulated G146,7 TAG. 1t is significant that
some of the medical men who have
reapted the largest harvests have been
proprietors Of private asylums. DR..
Paul, proprietor Of the Camberwell
House Private Asylum, amassed over
G1OO 600. ard DR.. William Wood. of
the ! ivate Asylum, Roehamp-
to. ! 20. Fifteen physicians
WHO d quite recently left be-
h ! Il. an aggregate fortune of
G. 100. 900, Or the gratifying average
saws # tl33. 900. Sir Morell Mac
kenzi nd to have received f2O,-
900 for attending Frederick the Noble,
but at his death left only f21,95 SO.
These fortunes become Ineligible
when we consider that a fashionable
physician frequently earns from 100 to
200 guineas in a couple Of hours morn
ing consultations, and that there are
many days on which his fees amount
to 300 guineas or more. An ordinary
fee for attending a patient at a dis
lance of 200 miles from town would be
$50 guineas, and for an operation at
this distance a fashionable surgeon
would get considerably more.-Utica
