The Drug Store on Pennsylvania avenue, just above the bridge, which still bears the name of W. H. Holmes, has again changed hands and has become the property of our well-known citizen,
JAMES PRICHARD,
who represented this constituency in the last State Legislature. Mr. Prichard's long experience as a drug salesman and wide acquaint- ance among the people, together with his affable disposition, assures the success of the business in which he has engaged. Strangers in town will readily find him opposite the Central Hotel where everything in the drug line may be procured.
F. A. WINTER,
who has carried on a Music Store in Altoona for many years and is well known to Tyrone people, has opened up a new store in the same line on Pennsylvania avenue, opposite the Keystone Hotel. He handles several of the best
PIANOS,
including the Waldorf, Kranich and Bach and Jacobs Bros .. and ORGANS, that of H. Lehr attracting special attention, a 7 octave instrument of superior excellence in tone and finish of case. All other instruments of music may be bought of him, and book and sheet music of all kinds.
Out on Tenth street, near Woodland avenue,
C. W. SAUSSER
may be found, carrying on the business of
MARBLE CUTTER.
His extensive acquaintance as one who has grown up in this community gives him the confidence of the people and their patronage.

JOHN S. MORRISON,
Supplementary Chapter.
Some important matters pertaining to the business and social life of Tyrone remain to be stated. It will be seen that the people of Tyrone are making history faster than the scribe can record it.
We begin with a complete
BUSINESS DIRECTORY.
First in order, as furnishing the prime necessaries of life are the
GROCERS.
It is needless to repeat those already mentioned in Chap. VII.
Going up Pennsylvania avenue on the East side, we pass the Cash Grocery of T. N. MCFEATERS, a young man who came to Tyrone a stranger a little over three years ago, but who is now well known and well established here and bids fair to be a permanent and prosperous citizen. By diligence and honorable dealings he has gained the confidence of the people.
Just above Tenth street is the establishment of the STUDY GROCERY Co. Here as in the Dry Goods store adjoining, everything indicates good taste and a studied effort to please the public. The stock is large and well selected and the ser- vice could not be more agreeable to customers.
Above Twelfth street is the store of F. M. BELL. One of the pioneer citizens and a man whose character has stood above criticism through all the years, Major Bell has a large circle of friends, and he and his clerks, out of the abundance of a full and choice stock, minister acceptably to the wants of his patrons.
On the opposite side of the avenue, below Eleventh street, is the General Store of MINGLE BROTHERS.
On East Tenth street near the bridge, D. B. ETNIER keeps a good stock and is perfectly reliable in his dealings.
136
SUPPLEMENTARY CHAPTER.
On West Tenth street is the accommodating firm of A. A. SMITH & SON, farther on the HARRIS GROCERY Co. and past the overhead bridge, J. K. BOTTORF & Co., for all of which see advertising pages.
Just adjoining the last mentioned is the office of JOHN H. MILLER who as a Broker dispenses large deals in flour and cereals.
On East Tenth street, across the creek, is the Feed Store of LOWER BROS., who also carry staple groceries.
The above mentioned are in the Second and Fourth Wards.
In the First Ward, GODFREY FISHER, out on Washington avenue, supplies that important part of the town with pro- visions, saving valuable time to the housekeeper.
The Third Ward grocers are : GEORGE A. WALKER, who has for nearly nine years carried on the business and won to himself a good trade, by attention to business and courtesy of manner. His stand is on Pennsylvania avenue, west side, above Twelfth street.
ISAAC I. WHITE may be found on Fourteenth street at the corner of Washington avenue; and W. E. HOFFMAN on Logan avenue, near Fourteenth street, has everything in the grocery line.
C. M. WOLFE, "Golden Rule," Logan avenue and 11th street.
L. M. EYER, Milk Station, Logan avenue and 11th street.
In the Fifth Ward at Pennsylvania avenue and Fourteenth street, H. C. SPRANKLE has a Corner Grocery. He has also the qualities to make business go and will doubtless grow with the years as a business man.
The Sixth Ward supports three groceries. That of J. T. PLUMMER on Columbia avenue, corner of Sixteenth street, is a worthy competitor of the down town stores and the proprie- tor is worthy of the support which the people of that section accord to his enterprise.
FRANK GARDNER on Fifteenth street and Adams avenue, has a stock of both Groceries and Dry Goods, convenient of access to our uptown folks.
137
SUPPLEMENTARY CHAPTER.
MRS. A. WARD has a grocery, recently started, on Col- umbia avenue and Seventeenth street.
Last, but not LOWEST, is the large store of J. C. GOHEEN & BROTHER, mentioned in Chap. IV.
BAKERS.
W. E. HOFFMAN furnishes Bread, Cakes, &c., to a large portion of Tyrone's population and keeps Ice Cream in season.
J. M. KIENZLE with his brother George began to serve the people of Tyrone in the capacity of baker twenty years ago. For the last eight years he has conducted the business by himself at his stand, a few doors above the post office in his large building. The bread sent out from his store has a well deserved reputation in other towns as well as at home. He gives good, honest value to those who deal with him. A full stock of groceries may be found here also.
Of GEORGE KIENZLE, one square above, we might repeat what we said of his brother. He sells good bread and his store draws a good trade.
RESTAURANTS.
FRED. H. BOECKING in the Boecking building, West Tenth street, serves meals at all hours.
JERRY HAY has two stands, the principal one on West Tenth street, above Templeton's, the other just by the river bridge.
G. W. WHITSON'S American Restaurant is at 14 West Tenth street.
