Beautiful Art Booklets and Catalogues
and Reliable Methods.

Since 1862. when the business was esrab-
lished, the firm Of Gibson Bros. has con-
Quoted a successful printing and bookbind-
ing enterprise.
With its magnifcently equipped estab-
lishment this firm is in a position to exc
cute any and all kinds of work in their line
with promptness and excellence rarely
equaled.
The business was established by John and
George Gibson in 1862. In 1868 William
Gibson, who was at that time connected
with the Baltimore Commercial formerly
the Clipper was taken into the firm.
The three brothers conducted the business
until 1897, when John died, leaving William
and George to continue the enterprise.
William Gibson was born in Ireland, Octo
Der 8. 1923, and George was born there Sep
TENDER 4, 1889. Both came to this country
quite young. William Gibson served In the
civil war before entering the firm.
The firms plant, at 1898 Pennsylvania
avenue is one Of the most completely equip
ped in this section of the country. 1t in
cludes every facility for printing, stereotyp-
ing and bookbinding. Steam and electric
power is used and all of the most modern
machinery, including cylinder and platen

ment Of the business. owing to the ILL
health of Mr.. Slower, was left entirely IN
Mr.. Doves hands. Approaching the ne
cessity, on account of the rapid growth OF
the business under his management, OF
greater facilities for the conduct thereof.
Mr.. Slower, acting under Mr.. Doves ad-
vice, secured control Of the wharf property
at the foot of F and G streets, this city.
and established a branch yard at the cor
ner Of 18th and H streets northwest, where
a coal yard had been conducted for many
years by Mr.. H. Clay Stewart.
In May. 1880, Mr.. Slower died and tho
business was taken In charge by Slower and
Company, the firm consisting of Mr. VIM.
]. Wilson and Mr.. ]. Maury Dove. This
copartnership was dissolved April 1, 1882
and from that time until September 2, 1902,
when the j. Maury Dove Company was in
corporated 1t was conducted entirely by
Mr.. j. Maury Dove.
On the date Of the organization of the
company the businesses Of Mr.. VIM. H.
Baum, who for thirty-lour years has been
in the coal business Of Washington, and
Messrs. Hagner and Merriam were merged
into the new company, the officers and d.
rectors of which are as follows: Mr. ].
Muary Dove, president; Mr. VIM. FL. Baum
vice president; Mr.. W. Hamilton Smith,
manager: Mr.. VIM. M. Dove, secretary;
Mr.. Randall II. Hagner, assistant manager.
and Mr.. Michael A. Coughlan, treasurer.
On the organization Of the company Mr..

when last year abou. 10000 tons were dis

The business now conducted by the j.

established in 1850 by Solomon Slower, esq,
the office and yard being located at the
corner of 2lst and l streets northwest. AT
that time no anthracite coal reached Wash

water, and Mr.. Stovers supplies were un-
loaded at the mall In Georgetown and haul

Of the business at the above-named point
placed Mr.. Slower in the close vicinage OF
what. in those days, was the fashionable
part of Washington, and his reputation for
honorable dealing soon secured for him a
most enviable patronage. and formed the
nucleus Of the immense family trade OF the

When visitors to the capital OF the nation

they dwell upon above all others is of the
glorious sweep OF our wide tree-lined ave-

In no other city Of the world can such
streets be found. A few cities, perhaps,

fnstance-but it is only in spots. Certainly
no other city can equal with us in our al

Too much cannot be said in praise of our
