10 HEAT CITY
W. A. Thies Has Novel Plan of
Utilizing Waste Heat On
Coos Bay.
W. A. 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.
