WILL SUBMIT QUESTION
Council Considers Ordinance Granting
Franchise to Heating Company,
Which Will Go Before People For
Vote at Coming City Election.

The city council. Monday night, re-
ceived for consideration the franchise
ordinance of the Peterson. Heat. Light
& Water Company. of Des Moines,
which is DESTROYS of establishing a
plant here to provide steam heat to
patrons thruout the city The ord-
nance was amended as per suggestions
of the city solicitor who had investi-
gated it carefully. The Des Moines
concern asks for d twenty-five year
franchise and authority to present the
question to the voters. 1t proposes to
build a central heating plant and to
lay conGuits for the carrying of steam
using, always, as far as is practica-
bic, the alleys of the city in which to
lay the conduits. The heating plant
is to be constructed some place in the
business part of town.
1t is proposed by the company to
begin the work of building by July
l. and to have the plant ready for OPP
GRAFTON, and at least one mile of pipe
laid. by December 15: 1905. 1t does
not ask for an exclusive franchise.
Public and private heat is to be fur
nished, ut rates to be established later
by the council, providing the franchise
is granted by the voters.
The ordinance was passed to its
second reading. and resolution by
Mr. Abbott. authorized the submission
of the question to the voters at the city
election on March 81. Ex-Governor
jackson is a director of the Peterson
company. and Hon. Sidney "A. Foster,
of Des Moines, is treasurer. The plans
for the plant We're exhibited to the

Judiciary Committee of Council Re-
ports Adversely to Paving Certifi :
Gates.
All the regular meeting of the city
council Monday night Chairman Alb
bolt. of the Judiciary committee. re-
ported adversely ill the matter of sur
render to Ely & Dunn. contractors on
the South First avenue paving, the
certificates for that street, as request
ed mt Il recent meeting of the coun-
Gil The committee reported that the
legal phases of the matter had been
looked into carefully, and that City
Solicitor Van Law had advised the
council against delivering the certifi-
Gates until the city had been receipted
in full for all claims against the inn
provemenl Mr. ABBOTT said the COM
mittee believed that the delivering of
the certificates to the contractors
could not be legally done, and recon-
mended that the resolution presented
at Il recent meeting not be adopted.
The written opinion of the city solicit
tor WAS also read by the chairman of
the committee. and upon the adoption
of the report, there was a unanimous
vote of aye.
Shortly following this action Coun-
Gilman Henry, who had previously
presented a communication from the
attorneys of Ely & Dunn. introduced
Il resolution authorizing the city clerk
to turn over to Ely & Dunn all GER
tificates for the South First avenue
paving. after thirty days from Feb
ruary 1, and that the clerk draw war
rants for the payment of the inter-
sections less the cost that had been
incurred by the city in relaying the
paving. in the amount of s2,173.90. Mr.
Henry moved the adoption of the res
olution, but Mr.. Webster rose to a
point of order claiming that the iden-
teal question had been previously
disposed of by the adoption of the re-
port of the judiciacy committee. This
resolution could not be adopted unless
the previous action would be rescind-
ed, and as long, as the city solicitor
ell should stand by that. AS far as
the warrants We're concerned, they had
already been drawn on the improve
ment fund. but the certificates would
not be delivered to the contractors UNI
til the city had received it's receipt in
full for claims. Mayor Jones ruled Mr..
Henry out of order.
One of the attorneys for the contrac-
tors addressed the council at some
length, and reiterated the statement
made at the other meeting, when the
original resolution was introduced, to
the effect that the city was driving
the contractors into a lawsuit. The
only difference between the original
and that introduced by Mr..
Henry Monday evening and declared
out of order. is that the thirty day
limit for signing waivers is given.

The Largest coIored Company in the
World Coming Friday.

fifty people and includes such men as
S. Fl. Dudley. John Bailey Ed Green,
Jerry Mills, and Lawrence Chenaut;
and among the women are Marion
Smart, Hattie Hopkins, jeanette Eos
ter and others. The production is d
gorgeous one and the costumes and
scenery are the handsomest of their
kind.
The singing and dancing in this en-
tertainment are we'll known features
and from the time the curtain goes
up until it's final fall there is a sue
cession of the popular melodies, in
terspersed with gems from the grand
operas. Among the vocalists of the
organization may be mentioned Mile.
Hopkins, whose range of voice and
sweetness of tone is the wonder of the
musical profession. AS the singing is
feature of THE Smart Set" so is
also the dancing. The eccentric dane
ing of such comedians as S. Fl. Dud-
ley, John Bailey and Jerry Mills. is
only made the more side-spltting by
the graceful and pretty dances of the
women of the company.
The extravaganza in which the COM
pany appears. is called "a Southern
Enchantment." The play is musical.
of course, and more or less spectacu-
lar. too. Miss Smart as Mrs. Warl-
