1t was stated yesterday by one well
informed OF future plans in Industrial
circles that the Cement Solvay COM
pany will have erected on the River
side grounds at Benwood one hundred
and twenty or perhaps one hundred
and forty more coke ovens just as soon
as the extensive additions that have
been planned by the National Tube
company are completed. This coke
company which controls many large
plants in various sections of the coun-
try, has now located at Benwood one
hundred and twenty-one ovens, sixty
of which In two sections are just being
finished and tested.
1t is said that the company has de-
cided to double their capacity here be-
cause the National Tube Company's
proposed Improvements, especially the
blast furnace and open-hearth steel
plant will serve TO increase the de-
mand for coke. 1t is now mere conjec-
ture as to what part of the Riverside
grounds may be- selected as the site
for the new plant. However, it is
thought that it will be built in Upper
Benwood, or at point out Bogg's
run
The new blast furnace and open
hearth steel plant, upon which it is
assuringly stated that large force of
workmen are now engaged in the vi
cinity Of Bogg's run, Will require largo
quantities of coke. If the ovens are
put up out the run, it will, of course,
be necessary to construct a short rail-
road for the purpose of hauling the
product to the various plants. Such
an increase in the capacity OF the pres
ent plant as reported contemplated
would certainly call for quite a large
additional force of employees.

A DOG WITH 4 SALARY.
ne Is Regularly Employed as street
 Advertising Agent.

One of the familiar sights about the business section and one attracting much admiring attention is hand- some black, curly dog, which walks along with sedate dignity, wearing a nat on his head, spectacles on his nose. 2 pipe firmly clenched between his teeth, and bearing a large advertising sign on his back. This canine adver- Using agent, who attends to his busi- ness With a diligence, perseverance and deeorum which many of his human rivals might do worse than initiate, is named Chester, and is the property of Ernest Jones, who usually accompanies him and who has trained him to the work. Chester is about five years of age, and is partly Newfoundland, part iy Gordon setter. He has the long, in- telligent face of the setter, with almost human soft brown eyes, and the black, curly coat of the Newfoundland, the white an his breast being the only white bout him. He is quite accom- plished, though his training dates but 8 little before Christmas He can open doors, goes obediently and intelligently on errands. can climb ladder, jump through hoops, and play leapfrog like a boy just out of school. He understands the sign language, and will obey a command communicated to him by his masters fingers without a spoken word. He is not only docile, but ex- eeedingly affectionate, and is very po- lite But he is not without spirit, as ne showed one day when mischievous neWsboy tried to take away his pipe. and succeeded in knocking it out of his mouth. He sprang upon the scared urchin and protested so vigorously and foretbly against interference that 1t took policeman to rescue his tormen- tor from him, the sympathy of all the hystanders being with the animal. He has a deep sense of the proprieties, and will not go out of doors without his hat. He has cause for his dignifed pride and evident self-respect, for he earns regular salary. Now he has a companion in younger Newfound- land. who is also learning the adver- Using business. This is a handsome dog. about IS months old, named Gro- yer Cleveland. He is being broken to hat and speetaeles. but does not take to them very kindly as yet, while Ches, ter rather resents the loan of his old hat, which he is compelled to make the newcomer. The pair made a striking team of workers in their novel y0ca- tion-B2 21timore American.

The whole journey from the bottom to the top will ntressitate four changes Of elevators, and will take about six minutes. while the elevators will have carrying capacity of 10000 an nour. The estimated cost Of this tower. which will be built of steel, is sSo0,0o0. or about twice as much as that of the Eiffel tower.

Russian Dinners,

The etiquette of a Russian dinner is decidedly formal When the guests are seated, the host and hostess Of the feast remain standing. it being their pleasure to attend upon the company and to see that the servants do their duty. Nothing can escape their obe servation; the plate Of no guest re- mains empty for moment, nor is a wine glass ever without contents. French wines are mostly drunk at Russian dinners. Madeira is also a favorite, and bottle of port is always served to an English guest At her own time the hostess gives the signal. and all rise from the table.
