SALARIES OF
PROFESSIONAL MEN

There is no concealing the fact that
on the whole neither pay nor pros
poets of the engineering profession
have of late been particularly encour-
aging. Technical pursuits of all kinds
are, as a whole, underpaid. Yet in
comparing the rewards of the en-
gineering professions, the situation
does not appear by any means as bad
as it might be.
The average clergyman, as a matter
O. cold-blooded statistics, gets less
salary than the average motorman or
conductor of similar length of service
on a frst.class electric railway.
In law the average earnings derived
from strictly professional work are
probably little, if any, higher than in
engineering, although the exceptional
lawyer unquestionably makes very
much more than the exceptional en-
gineer, or has done so up to the pres
ent time.
Medicine is notoriously less we'll
paid profession than law, and particu-
larly as regards the younger men, al
though those of high reputation can
show large yearly earnings. Doctors
with incomes over $4,000 yearly out
number engineers. although the aver
age in the two professions is probably
not far from the same.
The average Young engineer at the
age of 30 is faring quite as well as
his brother in any of the older learned
professions. The big prizes in engi-
neering are comparatively scarce, but
if one reads the signs of the times
Alright the outlook in this respect is
steadily growing better. Every large
enterprise in the future will have to
depend on high grade of technical
ability in executive positions. High
finance is somewhat less popular than
is was, and tn eplain stockholders are
beginning to look about for men of
tried ability to take the place of those
who are distinguished as clever Jug
glers of securities. - Engineering

N. RF|NHART BUYS
BRIDGE STREET LOT

Yesterday deal was closed In
Winnemucca business property which
was the most important for many
years, when M. Reinhart purchased
the Staunton property on Bridge
street. The price paid was not made
public, but is said to have been be
tween $4,000 and $4,000. The lot
has frontage of so feet on Bridge
street by 125 in depth, and contains a
Double store building, one-half of
which is of two stories.
When seen this morning by Silver
State representative and asked what
he intended to do with his new pur-
chase, Mr.. Reinhart replied:
81 have had lease on the proper
tv for several years, with a long time
yet to run. However, | had made up
my mind that the town required a
frstclass meeting place for lodges
and clubs, and as this is the ideal To-
cation for the purpose, ] determined
to buy the property and fit it up.
A force of workmen will start to
work within the next few days and
will be through by May |. The upper
side of the first floor will be fitted up
for a ballroom, with a banquet room
on the lower side, with kitchen, pan
try, ladies and mems waiting rooms,
etc. A narrow hallway will lead from
the street to broad stairway in the
rear, at the foot of which will be
waiting room for candidates. The
entire second floor will be devoted to
large lodge room, which will be fit
ted up with modern furniture, fine
carpets and draperies. When com
pleted the various lodges, societies
and clubs of the town will have per
manent home to which they may in
vite their friends to banquet and par
ties and entrrtain them without leav-
ing the building.
ri have had several applications
for leases of the premises for CONNER
cial purposes, but decided to fit it up
as stated, although it will pay much
less money!
