STREET RAILWAY SERVICE
No Better in Amy City Of Its Size in the
United states.


1t is doubtful whether there is an
other city OF It's SIZE in the United
states which has better street rail
way service than Grand Rapids Pre-
vious to January l, 1881, there were
several lines operated by different
companies At that date. however. all
the lines were consolidated, and the
Street Railway Company of Grand
Rapids was organized and took posses
slon of the several lines. From that
day there has been constant
growth and a constant Improvement
IA the service. TINS company now
operates twenty-six miles OF
track and has about go employees on
it- payroll during the summer months
When the dummy line Is IN opera
ton, beside q band OF fourteen pieces
which it employs TO play at Reed 5
Lake. Some idea of the importance of
the company IN itS relations TO the city
may be known from the following
facts: The company spends about
100000 per year IN the city, purchasing
almost all Us supplies, except rails, at
home. The company has transported
within one year about four and three
fourths millions OF passengers; 1t Uses
50 horses and 10 cars; and its
total average mileage per day IS 1906.
That j. 10 say, cars are drawn daily
about three times the distance from
Grand Rapids 10 New York city. Dur
ng the past year the company spent
on rs tracks and buildings >ll$,S0O, OF
which amount 80 0o0 was for equip

THE CITY'S GROWTH.
The New Directory VIII Indicate Popu
Iation OF $4,000.


Il. l.. Polk Il Co. are just now en-
gagged in compiling the names for a
new directory of Grand Rapids. The
work has not yet progressed far enough
to enable them to give exact statistics
as to the growth of the city. They say,
however, that their work has gone far
enough to show that there has been a
rather surprising increase IN the busl-
ness development OF the city and very
encouraging growth IN population. The
total number of names III the new d.
rectOry. Judging from the increase OF
names under the initial letters already
compiled, Will be over thirty thousand.
1t Is customary 10 multiply the names
in a directory hy three, three and one
half or four, TO make an estimate OF
tn total population. Using the small
est OF these figures, the present popula-
ton j. shown TO be about ninety-two
thousand. II the limits of the corpora
ton were extended so "a to include all
the inhabitants who properly belong 10
