GLENDALE,


Editor Butte BINkk
Thanksgiving-the day Of cest and prayer,
has passed, aud our city has resumed its usua.
routine of business. The day was generally
observed by the average Giendal.an, who
gave thanks for the ~fullness Of his stomach.
if not of his heart.
The water-works TO supply the city with
that useful element for fire and domestic
purposes, have been finished, and are now
ready for use in case of need. A three-inch
pipe Junk below the frost line, AID embedded
in charcoal dust, connects wi.hthe mall peat
the smeltcr, thence follows down Ma L street
a distance of 1870 feet. Seven h~ydrants are
in place at convenient dislacces apart. Tie
total cost of This great convenience and pto-
lection, which has :1c"eased the value of
every building ard lot in town, including the
purchase price of p,pes, fre.gut and the cost
of laying, does not exceed 81 800. Nea Y
the whole amount was raised by subscr. ptions
from property owners.
The Avery House was s. dedicated" Thanks
giving night by a grand ball. Through the
courtesy Oh TIE JuuSc was auoWh tLiouSu
the house, from cellac TO th>!d story. TIE
cellar is supplied with enough provender, one
would think, 10 start Il wholesale grocery
store. The first floor is conveniently divided
SO as to have the office, bar, dining room and
kitchen entirely separated. The parlor Is
located on the second floor. The house has
35 nice sleeping rooms, furnished with mat
tress spring beds and wash. sets. The rooms
are all nicely carpeted. J. II. Bulger, Esq,
is the accommodating clerk, while the Gull
nary department is under the watcltui care
of Mr.. Dan II. Simmons. Glendale has
long needed a first-class hotel, and that want
has at last been supplied.
Thos. II. Rutter, the photographer, has
formed a partnership with Mr.. j. Ii, NeSb:tt
a firsr-class workman. Dir. Ruttcr's views OF
Wonderland are said TO be the best yet taken
of thar famous region.
| am reliably informed that the llec'a
Company have recently made a zig Strlk,
OH the 400 foot level of their Atlantis mine
having struck IA large body and by far ,ir
richest ore they have had for some time.
