productive valleys, higher mountains, deeper,
larger, and more swift rivers, in fact sur
passed anything that could be suggested. A
gentleman from Eureka, wag in his way,

been there. 1t seemed for the moment that
he had been everywhere, when the Eureka
man with bland, inofensive smile, inquired,
''Have you ever visited AustinY' "AustinF

''Where is Austin? No, have never been

DR.. BUTTS has almost completed his work |
at the corner of Spear and Division streets.
A bridge is in process of construction at the
corner in front of J. G. Fox S residence, which
will be great improvement to that part of
the city. To-day the Doctor goes to work on
new sewer, running from Carson street
north of the Carson City Savings Bank east,
to connect with the sewer below the railroad.
Butts is indefatigable and if the drainage of
the town is not perfect, complete and healthy,
it is not his fault.
