PORTER d MACRAE,
wholesale GrOcers and Cotton Fac
tors at 500 FrOnt-One OF she
strong Firms OF the CITY,

The two gentlemen who constitute
this firm are among the oldest and
most honored of our business citizens.
They have figured in the trade re-
views Of the city for many years. DIR.
Porter came to Memphis twenty-nine
years ago. Ever since that time he
has not only been leading business
man, but one of the most useful citi-
zens. Mr.. Mscrae has been associated
with him in business for twenty-eight
years. AS business men and as clti.
z,ns they ara srong team. 1t is
doubtful whether any two in the city
have done more than they to gather
10 Memphis the trade of all the sur
rounding oountry. One of their ways
of working this result has been TO
treat everybody kindly. They have
advanced literally, chatged lightly,
and settled fairly with all with wnom
they have traced. L Gated in the
very center OF thu business portion VI
the city, with very large store filed
with all the goods tee retail grocery
man may want, they can f ! orders at
very low prices, shipping promptly
and delivering everything in good
shape. All can rely on the goods
coming up to the recommendations of
the firm. They are among the largest
cotton iactore. Their sample room is
large one, convenient TO buyers,
conducted by salesn an who has the
respect OF all who come into contact
with him. There is no firm in the
city that can be more strongly re-
commended to the retail merchant
and the producer OF c,tton. The bust
ness of the house has grown steadily,
and it is fsvorably known in ell the
country for which Memphis is q
market.

NJ. II. COOVER & co.
Planning Mill and Lumber Yard, I57
to I7S Washington Strset-A
strong Firm.

For about twenty.three years the
senior member of this firm has been
engaged in the lumber business at his
present pace. He has been one of the
most enterpris'Dg OF men, always en-
deavoring to have a good supply OF
lumber, as we'll as to keep the mill
equipped for first class work. In this
latter department he has been perticu-
larly fortunate, tor Covers mill is 10 "
known az the place from which The
very b,st mill work can be obtained.
An experienced and practical man
him5ef, Mr.. Coover understands the
necessity Of having first class men in
his employ. His mill can do the mo-
difficult and durable work. Besides
all grades of lumber, the firm can
always supply orders for doors, sash,
blindq, holdings, door and window
frames, bracket, scroll work, rough and
dressed lumber, shingle', laths, water
tanks, etc. They are at present offering
special inducements ON water tanks
ami scroll work. They are also offer
ing some ex client Bargains to The
trade. 1t is a relishle firm, whoss
judgment and integrity can be relied
on. They are offering everything at
very low prices. All who are con-
tempa ing purchases are requested TO
give Cover & Co a call, or write to
them for prices.

STREET PAVING.
Three Miles Added, Nah log q Total
OF over Twenty-Five.

Memphis now has 22t miles OF
paved streets, of which 81 were paved
during the past year. The cost was
$l03, 1923 "a or 81 70 per square yard.
The following is detailed state
ment of the paving done Sine Sep.
TENDER l, 1886:
Madison, from Front to Second.
Poplar street, from Front to Ma
nassas.
Above with cedar blocks, except
Is feet in center (street car tracks,,
paved with rubble stone.
Third street from Jackson to Win
chesteriAnd intersection at Exchange
and Court streets.
Monroe to Union, all with first
class block stone on heavy Tisho-
mingo gravel foundation, except 14S
feet between Monroe and Union
from alley south to Union, which is
for a distance of eighty feet paved
with blue limestone and for sixty
feet with red Missouri granite on a
concrete foundation of three quarters
of an inch. All curbing on Third
street at the new pavement is of
stone.
Linden, from fernando to Desoto.
Senatobia, from Calhoun to Mis-
souri, and Tennessee railroad yards.
Alabama and Poplar street inter
section, paved with pebble stone.
Madison, Lauderdale and Marshall
avenue intersection. with block stone
on gravel foundation.
Tennessee, from Calhoun to
Georgia, paved with Telford and
ma tadam.
Madison street, from Lauderdale
to Manassas.
Orleans, from Jefferson to Marshall
avenue.
Commerce, from Jackson to Third
street.
All above is paved with Tisho-
mingo gravel and stone cutters.
Marshall avenue, from Orleans to
Union.
Manassas, from Union to Beale.
Mississippi avenue, from Echols
to Georgia.
st. Paul, from Orleans to McKin-
ley.
All above are paved with Tisho-
miugo gravel only.
The increase of average cost per
square for pavings the past year in
comparison to the year previous is
due to the very substantial founda-
tons and pavements on Third street;
to the large amount of grading, and
partly to the stone curbings and ex-
cellent street crossings put down on
all new paved streets.

WATER AND GAS.
Rapid Progress Made In the Part
Year,

ACdEs
By means of contract made du-
ring the past few weeks with the
Memphis Gaslight Company the
streets and public buildings of the
city are now furnished free with gas.
The cost has in the past been about
$4,000 per annum. The contract
runs for ten years and the price has
been reduced to 81 IS per 1000 feet.
So confident, however, is capital in
the future growth of the city that a
new company, known as the Equit-
able, has been formed and announces
its purpose to lay its mains in the
streets within the next twelve months
and furnish gas to consumers at a
price below that now paid.
Surveys have been made BY the
Citizens Water Company In the last
six weeks with view to furnishing
the city with supply from the Mis-
sisslppi, that now taken from Wolf
river failing to meet with public
approval. This company now has
. petition before the Council asking
for rights Of way through the streets
and agreeing to enter into bond to
furnish a supply in given
time, from the Mississippi or
from any other source which
may be designated by the
City Council. The probability is,
however, that the city will make ar
rangements for building, owning and
controlling its own works. A com
mittee often citizens appointed by
the Council to look into the question
of . water supply have agreed upon
a plan which meets with general sp-
proval, and President MADDEN has
made inquiries in New York which
were SO satisfactory that he an
nounccs in the most positive way
that water bonds in any re-
CURED amount can be easily
Heated. The cost will be
about 100000, and as soon
as the necessary legislation can
be procured the work of con-
will be commenced. The
supply will be drawn from a point

PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Large Increase IN Attendance
several New Bulldogs Con-
atrucIed.

