THE HANNA FACTORY.
Preparations for New Building Mo wing
on Rapidly.

About five hundred loads of dirt
have already been moved from the
site of the new Hanna Manufacturing
Compauy's building on South First
street. This represents about half of
what must be taken off to bring the
site down to level with the street.
Some more dirt will also have to be
removed to make room for the base
ment in which the furnace and power
plant will be located. Being on an
elevation the ground is so dry that
the workmen find it necessary to
keep a stream of water playing on the
dirt all the time to make it consistent
enough to dig. Big piles of brick are
being delivered in preparation for the
big building that will be pushed with
all possible speed to completion.

Sunday was a day long to be re-
membered by the Baptist church in
this city. At the close of the morn
ing service the deed of mortgage,
which had been a burden for so many
years, was reduced to ashes. The
original amount of the mortgage was
only 81 500 but including interest 81,
600 was paid during the last year and
a half. The final payment was made
some time ago but the church waited
to celebrate their release from debt
until the church had been repaired.
During the last three weeks it was
thoroughly renovated and re-carpet-
ed throughout and now presents a
very neat and attractive appearance,
and the best part of it is the money
for these improvements has all been
raised. Rev. Duboc is popular with
his congregation and to his personal
efforts is due much credit for the
good financial condition of the
church. In addition to his ability as
a pastor, he is an indefatigable
worker.
