Iron Gate.
From the Review.

At last work upon the depot has begun. The
builing will be divided into two apartments, one
for freight purposes and the other for passenger
accommodations. Dissatisfaction will undoubt-
eddy prevail, as the structure will most assured
ly prove too small, even from the start This
will of course necessitate enlargement and cause
expenses that might have been avoided.
There was good attendance at the meeting
held at IRON Gate by the Z NJ G. A. on last Sun
day. 1t is proposed to organize Sunday Schoo1
next Sunday. Mr.. Luster has, as he merits, the
thanks Of the people for kindly rendering the
use of his building for these meetings for the
present.
The rolling mill at the Gate is now running
night and day and doing good work. A force of
about 40 men are now employed and about 20
more are expected to arrive by Saturdays trains.
Nh. J. E. Carper has greatly improved his
property by having it enclosed with Jordan and
Williams patent fence. Others will follow the
example OF Mr.. Carper. The fence is good one.
The W est Iron Gate land company has placed
portion OF its lots on the market, several hav-
ing been disposed of lately at good figures.
Good order prevails at the 'tGate,'' only two

offences since the new council took hold.
