VI cannot sav. I have heard sever al suiTirestions 011 that , line, and it i said that a company is forming for the purpose of establishing a factory there. One difficulty in. the w ay is that it would require a million dollars capital to till the building ; w ith the proper machinery for spinning and weaving", audit maybe difficult to raise that much money. I should not bfc sur prised if some company did not take it, establish power at the centre and lease the wings with the shafting and power to various enterprises and make the great building a hive htimming with small industries." "Do you think many new enter prises will be established in! Atlanta .because of the Expoi4tion?"

William Hood, a colored man, of Seymour, Indiana, was noted for his feats of streugth. Once he was em ployed as a teamster,- and on a certain occasion was told to haul a very" large, heavy saw' mill shaft from one" point to another. On the way, the team canie to a steep hill1, and the oxeu'stopped, unable to draw the heavy load. The white 'men of the party wondered what w'as to be done, fearing that they would have to send back a long' way I for another yoke of oxen. But Hood solved the problem, immodiatly. He shouldered the fron shaft, carried! to the top of the hill and replaced it in the cart,- to. the astonishment and ad miration of the spectatars. ' A huge steam-boiler was built re cently at Wiesenthal, in the Grand Duchy of ZSdcn, Germany; In fact, it is believei to be the largest boiler Upon its completion, a few weeks ago, th builder gavea lunch to the work men.
