HOSPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
Additional Equipment and Increased
Facilities 10 Be Added.

Doctors Alexander Hunter and
Max Dorland have purchased a con-
trolling interest in the Occur dAlene
hospital and will hereafter conduct
and manage the institution.
The two physicians contemplate a
number of changes with reference to
the hospital and its service. IL viii
be their aim and purpose to make It
q modern and up-to-date institution
In all respects, so that II will be no
longer necessary for any physician to
take his patients to the hospitals at
Spokane for medical treatment or
surgical operations. The hospital
now contains about 35 beds and 10
private rooms. Both can be increased
as business demands It. The rooms
are TO be remodeled more or less and
additional furniture secured for
them and made convenient and COM
Portable In every way possible. A
new sterlizing apparatus and operat-
ing table will be added to the equip
ment and a laboratory for ordinary
tests. both chemical and microscope
cal. will be installed.
The efficiency Of the nurse service
is to be improved. The services OF
Miss Effa McCoomb have been Sc
cured and she will occupy the posi-
tion of head nurse. She is a gradu-
ate of the Minneapolis School for
Nurses, was for two years In charge
of the surgical department OF the
Saltwater hospital at Saltwater,
Mimi, and comes highly recommend
ed. II is also the intention OF the
physicians, as soon as 1t is possible,
TO conduct a training school for
nurses in connection with the hos
pital. Miss McCoomb will be In
charge OF the school, and physicians
of the city will be invited to deliver
lectures to the school on various
medical subjects and nurse work In
general. Two of these lectures are
TO be given each week
The institution will be of a public
and not of a private. character and
an invitation is extended by the man.
agement to all physicians OF the city
to make an inspection OF the insti
tuition.

SEN. HEPBURN BACKS UP

WASHINGTON, April 2. After
declaring he would prevent enact
ment of the bill to give the Benton
Power company the privilege to dam
the Snake river at Five Mile rapids
in Washington, and with complete
power in his hands to do so under
the rules of the senate. Senator Hey
burn today receded from his position,
permitting the bill to go to a vote.
when 1t was carried ~ to 4. all the
northwest senators excepting him
voting for it.
Debate began at o'clock this aft
ernoon. When the regular business
had been disposed of Senator Hey
bur offered an amendment requiring
the Benton company to maintain al
ways the locks. which they must
build, open to all boats, paying all
expenses and specifically STIMULATING
that the government must never be
asked for a dollar in CONNECTION
Herewith. He continued a running
debate with Senator Piles. saying he
expected TO witness before long the
utter failure Of the Benton company
to carry out the plans to build the
dam and locks.
Senator Perkins had the clerk read
the presidents message, saying he
would veto all bills giving away
such privileges without Limitation OF
the life OF the franchise or conpensa-
ton for what the franchise conveyed.
Senator Piles argued that this bill did
not come within the puFvlew Of that
message. as It had passed the house
before the message was sent to con-
gress. Senators Hepburn and Teller
argued AT length against the presi-
dents theory that the federal govern
ment has the right to charge for the
waters. holding that such function
belongs solely to states under this
form Of government.
