MUTH-TOLLEFSON

A happy marriage took place at
Miles City on Monday, March 9Th,
when Miss Edna Gertrude Tollefson
became the wife of Erwin Heinhart
Muth at the Presbyterian parsonage,
Rev. James Forsyth Smith officiating
in the presence of the brides mother
and other lee relatives.
The bride was prettily gowned in a
with pearls and real lace, and carried
an elegant shower bouquet of brides
roses and lilies of the valley. She
wore a handsome diamond La Valliere,
the gift of the groom. The groom
was Hastily dressed in a dark suit.
The bride is the second daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Ole Tollefson of Dick
inson. She was born in Hebron, N.
D., but has spent the greater part of
her life in this city, having received
her education in the city schools. She
has grown to womanhood in our midst
and has surrounded herself with a
large circle of friends.
The groom was born in Horrigan,
Wis, and came to this city some eight
years ago. He was employed in the
grocery department of the A.. T.
Crowl & Co.. store, and has remained
there ever since, being in charge of
the same department for the present
firm of Crowl-S Schroeder Company.
During his stay here he has made a
large acquaintance which includes an
equally large number of friends.
For the present, at least, the young
couple will make their home with
the brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ole
Tollefson, and will be at home tc
their friends after April LIST.

was completed and on November 10
of that year the lights were used for
the first time. Some were skeptical
and many thought that it would send
the city into bankruptcy. We have
enjoyed this great improvement for
over two years and the city is not
any the worse off in any respect.
Though possibly a little extravagant
to begin with, we have now learned
to economic and at the same time Sc
cure as much light as is needed.
The cost of lighting the city prev
ious to 1912 would be of small i'm
portance as the lighting was not en-
tirely satisfactory, and the city has
grown a great deal since then. We
will, therefore, not bother with the
figures for the years previous. The
cost of the lighting, beginning with
the fiscal year, September 1, 1912,
and ending August 80, 1918, was
$3,177.44. This includes the cost
of the "White Way" which:
as previously stated, was used first
in November of the same year, and
the arc lights of both the north and
south sides. For the year 1913
1914, the cost was $3,OO5.55.
During the fall Of 1914 the COM
mittee appreciated the fact that the
South Side was very poorly lighted,
with only four arc lights; yet they
were expanding all that they could
and stay within their fund. It was
found that a nitrogen filled bracket
light would give an abundance of
light within a block, and at a small
cost. The arc lights were then cost
ing almost 81 each or nearly $28 for

With more than 10000 people in many
of the scenes; the erection of a minia-
ture city of Rome covering six square
blocks; the costly building of more
than two hundred luxurious "interi-
ors," and the expensive costuming of
an army of people, has made the cost
of the production enormous. It is no
exaggeration to say that any one Of
forty scenes in "Julius Caesar" will
equal in number of people engaged
any three scenes in either "Quo
Vadis?" or "Antony & Cleopatra"
The role of julius Caesar is
played by Anthony Novelli, who will
be remembered for his splendid work
as Vinitius in "Quo Vadis? ?" and

This shows a saving Of $236.84 for
the corresponding four months at the
beginning of this fiscal year. Up to
March l the entire system has cost
the city $1,484.71; this covers the six
months of the fiscal year and in
cludes the winter months, when the
lights are used most. At the rate the
"White Way" is being used at the
The Dickinson press., 1915-03-13

present the average cost pei. month
for the year is in the neighborhood OF
$50.
The residents of the outer sections
of the city have long felt the need OF
more light in their dark districts.
The committee have not been unmind-
full of their needs and have felt that
as soon as they could see their way
clear these problems should be dealt
with. A few months ago they became
aware of the fact that cheaper lights
could be secured to replace the arc
lights which were costing almost 81
each per month. The new light would
cost SIS, thus making a saving of
nearly 81 per light per month.
A deal was made with Hughes &
Deiters whereby they agreed to re-
place all the old arc lights with the
new high efficiency Nitrogen lights,
provided the city installed II new
lights. The committee decided that
this was a big improvement at a
moderate cost and took the matter up
with the council at once. The plan
met with favor and it was decided to
try it out at once.
The new lights seem much like the
old arc light unless carefully ex-
amined. Each light contains a large
bulb much like the bulk of the mean
descent light only much larger. The
fine filament in place of being in a
vacuum is in a bulb of nitrogen gas
which causes it to glow with great
brilliancy. These ire exceptionally
fine lights at a reduction of over one
fourth the cost of the old kinds.
At the rate the "White Way" is
now being used with the new lights
installed and the old arc lights re-
placed with the new, the committee
figure that it will cost the city a
trife over $3.50 per month or as fol-
lows:
"White Way" .--.- S 5000
IS Arcs (new) ......... 1880
~ Brackets 27.5O
Total $252.5O
At this rate the cost per year will
surely come within the appropriation
of $780,, and the patrons are get
ting much better service than for
merly.
Up to date 10 new lights have been
installed. The remaining new lights
will be put in as soon as the neces-
sary parts arrive. The old ones will
then be replaced with the new variety.
The supplied with new lights
are as follows: Dryer, Crowl, Saund-
ers, Branick, Casey, Berg, K~ostelecky,
Auth, lessen, the one block
north of the following, Pugh,
Bachelor Club and Stewart. ,
The present council, Mayor White,
and especially the present light COM
mittee, which consists of Alderman
Beres, Beidler and Rabe, deserve the
credit for the improvement the city is
now enjoying.
The above figures refer merely to
the lighting expense of the "White
Way" but do not give the cost of in
%stallation which is charged against
the property within the improvement
district and comes to the owner in the
form of a tax extending over a period
of 10 years. For example the "White
Way" tax against the PRESS prop
erty for 1914 was $1,000. The curb
ing improvement, also extended over
a period of 10 years, cost $24.99 for
the same year or this property. All
the property owners within the i'm
provement district (the "White Way")
will find these extra tax charges if
they will examine their tax receipts
carefully.

tungsten lights were hen placed on
the South Side, and the arcs were
taken down. The % lights cost the
city $27.50 per month and lighted the
entire South Side.
The cost of lighting the "White
Way" was quite large up to the
month of March, 1914, when the
lighting of this part of the system

It is with time that we buy all the

is by a wise use of time that we get

or woman who wastes and squanders
time
The only thing in the world that Is

session of us all, lie time. Every day every

cess. merely a chemical reaction, as

Jacques Loeb ana DR. Bsstian and other
