learned here that the Southern Railway

ton OF the large new shop buildings at
SPENCER. for an early completion OF the
same. 1T is understood that the firm
has decided to double the present force
Of employees and put in additional ma
chinery with which to prosecute the
work. Some idea Of the enorinity or
tho trafic at this point may be gathered
from the fact that sixty engines We're
turned out OF the Spencer round-house
IN one night this week, and that the
same night twenty-one freight trains left
the yards, besides about as many more
through fretghts and passenger trains.

TABLE DECORATION.
An Oriental Scheme From Which
Ideax May De Cleaned.

An oriental notion for an elaborate
scheme Of table decoration is a dainty
canopy Of flowers and greenery
stretched over the table, with, hanging
from it. tiny Japanese lanterns, each
Of different shape but none larger
than from two to four inches. In ap-
plc blossom or the almond flower this
canopy is said to be exceedingly ef-
fectiye. 1t is supported at the four
corners by slender pedeStals, from
which the roots of the tree are sup
posed to spring The pedestals are ar
ranged not quite at the table corners,
but something like ten inches away,
A dwarf .Japanesc cedar stands in the
middle, and a few tiny bambooS and
cocoa palms dot the table, with here
and there a spray thrown down OF ap-
pie blossom. The menus are written
on wee Japanese umbrellas, leaning
open. and both doilics and table nap
kins are Japanese, the latter made OF
the familiar embossed paper, the for
mcr painted With little characteristic
figures. Each finger bowl has few
Japanese expanding flowers dropped
into it, an amusement fer all the
guests, who can watch the pretty mar
vel of their growth.
Japanese paper flowers make an eX-
cellont substitute for the natural bios
som, or the canopy looks very. well
dcckcd with mimosa. In this case
chrvSanthpmulnS are arranged at the
corner pedcstals and III the center ti
