  • ROLF E. PETERS and MARY ANN CHANCE INTRODUCTION D.D
    "The Lost Years"—1902-1904 ROLF E. PETERS and MARY ANN CHANCE ABSTRACT: Cyrus Lerner, an investigative lawyer, produced a report on chiropractic that identified the period of 1902-1904 as "The Lost Years" of chiropractic. This paper is an attempt to fill in that period based on later published research and our own investigations. INDEXTERMSiMeSH: CHIROPRACTIC; HISTORICAL ARTICLE. Chiropr J Aust 2003; 33: 2-10. INTRODUCTION Clarence N. Flick, DC, of St Albans, NY established the Thus the D.D.

The Foundation believed that to leave for Califomia in 1902, apparently not giving any 36 years of failed efforts to achieve licensure for the profession reason. in the state of New York were due to the difficult-to-challenge perception that the chiropractic claim was without scientific B.J.

    SELECTED DEATH NOTICES FROM JACKSON COUNTY, KANSAS, NEWSPAPERS VOLUME V 1900-1902 COMPILED BY DAN FENTON 2003 INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the time period covered by this volume, there were four newspapers being published in Holton, The Holton Weekly Recorder, The Holton Weekly Signal, The Tribune, and The Kansas Sunflower. The Soldier Clipper, and the Whiting Journal continued in their respective cities. In Circleville, the Circleville News ceased publication on November 8, 1900, and was soon replaced by the Jackson County World, which began publication on December 7, 1900. In Hoyt, the Hoyt Sentinel began publication on April 12, 1902. In Denison, the Denison Herald began publication on September 25, 1902. As noted in the previous volumes, not every death reported in these newspapers is included in this book, only those seeming to have some connection with Jackson county. A death notice could appear in different newspapers and from different sources within a.paper. One principal notice is listed with excerpts from other accounts being used only when there is differing or additional information. Accolades to the deceased success as a Christian, parent and citizen have been deleted when possible, because of space consideration. Three ellipses denote the deletion of part of a sentence and four that of a sentence or even paragraphs. Each death notice is numbered consecutively and it is this number that appears in the index, not the page number. This is an all surname index that I hope will help the researcher identify family relationships that otherwise would be hidden. The index begins on page 893.

  • Constituting Governance:The US Army in the Philippines, 1898-1920S
    The Newsletter | No.55 | Autumn/Winter 2010 26 The Focus: Urbanisation in East Asia Constituting governance: the US Army in the Philippines, 1898-1920s This essay looks at the transformation of Manila and its peri- phery over two decades, beginning with the American occupa- tion in 1898. The US Army’s success in pacifying the provinces is frequently associated with its ‘reconcentration’ of the rural population, which cut off the insurgency’s economic and material support. What is not recognised is that this was a spatial intervention and that it is equally important to examine how the state was constituted in order to understand how its technical or infrastructure programme worked. When the United States staged a theatre of war in the Philippines, the city was the initial site of operations. The offi cial end of the Philippine-American War in 1903 transformed indigenous resistance into a guer- rilla war with important implications for state superstructure and infrastructure. This study argues that the US military, represented by the Philippines Division, contributed to the early establishment of highly centralised state-initiated urban and regional reforms, including the initial conceptualisation of regional autonomy and the later integration of Mindanao. Sources of authority It is important to establish the depth of the Philippines Division’s involvement in post war rebuilding eff orts. The First Philippine Commission, appointed by US President William McKinley on January 20, 1899, came on an investigative mission. The Second Philippine Commission (September 1900-August 1902) had legislative and executive powers to begin organising a system for governing the archipelago.

  • This Is a Side-Hill Park, Lying in Front of the Kew York Uni- Versity, and It Was Partially Cleaned up and a Road Built Through It During the Year R 901
    UNIVERSITY PARK. (Area, 3 acres; acquired in 1901.) This is a side-hill park, lying in front of the Kew York Uni- versity, and it was partially cleaned up and a road built through it during the year r 901. During the present year a new retain- ing-wall has been built along the whole westerly side of this park 628 feet in length, and all of the ground throughout this park has been cleaned; the westerly bank has been graded and sloped to meet the wall; both ends of the park, which had not been cleared before, have been cleaned up; all the old boulders removed, and the intersections of the drives and the west slope have been planted ~vitIishrubs. The road has been resurfaced, drains repaired, and new di-ains made where needed. (Area, 12 acres; acquired in 1901.) Kothing was done to this park previous to the present year in the way of development, and the same had been cofiplained of as exceedingly unhealthy, on account of the lack of drainage, stagnant water remaining there during a large portion of the year. Early in the present season this park was thoroughly underdrained, and connections made with a sewer which passes through One Hundred and Ninety-second street, requiring the building of over 2,000 lineal feet of vitrified pipe and stone drains. One Hundred and Ninety-second street has been constructed across the park from Jerome avenue to Creston avenue, a distance of 660 feet. 2,880 lineal feet of rubble walks have been laid. In the building of the road and the grading of the park, where old open drains existed, several thousand loads of material have been used.

  • Weather Bureau/National Weather Service History in New York
    Weather Bureau/National Weather Service History in New York Location Type Years Details Albany SigSvc 1873- Although official Signal Service observations began in Albany 12/22/1873 WBAS present at the Dudley Observatory, scattered temperature records for the area WBO date as far back as 1796. The office was at the U.S. Customs House WSO when the Weather Bureau took over. An airport station was established WSFO in January 1930, and became the official climatological station in June WFO 1938; the two offices were consolidated at the airport in 1964. Upper-air observations began at the airport in October 1955, initially 4 times a day, then reduced to twice a day in 1957. A WSR-3 radar was commissioned 11/12/1958, and replaced by WSR-74C 7/27/1977. The office was designated as a forecast office in 1971. The office was relocated to the University of Albany as part of the NWS modernization. Bear Mountain WBO 1938-1953 The Weather Bureau took over the station at Bear Mountain in 1938, although the observations date back to 1932 in nearby Peekskill. The station was reduced to operating 12 hours a day beginning in 1948. The office was closed May 19, 1953.
