NEW0RD|NANCE
FOR STEAM
PLANTS

| The old ordinances governin.
the inspection of boilers and en-
gines and the issuance of license!
to engineers is being amended ant
brought up to date by the board O.
public works.
An amended ordinance was in
troduced at the last meeting max
ing a number of changes affectins
those who have power and heatine
plants.
One of the important alterations
is the doing away with the is
suance of special licenses fol-
handling small power and heating
plants. Formerly it was necessary
to have a license for small plants
This Objectionable feature of the
old ordinance has been abolished
and all plants that do not contain
more than 144 square feet of heat
ing surface do not need a licensed
engineer. This is also the case
with traction engines coming in or
going out of the city, locomotives
automobiles and boilers located in
federal buildings.
The method of examining en-
gineers has been changed An ex-
aiming board of three will pass
on the qualifications Of applicants.
A fee of $1.00 will be charged by
the examining board and will COM
pensate the board for it's services,
no salary being received from the
city excepting the city boiler in
spector. who acts as a member of
the board.
Manufacturing plants can hire
second or third class engineers to
keep up steam at night instead of
hiring first class men, as was the
case under the old ordinance. A
second class engineer can operate
any plant up to $50 horse power; a
third class engineer can handle
any plant up to 100 horse power.
Business blocks where elevators
are in operation will have to en-
ploy an engineer during the sum-
mer months instead of depending
upon unskilled help when heat is
unnecessary. This feature of the
ordinance is designed to protect
the public from accidents. The
custom of one man firing the boil
ers in a number of blocks will be
done away with. Only one plant
can be operated by an engineer,
The old system was well enough
when the town was smaller, but
with the groth of the city it is
considered necessary that the big
heating plants be looked after
carefully to guard against explo-
sions and accidents.

TURKISH ULTAN SPENDS DYING
DAYS INTRIGUING FOR HIS SON

CONSTANTTNOPLE, Nov. b.
| A fight for the succession to the
| throne Of Turkey is now being
Waged by a series of intrigues
more intricate than any since Alb.
| dull Hamid became sultan.
Abdul, knowing his days are
| numbered, is trying to change the
Turkish law of succession, which
declares that the eldest male men,
Der of the Osman royal house is
the heir to the throne. If this law
were carried out, the next sultan
would be Adults brother, Reshad
Efendi, a 81 year old drunkard,
and after him Adults nephew.
Prince Youssouf.
Ever since Abdul made himself
sultan by having his brother Mu-
rad deposed, he has kept Reshad
and Youssouf prisoners, knowing
that IL they were free they would
try to assassinate him. Abdul
knows also that if either of them
were to succce ed him, one of their
first acts would be to make life
long prisoners of Adults sons.
Abdul therefore is engaged in
trying ITO depose Reshad and Yous-
souf before they come to the
throne. He wants to pass over a
host of other Osmsns and secure
the succession to his favorite son,
Prince Mehmed Elrnan-Eddine Eff.
fendi, 14th in the order of pros.
pective sultans.
Abdul's ambitious project is be-
ing opposed secretly by many of
the high Turkish officials, who fear
that if Mehmed would try to re-
form Turkey he would abolish
many Of the sinecures that now
exist. Reshad sultan, on the other
hand, would devote all his time to
his rum bottles and his harem.
The army is not very favorably i'm
pressed by Mehmed, who is being
educated as a sailor, while the
generals have a deep respect for
Prince YOussouf, who is a man of
splendid courage and fighting
ability.
Abdul, however, is playing the
army against the civil officials, be-
lieving that in the end a comprom-
Use will be reached in favor of
Mehmed.
The kaiser believes that if Meh-
med is made sultan through Teu-
ton help he will favor the projects
Of Berlin for extending German in
fuence in Asia Minor. The posi-
ton of Germany causes the other
European powers to adopt an at
titude of hostility to Mehmed.
The chances favor Abdul's sue
cess, for he can proceed actively
with his scheme, while those who
oppose him are able to work very
quietly for fear of losing their
heads.
In the meantime the young

Editor The Press: Having read
your editorial of a few nights past
concerning the trials of a New
York telephone girl, the truth OF
which | at once realized and APP

a reply, stating some of the sirlilar
trials as experienced by a Spokane
operator.
The telephone operator has
many hardships to contend with.
Under the circumstances she is as
polite and courteous as subscribers
will permit.
If the party calling for a num-
her is half way reasonable with

and ready to do all she can for

only one calling. and Central" mas
nothing else to do but wait on you
alone, that party is very mucn
mistaken
For perhaps at the very same
instant you take your receiver off
the hook the operator, which you
call your Central" has at least
one half dozen more to answer who
have at that same instant taken
their receivers down. All want TO
be waited on at once. Each wants
to be first.
At this very time Central does
the best she can. answering each
in turn, and as quickly as possible.
BY the time she gets TO the fourth
party it is, well, Central what
makes you SO slow" or Central,

That it does not always pay to
talk too much has been demon
strated in the case of the Aneta

horse and presented it to the
drayman. The drayman kicked
that the price Of the gift horse
was too high. The man who SO
