GOING OVER THE ROUTE. A. J. Easmau Sketch of His Career. How His Buisineas Has Grown from a Small Beginning. If it be true that he Is a benefactor who makes two blades of grai=8 grow where but one has grown before, thpn A. J Eisrna'-, our liveryman, should lomein for a goodly share or credit for the up- bulging of our beautiful village and il.t business Interests. Ills career In our midst covers a period of about twelve years, and dm lug tba.1 (iine he has jumped from a baiboi'e chali to a \1 inded proprietor,\ furnishing meanwhile u wholesome olj-ol lesson for young men who inlander their sub- stance on cigarettes, soft dilnln and red ni'ckllcs and then wonder why they dou'l \ get alnng.\ O.imlug to Margaretvllle from Luck r- wat-k, his native place, In lfclliO, Mr Kts- umu purchased the barbcriug bu: mess ol A. L. Murray, then conducted ii the stori- now occupied by Stewart, tho jeweler, which he removed to the basement ol tbeAckeily House. Two years Liter he begun to stir his lather and abk If the maor hurt In a shop fitted up In the Leof building, where ho cut ball' round 01 square lu tho back for four years, when he set up bis tonsorlal gods In the an- nex to Dickson's big department store adjoining the Ackerly botaulcal gardens. At tbl* place ho devoted live years lo the ploasunt occupation of stowing dimes away iu the tin box with the jip.iiijjed exterior, From there he returned to bis Hist love at the Ackerly, where In Janu- ary of this year ho sold the business to Rood M. Delamctcr, the present proprie- tor. When Mr. Eaeman came to town he brought wi.h him a Lorso wii,h a pedi- gree that was all appetite. The horse was a gilt from Mr. Ewman's father, who undoubtedly know how much the auinial could cat, One day tho old chair turned out seven haircuts In a low, una In u spirit of wild speculation Easmau rushed out and buugnt another horse at a \sale aud the out bag doubled its trips to the feed store. One day when the wind was chut lug Itself out of the north v. cat and every- thing about tho shop was as blue as a chief engineer's map, Chailoy Hewitt, who kept two lioi'bes for liho, said ; \ Say, Andy, you've got two horses htaiidlug thoro eating their heads off. Why not put 'oiu with my two and wo 1 !! start a big livery I\ Easmau did it, Aud Mrs. Baojcw's barn SQQU became hea lepiarters for nobby rigs and all that was latest ami best I i hosstalk. Tho buslnoss grow from tlio first, ami soon after slarllug three move horses were added to the curriculum. In October, IbiW, Mr. Hewitt hud made enough mouey to embark lu tho hotel business, ro bo wiMi Irew from tlio firm and began to out off coupons lu the Com- mercial House In Arkvllle, and probably by this tlmo ho's got money burled ail ovor up thoro, Since his withdrawal Mr. Eismuu Itaa alone conducted the business, which from a small beginning has grown to largo proportions. Last year twenty horses found plenty to dp between feed- ing times, and this summer fifteen hiiv^ been worked. In 1890 tho present sta- bles on Orchard street woro occupied. In addition to his livery business, Mr. Easmau hauls the express matter and light freight from Arkvllle and furnishes employment the year around for from three to live men. In March of this year ho began the erection of his handsome throe-story block, which, with tho one adjoining, hue added a great Improvement to Main street, It Is fitted with ull modern iui provomouta and uotttod with hot air j and While the upper stories afford a co»y homo for Mr. aud Mrs- EUBIUIU.1, the ground floor provides a genteel and up- to-date billiard, and peul room, where at sifliill aost gentlemen may while away mi hour wlthoul, golfing freckles on their moral oharaelcr, aud where the iirouiu of choice imported and domestic cigars can be enjoyed at OalOo.
