What Phoenix has needed and want ed for many months has been furnished her by the opening yesterday of the Gass Brothers Cafe, a first-class res taurant The question of securing a meal at a reasonable price, served by white help in a quick ana careful man. ner and in a place where the surround ings tend 10 give one an appetite has been solved. That it will be appreci- ated was fairly demonstrated by the large number of people the cafe served yesterday and last night and from every one who was served came words of praise and satisfaction.
 new place to eat is always attract i've to those of Phoenix who do not keep house. It is made doubiy attract i've when the linen is white and clean, the chinaware of finer quality than the usual Restaurant heavy ware. and the silverware real silver and clean ard bright. Add to this a bul of fare to order from which abounds in all the market affords and served to one in the manner in which it should be served by courteous witnesses and one has a combination that is pleasing to ! any restaurant trade.
 l.. R. Gass. one of the brothers. pro- l several months ago from Chattanooga, Tenn. He had been in the restaurant business for several years. The mos, forcib'e thing that struck him about Phoenix was the fact that in the whole ! town there was not an eating house strictly first class. He at once inter- ested himself in the business here and began to study the Phoenix market as to buying and the possible trade a first class establishment would enjoy. This done he decided to enter the field. His pans were laid and carried out on a scale in which the expenditure of money was not considered in attain ing the desired end.
 His linen was in quality the best. h.s silver and chinaware were of the mol ern hotel style. his help was to be en- tirely white and his food the very best in the market. To cook the food ex- lperienced men were employed as chefs and bakers. But most of all, the room
 itself was to be made presentab ble IDecora tors were hired and have worked for weeks past making it so. From
 the floor to the ceiling something has
 been done to make the room attractive
 A big point and something all former eating places in Phoenix has lacked a set of suction fans has been put in ust
 to keep from the dining room the odors
 and smell of the kitchen. The lighting
 of the place is perfect and fans for the comfort of guests will be used.
 Cleanliness is the watchword of th' manag cement. first in the storerCom
 then the bakery, the butcher shop. the
 range room. The steam tables are al operated and built with a view of keep ing things clean. The most interesting
 parts, possibly. of the whole establish
 ment are the two huge refrigerators
 one of them used in the pantry room
 and the other in the kitchen. Built or
 sanitary principles they are of the dr!
 cold air type.
 The dining room has a seating caTac
 ity of one hundred and for the accom-
 modation of larger gatherings if it il
 desired a banquet room is being fitted
 up on the second floor. Tn the who'll
 arrangement there is that lack O
 gaudiness that shows good taste in tn
 plan of arrangement and there is tha
 show of simplicity which makes tn
 cafe attractive.
 Any regular short order bill is ob
 tainable at any hour of the day O morning until it is exhausted a specia dinner bill of fare will be provided. l novelty in Phoenix is the employmen
 exclusively of female waitresses il serving. The place gives promise O deserving the large patronage it re
 ceived on opening day as indicated b.
 yesterdays receipts.
