The Reclamation Survey.
Supervisor Barnard, of the
National bureau of geological
surv ys, has been in Rockwall
the ]>ist week, with surveyor
McNair and a corpse of survey-
found and mapped the exact
course of the river, including all
turns and windings of t b e
stream, and will also show a
complete system of the elevati-

flowed area and lllood water

PAUL WORKING FOR MINERS.
J. W. Paul is noAv
m-
ors, checking up the work done!tomSi This work is being done
in the preliminary topographic j entire]y under the personal dir-
survey. A slight error of a few
inch s in elevation was found on
going over the transcripts. It
was such an error as would
have been of no consequence to
the ordinary or private interests,
but the government requires
absolute correctness i n this
work, as it is to stand as a per-
manency, therefore the neces-
sity for finding and correcting
the error. It was readily found
and straightened out by Mr. Mc-
Nair, and now that part of the
work is completed and correct.
Mr. Barnard has put fourth
several parties in the field on the
East Fork Survey to make the
next maps, which is called the
plain table survey. One of these
parties is worldnur out of Rock
wall, one out of Wylie, one out
Forney, one out of Mesquite and
Garland. This work will take
several weeks, a n d perhaps
months to complete. By it will be
night.
Mrs. Maggie Thomas and chil-
. , . . , . _ Ellr0Pe j dren of Mesquite, are visiting E.
studying various plans m European 1
stations for Ihe protection of miners,
at the instigation of the govern-
ection of supervisor Barnard,
and he will be kept busily in
this lield and others that are be-
ing worked as it is.
When Mr. Barnard gets this
plain table work completed, Mr.
Stiles, as commissioner of State
Levee and Drainage work, will
put a force of civil engineers in
the field to locate levees and
make plans and specifications
for their buildings.
The survey for the purpose of
reclaming these bottom lands has
been progressing in a manner that
may seem slow to the ordinary
observer but is being done
surely and well, so that when
completed to be a perfect piece
of work, with no guessing left
for the people to do along any
line of reclaiming the overfilow
lands.—Rock wall Sncces s.

Mr. G. II. Poynter has been
ment. This new work of training \ down with pneumonia, but is bet-
miners for rescue work will be done
under the direction of Geor ge 0.
Smith. A corps of men in each min-
ing section are to be trained and
taught how to use the oxygen hel-
met. This device permits arti-
ficial breathing for two hours in the
most poisonous gas known. The
men are to be trained in an air tight
room in gases that do not support
life and are given a drill in the uso
of the helmets under such condi-
tions as would be likely to obtain in
a mine where an accident had oc-
curred. The rescue experts will
form a kind of brigade which will
respond instantly to any call for
service.
