General Editorial Review
Thos. Andrews, Granite and Marble Works. We call the attention of our readers to the above named gentleman, who is located on the cor of Water and Mulberry sts., Middletown, as a place where they can get the best of work and materials for low prices. Mr. Andrews began business here in the spring of 1878, and in a short time had convinced the citizens of Middletown that he knew how to do good work. He is prepared to till any orders for granite or marble work, put up mantels, tombstones or monuments as may be desired guaranteeing to do the same satisfactorily, and at as low prices as possible for first class work. Specimens of work he exhibits are seldom equaled, and we bespeak for him a liberal patronage from our citizens.
The Midland Hotel, Fritz Sturm, Prop. The Midland Hotel is located cor of Franklin and Union Sts., and is the cheapest hotel in Middletown. The proprietor, Mr. Sturm, has had a large experience in the management of hotels in the West, and he comes prepared to give our citizens the benefit of his knowledge. His house has already become the favorite resort of our German population, and Mr. Sturm invites traveling Germans especially to call upon him. The best wines, liquors and cigars always on hand together with Geo. Ehret's Lager. An evening spent at The Midland Hotel will carry the guest, in fancy at least, back to Rhineland, “and that little German home across the sea,”
Dr. James A. Schultz, Veterinary Surgeon. In this department of our work we wish to call the attention of all horse owners and dealers to Dr. James A. Schultz, veterinary surgeon, who is located at Middletown. There are in the county many valuable and fine blooded horses, and they require from time to time care and treatment beyond the knowledge and skill of grooms, and to these Dr. Schultz offers his services. Dr. Schultz has been associated with Prof. Paul Smith, Prof. R. Thomas, and Prof. Robert Jennings, all eminent men in their calling. The doctor began practice in 1864, and located in Port Jervis he afterward went to the city of Binghamton, where he practiced with the most flattering success, he is now located in Middletown upon North St., in rear of Halstead Sweet's Hotel, and is prepared to take horses in his establishment for treatment. The doctor refers with pride to his for so many years, and is ready at any time to exhibit testimonials of his success. We are pleased to add our efforts to give to the horseman of the county a knowledge of the establishment of Dr. Schultz at Middletown, feeling assured that as soon as it is fully known the doctor is here, and has opened an Infirmary, he will receive an extensive patronage.
Geo. P. Dewsnap, Glove Manufacturer. Mr. Dewsnap's Factory is located at 41 North St., his business consists of the manufacture of buckskin, sheep and kid gloves, together with coin bags, in which latter branch Mr. Dewsnap has built up a flourishing trade, being constantly in receipt of orders from California and other Western States for these bags for storing and transporting coin. Now that specie resumption is a secured fact, bankers and merchants will find it to their interest to deal direct with Mr. Dewsnap for coin bags. Mr. Dewsnap has built up a fine glove trade in Orange County and through New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and is prepared to fill all orders promptly and at low prices. We advise dealers to give him a call.
Richardson & Wamsley, Fruit Fish & Vegetables.This firm is a late acquisition to the business community of Middletown, having lately succeeded Mr. Henry Tallman, so well known to the citizens of this place, having for years supplied them with good things to eat. There is connected with their market a good restaurant, where a good meal is supplied at a very reasonable expense. If the good old lady's idea be correct a one, viz: take a hungry man, and if he is good natured, fill him up, and you have an angel, what terms of praise will we apply to those persons who supply the “filling.” Whatever they be they may well be applied to this firm, for they can certainly supply you with almost everything in the line of “filling," for a hungry man. They deal extensively in fish, oysters, clams and vegtables in their season, together with fruit and berries, giving their customers choice of the best the market affords. They are located at 25 James St., Tallman's old stand.
