(From Thu-sday;e Daiiv.)

 Where is Alexander Irvine? The question put to Manager Shelly of the Chautauqua yesterday, could not be answered definitely. The famous writer, who was to have opened his Chautauqua course here with talk on the life in the trenches of Europe, is either detained in Europe or at the bottom of the sea, and his managers do not know which.
 Cities on the circuit ahead of Pres colt were wired to the effect that the arrival of Irvine in America was de- laycd, and not to advertise him as appearing on their courses. It was thought he would certainly be here ir time to go on the schedule at Pres colt.
 There were four men selected from among the famous correspondents in Europe, to lecture in America on conditions at they really are. Ger many set up a big wall, and it is be- lieved, moved every muscle to pre- vent revelations of things that would not profit the Hohenzollerns It is thought quote possible that they took extra pains to torpedo the vessels on which they believed the lecturers were travelling.
 One report received by Manager Shelly yesterday was that Irvine had been confined to a London hospital, an exceedingly ill man, and that all the time they thought he was on the sea, bound for America, he was un. couSriouS on 2 hoSnita1 cot

(From Thursdays DaiIy.)

With the addition of another huge oil-burning engine, the granite quarry out Miller Valley way has increased its capacity considerably. The engine is used in connection with the original installation, to keep up air pressure for the jack hammers and shaping tools.
 With the aid of the increased power the quarrymen are fast tearing huge slabs of excellent building stone from the hillside and transforming them into shapely blocks. Now that two immense internal combustion engines are in operation, it has been found necessary to lead the exhausts to a pit and muffle them. The first engine was allowed to shoot into the open air, and the exhaustS sounded like machine gun in action.
