JOSEPH RICHARDS.
Butte's Popular and Leading Undertaken
and Embalmer.

There are few business or professional
callings in which so marked a change
has taken place within the last two
decades as in that OF the undertaken
and embalmer. Volumes have been
written about the lost art OF embalming
possessed by the Egyptians. but mod
ern science has 50 far surpassed the
ancients in embalming that regrets for
the lost are no longer heard. Science.
the handmade of modern progress, Is
now the guide in all well-regulated un-
dertaking establishments. and the
skilled embalmer Is a necessity.
The sombre aspect once so common
20 undertaking roons has given place
TO art decorations and flowers. and
there are now no more attractive ofices
or business rooms than those OF the
modern. up-to-date undertaken.
Among the progressive undertakes
and embalmers OF Butte none stand
higher than Mr.. Joe Richards, who
Is recognized by the press and public as
He has that pleasing manner and at
ira presence that never fails TO
win friends, and which relieves the
funeral OF much Of It's gloominess.
Mr.. Richards Is a graduate in en-
balming from the Embalming school OF
Boston. conducted by the celebrated
Prof. r. A. Sullivan. He IN 70 years OF
age and a native of England. For five
years he has successfully conducted an
undertaking business in his city at
40 West Park street. He Is sound In
Judgment. liberal in his views and pos
sesses an extensive knowledge OF men
| and things. From 1895 TO 1897 he served
the city as coroner. He h not only
noted among Butte's e~nterprising citi-
gems. but he is n gentleman ever ready
10 extend a helping hand To those de-
serving charities which come to his
notice.

We have heard considerable talk
among the republicans of this vici-

comes from a part of the county
that has had no representative; and
it is claimed that Capt. Nice is a

They are gold hunters, and will
prospect down in that country for

the old soldier, ]. S. Conklin is
fighting his last desperate battle. /
He is enfeebled with age but he is
grandly. The disease
against which he is making his TN
equal struggle is the result of
frightful wound received in the ser
vice OF his country, and which for
more than thirty years has made
him a hopeless, suffering invalid.
Now the unequal contest is about
ended. and we fear that by the time
this is in print the old soldier will
have made his first surrender, and
death will have gained another
victory.

tai building at Siletz were opened
