The fine game depot and storehouse
Of Mr.. Victor D. Fuchs, on Jefferson
street, is soon to undergo transforma
ton. On the ground floor work will
begin next week, to convert one hall
of the commodious stereroom into a
retail meat establishment, where beef,
mutton. venison and game will be
dealt out to consumers as desired. The
other side is to be used exclusively as
a fish and oyster depot. The place
will be ready for business by the first
of next month. Mr.. Fuchs came home
from a trip north and along the sea

business have been illuminated and

desire to tread in the path of the pro-
gressive young men Of the period.
