Of American Life Insurance-the Security Life Insurance Com
pany of New York. A politician would say, the Security is
the peoples choice. 1t has certainly strong popular endorse
meut. By the Atlantic, the Mississippi, and the Pacific, the
voice of thousands speak it fair. The Security attained the
greatest increase of annual business in 1870 over 1863 Of an
the life companies Of the United States. When this II cOnSid-
cred In connection with the past progress Of the office, its
future rank on the Ifs.ron i a subject of no difficult conjecture.

portion, not suddenly projected forward It has passed ahead
Of other companies by the due operation and momentum Of its

The DrldgepOrt Glass Works.

~-@sNsAAssNNt
The Labelle Glass Works are located
10 the south end Of Bridgeport, on the
Q. d T. railroad In close proximity TO the
river, and Immediately at the base of the
high hills overlooking the Ohio at this
point. The enterprise was projected by
q Joint Stock Company, Of which the
following gentlemen are the Board oI
Directors: A. H. BaggS, President; W.
d. Brinton, Secretary and Treasurer; z.
Z. Rhodes, W. W. Holloway, Roy Combs,
TheO. Schultz and Jacob thinner.
Messrs. Baggs, Brinton, Holloway and
Rhodes, are constituted an Executive
Committee OF the Board, especially charg.
ed with the construction Of the buildings
and tho business management Of the
company. The buildings now being con.
structed were designed by the architect,
Charles F. Hamilton, Of Wheeling, and,
although Il IS the first attempt to super.
wise building so immense In proportions
and 30 minute In detail, he has succeeded
In putting the fright thing In the right
place" and In introducing all the modern
improvements In architectural strength.
beauty and durability. The stone work
by Smith u Seabright, the carpenter work
by Thomas Clark, and the brick work by
Armstrong s. Co., are models OF mechan-
ism In their respective departments. The
main building is 70 feet square, built Of
brick, on iootings Of stone 8 feet thick.
The foundation walls are 2 feet, and the
superstruCture IS inches In thickness. The
cupOla Is % feet square, with feet of
clear ventilation. This building Is cover.
ed by a standing tin roof, self.supporting
by means OF iron truss rods. The pack.
ing house and rear buildings are to be 100
by so feet, two stories high. The straw
house Is 40 feet square and the mixing
room on the north end Of the main build
ing 40 by 25, making a continuous front
on the river Of $50 feet.
The stack is 90 feet In diameter at the
base and 0 feet at the top. 1t contains
ten pots so inches high, A inches broad
and 90 inches deep. These pots are be.
lieved to be the largest west Of the ALLIE
ghenies Those works being located In
The immediate vicinity Of rich coal beds,
will receive coal into the furnace directly
from the mine at an average total cost Of
about 81 cents per bushel, less cost than
coal can DO had at any other Glass Works.
They possess another great advantage in
having one Of their fronts adjacent to the
track Of the P. s G. road, saving thereby
upon every car load of material furnished,
or ware shipped, ten dollars per car.
The company have neither spared labor
or expense in making these works the
most complete Of their kind Of any in the
West. They have adopted all the first
class improvements for glass manutactur.
ing, they have large and commodious
buildings, they have magnificent site,
and we see no cause why success should
not crown their enterprise. The works
will employ 1875 men, and will be ready
for business about the 10Th proximo.

TO have been widespread belief among

will certainly be repealed. Thus far the
amount Of claims filed is about $50, ,000,-

(From the Belmont Chronlcle)

MIR. Allen was born in Fayette county,
Pennsylvania, and was 70 years Of age at
the time of his death. He removed to
this State in 1923, and to Bridgeport In
1928, where he engaged extensively in the
dry goods and commission business. He
was elected by the Wings, Auditor Of Bel.
mont county in 1S4S and reelected in
1850. He was chosen State Senator in
1853 and served one term, at the expira.
tion oi which'time he retired to private
lie, Mr.. Allen was thoroughly imbued
with the spirit Of progress, and his mind
was continually occupied with questions
Of public interest and improvement. In
1886 he conceived q scheme which was
to connect the Tuscarawas Valley with
the Ohio River Valley by rail and was
made President Of the Saltwater Naviga-
tion and Railroad Company, but owing to
the financial crash oi '3S his hopes were
never realized. Mr.. Allen was held high
in the estimation oil the community as be-
ing "above reproach," scrupulously honest
and conscientious,
