AVithin a short time, he with Iris brother Leon Gass pur chased the Hoghe Chop House, pay ing $1,100 for the business 'and fix tures. They succeeded so well in this business that the two brothers, decided to give Phoenix a big. up-to-date restaurant. They bought the establishment known as "Coffee Al's Place" from Al Williams, located on Washington street. About $.1000 was spent in fixing this place up. How ever, within a year, the venture proved to be a failure. The brothers lost $S000 in all and were left in a state worse than broke.

Diligent application at all times made It one. of the most popular eating houses in Phoe nix and from that time on both men prospered as Is shown by recent In vestments they have made. About a year ago Charles and Leon Gass opened a second chop house, calling it the Gass Brothers' Annex which was located on Adams street, opposite the Valley bank. -This place soon lccaine as popular as the original, and proved a financial suc cess. Charles Gass had saved sufficient money last fall to invest In one of the handsomest ranches in the valley; being satisfied that Phoenix was destined to becomo a great town and believing that this valley was the right place for him, he purchased the Wolff twenty acre ranch at the northeast corner of town, paying for it $9000 cash, his idea being that this would make a splendid thing in con nection with the operation of a first class eating house in Phoenix on which would bo produced all the milk, poultry, eggs and vegetables for use in the new eating house he knew he would soon open. Several months ago, it was decided by the Gass brothers to dissolve' part nership and each one take over one of the enterprises in sole ownership, at which time. Cliarles Gass took into partnership J. n. Henke who Is his partner in the new "Golden Rule Chop House" about to be open. Leon Gass paid Chas. Gass $4000 for his half interest in the Gass Bros Chop House, on Xorth Central avenue, to which place Leon Gass will give his full attention. o BOUGHT AND SOLD AGAIN II 400 ACRES NEAR CHANDLER RANCH Big Business of the E.
