FIGURE 8 COASTER
Commenced Operation at the
Watch Tower Friday
Afternoon.
NEW POPULAR AMUSEMENT
Will be the Novelty Of the Three Cit.
les During the Summer Season
Concerts Begin Sunday.

While the Black Hawk Watch Tower
has been open for several weeks. and
nearly every night so far there have
been private parties and dances, the
amusement devices have not been in
operation. Yesterday afternoon the
new $4,000 figure s roller coaster was
completed, and set in operation.
There were six cars in operation dur.
ing the afternoon and evening, running
continually in order to get the ma
chinery in good running order by Sun
day. The figure devise has been de-
scribed at some length in these col
umns. The Muir & Hepler company
of Dus Quenes. Pa, are the owners,
and have ten year lease at the Tow
er. That the structure is TO be per
manent can readily be seen in the
manner in which it is built, and the
quality of the material used. With
all of the big heavy cars. filled with
passengers, in operation on the tracks,
there is not the least culver of the
frame work of the structure.
Go 100 Feet.
The cars traverse the distance of
! 800 feet in few seconds more than
a minute. and it is expected that when
the machinery is worn a little the trip
will be made in less than a minute.
Ones sensation the first time he goes
over the tower at the starting point,
and starts rapidly toward the first
curve. is peculiar. No thought is Civ

may be viewed from the height of the
upper track of the figure. The first
trip one does not get any idea of it's
possibilities for sightseeing. so intent
is the passenger on the car and it's

figure three times and back TO the land.
ing station, one wonders just what the
country looked like from that high
point, and in order to find out another
trip is made. BY the time the second
flight over the track is completed one
enjoys the beauties of the surrounding
country. One can see for miles in
every direction. the best view being
from the tower. looking toward the
Moline locks of the canal, which are
clearly seen.
All Is Safe
There is no more danger in the cars
than in an ordinary street car. and the
roller coaster will undoubtedly prove
the most popular attraction of the three
cities.
First Concert.
Tomorrow the first concert of the
season at the Tower is to be given by
Ogden's orchestra. After Decoration
day. which is to be a special day 1t
