The Chadwick Copying Book Co.,
of this city, will remove their plant to
Springfield, Mass, this Spring. This
move is made because of superior facili-
ties, the paper used by the company being
made there, and frieghts, &c. can be
saved. The company employs ten girls
and five men in their bindery, aud the
pay roll is about $4,000 per year. 1t is

qer) exhibited the piano to number OF
callers one evening last week. Its finish
inside in all its parts, is perfect, just as
much so as though it were intended to be
Ia full sight, at all times. The workman
ship OF the instrument is tirst-class and the
quality OF tone unexcelled. All who saw
and ard the instrument were delighted
and surprised. Mr.. Robertson will be glad
to show the instrument to any who desire
to examine 1t.
Chief Van Solver, In his report TO
Council one year ago, called the attention
OF that honorable body to the unsafe con-
dition OF the chimneys throughout the
city. One would be surprised to see just
how many chimneys there are that need
the assistance OF a mason to make them
safe. That there are no more fires from
this cause Is more from luck than good
management. 1t Is time that this matter
received the attention OF some one OF
authority. A costly fire from the above
cause will stir up those who own proper
ty, II nothing else does, but 1t will be late
then-too late for action. Property holders
themselves ought not to wait until they
are compelled 10 do thing when its ne.
glect jeopordlzes, not only their own, but
their neighbours property.
