POPULATION Of
CITY IS 100000,
DIRECTORY SHOWS
Coming Census Expected to Con-
firm Figures, Proving
Great Growth.

A big surprise awaits Newarkers
when the result of the official United
States census of 1910 Is published if
the data obtained by the publishers OF
the local city directory for this year
is a criterion to go by.
Newarkers will ind they have a city
we'll over the 400, 900 mark. 100000 in
habitants being about the number
shown by the figures compiled by the
Lee & Price Company after an exhaus-
tive and careful made in con-
nectlon with the city directory for
1910.
The new directory contains 100000
names, an increase of ALP over last
year, when 1865 s were listed. This
gain means al increase in actual pop
ulation of 1896 persons In a year.
Experience in all parts Of the coun-
try, n particularly In the larger cities,
has shown hat about one name in
three of people actually living in a
city appears in the directory. This
ratio of three is explained by the fact
that only heads of families and men
over Il years Of age are listed. Minors
and married women are not included,
only widows being named.
In Newark the ratio of three Is liable
to be a low one, as there Is such a
large foreign population here that 1t Is
practically impossible to make a COM
plete Many uneducated per-
sons consider the directory canvasser
in the same light as they do a tax as
SCISSOR and fail to give correct informa-
ton. In many cases they deliberately
lie and claim that they have no resi-
dence in Newark. Directory canvassers
find great difficulty in getting any in
formation at all in districts populated
by certain foreigners.
For this reason the Newark popula-
ton may prove to be even more than
400, 900, when the complete census taken
by the government this year Is compiled
and announced.
The last State census, taken in 1906,
gave Newark a population of 2S3, 2S9.
The 1900 United States census gave q
population of 246,070, an Increase be-
tween 1900 and 1905 of 1929, or at the
rate of "a. 43S for the decade between
1900 and 1910. According to these fig
ures the city today has a population of
800, sos.
But Newark has grown much faster
han even it's residents realize, and the
figures Of the directory publishers verify
this to a startling extent. The figures
show an increase of $4,000 during the
five years since 1905. Even if this is
cut in half it will show Newark with a
population of $4,000 in this years GEN.
sus, an increase of 100. 900 persons in the
last decade.
One thing seems assured and that is
that Newark will show a larger per-
centage of increase in the 1910 census
than any other large city in the United
States. 1t is a certainty that no city
of 100, 900 population or more in 1900 will
show anywhere near the growth thai
Newark has In the past ten years.

SURGICAL SCIENCE
Boston Physician Performs OPP
GRAFTON on Brain While
Patient Laughs at Jokes.

BOSTON, March pa worldwide
revolution in surgery. especially that
of the brain and the head, is promised
in the discovery of a new method of
producing conscious anesthesla, an
nouncement of which has just been
made by DIR. John J. Hurley, of MARI
borough street. The new treatment
is both painless and bloodless and no
other form of aneSthetic is required.
There are nc dangerous after-effects to
be feared, and the patient, while in
full possession of every faculty, is alb
solutely free from all sensation of dis
comfort.
In the case which Or. Hurley reports
in the current issue of the Boston
Medical M Surgical journal, the pa
tent was a woman of 40. There was
only one stage at which there was the
slightest interruption to threaten the
complete success of the demonstration.
That came when, at a critical point In
the operation, a chance remar ap-
pealed to the humor of the patient and
she laughed so heartily that it was
necessary to suspend all work for sew
eral minutes, until she had regained
her omposure
One important and radical point in
which the new method differs from the
old rules governing operations Is that
the patient takes a full meal just be-
fore and Immediately after the opera
ton. The Importance of his lies in the
fact hat in this way all danger of
cocaine intoXication is avoided; for
while cocaine is an ingredient in the
injection DR.. Hurley has compounded,
he has succeeded in neutralizing the
after effects which hitherto have tended
to make it's use so undesirable in many
cases,
There is another point in which DR..

TROUBLE BREWING AMONG
PUMP WORKS EMPLOYEES

Trouble is brewing at the Interna-
tional Steam Pump Works at Harrison.
For some time there has been discon--
tent among the 400 moulders employed
there and several weeks ago there was
some talk of a strike. Things took a
peaceful turn, however, and nothing
further was heard until the last few
days.
Part of the trouble seems to be over
several new automatic moulding ma
chimes that have been installed. These
machines dc the work of three men and
can be operated by a novice. 1t is the
intention of the company to install
these machines in the new extension
that is being added to the works.
Charles Schafer, foreman of the ma
chine moulders, said today that the
matter was under discussion by the
heads of the Ironworkers' Union and
the officials of the company in New
York.
The company officials will say moth
ing regarding the trouble.

Hurley's method differs from other Ell
forts in the same direction of producing
conscious anesthesia. Unlike that or
DR.. Jonnesco, which was tried in this
country recently, it does not require
an injection of a foreign fluid into the
spinal cord, and this is a step which, no

SMEATOh CITY WILL
 BE THE NAME OF 1T

They say that 8 new town is aborning over in the Kuskokwim at the mouth of Crooked river about Is miles below Georgetown and there is every chance in tho world that it will be named Smeaton city, after Jack Smeaton, who with John Larson, shares the honor of discovery of part of the new placer sec tion of the Kuskokwim.
 Smeaton and his partners have fine, large cabin at Smeaton city, Elmer Fellmet, formerly of Cinema and last summer an operator on the Celene fraction, is also building there, while many others are contemplating resi- dences at that point in the belief that it is destined to rival if not outshine Georgetown as the centre of civiliza- tion and art.

