ed for the owners occupancy. There IL
small time for investment building to
any great extent in this line in Butte as
yet. The people are too busy. They see
greater opportunities for quicker and
larger returns for their money in other
ways.
Along the business portion Of
Butte may be seen, in the course
Of construction and the first work of
excavation numerous large and costly
business and office blocks. With state
ly architecture and elaborate decoration,
trimming and plans for convenience
within, these huge blocks are being
thrown up. Not 1000 feet on any street
in the business portion but there are
several new buildings being erected.
The completion of the blocks now I'M
der way of construction will add mate
rally to the looks of Butte. Heretofore
the small "shack" or the 'two-story
brick" sufficed for great many pur-
poses in the busy city. No one cares
to waste the revenue from rents neces-
sarily lost by time consumed in erect
ing larger buildings 1t has arrived at
that stage where there is no escape from
the building period. There is no boom
absolutely no sign of boom. Nothing
is being built but there is an immedi-
ate use and necessity for it. Before the
business blocks are fairly started and
generally before the plans and specifica
tions are completed there are calls fol
store-rooms, Office room or leases of tn,

tone to the city are a group now being

Crowds At the Race Track.

"The crowd out at the races must be
pretty big one said a business man of
Butte yesterday, "for the streets during
the afternoon are sparsely filled with
pedestrians walking their way to and
fro on the various errands that usually
occupy people during the day. The
crowd must be pretty large when it
takes a gang out of Butte that can be
missed by the ordinary observer. l
noticed it the first day and I have heard
a great many people speak of 1t. Butte
streets are usually busy and there are
few hours out of the "a that there is nos
something of stir going on. The race
track is pretty well patronized place."
The REMARKS quoted above are only q
sample of the comments heard on every
hand. The races C.. take the crowd out
of town and the first day the horses be-
gan tc hold the attention of the crowd
there was no less than three thousand
people at the track. This number was
drawn from the city of Butte and came
from every section of the city-being
principally composed of the people who
ordinarily crowd the streets and make
up the busy, hurrying, pushing. throngs
that push their way along the busiest
parts Of the business district.

sketch Of the grand stand and the track

the crowd was the thickest and placing

city. A number of fine buildings are all
ready due to his faith in the citys pres
ent and future. Mr.. Clark's latest move
in the building line is the erection of
fine six-story combination building on
West Park street not far from Main
street. The building will be used for
offices and living rooms up stairs and
store rooms on the ground floor. On
Academy street the uilding will meas
ure 20 by 30 feet and Is by so on Park
street. The second and third floors OF
this expensive building will be rented
for offices and the fourth, fifth and sixth
floors for living rooms The rooms will,
like other modern buildings now going
up be fitted with the latest conveiences.
The upper floor of Mr. Clarks building
will be used by H. A. Kennedy of the
Kennedy Furniture company, he hav-
ing secured a lease on that floor. The
Fair will occupy the corner store and
basement. This block has been delayed
some on account of the steel which is to
be used being 60 days late in arriving.
The exterior will be of grey pressed
brick and Terra Gotta. The finish Will
be quarter sawed white oak. Mr.. Pat
terson is also the architect of this build
ing.

NJ. Patterson, the architect. has provided
plans for three stories and a basement.
The main entrance will be on Park
street while the building will run through
the block and be four stories on Ga
lena street. The width of the building
on Park street will be 102 feet, while
on Galena street the width will meas
ure 128 feet. The length of the block
is to be POS feet and the building will
give about three acres Of floor space. It
is estimated that the cost of this block
which Senator Clark expects to have
completed by the first of next year, will
be about 100000.
The building will be used on the lower
floors for store rooms and the upper floors
will be fitted up for offices. There will
be So rooms on the second floor and 81
room on the third floor. Part of the
building will also be used for lodging
purposes. Each room in the building will
contain a stationary wash stand, closet,
etc., and will be finished in oak .
The front of the building is to be OF
cut sand stone, which will be obtained
from Senator Clark's quarry at Bridger,
Mont.
Here will be put in plate glass which
will be larger than any ever before used
in the state of Montana. Hot and cold
water and steam heat will be put ir
each room and the building will be one
| of the finest to be found for the pur
poses for which it is to be used.

- USY, humming Butte, the famods
mining city of the northwest,
where neither trees nor shrubbery
grows, and where many in the far
east and some of the west be-
lieve that only those who are seek
ing riches can live, is, notwithstand-
ing these drawbacks, forging to the
front in population, business and per-
manency. Butte today is the most in
dustrious and prosperous city for its size
or age in the whole United States. No
other town or municipality can boast OF
the steady daily growth. and none con
look forward to the bright future which
the city situated on the greatest mining
belt of this continent has.
Those who have resided or engaged in
business in the practically young mining
camp for number OF years do not real
ize the condition which exists in Butte.
and which are apparent to the eye in
the great city. AS certain Is It that
Butte will, within q. few years, be double
its present size, as it Is that the millions
of dollars of ore lying beneath and about
her very streets must make her inhab-
itants prosperous.
Butte is not only racing to the front,
but her race is backed by substantially,
her way or road for retrograding is
being closed. There can be no decline
for Butte. Her permanency is certain.
Time and time again this has been DEM
onstrated by the greatest mineralogists
OF the day, and the business men and
residents of the city are becoming aware
of that fact. The new buildings, dwell
ings, store rooms and business blocks
with which Butte is now dotted are being
erected not only for the present, but to
stand in the future. Everybody builds
for permanency. From the first founda-
ton stone to the last finishing touch of
the roof and the inside work good SUBJ
stantial material and Workmanship has
preference.
"A ride over the city and views from
the various points of vantage will con-
vince the most skeptical of the fact that
there is more building going on in tho
Butte today than ever before. The
residences are. to great extent, being
erected in the southwest portion of
Butte. Here new streets are being
opened, and here an opportunity for
good locations has been had. Only re-
Gently did the city council decide to
throw open street in the Iron addition.
"A few months ago lots could be bought
in that district for 5000, now the same
pieces of ground call for from $500 to
800, according to the location. On every
Dot of recently opened ground there
is a dwelling being erected. An invest
.ment of $500 there for house and
Dot will bring in returns of from SIS tt
800 per month. Where, in the east OF
west, can this be equaled in the real
estate line? Notwithstanding this fact
few are building residences for invest
ment. Nearly every home is being erect.

Hamill and Dolan have given bond
to have the work done in that time.
The second and third floors of the build

while the ground floor will be constructed

In the basement. Every room will have
two outside windows. with stationary
wash stands, hot and cold water and

Messrs. Reynolds & Mcdowell feel sure
that property on the south side of Butte
between Main and Montana streets
will be in big demand very soon
and therefore selected this site for their
block.
