said Uncle Dick Sutton. this morning, as
he surveyed with pride the rapidly grow

THE building will not be entirely fin

the largest houses in the whole west,
and we shall have an opening that will
do it Justice"
The brick work will be entirely finish
ed, nothing unforeseen preventing. by
Monday night, and the building will be

ing week, all the scaffolding and other
impediments being cleared away. At

til it is made self-sustaining.
The scenery is being painted at the

season of the year for the theater COM

paired and new and commodious barns
are to be erected. A great many general
improvements are under way, but the
most important that has come to the
knowledge of the SENTINEL is the renova-
ton and thorough re6tting Of the large
ranch house, which is hereafter to be
known as the Fish Creek Tavern, where
the travelling public can be accommodated
with the best the land affords, at most
reasonable rates. The company has an
eye to the possibilities in that section Of

general public use. has provided psrtic-
ulsr apartments, which are set aside for
the sole use Of bridal couples. This
