Building Notes, Etc.

OF the BlelenbeIg building and material
being delivered and laid.
Mr.. c.. G. Birdseye, Of Avon, has let the
contract for the stone work of his store at
Avon to Mr.. Riddle, and it will soon be con-
structed.
Water was struck at about six feet in the
excavation.fo the Lodge & Beaumont build
ing. A basement extends under the entire
building, and the excavation is complete.
MI. Frank Bowes is putting up quite a
good-sized and substantial dwelling house on
lower Main street, opposite the residence Of
Mrs. Barnard. 1t is icing built of nicely
hewn logs, and is to be brick veneered.
MI. Patterson is doing very rapid work on
the Kleinschmidt & Co. building, the brick
walls of the lower story, 100 feet deep, hav-
ing been laid and the joists put on inside of a
week. Mr.. Riddle, of Missoula, has charge
of the brick work.
Rev. Ed. Groehe"eld has sold to Mr.. Asa
Conf"rth, late of Jefferson valley, his resi-
dence advertised for sale last week; terms
$2,400, spot cash. We are pleased to know
Mr.. and Mrs. Conforth rave concluded to
make Deer Lodge their home.
Main street, in front of the new buildings,
is pretty we'll occupied with material and
teams, and the "Hi, there! let me in !" from
approaching and hurrying drivers is gracious
music in the air. Mr.. Patterson expects the
iron fronts in a day or two, and the block
will soon begin to present a fine appearance.
Mr.. w. w. Reed has done a great deal for
the welfare of Deer Lodge in opening up the
porphyry quarries on Peterson Greek. 1t is
as good rock, if not better, than that from
Caribou, while the former is only six or
seven miles from town, and the latter is
twelve to fourteen. A team can haul more
than double the number of perch in a week.
1t is very durable and handsome, unexcelled
in NJ ontana and in in~exhaustible quantity.
Wouldn't 1t be tiue for a business house-the
Bank, for instance-to lay up a building
of 1t.

THE BRICK YARDS.
Mr.. Richards with Improved Machinery
Making Brick by the Million.


A visit by a reporter of the New NORTH.
WEST to the new brick yard Of Mr.. A Rich
ards one day this week, fully convinced him
that that gentleman IN keeping pace with
Deer Lodge improvements, and that our PEG
Pile need have no fears as to being able to get
plenty Of brick here at home, and too, of a
better quality than heretofore. The new
yard is situated about q quarter of q mile
northwest from the old one, where MI. Rich.
ards has for years supplied Deer Lodge, be-
sides making considerable shipments to other
Montana points. But this year he has found
it necessary to greatly increase the capacity
in order to supply the very much increased
demand. He thereupon purchased the ranch
of Mr.. Billedoux, which furnishes him an
abundance Of room and material for his bus
mess, besides a liberal acreage for pasture,
meadow and grain land, mostly covered by a
ditch from Deer Lodge river. A now ma
chine, known as the martin Machine"
manufactured at Lancaster, Pa, is now and
has been running in full. blast for the past two
or three weeks, and is highly satisfactory to
Mr.. Richards. This machine has a capacity
of 10000 to 25, 900 brick per day, and ten men

ing. -Four are kept busy at of-bearing-this
being done by small hand.carts or trucks,
containing four moulds of six bricks each;
others in preparing and feeding in the ma
terial, washing and sanding the moulds,
while one man slides the moulds in the ma.
chine at one side and another lifts them from
a platform that slides cont at regular inter-
walls. when they are placed on the hand
carts ready for the off bearer, who "allows no
grass to grow under his heels.' The machine
is run by horse power. Besides the men
thus employed, there are quite a number of
others working at and round the yards. A
kiln of 160, 600 brick was fired Wednesday
evening, in which it is estimated 80 cords of
wood will be used, it being necessary to con-
stantly keep up a hot fire for six or seven
days and nights. A second kiln is now being
prepared also, and Mr.. Richards says with
his excellent and increased facilities and
some $1,000 or more brick at the old yard, he
has no fears now about supplying the de-
mand He expects to make q million and
a half this season.. The men employed there,
except a few with families, are boarded on
the premises.
Mr.. r., believing it better to personally
supervise his works, is now having built,
and has we'll under way, a handsome Groom.
story and a half frame residence, gothic
style or design. Mr.. Jos. Mcdonald, who
has the contract, has promised him he will
have it finished inside oftwo months. From
this site, on the north side and near the
wagon road, the view of Deer Lodge and the
Intervening meadow lands and Green trees,
together with those as far back to the east as
the foothills, is extremely beautiful land
pleasing to the eye.

