 Agent Gordon A. Johnstone of the Danielson Cotton company said We'd nesday that the first of the new looms that are being installed on the lower floor of the new weave shed would be placed in operation next week. The working force at the plant at the present time is somewhat cosmopoli- tan, consisting of Wreckers, carpenters, masons, bricklayers, machinists, filters, painters etc., etc, through the list of artisans, but their widely diversified efforts are tending toward a common end-Jhe fitting of a mOdernIy ejQuip- ped plant-and day by day they are getting nearer and nearer to the point where the textile workers will be call ed in and set to work weaving the endless amount of cloth that the mill will produce.
 The Warps and yarns that will be needed by the weavers who will be set to work next week will be sent here from one of the various plants of the New England Cotton Yarn company, which is practically identical in inter est with those controlling the local concern.
 A force of men was engaged We'd nesday in setting up the more than 200 new looms that have arrived here. More of these machines-Northrup reach here every day. Work has also commenced at the mill for the con- structiOn of another addition to the main plant, this addition to be located between the addition that was built about four years ago and the north end of the main building The force | of workers at the mill is constantly growing larger and larger. Much of l hg p1I a1,f from the third and fourth floors of the main building, but it was said at the plant Wednesday that short work would be made of it within another week. Most of what remains is to be | broken up.
 The mill will offer work to a host of weavers before the first of the year, so many, in fact, that there may be Difficulty in securing them

THE DEAD DREAM.

When the dream is dead and its naawac
 flown, Bare is the branch where the rose han
 grown. And the song and the laughter are
 hushed and stili. And the blood runs slow and ths
 heart Is chill Like an empty house and A hearth
 ind-blown. When the dream is dead. Love makes
 his moan Over the face that he once has known And his voice ts choked and hls deep
 eyes fill When the dream is dead. Care claims
 her own, Ruling the world from a frovntnE
 throne: And work is weary and life goes fll. Robbed of the glow, the hame. the
 thrill, For the body lives. but the Soul has
 flown When the dream is dead. -Berton Braley. in Woman's World for September
