Wholesale Grocery Moving.

After numerous delays the new
building of the lola Wholesale Gro
Gerry near the Santa Fe depot on West
Madison avenue has been completed
and the company has begun moving
its stock into it. The, dimensions of
the building are about 80 by 100 feet,
two full stories high. The walls are
of lola pressed brick and the whole
structure is built solidly and will hold
up any amount of goods.
Immediately upon entering one goes
into the large sample room, to the
right is the presidents office and to
the left is the general Office. Con-
nected with the general Office is the
vault where the books and papers will
be kept. One may pass from any of
the offices directly into the wholesale
department where the goods are stored
and where they are made ready for
shipment. You go from this room up
stairs where the woodenware and
other light merchandise is kept, the
entire upstairs being one room. A
large elevator is placed to the left of
of the center of the building to facili-
tate the handling of the goods and
two doors open directly upon the
track where two cars may be unloaded
at the same time. Three cars we're
unloaded this week directly into the
new building and their weekly receipts
will probably be five or six cars.
Mr.. Achter who has been on the
road will remain in the Office after
this and three men will be kept on the
jump all the time securing orders.
The Office force will also be added to
as there will be quite lot of more
work attached to it under the new
order of things. The officers of the
company are as follows: Hermon
Tholen, Pres; Ben Achter, Vice-Pres.
Lutte p. Slower, Sec. and Treasurer.

WHAT THE HOSPITAL NEEDS.
The Mayor Makes Direct Appeal for
Donations of Cash and Household
Necessities.

The city council recently appropri-
ated $1,000 to assist i'm securing sheets,
comforts and cots for the hospital.
The ladies of the Relief Corps have
volunteered to take charge of the work
and a committee for that purpose Wis
tied the hospital and secured list of
such articles needed which is as
follows:
6to 10 cots, which cost withmattress-
es and pillows, 81. each:
4dozen bowls and pitchers;
, dozen sheets, full width:
3 dozen pillow cases, Is to 20 inches
wide, yard in length;
towels:
dozen night shirts;
| dozen gauze undershirts:
tdozen ladies' gowns;
dozen pillows;
2 bed-pans;
I dozen commodes:
dozen rugs, or remnants of car
pets;
! ! dozen bed spreads, light weight;
! dozen light stands:
| dozen light cot blankets.
So you see the cash at hand will not
supply them. The ladies requested
me to makethis appeal for contribu-
tions of each of the articles mentioned
and to say that they will be received
by Mrs. Turner at her millinery store
on West Madison. All articles will
be marked before taken to the hospit-
al "loaned by w. Il. c"
While at the hospital one of our
business men came in, laid down $500
saying this is for Mr.. labor
ing man, and here is 500, credit
that to Hobo" Another came in and
said, Il am poor laboring man but
here is a dollar: | don't know how
soon l may be brought here for treat
ment.'
