The many friends of Lydia T.. Kceler
learned with much sadness of her death
on October 2S. She had not quite
reached her 18th birthday, and had been i'll
for only few days. She was loved by all
who knew her, for her bright and winning
ways. She had been for a number of years
a very active member of the junior En-

by large circle of friends, and their deep
sympathy goes out to the bercaVed family
in their atfliction.

Park Avenue.

The most important real estate transfer
made this year In Anaconda was consum-
mated yesterday when James Shields
purchased of Mrs. Berry her lot on Main
street, adjoining the Smith Drug COM
pany's store. The consideration was
$1,000. The transfer was negotiated by
Fox d O'Brien.
Mr.. Shields intends to improve the
property at once and began preparations
yesterday afternoon. He will erect there
on q two or three story brick block, so
feet fronting on Main street and extend
ing 100 feet to the alley. There will be
two store rooms on Main street and two
facing Park avenue. The upper floors will
be devoted to Office rooms and apart
ments. The building will cost in the
neighborhood of So, 900 and will have all
modern improvements. The location is
one Of the best in the city and the block
will be . substantial addition to the APP
pearance of the city.
The Copper City did not get the capital,
but no town of any size In the state can
compare with the healthy, steady growth
of Anaconda during the last year, and the
list OF improvements now in progress and
contemplated discounts any that can be
shown by any city in the Northwest.
