AMERICAN CLEANING WORKS.

The above named concern is owned by Jake Tharpe and k centrally iocat ed on Center street. It is well equip ped in every way. and k not only well and fatorably known in this section but draws d patronage from as far away as Bisbce and Prescott. The American Cleaning Works is head quarters for all kinds of dyeing. dry cleaning, in adition to doing all kinds of repair work on ladies and gentlemen's garments.
 There is absolutely no excuse for a man going about in suit of clothes with dirt and wrinkles. when for moderate sum he can secure the ser vices of an expert, who can make them appear almost as new. The same ap- plies tO ladies apparel. gloves, etc. The methods used by this concern. are such that the most delicate garments are cleaned or dyed without injuring them in the least. The establishment of this business dates back to five years ago. but it did not come into possession of Mir. Tharpe until d year ago. when he relinquished well es- tablished business in Eureka. Cal. and came to Phoenix. and in that short space of time has developed the busi- ness up to the point where he has en- larged his capacity one half. The fact that he personally supervises every detail and fully guarantees all work. no doubt accounts for the mark ed success achieved in so short space of time.

THE PHOENIX BAKERY
 AND CONFECTIONERY.
Established 1881, Edward EiseIe, Pro,
 prietor-WholesaIe and Retail.

From time immemorial bread has been considered the most important article of food. and for almost the past quarter century Edward Eisele has been supplying residents with this staff of life. When he came to Phoe- nix it was q Mexican adobe town of only d small population, and he at that time constituted the whole work ing force of the Phoenix Bakery. To- day he is the head of one of the most complete bakeries in the entire south-
 west, having mechanical equipment that includes all the latest and most expensive labor saving and sanitary devices. He installed four electric
 motors to enable him to get out the large output of thousands of loaves of his famous "Butternut Bread" every 24 hours. The pastry department has attained an enviable reputation with housewives who find it so convenient
 to phone or call and be able to select
 practically everything in the line of
 pastry. ranging from an Angel food cake to Doughnuts Oike mother tried to malse). It is, therefore, satisfac- ticn to know of a business whose out

The .cnvidblc reputation held by Frank Cavallierc. the propriet- CT of the Pacific Horse Shoeing shop is not measured by local bounds, but extends to all cities fortunate enough to be classed in the Grand Circuit, which he made for six consecutive years and shod and worked only upon race horses. for such famous horse men Is Monroe Saulsberv and Tom Keating.

THE LIGHTNING
 DELIVERY'S SYSTEM.
or Transfer, Storage and Messenger serVi7~.

The wonderful pro.fess of a busi-
 ness was never more fcrcibly demon
 strated than in the meteoric flight of
 the Lightning Delivery, which was es-
 tabi!shed ten years ago by Jasper
 Dcbbs who saw the necessity of es-
 tablishing a system Of parcel delivery
 and messenger service, whose watch
 word should be speed coupled with
 reliability. The venture necessitated
 the purchase of a horse and wagon.
 which was accomplished on credit, and
 taking the limited amount of capital at his command, he invested it in ad- vertising the fact that he was prepar- ed to do work of this character with lightning like rapidity. Chence the nanieJ. The business began to grow and the people and merchants soon began to realize the importance of a business Of this character being al- ways at their immediate service and as they began to take advantage of it. he was soon compelled to add more men and teams to meet the rapidly in creasing business. which has develop ed to the point where he today oper- ates five double teams, three single wagons and has two messenger boys boys and employs frcm 19 to 25 people in the regular routine of business. During the busy season it requires some one to answer phone calls alone, as they average a call every three minutes. In the heavy hauling de- partmept he is splendidly equipped for this kind of woek and hauls a large amount of the merchandise for the merchants. In fact he hauled every pound of material that has gone into the Noble Building, which will give readers some idea of the facilities for heavy work. In the line of safe. piano and furniture moving his equipment is the finest and latest improved. While the successful handling of this busi- ness calls for the employment of con- siderable help. every detail is always under the personal supervision of Mir. Dobbs. whose wide acquaintance the Territory coupled with his pleasant personality makes him very popular He is native of Kentucky but came west when quite young.
