of January to last all winter.
The Ilecla Co.'s smelter is running al
full speed with both Of their So ton furnaces
working to their full capacity, although me
concentration, at Greenwood, is Temporarily
running slow on account Of putting In new
machinery. 1t, like the ,,nelter, runs day
and night, never stopping except to repair
damages.
Mr.. Knippenberg, the genial and accom-
olating manager Of the Co., Is always on
duty, to entertain visitors,as we'll as to look
after the companies interests, which tasks
he accomplishes to the qualification OF all
In this he is ably seconded by 6. G. Earle,

Mr.. Knippenberg seems to understand the
true system Of labor by employing only
skilfu, industrious and steady hands; pay
ing them good wages and using them like
men, thereby gaining their confidence and
respect,
A glance over the business portion Of the
town reveals quiet, local trade, but there
seems to be great demand for the com.
forts, as we'll as the necessaries, Of life. Joe
kepler has bountiful supply Of the varions
durable ornaments which please--and IT
will please him to have visitors appreciate

Rote s. Co. besides their main store, have
large contracts from the Hecla Co., and also
run branch store and two boarding houses
at the mines. Armstrong and Losee have
varied supply Of merchandise which will
probably be replenished in short time, as
the senior partner has just returned from a
trip to California and Oregon. Pond and
Genereaux, although lower down the street
and apparently almost out ofthe business
center, still keep up with the times and ex-
hibit great tact in the selection Of their am
pie stock Of goods. John Wells still keeps
the old stand and is always sought out by
some Of the old timers. WEIGH is just
putting In first class stock of notions and
fruits.

have to be filled even in our healthy coun-

and Thomas deal out justice tempered with
mercy. Billy Parkinson, always ready to
show hospitality to strangers, helps, with
several others, to dispense the needful to
the thirsty. Prof Brown Yields the lather
brush now. The brewery is now running
with good outlook.
The skating rink still seems to be the
most popular source Of amusement and Is
only objected to, BY the saloon keepers, who
complain that it takes away their custom.
The schools, under the guidance Of Miss
Anna Carter, are verv successful, and re-
open under favorable circumstances with
Miss Minnie Axe as assistant to Miss
Carter.
Rev. Mr.. Mintzer seems to be getting
very popular here, his talent being more
appreciated the longer he stays. Professor
