the Stollberg hardware houses, the
Baumgardner and Miller & Hadley dry
goods concerns and the r. A. BARLEY
grocery house are in evidence in this
line
The city as retail center is steadily
coming into prominence. Toledo is sit
uated in the heart of one of the most
gloriously resourceful sections of the
world. 1t is accessible to millions of
people. The merchants, as a rule, ap-
peal to an intelligent and cosmopolitan
clientele. Purchasers from the neigh
boring States of Michigan and Indiana,
who avail themselves of the fine trolley
line service, are seen at the counters
of the stores of Toledo every day. The
merchants seem able to meet the ex-
acting requirements of people who want
what they want when they want it.
Among the attractive general stores
of the city are those of w. l.. Miner e
Co, La Sale &; Koch, Lamson Brothers,
and Neuhausel Brothers, and the Daudt
glass and crockery house.
The business interests of the city
maintain a Chamber of Commerce. 1t
is strong organization, having over
500 members. The aggregate capital
represented by the membership runs
into many millions of dollars. The
headquarters of the Chamber of Com
merce is in the Nasty Building. The
officers are w. L. Miner, President; p.
w. Baumgardner, Vice President; f. H.
Dodge, Treasurer, and 6. IL. Storer, Sec
rotary. The Chamber is now on its first
sure footing, never before having had
such large and active membership.

nature had prepared, and planning ac-
cordingly, the city is pretty square
proposition There was some marsh
land along the river front in early days,
the haunt of the "Pieds Humides," as
the French would say-the wet feet
but miles of wharves now make sure
footing.
Street car service is supplied by the
Toledo Railv IS &, Light Company as
we'll as by the 10 interurban lines,
which cover hundreds of miles of the
surrounding country. The city lines
have trackage of about 40 miles.
The configuration of the city admits
matter of drainage is one of impor-
tance, and the superior sanitary condi-
ton of the city is largely due to the
thoro manner in which the plans of the
engineering department have been car
ried out The''total length Of all sewers
is about $50 miles.
If telephone and electric light wires
are considered among the arteries, To-
lcdo is well supplied. The lighting of
the streets is noticeable to all visitors.
Summit istreetsin particular, is great

with which light blazes from arc lamps,

THE HUNGER OF THE CITY.
This Is Appeased by Good Hotels, Res
taurants and Groceries,


The first regular hotel in Toledo was
the Eagle Tavern, on Summit near Elm.
opened in 1884, by Ira Smith. The city
now has hotels and restaurants up to
date in all of the demands of modern
life. There are no less than so of them,
large and small, besides many boarding
houses, and the wayfaring man can find
an abiding place suited to his liking and
purse.
The Toledo Hotel Mems Association
includes 3 hotels and restaurants; 13
is a favorite number, as there are Is
wards in the city and IS townships ia
the County. There were Is States In
the original Union. This number. about
which there is so much superstition,
plays an important part in Amer lean
affairs, in which the country at large
gets the best of it. There was time
when bakers gave 13 as q dozen, hence
the term. "a bakers Dozen" a custom
discontinued in these days, but not he
cause the public objected to the num-
Der. These hotel men of Toledo have
not. suffered any by being an associa-
| ton of IS. The President is w II.
Saltonstall. of the Tavern, and the
Secretary is C.. E. Young. of the South
ern. The names of the hotels and pro-
prietors are as follows: The Body,
Puffer & Wall: The Jefferson. Bond &
Mcconnell: The st. Charles, d c.
DYER; The Southern. C. E. Young; The
Tavern, Kelly & Saltonstall; The Nj
agara, Severcool & Dyer; The st. Clair.
s. Fl. Burt; The st. James, Sewers &
Hall: The Merchants, j. n. Smith; The
SchncIiman, George Schuchman; The
Hofhau Restaurant Joseph Kcst; Pat
tersnn's Restaurant. w. c. Patterson;
| Conveys Cafe, E. w. Conley.
| There are other excellent hotels not
| in the association, of which we have
pleasure in narning The Monticello, cor
ner of Jefferson and Michigan; The
| Madison, corner of Madison and Onta-
rio, both popular as family houses. M.
| R. Burroughs, manager of The Laurel,
corner of Washington and St Clair,
served through the civil war in Co. c.,
| 9th Indiana Cavalry. James Willhite
& Son are proprietors of The Mechan-
ics' Hotel. % North st. Clair street.
To Judge from the tempting array OF
fruits, vegetables and other things good
land provision stores of Toledo no hun
makes but little difference, for the cars
bring products from the Winter gardens
| of the South, while the country around
with its fertile acres. supplies the mar
| kets in other seasons.
Toledo is also quite q fish center, hay-
I ing several fish-packing and shipping
| houses. The Maumee River is goo6
| fishing ground, while out in Lake Erie
an abundance of fine fish is taken In
season, and prices are usually such thai
even the poorest family can indulge
And there is nothing to prevent mar
from going out and catching a mess Of
= fish on his own account.