THE "LAWRENCEU GAS.
A Splendid Light at Moderate Cost.

A Splendid Light at Moderate Cost.
Under direction of Mr.. G. F. Frink the
plant for a 50.light burner Of the Law renee
Gas patent was set up in Harry Peterson's
building a few days ago and has since been
burning nightly. The light is excellent
more brilliant than oil and softer than the
electric, a happy medium that burns steadily
and with which it is stated light can be sup
Piled cheaper than with other gas, Oil or
electricity. The exhibition here has been
very successful. A large light used here is
known as the "Siemen-Lungren," and gives
a light of 800 candle power. 1t is enclosed
in a glass font, with no interruption of its
rays downward or outward, and resembles
an i~ncandescent light of great power. The
Argand and ommon jets are also used. Its
relative lighting quality as compared with
ordinary gas is as so to Is, and its cost much
less.
The right for Montana is owned by Mr..
Frink and several capitalists Of Helena. The
right for Deer Lodge County has been pur-
chased by u company including Messrs.
Frank Hatton, Lew Coleman, j. w. Plum
mer, J. K. Pardce, W. F. Furay and G. F.
Frink. It is their purpose to assist in organ
izing companies to put in plants in all towns,
reduction works and other places it is de-
sired. The plants are from D-light power
up, but it is cheaper to put in general plants
and supply light from one station than to use
smaller plants. Another plant has been
ordered to exhibit in Anaconda, and one
will be placed in Philipsburg shortly. While
electric lighting is being perfected to admir
able quality there are W principal objec-
tions-danger of fatal contact and ignition,
which may be overcome, and heavy expense
where natural power cam OF be obtained. 1t
has not displaced gas; it may never. The
latter is safe under ordinary conditions; it
but rarely %'fails," and if it can be sold at
materially less prices h oil light costs
will supersede the latter. We hope the
ssLawrence'' fills the bill.

MEMORIAL DAY.
Preparations for Its Observance in Deer Lodge

Z " = " ia OSSS AOU6S.
At the meeting of Geo. H. Thomas Post,
G. A. r., last Friday evening, the matter of
Memorial Day services YVES the principal
one under consideration. Thu general com.
mittee reported recommending hat the ora
ton be dispensed with, the long march to
the cemetery and return, the time required
to stand in ranks during the Ritual services
and grafton, and the return march being
more severe exercise than ma ny of the men,
bers can well undergo, especially if the day
is hot. The Ritual services, vocal and in
strumental music and decoration exercises
occupy considerable time, and it was thought
best to omit the Grafton. The report was
adopted. @
Committees of Comrades, to some of which
are to be added citizens aud which have not
vet been reported to us, were then appoint
ed. These will appear with thee entire order
of exercises next week. From all Indications
the observance here will be universal. The
Knights Of Pythias, as a uniformed body
have been invited to participate and nave
accented. The Deer Lodge Brass band will
lead the procession, and a number of ladies
aad gentlemen will furnish the vocal music,
OF which in the omission of the Grafton there
may be moro than usual. The Post Will
omit no effort to rave the Memorial Day
services this year, like those preceding, an
occasion when all our people can reverently
assemble as a community on this festival
day of the dead, not only to do honor to the
memory Of its fallen comrades, but to all who
sleep beneath the sod or sea.

Mr.. Laforcade was a partner of Mr.. Abas-
cal in the merchandising business, Bear
town, and one of whom all men spoke as an
honest, upright, generous-hearted man. He
came from California to Montana In 1867,
bringing in one of the largest pack trains
that ever came to Montana, and has since
been engaged in business there. He was
known to all who have lived in that camp
and to all as "a good man." His remains
were brought to Deer Lodge for interment,
accompanied by a number of friends, among
whom were Joaquin Abascal, P. Birming-
ham and wife, James II. Hartford, Joseph
D.. Armstrong;, James Fleming, Chris.
Cloudy, John Austin, Michael McDermott,
