WorIdof Labor. :

The industries of this section at
present are very quiet, as the majority
of all manufacturing concerns have
closed down, for their usual inventory
over July first, while others have clos
ed down for repairs and regular sum-
mer STOP such as the glass factories.
1t is thought by many that several of
these mills and factories will soon re-
sumo.
The fact of the starting up of the
lower Benwood mill steel plant to-
morrow is glad news to the many en-
ployes. and shows that this plant is in
good shape
The La Belle iron works is still idle,
but has a large force Of men busily
engaged, giving this plant a general
overhauling and especially the machin-
cry, of which some has not been re-
paired for five years. All of the en-
gines are being repaired, and new met
al is being placed under the bearings
1t is not known when this repair work
will be completed, but 1t will take
some time, as the work is being done
in very thorough way, and when
completed will be in fine condition.
The tin mills are still idle, while stock
is being taken.

1t was thought that the blasting out
of the salamander at the Belmont blast

with increasing interest 10 the climax Of
the play. which occurs on Christmas
morning in Harum's house, vixen the
episode OF Widow cullom's mortgage is
taken up and disposed Of
1t is at this point that Mary Blake for
the first time discovers that she has made
great mistake in her Judgment of Da-
vid Harum s character, under whose grun
exterior pulsates a warm and sunny
heart.
1t is in this same act that it is shown
that John Lennox's speculations in pork
which have been carried through by
Harum, have turned sout successfully,
and that the young man rs now in such a
financial condition as to feel able to sup
port a wife; and the curtain falls as the
leading people in the piece are sitting
down to their old fashioned Christmas
dinner in David Harum's old fashioned
parlor.
The earlier happenings of the play are
almost entirely laughable. The horse
trade in the first act, in which David
Harum sells the deacon a horse that is
about the balkiest animal on record, for
$3.50, is the consummation of all that is
funny, even although the fact is not
brought out until the end of the second
act
This act is laid in David Harum's pri-
vate office. at the back of which there is
a large window. When the curtain rises,
the little country town, with its quiet,
dusty streets, may be seen through this
window. Suddenly a thunder storm
comes up. and in the midst of it the
crafty old deacon is revealed outside. He
is standing up in his buggy, madly
thrashing his new horse, which has
baked and will not bulge an inch.
4 Funny Climax.
All this time the rain is pouring in tor
rents, and as the old deacon plies his
whip so energeticallyait requires no fur
