DEL MONTE HOTEL.

Western cities and towns arc often judged by their hotels. In a com munity that lacks enterprise will usually be found poor accommodations for the travelling public, while the progressive places take especial pains that the tourist does not want for hrst- class food or sleeping accommodations
 To those who have once enjoyed the hospitality of mine host Chrisman of the Del Monte, it is sufficient to say that he is sustaining his former reputa- ton of keeping one of the neatest and cleaucst hostelrics in the Territory.
 The house has lately been refurnishcd and painted throughout. The sleeping apartments arc tastily furnished in a style unsurpassed by any hotel on the liuc of the Atlantic X Pacific. The Del

 Good clothes ale one of thc.esSential attributes of gentleman ofthe present day, but his attire would be incom- plete if he had only good clothes and was poorly shod. No article worn by the human racr can cause as much suf- fering as an inrpcrfcctly made shoe or boot. There is IS much skill displayed in the manufacture of foot wear as any other article of personal wear or adorn- mcnt. Mir Manson's work speaks for itself, and it is undoubtedly equal to any made in the Territory. He is a pioneer in his line, and the fact that he retains his old patronage is sufficient evidence that he has given satifaction to his customers.
