Thls news will be in the nature of a

The capitalist back of the enter

wellington for several months. and
has been working quietly for a pur-
pose, The lots were purchased of
the Long Bell Lumber Co. the 18th

whenever cold storage plant has been
proposed for Wellington, some mys.

III remained for Mr.. Armstrong of
Georgia to fully recognize the impor-
tance OF wellington as a produce

That the ice plant will be in operation
as soon as a building can be erected
ard workmen can Pat the machine-y

date result was that a few weeks
later he returned to Wellington and
bought the three lots near Carter &
Noodles elevator. Mr.. Charleswo,th
refused to answer a question at that
time as TO what she lets would be used
for. The reason is apparent: he did
not want anyone else to Jump in
ahead Of him.
Yesterday morning a fiat car loaded
with pipes, pumps, boiler, ETC.,
arrived in Wellington and was set ont
on Caster & Noodles leased tracks.
This morning Mr.. CharleswortA
showed up at the car with l. II. Banks
and began unloading it. There is
more material to follow. Mr. Charles
worth says the building for the ice
plant will be erected at C0ce. 1t will
be'a frame structure, 5GS5O feet, and
will be located on the alley between
g street and Washington avenue.
The dwelling on the lots will not be
moved at present.
1t will take three months TO set the
plant Up and get ii in operation. Mr.
Cbarlesworth viii have charge of the
work. He is an experienced ice plant
operator, and expects to manage the
plant and superintend the business
here for Mr.. Armstrong. The plant
will manufacture ice by the Absorb
tiOn process. which is somewhat dh-
ferent from the condenslBg or ''tanS"
process. Mr.. Charleswosth explained
the absorption process IN detail this
mOrning. but is was all Greek to Us.
We understood enough Df it 10 knsw
that 1be ice is frozen 10 full view
instead of 10 llnkS, in chunks l1kl6
feet and fifteen or eighteen inches 10
thickness. Or it can he frozen in
cakes twice those dimensions. Am.
monia and vapsr play important parts
in the process. The capacity Of the
plant will be ssn tons per day, ard
will give employment to five or six
persons.
The plant originally cost $40 0e0 but
would cost 70 per cent mole II pur-
chased since the raise in the p;ice o,
iron. 1t was shipped here from JACK
SOD, Tenu. The engines, pipes, etc,
weighs nineteen tons. There are four

different sizes.
1t is the intention to build an ice
house this fall as soon as the factory

A horse owned by Liveryman Nealis
was affected by the blind staggers yes
terday afternoon and created consider
able excitement in the vicinity of
Luzerne street and Edwards court. TWO
employees of the Long Distance Tele-
phone company were driving to Pitts
ton when the animal was affected.
After breaking away from the wagon
to which it was attached the horse
ran into the fence in front of Benjamin
Morgans' residence in Edwards court
and broke 1t down and afterwards went
through the fence in front of Evan ID.
Jones house and climbed onto the
steps leading up to the porch. From
there the animal dashed upon the porch
of Jenkin Lewis residence and plunged
through large window in the front
Of the house.
Considerable damage was done to the
furniture in the house and when .he
horse was driven out it broke down
the fence in the front yard, damaged
the steps and fell exhausted. Dr. Sut-
ton was called and bled the horse and
the animal was afterwards led away.
