Thies and others last even ing presented a petition to tho i Marshfield city council asking for a (healing franchise, permitting them ! to use the streets and alloys of the (clty for their pipe lines for a period of thirty-five years. Their proposal Is to use tho exhaust steam of tho C. A. Smith and the Gas and Electrio Company's plants to heat tho entire city, the exhaust steam being carried from tho plants to the city in large mains and then distributed to the various buildings through smaller pipes, the same as gas and water aro Mr. Thies said last evening that If the franchise is granted them, tho exhaust steam would probably bo used. If not, he and his associates proposes to put In a heating plant of their own. He said that tho exhaust steam from tho C. A. Smith mill nlone would be ample to heat a city twice as large as Marshfield. Ho I said that the cost of heating bulld 'ings would bo much less than where I stoves and Independent heating 'plants aro used for each building or room. Mr. Thies said that steam could bo carried eight miles in pipes with a loss of only about eight per cent. Ho said that by means of vats, tho heat could be used for boiling water in tho homes or buildings. Francis H. Clarke also spoko In favor of the franchise. He said that Mr. Thies was one of tho ablest en gineers In tho country nnd that ho was perfectly capable of carrying out all tho promises made. Mr. Clarko said the franchise was a very liberal one, tho adjustment of rates being Iqft to the council, tho city being given the privilege of purchasing tho plant at tho expiration of twenty-five years, of regulating the laying of lta pipes, etc. He estimated the cost at $50,000. It was finally decided to lay the franchise on the table for another reading at tho next meeting. HAS WALTER LYON "FOUND AN AFFINITY Registers nt Chicago Hotel From Portland nnd Forgets Coos Bny His First Loe. The Portland Oregonlan publishes dally a list of the arrivals of persons from Oregon at the principal hotels of tho principal eastern cities. In Its Issue of Saturday, December 26, In this depattment It published tho following from tho hotel register of a Chicago caravansary: "At Great Northern Walter Lyons, Portland." FIol Flo! Can this be our Walter, on his way to Washington and reg istering from Portland? Wo suspect ed that Walter's affections wore not rock ribbed or as tho everlasting hills when thoy Involved a pretty woman but wo never doubted tho sincerity of his attachment to Cooa Bay. What means this flirting with fato and making goo goo eyes at destiny. Portland, Portlandl Let's seo? That's a city up hero on the Willamette. But did Walter ever hear of Coos Bay? What does ho mean by this trifling with our roso city rival. Residents of Coos Bay like the denlzons of Carthago think themselves citizens of no mean city." It hurts our pride when one of our distinguished residents goes abroad and appends the namo of a rival city to his autograph. At first it waB thought that possibly there must bo a mlstako or that It was another Wal ter Lyon. Investigation reveals tho fact that It Is only too true. Thoro Is but ono Walter Lyon In Oregon and his homo Is supposed to bo on Coos Bay. Is It possible that Walter has fallen a victim to tho prevailing fashion and gone off with an nfilnlty. Wo await explanations In anxiety and suspense. NOTICE. Parties owing mo accounts are re quested to call and settle as I am closing my books. All accounts out standing after January 15, 1909 will bo placed for collection. ROBT. MARSDEN, Sr. Steamer BREAKWATER salla from Coos Bay for Portland SAT URDAY, 7 A. M.
