Boston.-A quaint building on St.
James street, above Second, now num-
bered ZIG, is reputed to be the shop
where Oliver Evans worked in the
year 1895. Evans was one of the early
inventors OF which this country has
furnished so many, and although he is
principally recalled as the inventor of
the first steam carriage" or what we
would now term an automobile, when
he had his shop in the low.roofed
building I'm Lowndes or F''- s!les al.
ley the little lane low named ST.
James street, he was patronlzed as the
man who could make mills which
saved expense by giving 20 pounds
moro flour TO the barrel than any
other.
Although Evans was not a native OF
this city, he was descendant of the
first Episcopal minister of Philadel-
phia. Evan Evans. The latter died in
the year 1928. Oliver was born in
Newport, Del, In 1856, and his parents
were in humble circumstances. Early
he developed a genius for invention.
and while he was still a very young
man he designed non.condensing en-.

1t is the king Of sash crops, and as an
article of export it stands unapproach-

each year q favorable balance of trade
The prospects of a fine crop assuredly
will ge far net only towards a restera-
ton of trade activity in the south, but
also towards a restoration of confidence
in all parts of the country. When the
cotton crop is abundant no harm can

The south is a guaranty this year

All other crops are harvested except
