ing something more than thirty ele-
gantly finished apartments for busi-
ness Offices.
Three shades of light colored brick
have been selected for the outer walls

extend about four feet above the side
walk line.

TWO BIG NEW BUILDINGS FOR WATERFOWL
he Citizens National Bank Start Work toward
the Erection Of Three-story Building on
the old Schaller Corner. .---Dr. Bartron to
Build Four-story $5O,OOOOO Hospital.
THE NEW HOSPITAL,

1t seems assured now that Water
town is fast coming to the front as a
great hospital center. The. develop
ment of this feature of modern busi-
ness and professional life here is
bound to bring thousands Of dollars
yearly to our city, and every such in
stitution should be enthusiastically
encouraged by our citizens.
The latest announcement along this
line comes from DR.. H. ]. Bartron,
who has just purchased the S. M.
Smell residence property on south
Maple street. and will at once erect
thereon modern $4,000 hospital.
This will be done Immediately, just as
soon as the plans can he drawn and
approved. The present residence will
be moved to the south side of the
lot and the new hospital will occupy
the north portion of the lot, running
east and west and facing north.
The hospital building win be thor
oughly tire-proof from bottom to top.
and consist of four stories. On the
ground floor, which will be partially
below the sidewalk line, will be the
general kitchen and dining room,
quarters for the help, experimental
room. boiler and furnace.
The east part of the second floor
will be arranged as a fat for the
living rooms of tor. Bartron. On this
floor also will be the two reception
rooms, the offices, aid the surgeries
or operating rooms, and also the
;ex-ray rooms and equipment. The
third floor viii be exclusively for the
surgical and medical cases, which
rooms and wards Will be fitted with
the latest and most modern equip
ment for caring for tbs sick. The
9ourth floor will be given over ex.
5clusively to obstetrics. The garages,
which will provide for three cars, will
be under the two porches. A large
laundry and vegetable cellar will also
be arranged for in convenient loca-
tions. An electric elevator will be the
means of travel between the different
floors, and vacuum cleaning and ven
tilation systems will also be a part
of the equipment.
The site for the hospital is ideal in
two particulars, especially. 1t is close
enough to the business center to be
handily used as an emergency hos.
pital, and is also sufficient distance
out to avoid the noise, confusion and
dust of the business streets.
The doctor will have associated
with him two physicians who are spec
ialists in their line One is DR.. ]. T
Benjamin, who is now with him, and
whose specially will include labor
atory diagnosis and ex-ray. Another
specialist will devote his attention te
internal medicines and obstetrics
DR.. Bartron will devote his energies
and talents to general surgery and the
eye, ear, nose and throat. Mrs. Bart
ron will have general supervision Of
the hospital and will also establish
and develop training school fol
nurses.

Sioux City Tribune: The paths of
crooked living lead to but one des-
tination--exposure, disgrace and ut
ter ruin. Nothing has been written
to state the truth more clearly since
it was penned BE sure your sins

half dozen large stores in New York,
Brooklyn and Boston.
It suddenly came to light that he
was in bad shape financially his
stores going into hands of receiver.
Nothing disgraceful about this. how
ever, as many an honest man has
met with financial reyerses. But when
this test came, his real character
was exposed. He had been unable to
get money because banks were sus-
picious Of him; he had misrepresent-
ed his assets and resources to them
and they wouldn't tide him over.
Then it developed he had robbed
thousands Of poor people who had
had faith in him and placed all their
savings in his private banks. run In
connection with his stores. He had
taken their money and put It in his
own pocket and lived on it. It Is said
he has invested much Of 1t where it
cannot be recovered. He was indicted
by the grand jury for larceny and 9th
er crimes in connection with his
crooked banking and mercantile deal
ings. All property that he had In this
country was promptly seized and
turned over for the benefit OF his
creditors.
