CHANGE EMERGENCY
HOSPITALS HEAD PHYSICIAN TO
BE SUPERINTENDENT.

A change In the policy OF management OF
the Emergency Hospital was decided upon
yesterday afternoon at meeting of the
board Of directors. The change results from
the resignation OF Miss Irene Lenig, the
superintendent for several years.
1t was determined by the board that the
head house physician Of the hospital In
stead Of the head nurse, shall be the super
intendent, and DR.. Charles 8. White, the
head PHYSICIAN, was then made superintend-
ent. Miss Lenig's successor Will be known
as superintendent of nurses. To that posi-
tion Miss Bertha Orlo-Smith was appointed
DR.. White Is not stranger In this city.
He has been practicing medicine since 1898.
and first served in George Washington Hos
pital and later in the Columbia Hospital, In
this city. He went to New York city and,
after two years in a. leading hospital there,
returned here three years ago and was ap-
pointed to the Emergency Hospital
Miss Orlo-Smith, superintendent of nurses,
was chosen from several applicants. She
has been practicing her profession for a
number of years, was superintendent of the
Memorial Hospital, in Brooklyn. and later
held similar position In private hospital
Mr.. w. j. Boardman presided at the meet
Ing yesterday. and DR.. e.. Brown Miller
acted as secretary. The recommendation
OF the attending staff, which was finally
adopted, was discussed thoroughly. The
conclusion was reached that the transfer Of
the superintendency from the head nurse
to the head physician will ultimately prove
beneficial.

KILLING FROST IN MIDDLE WEST
Fruit Crop in Sections Of Michigan
Damaged.

A heavy frost, which was killing In many
sections, was general all over Michigan
Wednesday night. 1t caused much destruc-
ton among fruit trees and shrubs which
were in blossom. Especially heavy damage
is said to have been caused strawberries and
peaches. Prof. F. A. Fletcher Of the horti-
cultural department Of the Michigan Agri-
cultural College. at Lansing, said yesterday
over the telephone that adyices to him from
an area In the fruit belt extending from
Benton Harbor to a point about sixty miles
north Of Grand Rapids indicate that the
peach. cherry and plum crops are nearly
wiped out by the frosts Of the last few
nights.
Dispatches from different parts of Ohio In
dicate that the damage to vegetation by
frost Wednesday night will be heavy. At
some places there was a hard freeze In
Geauga county, In the vicinity of Charlton,
there was heavy fall of sleet. and 1t laid
on the ground early yesterday from one to
two inches thick. At Chagrin Falls a snow
storm prevailed, and then came q freeze
up. There was heavy frost throughout
Ashtabuia county, and ice formed in many
places. The frost in the vicinity OF Upper
Sandusky was so heavy that the fields
looked as though snow had fallen.

Nominated to Be Assistant Commissioner Of the
Land Office.
at his home. carrollton, Ohio. Mr.. Fimple
was q most acceptable assistant commits
sioner OF that office. and his resignation is
cause Of universal regret among its OIL
GERS and employees. to all Of whom he was
helpful and companionable.
George f. Pollock. who has just been
nominated to succeed Mr.. Fimple as assist
ant commissioner of the general land office.
Ia forty-ive years of age. In his early life
he was deprived of the advantages OF even
q common school education. His father. q
coal miner of small means, with q large
family of dependent children, was forced by
his necessities to put his son to work In
the mines at the age Of twelve. where he
was compelled to remain until he was nine
teen years old to aid in the support OF his
younger brothers and sisters. After leav-
ing the coal mines Mr.. Pollock worked as a
common farm hand during the summers of
the ensuing three years, and spent the win
ters attending the village school. four miles
from his home. to and from which he
walked each day.
In 1884 the late President Mckinley.
then member of Congress, obtained Mr..
Pollocks appointment as a. Waterman in the
Capitol grounds in this city. and having in
the meantime pursued his studies at night,
he later took the examination prescribed
for a clerkship. and in 1886 was appointed
to a $1,000 position in the War Department,
under Colonel. now General Ainsworth, by
whom he was soon promoted to 81 200 and
with whom he remained until he was trans
ferred to the general land Office and as
signed to duty in the mineral division in
1890. He was successfully promoted through
the various grades Of service in that dfvis-
ion, until he was made a principal examiner
Of land claims and contests in 1897, at q
salary Of 5000 a year. In 1902 he was
transferred to the Interior Department as
an assistant attorney. where he remained
until he was later transferred to the gen.
eral land office. and made chief of the spe-
cia1 service division. the most important
division in that office. MIR. Pollock, being a
man Of executive ability. soon reorganized
his division and brought 1t to a state of
efficiency 1t had never before known: and
it has been largely through his immediate
direction and untiring efforts that many
land frauds have been discovered by the
seventy-fve special agents under his
charge. His salary as assistant commits
sioner will be s., 500 year.
In addition to other official duties Mr.
Pollock is at present chairman of one of
the most important subcommittee of the
Keep commission.
