LIVE LERADO,
The Booming City of Reno
County.
A City Springs Up in a Day-Fihy
Houses in Course Of Construction.

On the Denver, Memphis and Atlantic
line, through Reno county, there is spring.
ing up city known as Lerado. The town
company was incorporated with the follow
ing incorporators: John A. Brady. presi-
dent; Ed Wilder, vice-president; John A.
Brady, treasurer; II. NJ. DAVIS, secretary,
and Frank A. Niblack. general agent, as in
corporators of Kentucky. The Kansas in
corporators are John A. Brady, Lee NJ.
Hall, Carson NJ. Bay, j. F. Martin and John
Lindsey The offices are l55 Third street,
Louisville, Ky, and Lerado, Reno county,
Kansas
The new city is situated in township &c,
range west, fourteen miles northwest Of
Kingman, on one of the tributaries of the
Minnesota, Masch river, and one of the
most pleasantly situated town sites in the
county, with abundance of water and pleas
ant groves of young trees. The survey was
recorded on the 18th of September and now
there are in course of erection or under
contract forty-seven houses. Lots sold for
S25 at the sale last week and now have ad-
vanced to SIS and 500. 1t is in every re-
spect booming city with full dozen
capitalists at its back, and within few
months will consume large quantity
Of bnilding material. The great
drawback now is the want of lumber
Being tributary to Wichita large portion
of the material will go from this city by way
Of Kingnan. a large number of wagon
loads go daily from the latter place. Heavy
machinery has been transported there to
press brick under the plan of the Mexican
Portland cement patent known as the
Baton cement. Large quantities of thi:
material is under contract A number Of
fine business houses are in course Of erection
The town company represents large wealth
and a number Of interpretations are back Of
it, forming syndicate that will be at once
powerful and effectual in booming the new
Eureka. They have determined to inves
every dollar brought in for the sale of lot
for number OF years in improving the
city, and as they own eight sections
in body, every endesvor will be made t.
establish city.
Harvey & Co., of this city, will be one O
the new firms there, having made contracts
to build already.
J. Burns, vice-president and genera
manager of the ID. NJ. & a. will commence
westward survey from Kingman, Monday
and set grade stakes. the line will pas
through Lerado.
The commissioners will call an election
for Bell township to vote Sl7,5Oo bonds fol
that road, which will carry, says the inform
ant, as all of Lerado are heart and soul il
the road
Dr. Jno. A. Brady was in the city yester
day and made large contracts for materis
to be shipped out to his new town and ap
pears to be the very kind of a mrn to under
take SO stupendious an enterprise as tn
founding OF city.
