A ospaOious public hall is one Of thu
CRYING needs of Seattle. With the clos
ING Of the Opera House, and lis dev0
tion to other uses, this need wilt become
painfully apparent. The hall wantet
here should not be less than 40xlD feet

on every considerable oocasion. II should
b0 arranged in the most approved mod
ern style, and furnished in tho best man

quartz lodges near Harrisburg, about
lh0 miles from Sitka, using a five stamp
mill, preparatory to using mill that
viii cost about e150,0co. They are at
present working on lodges that range
from level with tho water 10 about $50
feet above tho level. The quality Of the
orc " low grade, ranging from % to go

Trsdwell, from California, manager Of
the party, has no doubt that the enter
prise win pay. Several canneries are
located In that region, and all are doing
q RoOd business.
