fore stated in the GAZETTE the new
glass factory ut West End has been
completed and ii IS expected that ope-
ratious will soon be begun there. In
speaking ofthe owners of the factory
the Rovcrstord, Pa, Trjdgn@ says;
Most of the members of the glass com
ranv formed here to operate IL plant at
Alexandria. Va, and their families
have departed for their new field of Ia
Dor. 1t is with deep regret we part
with these gentlemen, who are com
posed of the cream of the trade. We
DO not intend to individuate them in
relation to their merits. Andrew Chris
~, the oldest member Of the firm, is a
man of enterprise and thrift, and one
who believes in spending money where
ii is earned. Henry Schnell Is an &C
tive though quiet worker. He is very
popular here, and will be missed by a
large following of personal friends,
among whom he was general favor
tie. Always considered safe man, he
has occupied the highest positions in
the Glassbowers' Union, of which he
is the trusted president. His life here
was such as TO leave a kind remem-
brance in years to come, Joe Ramsey
and Edward Reeve are also well-knowu
characters, with popularity credita'
bic 10 estimate, and so We could cou
tinue through the list. Cheerfully dc
we recommend them to the people o
Alexandria as worthy all the support
possible for them to receive. The.