QUESTION
 EXTRATERRITORIAL

The townsite question on the kuskok vim seems determined not to allow its light to be hidden un der bushel. It wants to grow, expand and multiply, wherefore, II can be definitely stated that a new place at the mouth of Black, Crook ed or Donlan, or whatever 1t is, about 20 miles below Georgetown, claims now to be the only and original, simon pure tonsite.
 According to the statement made by Geo. Smith who recently re turned from that section, the mouth of Black river is an ideal place for town, and much nearer to the real diggings than George town can possibly be. This section is also described as being nearer to Iditarod City than Georgetown and much more accessible.
 At Georgetown itself, the old controversy about the upper and lower towns still continues, all ot which indicates that there will be merry times next season, i'll the real estate business along the line

CASEY OPENS IN
 BLAZE OF GLORY

Delayed but few days after his ar rival on the last boats, Billy Casey, the genial host of the Northern hotel and saloon of Fairbanks opened his new joy palace at Flat City last Wednesday forenoon and recorded probably the biggest day and night sale of tangle- foot that has been pulled off in this section since the first boat stuck her nose around you bend.
 Starting in during the forenoon hours, Casey had good headway on by eventide, and the way they did hit it up after that was caution. The big saloon next to Stanley's roadhouse was packed to the doors with anxious en- thusiasts who were afraid they wouldn't get chance to spend their money be- fore the fre-water gave out. Some of them stood at the back and threw their money up, taking their drinks through straw.
 Along toward the mystic hour of midnight when the whangdoodla stirred drowsily in its sleep, somc body resented the viewpoint Of another in discussing the correlation of the eso- teric aesthetecism, and to show his re- sentmSut bounced bunch of lives of the prognathan promontories of his vis-a-vis. This little unpieasantry was quickly righted, however while the recipient of the favor explained that he had not meant to imply that the San scrit renaissance had been at all per meated with the taint of immaculate immortality.
 There were four bartenders on the job when things were at their best and they were feeding the cash regis ter like bunch of harvesters in busy season. Casey, with the smile that won't come off, stood at the head of the table, or the bar, or whatever it is you call that long thing that you lean against, and greeted old friends of whom he has legion. Everyone was glad to see him, and of course everyone

NEWSPAPER MEN
 MIGRATE HERE

Although one of them admits that he has sworn off on the newspaper business in spite of the fact that he is one of the first to start a paper in Alaska, it is almost cinch that Loss Bernard and Wilbur Ward will be mixed up in journalism again somewhere in this neck of the woods.
 Bernard brought the old Tanana Tribune plant of Fairbanks down with him, including lynotype and cylinder press. That is, he brought it as far as Holy Cross where it is probably frozen in by this time.
 Ward, who was the publisher of the Panama Star during the recent cam paign, says he is through with the business and just wants to do little mining. They both arrived on the last boats after trip of month from Fair banks, but the plant couldn't make it. Therefore it is doubtful if additional newspaper machinery will figure in the life of this camp this winter.
 As chief printer for the News Miner for the last year Benard has kept a steady finger on the public pulse. He reports many changes in newspaper dom in that city. Fred Heilig, editor of the Times, has left for the Outside. He was succeeded for time by R. s. Mcdonald, who later resigned to cast | his fortunes with the Alaska Citizen, published by Caskey, Bellows and Fil- bin. H. c. Jackson is reporting for the Times and the News Miner, Fen ThOmp- son is still handing out the hot stuff for the later journal, while Dad" Tender son, late deputy clerk of the district court and an old newspaper man is do ing the same for the Times.
 They are all boosting for quartz uE there and the district is experiencing distinct revival in activity from this cause. There will doubtless be good output this winter from the Cinema mill which is just started in reducing some of the rich ores they have there.

THERE ARE 4 FEW
 SHORTAGES THERE

For the benefit of those who are going across the divide this fall to prospect and who contemplate pur- chasing their outfits at Georgetown, it might be stated that there are some things short there, and that it would be better to make some purchases here.
 According to reports regarding the first tlip of the Quickstep the Kuskok- vim Commercial Co. was shy of dried fruits, butter and spices, Baking pow der and soda was limited, while beans and yeast were practically out of the market. Rubber shoes are hard to get and stoves and stoyepipe are considered very precious.
 This was the state of things follow ing the last trip of the steamer from Bethel, but the betting might be changed if she succeeds in landing an- other cargo. Still it is better to play CT the safe side and get what you need of these scarcitieS here.

 Win Free Gold Quartz

Incident to the quartz renaissance that is now taking place in the Fair banks district, comes the interesting story of the finding of rich quartz in the ballast of the Tanana Valley rail way near Ridgetop.
 The find had been made originally by Alois Fredrich. who made it known to H. B. Kettle, a representative of a London mining company, who is now visiting in the Tanana valley. The two searched along the track near the place where Fredrich had first discov- cred quartz and found pieces of rock carrying free gold that when pounded in mortar banned in such a manner as to prove the rock worth $l00 ton.
