REPORT SITE FOR CITY INcINEaA1oR
Board Of Health Recommend Its Erection
in Block 7, Near the Sand Pit,

| ~
Health Officer Grove was in at
tendance at the meeting of the city
fathers Tuesday evening and made
report in behalf of the Board OF
Health that they had made selec'
ton of site in Block Z, near the
Rooney sand pit alongside the Mt
Iron road, as the proper place for
the erection of the proposed city in.
cinerator.
The location apparently met with
approval of the body and the Board
of Health was instructed to obtain
price on the requisite number of
lots, while the matter of the size of
incinerator needed and the prospec-
tive purchase of same will come be-
fore the council at a subsequent
meeting.
The petition for the paving of Me-
saba avenue from Oak to Spruce
street, presented at a former meet
ing, was brought up by Alderman
Moilan, but inasmuch as the coun-
Gil had made no provision for funds
for such work this season it will
likely be left over to be cared for as
early as possible the coming year.
There will be a great amount of
other paving the coming year, Clev-
eland avenue and several of the
cross,streets being in line for per-
manent improvement.
The finance committee was in
structed to confer with the local
banks and arrange for the care of
the street commissioners time
checks on Saturday, that city en-
ployes might have coin with which
to properly celebrate the Fourth
and enjoy the festivities of the car
nival.
A communication from the city
attorney advised the council that
under the statutes and existing ordi-
nances the board of health had full
and complete power insofar as
necessary to protect the public
health in any manner deemed ad.
visable. This was the result of com.
plant made at prior meeting rela-
tive to certain patient suffering
with a contagious disease being on
the streets.
A petition from residents on Mesa
ba avenue between Oak and Spruce
was granted, and the request of
residents on other streets for sim
liar Accommodations were referred
back for signatures, inasmuch az
sprinkling is assessed against prop
erty abutting on the streets receiv-
ing the care.
P.McDonnell, who does an amount
of paving in the city, presented a
surety bond in the sum OF $29,95O,
which was accepted upon approval
of the mayor and city attorney.

Board Of Equalization in Session,

The Board of Equalization met at
the city hall Monday and has been
in session each afternoon since.
The work of Assessor Kroedahl
has met with general approval, the
figures submitted showing his work
to have been done in a fair and i'm.
partial manner. The total yalua.
ton of the city has been increased
upwards of 81 100000, but the conse.
quent lowering of the tax rate will
bring the individual tax levy below
that of last year.

MILL IMPROVEMENTS ARE COMPLETED
New Mill and PIaner Of Virginia 4 Rainy
Lake Company Put in Operation
MoaddY.

| The big new mill of the Virginia
& Rainy Lake Company, together
with the new planning mill and COM
plete plant, was placed in operation
Monday, making of the Virginia
plant of this company. the largest
lumber mill in the world today,
with daily capacity of close to
100000 feet.
The new mill, which replaces the
old mill torn down last fall, is 112x24O
feet, equipped with two bands and
two resaws, power for which is furn-
ished by a complement of fourteen
boilers in a new brick boiler house
54x168 and accompanying engines
in neat little engine room 48x68
feet, this equipment furnishing
power alike for the new mill and for
the thirty-two electrically driven
planers contained in the mammo 10Th
new planning mill in conjunction,
dimensions of the planer being
256x356 feet. The new dry kiln in
connection with the planer is 150x
$50 feet, the two buildings being
connected by a steel shed 40x225
feet, furnishing an opportunity to
run a train of cars under shelter tor
distance of over 900 feet for load.
ing purposes.
The new planer and dry kiln are
practically fre-proof, being of steel
construction, the planning mill be-
ing SO feet in heighth, and all refuse
from the building being blown into
a shaving vault 50x75 feet and 20
feet high to be burned.
In conjunction with the other mill
and attendant industry OF the com.
panY the opening of the mill and
new planer has added to the num-
ber of employees of the company
materially, upwards of 1900 men
now finding remunerative employ.
ment at the plant.
This number is augmented to a
great extent by the army of woods
men in the company's employ whose
earnings for the most part take
flight in Virginia, the total number
of men in the company's employ
being conservatively estimated at
1900 at the present time.
The importance of this industry
to Virginia cannot be over-estimat-
ed, and when it is considered the
company has timber supply for a
quarter century to be cut in this
city the local property-owner need
have no fear of values going below
par for many years to come; for in
addition to the mills and attendant
industries we still have a few tons
| of ore in the vicinity, which will
keep an army employed for many
years after our grand. children have
gone to their reward.

ON MONTvILLE MILL.
Large Fly Wheel Placed on One of the
Engines.

Supt- Walter 0. Whitaker is salts
fed with the progress made in the in
terror arrangements of the new paper
mill during the past week. The work
ing force is gradually being brought
to a system which will correspond with
the methods to be employed when the
big plant is in full operation and the
installation of machinery goes alon g
smoothly day after day Most of the
sbafting in the buildings on the north
part of the mill has been put into place
ready for coupling up and the large
fly wheel on one of the engines has
been put on and it's counterpart. which
will be connected with it by a powerful
rope drive system. is ready to be con-
nected to the shafting.
The pipe line from the reservoir has
been carried far enough from the dam
to permit the reservoir to be again
filled with water. This was done on
Thursday and on Friday the water
level was up % the top of the spill
way.
Claude Van Rensselaer, has been
given the position of bookkeeper and
timekeeper at the mill and Miss Foss
has been engaged as stenographer.
No inconsiderable task will be the
clearing away of used lumber and
other material from the outside of the
mill. Immense piles of this still
around the buildings. being thrown out
from the interior as the concrete work
is completed. The shed on the east OF
the mill will be removed in a short
time, when the wharf space will be
cleared and the wharf repaired where
necessary.

RAIN DID MUCH GOOD.
Downfall on Saturday Night Was
Greatly Needed and Came so as to
Bring Best Results.

The first rainfall of any importsi"e e
in number of weeks was received en-
Saturday night at a time when least
expected. as the st. Swithin's day
charm had been considered good for
a few days at least In view of the
number of scorching hot days. it was
also a surprise that it did not open
with a rousing thunderstorm. although
thunder and lightning did accompan,
it, but very mildly. The rain starte i
in sprinkle, gradually wetting down
the powdered ground, so that when it
began to rain harder it soaked in in =
stead of running off This soaked the
ground to a depth of about a foot, re-
viving vegetation, and its effect wiz
be noticed on sunbaked lawns. II
rained from about $50 Saturday aft
ernoon until about four O'Clock Sunday
morning. 1t was the first rainfall this
month and when measured today viii
doubtless show considerable. The
streets were washed but not badly gull
lied There was a noticea BILE change
in the temperature and Sunday was
one of the best days of the month
thus far.
The trolley cars were well patron
lied Sunday, it being the only means
of getting out of town. as the Block
Island is off the line and big day
