Millinery Opening.

Mrs. Purcnpfie announces her regular millinery opening for Friday and Saturday, October 4th and 6th. All ladies cordially invited to call and see the latest styles and most popular creations. For some months past several Monticello citizens have been agitating the subject of a hot water heating plant for the town. In response to their correspondence Mr. McCreary of Chicago came here this week in fcge interest of the Yaryan hot water System of heating. Two meetings were held with the result that a canvass of the town is being made to obtain subscribers for stock, looking towards the formation of a company. The system contemplates the installing of a central plant with pipes to carry the hot water to residences and business houses. In places where the system has been installed it has been operated in connection with either ele&trio light plants, pnmping stations or mills, utilizing the exhaust steam for heating the water. It is estimated that the cost of heating a room twelve by fourteen! feet would be about five dollars a year. The advantages claimed for the system are the absenoe of dust and ashes and a constant and equitable temperature at all times. Where the system has been inangerated it has given good satisfaction.
