 The pumping station Is small, one room building with re-enfOrCed con- crete walls. floor and roof. the latter covered with tile. All windows are or wired glass in metal frames. There IS d stauGpipe with fifty feet of hose and nozzle in the station. and on the street.. within l5O feet. are one high pressure and one dOmeAtic pressure hydrant There are two ten-inch, fOur-stage centrifugal pumps. each direct connect ed to 375 horsepower three phase, 2.2OO volt motor, The rated capacity of each pump is 2.5OO gallons per min ute against lIJ pounds discharge pres sure at the pump. The suction head varies between six and nine feet. Each pump has a separate fourteen inch suction pipe and ten inch discharge pipe with automatic relief valve. The latter pipe increases to twelve inch under the floor of the station. and the two join through a In front of the station into one twenty Inch main. The pumps are prlmed through a four inch pipe from the domestic system or from a small centrifugal pump which Is used to maintain about fifteen pounds pressure In the mains.
 Good protection Is provided in the congeSted value and mercantile sec tions and most of the warehouse dis tricts included within the fire limits. As shown by tests. the full capacity of the pumps. 5000 gallons per minute. can be delivered about any block at pressures sufficient for powerful streams. Each pump will furnish pro lection to the section covered about equal to that provided by four second size engines. and the total from both pumps is sufficient for any but the most serious fires. For such fires am, ole supplementary protection Is pro vided by the domestic water supply and the fire engine service.

GOETHALS TO RETIRE

IL Is reported from Washington that, coincident with his report that the slide at the Panama canal have beeA permanently stopped and that thsrs will be no further iUterT7Ip- tion ct transit through the canal. Maj. Gen. GOethals has asked that he be paced upon the retired list of the army, in accordance with the terms cf a special act of congress, authorizing such retirement on his own request.
 Gen GOethals is 5S years of age, eight years younger than Earl Kitchener was at the time of his death. Should a problem arise heIe, such as confronted England at the Otbreak of the war, Goe- theIs. apparently, Is the best quail fled man in the American army to deal with it. It is therefore ap- parent that the retirement of Gen. Goethals Is a decided loss to the country.
 Kitchener's great record was made as an organizer. While Gen. GOethars reputation tn this country is based upon his achievements as au engineer, having In charge the greatest work of construction eyer undertaken by any nation in any stage Of the worlds history, it was t9 his ability as an organizer that

The arrival of the native schooner Emily, of St. Michael, yesterday brought another of those tales of the sea which make the landsmen shudder at the vicissitudes frequently suffered by those who go down to the sea in ships. The little vessel and it's crew of six men, all of whom are natives, have. according to the story told by those aboard had an experience of the most narrowing character during the past eight or nine days and have been storm tossed and buffeted by angry seas in a way that one is forced 10 wonder that they survive.
 In addition to being roughly handled by the sea, the crew, for a period of eight days, were compelled to go without water and for six days prior to their arrival in the roadsted from Sledge Island they had no food of any character. None of the men speak English and their story, as related through d native interpreter is as follows: The Emily was in Hooper Bay waiting a favorable wind to sail for the Yukon when caught in a fierce gale on Augt F which blew the schooner to sea. The crew tried vainly to get the anchor to hold but without success. once loosened from its moorings the gale bore the little vessel and it's crew rapidly to the west. After hard struggle with the tempest, they arrived at St. Lawrence Island but could not land owing to the storm. After cruising around the island for d while the vessel was finally headed for the mainland and, after being nearly swamped a number of times by the furious seas, finally arrived off Sledge Island yesterday. There was no water aboard the schooner when leaving Hooper Bay and only enough

Messrs. Peterson, Winkler and Thompson. arrived from Dime creek yesterday and bring excellent reports concerning the bench strike reported from that section some time ago. The paystreak is said to be much larger than was at first supposed and has been found to extend to the third tier of benches on the left limit. The best pay is said to have been discovered by Anderson and Valentine on the third tier. The paystreak is reported to average about three feet in depth and to carry values up to twenty cents. Pay is also reported to have been found on the right limit though of much lower grade. The new arrivals express themselves as well pleased with the outlook and predict that the creek will continue to be a good pro- ducer for long time to come. A shortage of water is slightly hamper

Oliver King. patriclan, becomes interested in chorus girl who fools him. Learning her true character, he gives her up, but thereafter is black mailed with baby. Later the girl dies. King raises the child, boy,but refuses to acknowledge his parenthood. He then marries a girl who knows nothing of this incident The boy, grown, is expelled from college and takes up his residence at the former dicted to narcotics, is visited by Mrs. King and while drunk attacks her. In the struggle she kills him. The coro- ner gives a verdict of suicide. Next day. Mrs. King confesses to her hus band. Thinking the boy his, he turns from her The chorus girls mother comes to collect money, and when King refuses. she tells him that the boy was not his own and threatens to, tell the world of his ridiculous posi- ton. The effect on King is amazing. He is glad the boy was not his son. He goes to his wife who has become a mother and touching reeoncilia- ton follows.

provisions to last two days. This possible but by the morning of the third day was exhausted. From that time on until their arrival off the Is- land not a morsel of anything passed the lips of the crew. At Sledge Island, some native fishermen were en- countered and they were enabled to secure a half sack of flour and a few dried salmon, the first food they had had in six days. The natives also told them how to get to Nome and they at once set out, arriving here yesterday afternoon. After anchoring off the sandspit, the crew came ashore and were taken by natives to the Coast Guard station. The men were in an absolutely destitute condition and almost exhausted from their long privation and battle with the elements. Capt. Ross provided them with a change of clothing and also with food before turning them over to the Bur eau of Education this morning. The coast guard also lowed the schooner into Snake river where it was found that she was leaking considerably. As the crew are anxious to return to their home at Hooper bay the Emily will probably start on her return tonight.
