Nothing but purely routine business was transacted and very little cf that, and a few orders were allowed and ordered paid. Our attention was drawn to the easyj smooth wily in which the W. R. E engine has been running the past few d:iys. The improvement was so marked, and knowing that the engine had not been off for repairs, we asked engineer J. L. Curl what caused it, and he told us & id showed us what he had done for the engine. It has beeu newly linked up and runs as smooth and nice as when new. All this was done here without sending it to any machine shops, and shows tha Capt. Curl is the right mau in the right place, for if he had not been capable to do this work, the en gine would have been sent to the shops for repairs and would have cost the company a lot of money.

One piece of marble was taken from the Temple of the six Virgins. Another weight with thrte kinds of marble, all three pieces were taken from the Palace of the Acropolis; the third weight is a chip of rock from Mar's Hill, the spot where Paul preached his famous sermon as recorded in Acts xvi. Mr. Cook, a Warren countymari, who is on the U. S. S. Nasnvilla, touched at Athens, Greece, in Feby. and ob tained these historic weights with his Own hands, had them polished and sent to us. We prize them very highly and never expect to part with them. dwelhusr. Her screams brought her neighbor, Mr. W. G. Rogers over but nothing was seen of the supposed robbers.
