Andy NJ. Mcconnell. vice-president
of The Mutual Laundry Company is
of long experience in laundry work
steam and hand work. He comes to
Denver from Jersey City, N. j., seek
ing a new field for one of his rela-
tives who is in poor health, and who
is also laundryman. Mr.. Mcconnell
is one of the principal stockholders of
The Mutual Laundry Company and is
giving considerable attention to the
establishing of the laundry. Under
his good sound business direction the
company is making fine progress to-
ward an early opening for business.
The agents reported up to last Satur-
day 1853 families who have pledged
their work, which averages weekly 54
cents per family. Mr.. Mcconnell con-
siders these figures very encouraging.
Mr.. McConnells idea of establishing
laundry is more for giving employ
ment than for profit. He states that
he is not acquainted in Denver and
desires to introduce himself by his
work and by helping others.
The Mutual Laundry Company will
not only equip their plant for steam
and fancy hand work, but will have a
mending department which will fur
nish work for the old ladies and girls |
in the Charitable Home. The direc-
tors are jubilant over the fact that
they were so fortunate as to meet and
become associated with Mr.. McCon-
nell and to keep him in Denver, as he /
was contemplating establishing bus
mess in Salt Lake City.

colored physician has her in good
health. There are good white doc
tors, of course, but the members of
the race would do well to consult the |
men whose advertisements appear on
page 8 of this paper before going to
others.
Just one year has passed over the |
head of West Brothers cafe and ice |
cream parlor. yet SO busy has it been
and such a large part has it played
in the social life of the city, that 1t
seems much longer. Such is the re-
ward OF success.
