From The World OF Tuesday:
The Blair Limestone Company, a
subsidiary to the Jones-Laughlin Steel
Company, of Pittsburg, whose quar-
ries, stone and lime plants are located
about two and one-half miles east OF
this city, on what is known as the
"Nicklas Paulding Vanmetre tract, :
made their first shipment of stone to-
day. The cars were placed by the B.
& o. early yesterday morning, and the
loading yesterday consisted Of seven
cars of stone. which were consigned
to the Jones-Laughlin Company, Pitts
burg. This marks the practical begin
ming of an extensive industry in the
vicinity of Martinsburg, which is des-
tined to be enc of the largest stone
plants in this section.
The Blair Limestone Company is an
operating company for the Jones'
Laughlin Steel Company, which is the
largest incorporated concern outside
of the great steel trust. The holdings,
in limestone land in Berkeley county,
are very extensive, and hundreds of
thousands of dollars will be expended
on their plant before it is brought up
to the high standard at which they
expect TO maintain it. More than $780,
100000, has already been expended by
this company in the past few months
for labor. Their tracks, which leave
the B. & o. just east of the Opequon,
extend for some distance into the
workings of the property which the
company expects to operate at this
time.
Besides the shipment of limestone
for flux. this company will erect some
thirty or forty lime kilns for the burn
ing of lime by the patented process.
and it is expected when the kilns are
all completed that they will be able
to ship in the neighborhood of one

to Ralph; and she aroused and en-.

corded, and no one knew of it but the
lawyer who had writtaen it and the
witnesses. Ralph thought himself a
rich man, but, outside of what the
paper conveyed, Uncle Andrew had left
but few hundreds. II was Grace who
was the heir, and. standing there, she
knew that if her lover received his
education it would be with her own
money.
She read the document through,
and then, without moment Of hest
tastion, held it to the flame OF the
lamp and watched it go to ashes. The
witnesses and the lawyer were her
personal friends and she knew she
could urge them to silence. Only ashes

ashes of her hopes.

During the two years of their engage

compliments to her charms, her face

change had come into his life, and he
was forgetful of everything else.

The last few words rang out with
an enthusiasm that was not lost upon
Grace, but she was even more inn

Already eleven kilns have been com.

ing covered with steel frame shedding
in order to protect the machinery, and
the employees while at work. The
plant is operated by electric power,
which Is being furnished by the Mar
tinsburg Power Company from their
new power plant at Dam No. 4.
At the present time the company
has at work about $50 hands. 1t is
expected that when the plant gets into
full operation that they will employ
from 1900 to 1900 laborers. This will
make an extensive payroll. great
portion of which will find its way into
Martinsburg.
The negotiations for the control OF
this property and the carrying out of
the plans to their present expansion
are due to the work OF s. w. Shoop
who has been resident of this city
for a number of years. He has been
in charge of the plant as superintend-
ent and 1t Is due almost exclusively
to his untiring efforts to establish such
a plant in the, vicinity OF Martinsburg,
that we are now seeing the opening OF
one of the most important industries
in West Virginia.
The possibilities for the future de-
velopment by this powerful independ-
ant corporation are untold. This Is
just the beginning and what the fu-
ture has in store can only be guessed
by those on the outside.
