Net & Irvine Factory Burned.

"Wednesday morning, about 1
O'Clock, the Elizabeth City Me-
& Irvine Factory was totally de
stroyed by fire, with abou'
5000 worth OF manufactured
stock On hand. The fire, it is
thought, was caused by thawing
the steam pipes. 1t was We y
cold night, and the fireman who
went to the mill to get steam
for the days work, had to thaw
out some pipes with a torch, q
spark from which, no doubt
caused the dreadful conaagra
ton. The factory has been in
active operation, under the man
agement of Mr.. S. S. Fowler
for a number Of years, and gave
employment to about fifty peo>
pie, principally females. 1t COS,
about $4,000 and was insured
for $4,000. Its burning is a
great loss to our city.

Not many of our readers are
aware that in the old world, as
it is sometimes called, many
people have their homes beneath
the surface or the earth. Yet it
is true that thousands thus live
in the mines and never see the
light of day, because they never
come up from their subterranean
homes. The "City of the Salt
Mines" located at Wielieska,
Calico, is several hundred feet
below the surface. 1t is a wonder
full little city. 1t has population
OF 900 men, women and chill
dren very many of whom have
never seen the SUI, moon and
stars, nor II surface of the
earth. They are content with
their condition, and with their
homes.
