count of the great size and weight Of their

MILLINERY


-Four years ago Simons Bros. embarked
In business venture which it would
hardly seem that the trade of Salt Lake
justified and which it required the quail
ties OF pluck and perseverance, as also
an untiring spirit OF enterprise, evidently
possessed by Messrs. Simon Bros, to un-
dertake the manufacture of ladies' hats
from their own make of blocks. The
ladies' OF Salt Lake previously paid ex-
orbitant prices for their coronal adorn-
ments, which were necessarily imported
But the new firm practically monopo-
lied the business by establishing a man
utactory of ladies' hats and stylish
blocks, boxes and paper bags for the
wrapping and shipping Of the same, moth
ing like the latter ever having been done
in the Territory.
The store, small affair at first, gradu-
ally increased until it is to-day an inn
mense establishment, comprising a
wholesale department and a retail de-
partment, with store room above 5O% 100
feet and a basement J0x0O lpet. They

WOOL TRADE.


This is colossal enterprise going on in
the city, of which many old citizens are I'M
aware. Mr.. Packard has his hides, wool
and fur warehouse on the corner of Third
West and Third South streets, and also deals
largely IN plastering hair. The important
factor of this house is the wool shipping
business. Four years ago Mr.. Pickard, in
connection with two other wool dealers in
this locality, started concern in Boston,
Mass, called the Territorial Wool Associa.
ton, for the sole purpose of handling their
shipments from this locality, thereby saving
large amount of money formerly paid Out
to Boston merchants in commissions. So
far this year the association has received
2,3l4,576 pounds of wool, out of which Mr..
Pickard himself shipped forty.six Gals. Be-
sides the wool trade, he annually ships from
fifteen to twenty cars of hides and pelts

SADDLERY.
W. L. PICKARD,

This is another concern the yastne,s OF
whose business does not appear on the sur
face, and of which an accurate statement
would hardly seem credible except to an
actual inquirer. Mr.. Pickard beyond q
doubt has the most extensive wholesale and
retail saddlery establishment in the whole
Western country, having been steadily in
creasing the amount of his stock and trade
since starting in business in 1865. His
stock of leather of all descriptions, horse
clothing, American and English lap robes in
great variety, fur robes, carriage, driving
and riding whips Of every description, and
the tremendous stock Of harnesses, racing,
riding and driving outfits is assuredly the
most complete ever offered in the West.
Mr.. Pickard's saddlery store is situated at
No. 30 w. Second South street, and only
slight idea of the vast stock can be gained
by passing through the store. Mr.. Pickard
invites inspection of his stock, knowing full
we'll that any person desiring anything in
that line can get it from him if il is to be
found in America, and, besides he being
dealer in pelts and hides, tanner of his
own leather, and 4 manufacturer of his own
goods, can sell customer anything he
wants and save him three or four profits.
He also carries an immense stock of fnrs in
he store for the supply of the home trade.
This stock will always be found replete with
all grades styles and assortments of robes
and everything in the fur line Mr. Piekard
personally is a man of activity, and is ever
interested in any project of business or en-.
terprise likely to be of benefit to the city,
and is among the number of men who have
brought on the present prosperous condition
of Salt Lake City.
Aside from his immense saddery bust
ness, he also carries on an extensive

MERCHANT TAILORS.
BUCKLE a SON.


1t is hardly necessary to be uncertain
where the popular tailoring establish
ment Of Salt Lake City is A stranger
asking the question would be undoubted-
~ directed to Buckle & Son, opposite the
Walker House.
Here we have good sample of West
ern enterprise. Buckle & Son commenced
business in this city in 1876 on q very
small scale, and from present appear
ances We are Of the belief that no firm in
their line in Salt Lake City can make the
same showing for the past ten years.
Ever onward" is their motto, and they
are constantly increasing their already
fine stock of domestic and imported
cloths and trimmings. Their fame has
spread through Utah, Wyoming, Idaho,
Montana and Colorado They control
the trade in these Territories, and in
places not reached by their travelling
statesmen they have the following
novel way OF supplying customers, viz
They send a card with rules of self
measurement on it, full line OF samp pies
to select from, the latest fashion plate
and tape measure. The customer by
ment marked according to rule, the

sired, will be guaranteed perfect fitting

j. OBERNDoRFER.
A call at j. Oberndorfer's, successor to
Leviberg q Co., LOG Main street, disclosed
the fact that there is at least one first
class tailoring establishment in Salt Lake
City, where they display as fine line of
material as can be found in any house
west OF Chicago.
Mr.. Oberndorfer keeps nothing but i'm
ported cloths, with numerous line of
fine trimmings, and his stock being large
and well assorted customers can always
be assured of being most thoroughly
satisfied and being able to select goods to
suit their tastes. Mr.. Oberndorfer caters
only to first-class trade and guarantees to
get up garment that cannot be dupli-
Gated in Salt Lake City. He has only
first-class workmen in his employ. His
cutter was formerly with one of the best
houses in London, England, and has also
had six years of practical American ex-
perience. Mr.. Oberndorfer receives
fashion plates from New York once a
month, thereby enabling his patrons to
select from the very latest Paris STYLES.
He is confident that no other tailor in
Salt Lake City can make anything like
such garment nor give the satisfaction
that he can.

When the Taking of Testimony will
Commence-Spicy Developments Ex-
pected.

The taking of testimony in the suit of
Mrs. DR.. Hornblower against her husband
for divorce, will not be begun before two
weeks, at least. The troubles in the Horn
blower family commenced Immediately
after the birth of the last child. Horn
blower frequently declared that the child
was illegitimate, and as frequently took
back the statement, kissed his wife, and
made up. The disagreenents provoked be-
tween the doctor and his wife, however, by
reason of the frequency of these state
ments by him, eliminated finally at the
time of the marriage of the eldest daughter.
Mrs. Hornblower was not aware of her
daughters marriage at the time, and her
suspicious were aroused when she noticed
that the young lady was about to become
mother. Instead Of going to her daughter
and seeking an explanatian of her condition,
Mrs. Hornblower consulted her husband,
who, she alleges, retorted by Shaping her
face. The doctor had previously been
made aware of the fact that his daughter
had been secretly married. The applica-
ton for alimony was based on the allegation
of Mrs. Hornblower that her husband had
Sc, 900 or $1,000 worth of property, 81, 900
IN bank and an income of 81 600 annually.
The doctor denies that his income is
$4,000 year and declares, that
although the extensive drug bust
ness is conducted under the firm
of Josiah Hornblower & Son, he has no in
tcrest whatever in the concern. He has,
however, paid the 500 counsel fee as or
dered by the court and is paying his wife
SO week alimony pending the trial of the
issue. He ROW reiterates his former
charges of his wife's infdelity and declares
that she WIS criminally intimate with a
clerk formerly in his employ.
