Birds Eye View OF Buffalo.

In trip to Buffalo we noticed that
the great work is going steadily forward,
and q regular army of laborers are en-
ploved. We watched the laborers from
the top of the big mill as they lined up
to the office for their pay, and it had the
appearance of little army lined up for
inspection.
The roof Of the great building is nearly
finished and the greater portion of it
already covered with paper, tar and
gravel covering. A small place Is still
left open for the working OF the hoisnnS
derricks. The fire proof partitions are
being put in on the third and fourth
floors and the tunnels for heat and cleo
tric wires are being covered over, and
one would not imagine while walking
over the smooth cement floor that there
were hundreds of yards OF tunnels under
his feet.
The power hou2e is up to the third
floor and tile tall, upright boilers are In
place. The ground floor OF this building
is also labyrinth of tunnels and passage
ways. in which one could easily loose his
way when all are covered over and con-
cealed by the cement floor.
We noticed Just in front OF the big
mill a mammoth ell, weighing 3d. wv
pounds, which is to be placed In the hrs'
