NEW INDUSTRIES.
Many Towns Alive and Progressive. While
Shenandoah sleeps.

While her sister towns in the region are
striking out and providing means for the
employment Of their surplus labor, Shouan-
doah drags along under a deplorable and
apparently, immoyable lethargy. With
ample facilities and still greater margin
of labor suitable for the purpose within her
limits and easy reach, the town cannot
boast Of home industry worthy Of the
name, nor is there anything in sight to indi-
cate that the citizens are trying TO secure
even one. On. the other hand, much smaller
and less preteutous towns are entering the
manufacturing sphere. These reflections are
brought about by the announcement that Mt
Carmel to-day started an overall factory with
fifty machines Friokvillo started shirt
factory few days ago with the same number
of machines. Within very short time Ash
land will reopen its old silk mill as u shirt
factory, starting with ninety machines
which are now being placed. These facts are
sufficient 10 cause the citizens Of Shenandoah
to sing DE / wake, or am ! dreaming ?"
and If they don't soon wind up their alarm
clocks they will be in danger Of drifting into
a perpetual slumber.

Welsh Brothers circus-better this season
than ever before, good as it has been in the
past-is playing to crowded tents, notwith-
standing the cool weather The attractions
are certainly great. the japanese circus
alone being worth the price of admission
asked for the entire show. The show people
live in a special car and eat their meals in a
large tent in rear OF the main exhibition
tent, and they live as comfortably as though
in their own homes. They have the latest
style cooking utensils, chef at the head Of
the culinary department, and the bill of fare
is the best. In fact. everything about the
show is frst-class, for Welsh Brothers won't
have it any other way.-Daily New Era,
