The heavy rains during the past month have
raised the water in the lake only fourteen
inches. There is from six inches to two feet of
snow around the lake and the rain fitering
through this, gives the water a peculiar snow
water taste, which will pass off in few days.
The water company has contracted for large
amount of twelve-inch ppe to be laid in Com
mercial street, to replace the six-inch pipe
which is not large enough to supply the large
number of manufactures located thereon. The
city can be divided into high and low service,
using the 24-inch main for the upper levels
and the old 20-inch main for the low service
Connection will be made from Portland,
through Preble and Center streets, to the new
Commercial street main. A large amount of
money will be expended this season within the
city limits in perfecting the city supply. This
company have shown much enterprise in thei-
efforts to give to our city the best and most
perfect system of water works in America,
and the officials assure us that in time they
will accomplish this much to be desired end

RICHMOND, March 16.
The stockholders of the proposed new bag
factory met last evening and organized. The
company is to be called the Southland Manu-
featuring Company The following officers
were chosen: T. J. Southland, President; c..
III. Southland, Secretary; j. NJ. Odiorne, Treas
urer; I. j. Southland, c. Fl. Southland, T. H.
Theobald, Levi Mustard, VIM. I. Hall, j. W.
SpauldIng and R. D. Patterson, Directors.
Work on the new building will be commenced
very soon, as the contract requires the building
and machinery to be ready for work by the
first of September. The building is to be of
brick and five stories high, with a capacity of
sixty looms, and probably will employ about
100 hands. The work will embrace all the
stages from the raw material to the finished
bag. Two small buildings will be erect ed for
picker and store rooms. We hope soon to see
other manufactures established here, for be-
sides Richmond's advantage of communica-
ton with the markets by rail and water being
fine, the town has voted to exempt from taxa
ton for ten years the buildings, machinery
and capital stock of any person or persons,
company or corporation who may establish
here manufacturing business for wholesale
trade only. 1t would seem as if an investiga
ton of the merits of this town as a manufac-
turing locality would be of advantage to capt.
talists about to embark in such business.

They forced open the door OF the store and

The heat was so intense that it nearly drove
