The March of Empire Southwark.

The Baltimore Manufacturers Record,
always alive TO the development Of the
industrial resources Of the Southern
Sites, and always ready TO chronicle
their progress, recites the history OF
an extensive manufacturing enterprise
now in actual course of development
by English capital in the great coal and
iron region OF this section. 1t says:
several years ago number OF the
foremost iron and steel makers of
Great Britain, representing millions OF
dollars OF capital, had their attention
called 10 the wonderful combination OF
mineral wealth coking coal, high
grade iron ores of many kinds, includ-
ing Bessemer oars and other advan-
tagcs OF the country around Cumber-
land Gap, Tenn, dividing point in
the mountain range separating Vir-
gInia, Kentucky and Tennessee. They
sent out an expert and his report was
SO favorable that they could scarcely
believe it, and others were sent and
they more than confirmed what the
first had said. Very quietly then these
practical iron and steel makers went 70
work. They purchased thousands of
ting of 5000 foot tunnel through the
mountains, 10 open way OF commune
cation for several railroads; they COM
menoed building railroads, prepared to
lay out town, etc. These things
they have been doing so quietly that
but few know of this great enterprise
probably the most extensive indus
trial undertaking of its character ever
organized. They have already spent
$4,000, 600 in their work at Cumber-
land Gap, or rather at Middlesbor-
ough, which is the name OF the new
town, and have now thrown it open TO
the public. The magnitude OF what
has been accomplished may be better
understood from a few facts. Upon
the preliminary work OF buying the
property, building a tunnel, railroads,
etc, they have as already said spent
$4,000, 600, but that is only the begin
ming. They have made contracts for
not less than four furnaces, rolling
mills and steel works to cost s., 0J0,-
600: for opening coal mines involving
cost of $4,000, a 500, 900 tannery,
seven saw mills in full operation TO
supply lumber for building purposes
in the town. four brick yards with
over 100000, invested machine
shops, planning mills, and number
OF other enterprises representing a
capital OF about 81 600 000,n
This is only one Of numerous cases
but perhaps the most considerable en-
terprise by a single corporation. 1t is
one OF the numerous revelations OF
the extraordinary resources of this re-
marNuble section whose vast hidden
wealth was so long either unknown or
out of tie reach Of cap TIL. IL has
come now most prominently into pub
lie notice. and it viii daily attract
more and more attention.
The seat Of industrial empire on this
continent i. yet to be south OF the Po-
tomac and OF the Chic Thi5 is mani
fest destDy. because every clement Of
wealth EXISTS here in greater abund-
ance and in closer juX .aposition than
can be predicted OF any other region.
The capital and the labor TO develop
them alone are wanting. They will be
forthcoming 10 meet every demand

Helpful Hints

even better than the hot water rubber

and is more silly adjusted to different

For thirst, it is said that a small

which partially atone1 for fractured

through the hole i'm the roof straight
into my eyes. Dragged my bed all over
the floor, but the sun chased me. Went
down stairs and had breakfast OF crack

Two more of Mrs. Benson's friends
have come. One OF them has red hair
and the other plays the piano. What

I've locked the piano with nail
while nobody was looking, but I'm
afraid they'll pry it open.
Sam suggested that we go out and
see the waterfall. We found an aged
rustic who agreed to show us the fill
for 81 apiece. Sam had left his pock-
etbook at home and his credit appeared
to be bad paid for the scenery and
told the rustic to lead on.
''lt's all right" said he. "you can see
II from where you be. It's behind that
board fence"
Subsequent investigation revealed the
fact that the rustic owned the waterfall.
He had built dam across the brook
and the fall couldn't tumble unless he
said so. When he pulled the string il
opened gate on top OF a rock and part
Of the brook ran out and trickled down.

rustic, but it's the only waterfall with
