Prize Fiaht Next Sunday.

At the gospel meeting in the Grand
Opera House yesterday afternoon, the
Rev. Robert Elwood continued his
series of addresses on "Phe Prodigal
SON" ....

a prize fight at the gospel meeting next

.sembling such a thing viii take place.
1t is thought that this win be the sub
iect of a descriptive address to be de-
livered by Mr.. ElwoOd as one OF his

$4,000 CONTRACT
COMPLETED BY h. & /, CO.
Twelve Indestructible Mail
Cars Built for the N. &
w. Railroad

At the yards of the Harlan & Hol-
lingsworth Company contract for
twelve mail cars for the Norfolk &
Western railroad is about completed at
an aggregate cost of $4,000.
The local concern has been at work
on these cars for some months and six
of them were finished and shipped sew
eral weeks ago. The remainder, 1t is
expected will be sent out on Thurs
day evening. accompanied by an in
spector. In the building Of these cars
the Harlan & Holingsworth Company
have used the best of material and as
a result they are practically inrestruct-
ible. Each car is equipped with a
steel frame running from the plat
forms to the roof, and from the floor to
the top on each side, making a cage Of
steel upon which the woodwork is fas-
tened. The floors also are Of heavy
plates and it is estimated that in case
of a collision the cars would neither
telescope no break If they rolled down
an embankment.
Each car is equipped with two sets
of double trucks, six wheels, Weighing
$4,000 pounds each, the total weight
of each car being $4,000 pounds, and
the cost of building being in the neigh
borhood OF $4,000 apiece.
The wheels for the trucks, which are
set in steel frames. were shipped here
by the railroad company and the tires
shrunk on them by the Lobdell Car
Wheel Company. The wheels are OF
the best quality of iron and capable OF
standing the heavy curves and grades
of the road over which they viii be
compelled to travel.
Government Inspector Vickery is eX-
pected here on Thursday to examine
the cars and pass upon them. Wher
viewing the last cars shipped he COM
plimented the Harlan & Hollingsworti
Company on the thoroughness of thei
work. During the last year nineteer
