ENGINEER HILL HERE
Electrical Engineer for City Visits
Denison Friday and Council APP
proves Plans and Specifications

j. B. Hill, of Iowa City, who was
employed by the city council to draw
up the plans and specifications for the
new municipal lighting plant and pow
er house, was in Dcnison last week
and submitted his plans to the coun-
ell. Members of the council met with
Mr.. Hill on Friday and formally ac-
cepted the plans as drawn up.
Mr.. Hill has returned to Iowa City
and will at once commence work on
drawing up a permanent set of plans
and specifications. He expects to
have these completed within four
weeks and will advertise them in the
local papers, and it is hoped that local
contractors will be able to secure the
contract for building the new power
house.
F Doubtless it will be several months
before the new system will be in
stalled and it will probably be- next
spring before it will be in full opera
ton, although the engineer estimates
November 1st as the date set for the
completion of the new plant.

cry machinery and now has one OF
the best bakeries in this part Of the
state. Only recently he put in a
mammoth bake oven at an expense of
several hundred dollars, but since
then there has been such a demand for
his bread that it became necessary for
him to purchase a bread mixing ma
chine. The old method OF mixing the
bread by. hand was SO. slow and un-
satisfactory that he was only too glad
to place the order for a large bread
mixing machine. The machine was
installed the first of the week and has
capacity OF mixing enough dough
for 900 leaves OF bread at one filling.
1t is a massive piece Of machinery
driven with three horse power cleo
trio motor, which turns the large, steel
paddles at lively rate and mikes the
bread much better than if done by
hand! MIR. Myers is to be congrat-
ulated upon the fine business he has
built up in Denison.

by the flames. the opera house, the

hours, and leaving in their trail only
charred remnants of once substantial

morning by Ed Leach. He looked out

the contents of the buildings, and to
the surrounding neighborhood.
A Gate City reporter made the trip
to Montrose this morning by auto,
and found the town much excited over
the fire Of the early morning. The
greatest loss is believed to be that
of the opera house, which vas owned
by R. s. Latta. 1t was a building in
which all Montrose took pride, and
one which was quite necessary to the
community as it served as a central
gathering place for shows, dances and
the like. A dance had been held
there in celebration of ST. Patrick s
day last night, and happy jolly
crowd had gone out of the door, to
return two hours later and helplessly
watch the flames tango1hg through
the building, where earlier in the
evening merry throng had danced
across the floor.