Large Increase On Attendance
several New Bulldogs Con-
The large increase in attendance
atthe last session gives promise that
the public schools will receive more
support from all classes in the fut-
ure. Memphis has always taken
pride in her schools, and there is a
disposition at present to do even
more than has been done in the past.
Since September |, 1885, three de-
sirable school lots have been added
to the property Of the city, two by
purchase and the third one, which is
a very desirable lot, by donation
from the United States Government.
The last one referred to is located on
Jefferson and Third streets, in that
portion Of the city very much in need
Of large school building. 1.-Two new
six-room buildings we're opened this
session, the Porter school on Geor-
gia street and the Grant school on
Auction street. Each of these will
accommodate 300 pupils. These two
buildings, and also the Leith school,
were furnished with new desks,
provision which cannot be too highly
estimated as means in educating
pupils and rendering them comfort
able. Contract for a new building
in Chelsea has also been let. The

CITY FINAN' Els.
Rise In the Price of Bonds in the
LAST Year Almost 10 Par.

The financial condition of the city
is now in an excellent condition. The
new bonded debt amounts to, in
even figures, 50, 100000; the interest
on the same is being paid regularly
every six months in January and
July of each year. The debt is being
constantly diminished by the pur-
chase of bonds and by Lamb receiv-
ing them in payment of back taxes.
These bonds are held in high repute
by financiers' who are holding 4 per
cent. at par and 6 per cent. at LOS.
The last purchase made by the city
in the past month was $25 900 at 981
cents. There is money in bank at
this time of sufficient amount to pay
the ensuing January interest. Had
the old debt not been funded our in
debtedness at the present time would
amount to about 100000, which
would have been an incubus upon
the present and future prosperity of
the city. There is about $l25, 900 Of
the old debt not settled.

GOODBAR, LOVE & co.
Tho Largest Wholesale Root aud
Shoe House in the Southwest.

There has been no mercantile Or
ganization formed here within recent
years which has exercised 30 potent
an influence in developing the trade
tributary to Memphis as the firm oil
Goodbar, Love & Co. This organiza-
ton was formed January /, 1885, by
the dissolution Of the firm OF Goodbar
q Co., Messrs. A. B Goodbar and J..
IL. Goodbar retiring from that firm,
and in connection with Mes rs. w. E..
Love and ]. O. Callicott, Of MISSISSIPPI
pi, making up the firm OF Goodbar,
Love 4 Co. 1t can be safely said that
no organization in this country pos
sesses stronger elements OF success
than this firm, combining as it does
long and thorough experience in the
boot and shoe business with energy,
enterprise and large financial resourc-
e. While it was conceded that this
firm would do a large business from
the beginning, it was not supposed
that they would step to the front rank
and occupy the position Of the largest
shippers Of boots: and shoes in the
Southwest on their first years bust
nees. The statistics published weekly
by the Shoe and Leather Reporter of Bos-
ton show that Goodbar, Love & Co.
have shipped more casts Of boots and
shoes from Boston from January l,
1885, to August %, 1885, THAI any
house in Memphis, Louisville, Nash
vile, Atlanta or New Orleans, and
more tbao any house in Cincinnati,
except one. This is a wonderful REQ
ord, considering the fact thai it has
been accomplished in the FACE OF strong
competition from cd established
houses in this and other MARKETS.
Messrs Goodbar, Love & Co. occupy
eight floors in the Hill Building, and
have them filed with a splendid stock
Of boots aud shoes, embracing al
grades aud styles to suit the wants Of
the Southern trade. They employ
eleven travelling statesmen and sell
their goods in the STATES Of Alabama,
Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Ar.
kansas and Missouri.

STREET RAILROADS.
Fourteen Miles of New Track Added
in the Last Year.

There is no immediate prospect of
consolidation of the lines of the
new company, laid within the past
year, with the old.
The Memphis City Railroad Com
pany employs 153 men, runs sixty
cars, and has about twenty miles of
track, covering the best portions of
the city. During the past year it has
expended $65 900 IN betterment. New
track has been laid on Jefferson
street to the Memphis and Charles
ton depot, Poplar srteet to Manassas,
the fernando road to the cemetery,
and Mill street in Chelsea. Prepare
tions are now being made
to lay double track with johnson
rails from fernando street to Lau-
derdale. The company builds all its
own cars, for which it has ample IA
cilities, employing ten mechanics and
turning out, when needed, two each
month. All the old cars are being
dismantled and replaced with new
ones. Fifteen have been built in the
last twelve months, and two winter
cars, which are now in the shops, are
as handsome as any of Eastern man
ufacture.
The Citizens Street Railroad Com
pany commenced construction at the
corner of Madison and Second streets
about October /, 1885. Since that
time it has laid and is now operating
fourteen miles of track, and in the
next thirty days will throw open an
other line out Shelby street. 1t en-
ploys $50 men, works 2O4 mules and
has two fine stables. Its rolling stock
is of the finest description, its tracks
all of johnson rail, and its general
equipment and management in every
way frst-class. 1t has expended 60
far about 1926, 900, and in the next
twelve months expects to extend its
lines still further into the suburbs
