NEWELL HONORED
WITH NEW POST
Made Consulting Engineer
of Geological
Survey.

Secretary Garfield has designated f.
II. Newell. Director Of the Reclamation
Service, as the consulting engineer Of
the Geological Survey. This is in recog-
milton Of Mr.. Newelrs long service in
building UP the engineering work of that
bureau. as It pertains 70 the measure
ment of streams and the determination
Of the water supply. This work was ini-
tiated by him in 1888, and carried on
under his direction. II has gradually ex-
banded from a few simple measurements
Into a system covering the greater part
Of the Ulited States.
AS a result large amount or data has
been brought together, covering the be-
haviOr OF streams in different parts Of
the country. and affording material upon
which 10 base substantial development
The Importance of these Investigations
will he readily appreciated when II is
known that during recent years from
S3.0t0.C00 10 S5.CO00O0 per annum has
been expended in water powers and
other works, which would not have been
invested If 70 were not for the existence
OF the data which have been procured
by the Geological Survey. These records
of river flow and the fluctuations in high
and low water seasons extend through q.
number OF years and are absolutely es-
sential 10 the engineer and investor in
planning important works for stream
utilization.
Il is proposed by the Geological Sur
vcy that this work shall be continued
and stu further expanded In various
lines.

Vaccination at Occur d.Alene.

AS a result of the smallpox and a
vaccination order. the public schools
were today ordered closed for two
weeks. When smallpox broke out a
few weeks ago the order was given
that all children should he vaccin-
ated.
The vaccination order has been the
result of much bitter feeling and
caused a war among the doctors
here. While the usual fee is so
cents, it is said that some of the
physicians saw an opportunity to
wax fat when the compulsory vac
cination order was issued, and went
into a combine to charge 50 each.
Many poor people with large families
were unable to pay this sum. a few
physicians cut rates to 81 and were
accused by brother doctors Of un-
professional conduct. DR.. Scalion,
who has just been elected mayor, said
he would vaccinate free Of charge
where it was shown the parents
were unable to pay. Others got mad
at him and have opened war on his
administration. Between the vac
cination order and the truant officer
the children have had hard time.

Spaniards working at the Goldsmith

known one of the sticks exploded,
setting off the 200 pounds, blowing
Alonsa into fragments as all that
was found of him was his heart. up

but fragments.
