Thirty-six years ago when T. X.
Tomson built the business house on
the northwest corner of Eighth and
Kansas avenue, people thought he
was taking a great risk in putting SO
much money into a place way up
town" The principal business dis
trict was north Of Sixth street, but
Mr. Tomson took a chance, and never
experienced any trouble in finding
renters. The first tenants Of the
ground floor and basement were F.

Wear in turn sold to a Mr.. Arid, who

in the place until eight years ago.
And then Mr.. C. w. Snyder. who
decided to put a Topeka link in his
chain Of state banks. chose the Eighth
street corner. 1t had been grocery
store for over a quarter Of a century.
and, although 1t was considered a fine
building at the time Of its construc-
ton. it didn't suit Mr.. Snyder. Things
began to happen to the corner. and
what really occurred may be best
shown by the contrast in the two
pictures, one taken in 1873 and the
other in 1914. It may be seen that
Mr. Snyder didn't leave much OF the
original building except the location.
and the corner il now one Of the
classiest in town. And within q few
