point of style aud the quantity and variety
OF nice groceries there is nothing to beat II
in the city. They keep everything that a
family needs In the grocery line and IN i'm.
meuse quantities, and their variety ot fancy
goods is larger than We have ever seen be-
fore, and we advise every one OF our read
ers who are fond OF good living togive them
call aud see for themselves. Mr., Ogden
informs us that the business has more than
doubled in the last sixty days, and that
they intend TO build up the best grocery
| business In the city, and from what We can
see We hgye no doubt that he means Just
what ht,says. This isro pun, but deserv

A Needed Caution.
There will be inferior limitations Of sue.
cessful articles and that most remarkable
OF all floor coverings, "lISoLEuN" is 70
exception. Beyond all controversy, the
superiority Of the American make OF these
goods is proven. The best English goods
never reach this market for the high quail
ty OF the American goods completely
supersedes them, Only inferior
grades are imported and In
use will look dirty and unsatisiao
tory. The Walton trade mark with the
word "LINoLEUN, is on the back OF every
square yard of American goods and al
carpet dealers keep 1t.

Electric Light er Mines.

A number of mining companies in this Territory are about to adopt the
 electric light to facilitate operations
 under ground, as well as on the sur
 face, notably the Silver King mining company, the Howell Smelling and mining company, and the Conger
 mill and mining company. At the Silver King mine it Is proposed to use four 5000 candle power Brush
 arc lIg hts above ground and and two below. together with twenty-five sin j. l incandeseent lamps. The Dy- namo located near the main shaft will supply the curl ent descending 500 feet to the lower levels of the mlne to the arc lights and storage boxes, from which latter the Swan lamps are to be connected by small copper wires. Fixed lamps are to be suspended from the roofs of gaIler- ies and the portable lights are to be attached to flexible conductors for convenience of shifting These lights are to burD continuously, nj ight and day. In the Reduction Works of this company-both large and small lights are also to be used, separate dynamo and two storage batteries the current. The arc light circuit in the Silver King mine will be about half a mile in length.- Citizen.
