OBITUARY.

William Edgar Goodell was born in
Troy, N. Y, July 4, 1889. Later he
moved with his parents to Illinois,
where he lived in Knoxville until he
left for Oregon with the family of
|. |. Dempsey in the year Of 1862.
Two years later, near Rickreall,
where they settled, he married their
daughter Julia.
They returned to Illinois and lived
there until 1874. While there their
eldest child, Grace, died at the age
of six. After returning to Oregon
they lived in the neighborhood of
Rickreall continuously with the ex-
ception of five years spent in business
at Independence.
For many years Mr.. Goodell was
owner of the Rickreall store, II. c..
Fox being for a number of years his
partner. "Uncle Billy" and his wife
left many warm friends all over Polk
county, and many came from lnde-
pendenee, Monmouth and the sur
rounding neighborhood to pay their
last respects to the last deceased.
There was always a welcome for ev-
cry one at their home, and the friends
who have entered their door, and sat
with them for chats, and partaken of
their hospitality, are legion.
Mr.. Goodell and wife were members
of the Methodist Episcopal church
since early in life, and with the ex-
eeption of the five years spent at In
dependence he was superintendent of
the Riekreall Sunday school from the
time it was organized up until little
over a year ago, having spent over
thirty years in that capacity.
His face had long been familiar and
will long be remembered at the little

Chromic Iron Ore.

Deposits of chronic iron ore occur in
Maryland and the adjacent portion of
Pennsylvania, in North Carolina and in
Wyoming, but the only deposits oper-
ated in the United States within re-
cent years are in California. Numerous
deposits have been reported in thirty.
two counties of that state according to
the United States geological survey,
and many of them could be worked if
the demand for the ore and its value
warranted exploitation. The available
deposits. with much in reserve, largely
exceed the local demand for refractory
material in field extending as far east
as the Rocky mountains.

WATER FILTER PLANTS.
Lack of Competent Operation a Men
ace to Public Health.

Lack or competent operation a men-
ace to Public Health.
Cities often spend thousands of dol
lars upon the construction Of water
publication plant or sewage disposal
works and then place in charge of its
operation political appointee with no
claim 10 technical knowledge. The
evils of this practice were commented
upon in recent paper by DR.. Allan j.
Mclaughlin of the United States pub.
lie health service. He said in part:
The greatest obstacle to proper op-
Grafton and control of plants has been
the difficulty of securing the right man
to place in charge of the plant. The
best type of man for this position is
graduate in sanitary engineering. He
will not only be conversant with the
mechanical details of the plant, but will
be able to adjust his chemicals accord
ing to the constituents and needs OF
the raw water. Most important OF all,
he will be able to make daily bacteri.
illogical examinations to determine the
efficiency of publication. Nearly all
the disasters due to sewage polluted
water supplies which have occurred
were due to lack of daily bacteriolog-
ical knowledge of the public supply OIL
the inefficient operation of plants by
unsiiIled men. The employment of
such a graduate is economy even in
small cities. s."-Engineering Record.

chicaao's Water Supply.

Three experts who have been study
ing the future sanitary policy of Chi
cago announce that the time has come
to consider the filtration of the city's
water supply from Lake Michigan,
which is often SO turbid as to be ex-
tremely diStasteful. The present sani-
tary quality of the water is not ques-
toned. but there is arising a demand
for clearer water than it is possible
to obtain without filtration with intake
cribs at any reasonable distance from

STRENGTH OF ROPE.
Manila as Strong as Steel Bar Of
Equal WEIGHT.

Of the flexible ropes suitable for pow.
er transmission, manila rope is just
as strong as a solid steel bar, weight
for weight, though only 1112 per cent
as strong per equal cross section.
Leather on the other hand. is emily
about per cent as strong as steel
bar of equal cross section and less than
40 per cent as strong per equal weight
of material, says an expert in Power.
Records show that rope manufac-
tured from the fiber of palms was used
in Egypt long before the days Of Chris
tianity. Such ropes were found In the
tombs of Beni-Hassan 5000 B. c. and
on the walls of these same tombs are
illustrations depicting the preparation
of hemp. Carvings found in tombs in
Thebes represent the process Of max
ing rope from thongs of leather, about
1900 B. c., and Assyrian sculptures of
about fifty years later show gigantic
hauling operations performed with
rope. These records are of particular
interest as indicative of the steps
through which rope manufacture pass
ed in the early ages.
The relative efficiency of manila rope
and leather betting for the transmis
sion of power is not directly proper
tional to their respective strengths,
however, as the internal construction
of hemp rope and a strip Of leather
differ greatly and very differently by
wear. Manila fbers from which the
rope is manufactured are usually from
eight to ten feet in length, are COM
posed of elongated cells that possess
great strength longitudinally, but are
comparatively weak transversely.
Leather, on the other hand, is about
equally strong in any direction, so that
the wear on such belt is mostly ex-
ternal In a manila rope the wear is
largely internal, the elongated fiber
cells being crushed together when pass
ing around sheave and breaking up
into short pieces. A wornout manila
rope. so far as its strength is concern
ed. may have the outward appearance
of an excellent rope, while internally |
its construction is but mass Of short. |
UTOhtu pulllCleS. lnc ahoNdpic "olh-
ing stress of a good leather belt is GUS
tomarily taken as 800 pounds per
square inch, or about one-tenth its ten
sile strength. In the course Of year
or so IL manila rope will lose about so
per cent of its original strength, aftel
which the weakening becomes more
gradual. Under such conditions it is
safe to figure on an allowable working
stress of about 2SS pounds per square
inch. or one-thirty- its tensile
strength.

Metal Stair Corners,

The hardest part of room or stair
way to clean is the corners, and these
always collect a good quantity of dirt.
Instead of removing the dirt each time.
a better plan is to fix the corner with a
triangular piece Of brass or copper, two
inches on each side, fastened into the
corner with one nail through the Gen.
ter. These metal pieces are especially
desirable In public buildings.
