John Smeeton in 1852 was the first
man to ever style himself civil engi.
neer, and in the Is years the business
has ever been growing more and more
of an exact profession, till now it is OF
equal importance with any of the
learned professions, and demands as
high quality of intellect. The bust.
ness Of mining engineering has not as
yet reached so high standard, but is
destined to surpass it, The old rule OF
thumb is being rapidly discarded, and
the advance is noticeably greater in
the last 20 years than in the preceding
l3l. Like the miner, who has had TO
grope his way painfully upward, the
mining engineer has had to be creative
IN his functions, and cause demand
before furnishing the corr elative sup,
ply. The scope of the mining engineer
is becoming tremendous one in
variety and requirements. He is be-
coming the master and interpreter of
protean forces, and in his functions
com bines the powers of many branches
of practical science. Indeed, all the
modern arts and sciences, so far as
they apply to mechanic, come under
the domain of the mining engineer, for
nearly everything o make up modern
mechanical progress comes in some,
where as a part Of the great mining
and metallurgical industry, whether it
be the whole railroad system of ore
transportation, the pneumatic method
in converters, the best efforts of the
electrician, the most complex and far
reaching process OF the chemist, the
keenest effort of the geologist, the pro.
foundest demonstrations of the matbe-
matician. Thus the educational equip
ment of the m iuing engineer is becom-
lug necessarily as much more com plex
than it was as are the appliances at his
com mand in contrast with the simple
devices of generation ago. And if
the demands for capacity and knowl,
edge seem great, it H. to be borne in
mind that the rewards are proportional
and commensurate No youthful pro-
fession on earth pays higher salaries
to day than are paid mining engineers,
aud the world of great mining enter
prises stands ready to pay man the
value he himself sets upon his services
provided he can demonstrate his worth
as matter Of economy-economy in
this regard meaning the judicious ex
penditnre of money.-M. & S Press.

A clever engineering feet Is to be
undertaken in Chicago. The dome of
the Masonic Temple, which Is one of
the highest buildings in the city, is to
be lifted and another story added to
the skyscraper. The Masonic Temple
rises V feet above the street. There
are Il stories, containing 450 offices
and stores. The cost of the building
was 3,50),O00S. II took 100000
pounds of steel and 795 carloads or 81.
500,o00 pounds of hollow tile to buil6
it. 1t houses 5000 people during bust.
ness hours, and it takes IA fast. going
elevators to carry them up and down.
The pumps required to run the eleva.
tors thydraulic) could supply city of
60,OJ0 inhabitants with water. On the
top of the building is an observat ory
that commands the best view of the
city. Beneath the dome OF the build
ing at the present time is the floor
utilized for roof garden tbeater with
seating capacity of l,200. The man.
agement of the building is making
plans for the addition of a new story
to the structure The work involved
in this contem plates the raising of the
Immense dome of the building six feet
and the lowering OF the theater floor
six feet, giving II feet more of per.
pendicnlar height. This enabling the
building to acquire a new and addi-
tional story must be only a matter of
wonder to the outside world, which
keeps little apace of what engineers
are doing. 1t is expected that work
will begin early in October of this year
and it will be carried on without dis
turbance to the more than 5000 occu.
pants of the building or the $4,000 peo-
pie who daily go in and out of the
structure. The total amount of iron
aud steel TO be moved in making the
alterations is 3,OO0,O00 pounds, or
about / so tons. The greater portion
OF this is in the observatory dome.
The work will be done 354 feet in the
air.-Western Mining World.

The Searchlight, OF Searchlight, New,
Gays: For about three weeks the boil
er Of the locomotive on the Quartette
r. K. has been causing trouble to the
engineer on account Of stopped mp and
leaking fiues. Last week the boiler
was overhauled and thoroughly clean.
ed and large quantity of rust colored
mud was taken out. which was the
cause OF the engines failure to keep up
steam. A quantity of this mud was
panned out and string Of gold dust
was found in the bottom OF the pan.
The water used in the boiler is pumped
from the 500 foot level OF the Golden
Treas ury mine, and more or less sedi-
ment arises with IT, The sump from
which the water is taken must be in
very rich ore which accounts for the
