STORM CAUSES NEWS
 PAPERS TO SUSPEND

The storm of Wednesday was the cause of the failure of the Juneau newspapers to appear yesterday. There was no electric power for the linotype machines and for the first part of the day the water power was shut off.
 The Empire is being prepared today under difficulties. The electric power was shut off at o'clock this morning, and it was necessary to connect the linotype machine with one of the presses, and make power in that way.
 The management of the Alaska Light and Power Company has given assurance that there will be electric power tomorrow, so conditions will be normal again.

HeaIex RuiIdlnu PIats Out.

Plats Of the Healey Building, show
ing typical floor, have been sent out
in the mails to prospective tenants.
There are approximately 80 offices OF
various sizes to each floor above the
second. the first and second being
subject to a somewhat different ar
rangement. Three elevators are on
each side of a wide elevator hall in
the portion of the building which is
nearest to Broad street. The corri-
doris on each floor are nine feet wide.
Each office is outside.
Although many inquiries have been
made for space in the Healey Build
ing, 1t has not been possible until the
charts were out to show how the
structure will look, and even now it
is still impossible to pilot would-be
tenants through the building. In about
80 days. 1t Is thought, the elevators
will be running, and that people who
are interested can see for themselves
the exact arrangement
Terra Gotta on the building has been
laid on three sides as high as the six
teenth story, and on the fourth side
as high as the fifteenth. Three more
days of uninterrupted work should
make 1t possible to complete this part
OF the Job. F7utelike columns of
terra Gotta are a feature Of the Struc-
ture.

Although there are many fine homes
in Atlanta figures taken from the

that houses costing over $4,000 are
very much in the minority as com
pared with dwellings Of less cost and
size. In the period of eight months
following January there were only
nine dwellings built costing over So
900. These aggregated S189,1 $50, an
average of $3.50 per house. Smaller
and less expensive dwellings far out
stripped this number and amount
Eight apartment houses aggregated
$277,700, an average of $34,712 per
apartment.
