WORK WILL BEGIN ON
AIT METAL FACTORY
After Long Delay 1t viii
Begin

The Southern Art Metal Co, OF
Americas, is now ready to begin ac-
tive operations in the erection of it's
plant here, having after considerable
delay secured a factory site. The pui
chase was finally consummated yes
terday morning, and orders have been
given for hauling material to tie
grounds. The new plant will be locat-
ed on Hill street, and the Seaboard
railway, the company having purchas-
ed the coal yard property of Bolton
Bros. there. The lot has frontage
of 210 feet on the railroad, and 1872
feet on Hill street.
The delay in beginning building
operations was the result of inability
to get a desirable factory site. Several
sites were under consideration, AMI
after long delay the Bolton property
was secured yesterday. Directly upon
the railroad, with sidetracks already
built, the site is an excellent one.
President C. C. Hawkins, of the
Southern Art Metal Co., stated yester-
day that building material would De
placed there at once and the erection
of the necessary buildings for foundry
and workshops begun next week.
Without htndrance of bad weather,
or other delays, he thinks the plant
should be completed within six weeks
or two months at the utmost, and by
April LIST a score or more busy artisans
will be at work there in the manufac-
ture of metal roofing and metal build
ers' supplies.
The company, composed of Americas
business men, of which Mr.. L. w. Rose.
a practical man in the business, is SUI
perintendent, is capitalized at 10000,
and will doubtless prove a successful
enterprise.

''FRECKLES"

Great care has been taken by Mana
ger A. G Delamater in selecting the
artists to create the different roles IN
the dramatization of Gene Stratton-
Porter's novel, "Freckles." The most
difficult role to fill was that of
Freckles, as it not only required an
exceedingly young, handsome actor,
but one who was possessed of a grand
opera voice as we'll. At least hun
dred different applicants were inter-
viewed before one was selected. There
are very few Scotch artists in America
at present disengaged, therefore 1t
was necessary to send to England fog
actors to play Mr.. and Mrs. Duncan.
The other parts are portrayed by
American actors and actresses, all Of
whom are thoroughly familiar with the
types prevailing in the locale where
the story is laid-Advt.

ELECTRICITY In CAT
GIVES IT nine LIVES
Important Scientific Fact ES.
tabIiShed

New London, Conn.,, Feb. 6.-Why a
cat has nine lives ceases to be a ques-
ton. The presence of electricity ex-
plains it,
This important contribution to scien-
tific knowledge is made by Herbert A.
Dean, of Providence, who holds the de-
lightful job of official cat and dog
executioner in Providence, New Lon
don and other stops on Mr.. Mellen S
railroad.
He has cut short the careers of num-
erous dogs here by asphyxiation in a
large tank. None of them gave Dean
bit of trouble
Several months ago he placed a cat
in the gas tank and turned on the
fumes. Within few minutes the tank
exploded, almost consigning Dean and
his assistant, Earl Brown, to the fate
decided on for the cat.
Dean thought that was just an ordi-
nary accident, but today when a second
cat was tossed into the tank the death
chamber blew up again. Brown was
slightly injured and Deans hair was
singed What remains of the tank will
never form topic of conversation.
Dean, seeking an explanation, went
this afternoon to the offices of the
New London Gas and Electric Company
and told his story One of the officials
laughed and said that when cat is
thrown into the tank the feline arches
its back and by rubbing the same
against the side of the tank generates
so much electricity that an explosion
is inevitable.
The gas expert said that this was 50
because one OF his engineers who had
looked into the thing said it was so.
