In the upbuilding of the modern
American city of the Goth century the
services of the modern sanitary engi-
neers are of the utmost value, for by
the modern standards of living the
length of the average human life has
been greatly increased. This is partly
due to the work of the sanitary engi-
neer. This condition compels the mod
ern sanitary engineer to be man of
advanced ideas, with thorough know
ledge of the laws of sanitation.
As regards the above we cannot in
this review of our onward progress,
fail to compliment them as they are
regarded as most practical and eompe-
tent in this line and are assisted by
the most competent corps Of helpers
they can secure.
They have been called to execute hot
water, steam, vapor and other heating
systems in some of the best dwelling
houses and finest buildings in our coun-

cate work in these lines is well known
to those who have in the past had bus
mess dealings with them.

farmer who had two years. wool

next to nothing at all for his

the dancers of both sexes get drunk;
that the rooms of the hotel are all
engaged and that the cottages are
broken into and the rooms occupied
by the jewellers.
On Sunday night, October 80, last
a dance was in progress there and il
is generally agreed that there were
100 dancers on the floor when the
devil came and was in the midst.
Some claim that he came up thorugh
the floor, others that he came down
from the roof. He was the regular
fellow they say, horn, hoOfs. and tail

players and were splintered. Lurid
lights filled the place and the devil
danced among them. Women and
girls screamed and some tainted

jail Inmate
To Mendoza
(From Saturdays Daily.)

Sheriff II. c. Neitzel had but little
sleep last night as he was aroused
several times by the racket made by
Herman Kible, who has been an in
mate of the county Jail for the past
month, on the charge of stealing
hides from a blacksmith in Black
Hawk. Today the young man was
taken to the hospital at Mendoza for
treatment.
Kible originally came from Chicago
and had been living in the vicinity of
Black Hawk until the above charge
landed him in Jail.
The youth was decidedly violent at
the depot this morning on his way
to Mendoza and it required four men
to put him on the train. Sheriff Neitzel
accompanied him TO Mendoza.
