The improved passenger service on the
Central has encouraged the settlement OF
towns along it, lines, and from these CEN
tiers of population there is spreading
throughout the adjacent country desire
for better homes and other things tbat
make people enjoy life.
One of the most noticeable Innovations
is the handsome park ings" which are
being laid out at every station. The grounds
around the depot station hous have been
enclosed with neas wire fences, and laid
off in flower beds and lakelets. At some
stations the handsome station hous IS and

Travellers from other states, seeing
a neat and attractive settlement,
are inclined to stop over and see
what inducements the country offers tor
investment or immigrants. but where
toe surroundings are not only not
attractive, but really repulsive, they
form poor opinion OF the country and the
people. Mr. Gebbett, with his new station,
houses and handsome perkings, has inaugu-

felt for miles beyond the Central railroads

day morning from Port Royal, and re.
manned aboard the tug for the balance of

looking out, he saw the Odell in a blaze.
He steamed over to her. and pulled her out
into the stream from the other vessels, and
the tugs pumps soon extinguished the
flames, which were under considerable head

The FIRE was not quenched, however, be-
fore the cabin was entirely burned, as well
as the new trunks. The ceiling and the
decks were badly burned ana charred.
The extent of the damage was consider

The DUPONT powder works were estab
lished In 1902 by Eleuthere Irenee Du-
Pont, grandfather Of the present mana
gers The plant Is the largest in the
United Safes and has capacity OF more
than 40, 200 pounds OF powder daV.
The plant contains eighty buildings In
an area OF nearly two square miles, and
in this district everything pertaining to
the manufacture Of powder Is done The
firm controls two-thirds OF all the powder
made in the United States and commands
the markets of the country Eugene,
Henry A. and Willie Dupont are now the
heads of the corporation.
This company has supplied powder for
every warfare ia half century General
Dupont furnished all the powder used
by the Union forces in the civil war. The
credit of the country was at its lowest
ebb, but he maintained his faith in the
cause and trusted in the honesty OF the
government to pay his claims. President
Lincoln expressed his gratitude for the
patriotic service thus rendered.
The homes of the present generation
Of DuPonts are along the Brandy wine,
near the powder yards The members of
the corporation require their men to take
no risk that they themselves will not
take.
The family have always been most
liberal In providing for those whom accl-
dent has deprived of husbands,
brothers or parents. The psnsion rolls
are large, but the outlay, IS conscien-
tiously paid.
The expense of burying the dead OF
yesterdays disaster. the medical attend

disaster made postponement nee ssary.
