, CENTRAL COLLEGE.
This is another educational institut,
Of more than ordinary interest anC
takes the highest rank in the matte
of business educational concerns
Being as it is, under the management
of one of the ablest, most energetic
and efficient educators of tn,
land endowed with an originality anC
genius in his line never surpassed, j
cannot fail to impress the visitor with
the vastness and importance of thi.
branch and the fine perfection of art
which can be attained under proper
tutelage in all Its departments. Thi.
school already has national reputa
ton as one of the foremost in the
country and is constantly advancing,
THE RAILROAD HOSPITAL.
This institution, which is the prop.
erty of the Missouri Pacific railroad
and which furnishes asylum for
the sick and injured of It's employees
over a space of country embracing
central and western Missouri, Kansas,
Texas and Nebraska, is another point
of interest to strangers and is one of
the handsomest adorrments of the
eastern portion of the city. Carefully
managed, scrupulOusly clean and
neat, supplied with the most
skillful physicians and surgeons, and
all the latest improvements and appli-
ances known to the medical art, IT
stands a monument of credit to the
railroad company and school of ex-
perience to the rising young physi-
clans of the land.
THE ELECTRIC LIGHT WORKS.
This comparatively new invention
furnishes an endless fund of marvels
for the uuinitiated, as well as a rem
dolence of light which is perfectly
dazzling and incOmprehensible to
them. Although it is but little over
a year since the works were erected
all the business portion of the city,
including the business houses, hotels
and principal streets, also the railway
system are lighted brilliantly by cleo.
tricity, as is also the park and fair
grounds, a mile from the CITY.
and the system has been brought
to such perfection that it
gives universal satisfaction.
THE GAS WORKS.
This time-hOnOred and useful adj
junct of first-class city finds full de-
velOpment in Sedalia, and in spite of
the innovations of electricity still
holds place among her chief improve
ments. The works being among the
finest in the state and the gas manu-
featured of the purest and best
quality.
THE FAIR GROUNDS.
OF these it is almost superhuOus to
speak to those visiting the city to-day
as they will be there to see for them
selves, but they can but cheerfully
corroborate the statement that no
where in America can finer, more
more pleasant or more |
handsomely planned and adorned |
grounds be found; supplied |
with an abundance of handsome
buildings, one of the finest
lalfmile tracks and grand |
stands in the country, a large
irst class hotel with a capacity for
900 boarders, with beautiful lakes,
irives, walks, harbors, shade trees and
III the appliances of electric and gas
lights, telephone connections and 9TH
n modern aids. Surrounded by one
# thr handsemest prairie countries in
ne world and reached by street cars
presents to all corners, both in and
ut of fair time, one of the most at
ractive feature of the city.
THE TELEPHONE.
This new Innovation has also received I,
ull and complete recognition by the
progressive people of Sedalia, as
almost every business
nd private house is connected by the
ystem, as is also the park, the water
forks, the nighboring town of La
miles distant-and a ,
lumber of country residences. Ar {
ingements are also being made, I
'hich, within another year, will con-
ect all towns and cities within a radius
twenty miles with Sedalia, thus at
riding a speedy communication for s
lat distance in every direction with G
