here Thursday afternoon, for the purpose
of considering the engagement of an
evangelist to conduct revival work
throughout the county. A plan of CO.

| The two new boilers and engine, which
are double the capacity of the old ones,
have been installed in the South mill OF
the Chandler Co., and we're tested Satur-
day. The mill starts up again this week.
The work has been very expeditiously and
we'll done, and the repairs that remain to
be completed can be done while the ma
chinery is running. The engine and boiler
house has been enlarged a width of ten
feet in the rear, and the somkestack moved
few feet. The new engine was set three
feet higher than the other, upon a very
solidly laid bed, and fine cement floor
will be laid in the boiler-room. A heavy
planer and hatcher will be added to the
plant. Pipe is being laid to the river for a
new sewerage system. There are about
100 men employed in both mills, and there
is every evidence of prosperity about the
works.
