What does the company eonteni-
pia,e doing over here
swell. they are not fond OF telling
III their intentions, but J am IN a
position 10 observe and know many
thinrs. The fire threw them back ia
their work over here, because they had
10 rebuild their burned wharf on the
ether side. They have nov ordered
three miles Of water pipe, with pump
ing machinery, which l. all on the
say. and without doubt we shall have
water over the new city site by the Isl
Of September. Indeed. | think we
viii have cable cars running by winter,
A. the grading down 10 The wharf Is

hall feel ~ each hundred. No doubt
it's intended 10 make this side great
place Of resort n well as a comfortable
place TO live. Interior residences are
not allowed 10 be built, the avenues
aud streets are broad, and the ground
is neither muddy nor dusty. The
avenues run north and south and are
named Cascade, Grand, Raynier
Edgssood, California, Olympic, Vas
hoe and Columbia. The streets ran
ming east and west are named after tht
tres. Maple. Laurel. Spruce. Cedar
hadrone. etc, and perhaps thes,
streets will be lined aud shaded with
the kinds of trees after which they
are namei."
