Lake Tahoe.

During the past week we took
trip to Lake Tahoe, spending q few
hours in Reno, a night and day in
Truckee, two days in Tahoe City,
Glenbrook and different points OF
interest around this most beautiful
mountain lake. At Reno we found
the Depot Hotel in full blast under
the very able and popular guidance
of w. r. Chamberlain. The hotel
has been but recently rebuilt, newly
furnished, and to-day IS the most
perfect hotel on the line of the Gen.
trail Pacific X. r. We had the plea
sure Of meeting many old friends,
among the number Mr.. & Mrs L. l..
Crockett, formerly of this county,
who have just completed their home,
one OF the finest and most perfect
residences in the state. A descrip.
ton of their grounds, residence, etc.,
would be crafty ng to many of our
readers who are we'll wishers of our
friends named, but space forbids.
At Truckee we Of course met that
prince OF landlords, John +. Moody,
and were soon seated in his
spacious dining hall feasting on the
.dainties AID substantials. At a
seasOnabie hour we found ourselves
in large clean bed and were soon
wrapped in the arms of tired natures
sweet restorer. Truckee is very
quiet, none of the extensive SAW
mills being in operation owing to
Carson people having underbid them
for supplying timber to the bonanza
com panies. We found Cardweli at
his famous hotel doing a good bust
ness, ready TO accommodate ex
eursionists to the surrounding re
sorts with safe cOnveyances. His
stages carry the U. s. Mail and
Wells, Fargo 4 CO.'S Express to
Lake Tahoe. Having an invita-
ton to ride on Moody &
Huntington's stages, IN company
with happy part y, we seated our.
self on the seat beside s. w. Waugh
formerly of this place who manages
the ribbons on the backs of four
handsome animals as ever were
hitched to a coach, and in an incred
IDLY short time were in Tahoe City.
We were now going to have some
thing to say of the new Steamer
Niagara which makes her regular
trips in all kinds of weather, but
cannot do so in this issue, and will
only pay Captain Avery the merited
compliment of saying that he is the
most accommodating master of any
we ever Travelled with and has the
most perfect little craft that floats.
In due time we were rafting down
towards Carson on Benton's stage
after having been refreshed at the
Lake Shore House, Glenbrook, of
which We will say more in our next.

lar time. always connecting With
the trains on the Central Pacific, and
with the steamers on the lake.

We bespeak success for Mr.. c.. since

him to be a man of perseverance
and enterprise. In tho course of
two years his tract of land will
doubtless be worth five times the

to keep people at prices to suit the

the custom at many points on the

that beautiful resort will call to mind
friend Pomin, ami with the under

are certain to give him call.
