Improvement at the Alleg
Bank

The Allegheny Bank has recently fit
ted up it's interior rooms with handsome
floors of carpet, which greatly improve
their appearance and add to their COM
fort. The noise of footsteps is now
hushed, and the movements of those
within are in harmony with the smooth
ly working business methods of the con
Germ. A new rolier-top desk has also
been added to the private office, before
which Cashier Page presides with be-
coming ease and dignity. The bank

Clifton Forge to be Headquarters


We have been informed that it is the
purpose of the authorities of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad to make Clifton
Forge the starting point for trains over
the Warm Springs Valley branch of the
road, in the near future The reasons
for this seems to us quite plain. In the
first place the road has its round house
and repair shops at this place, and these
are as essential to this branch as they are
to the end of division. Another reason
would seem to be to have as few changes
for passengers as possible. Persons com
ing or going over the James river branch
will thus be enabled to go through with
only one change of cars instead Of two,
as at present.

A Landscape Gardner for Gladys
Inn

The Gladys Inn is soon to have a
landscape gardener, who is to take
charge of and beautify the grounds
around that hosiery. The location of
the Gladys affords a fine opportunity
for the display artistic taste in the i'm
provem7nts OF the lawns. The sloping
grounds are to be terraced down to
Bridge street, and the bank which OBJ
structs the view from the railroad will
be removed. When this is done the
Gladys will present very different APP
pearance, and the public will then begin
to appreciate the really beautiful loca-
ton which it occupies.

we clip the following
The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company
Is doing heavy business, the biggest business
III It's history. The earnings for August were
$8s600 against sT28000 for the same period last
year; net earnings FOR August were $251, 500
against $I5o3 net ei ni1a5e IN AUGUST af last
wear. The new locomotives added TIC the equlss
fneut are paid for out OF the earnings and are
not charged up TO construction company. The
old tunnels are being arcled and charged to ex-
/ penses, too.
The company is taking care of the great rush
of traffic as well as it can. An order for ten
new locomotives was recently placed at schen-
ee0ady n. Y, and the Richmond Locomotive
Works have number OF engines IN course OF
construction for the Chesapeake and Ohio.
The road Is in very good shape, and is being
constantly improved, twenty-five locomotives
being kept at work ballasting, filing bitches,
| &c.
Mr.. Ingalls, said he thought this going to
be the most prosperous year we have ever had.
| business was on healthy boom. The Dig crops
here and the poor crops abroad caused this
great business activity and advance in prices.
All wealth comes out OF the ground, and tn the
fact that the farmers are making money CnlS
