~


At a recent meeting of the school
board in this city the a~dvisability of put
ting in steam heating fixtures and new
water closets or improved make in the
school building was talked over. A COM
mittee composed of Conrad kcirs and H.
B.. Davis was appointed ard these gen.
tlemen are now active in securing plans,
etc. A representative of the A. G. NJ.
company OF Anaconda was here Thurs
day looking the matter over. 1t is a
most commendable move, and should the
people here be called upon to vote for a
special tax to complete the Improve
ments, it would undoubtedly carry al
most unanimously. By all means let us
have the Improvements.
Noteworthy improvements are going
OH at the Warm Springs Insane asylum
at present in the way of a large new hos
pital building. The structure will be To-
Gated just northeast of the present inn
provements, 90X120 feet in dimensions,
and, aside. from the necessary reception
and office rooms, there will be accommo-
dations for 100 bed patients. 1t will be
equipped with the latest heating and
plumbing furnishings, and when COM.
pleted will be of. great satisfaction to
both the owners and the unfortunate pa
tients.
