LORAY COMMUNITY
STILL DEVELOPING
Soperlntendent KIcIntyre Taking
Lively Interest In Improye
ment ffork Amnng Villagers
Special by Stan! Correspondent. -
Gastonla, Oct 9. At last the writer
was able yesterday after a season of
interruptions to . do something that
had been ' looked - forward ' to with a
good deal of interest and that is, to
visit the Loray mill,, which is one of
the largest mills in the South. It has
the : distinction of carrying more spin
dles under the largest roof of any
mill in the South. There are in this
bis five-story building 57,000 spindles
and 1,660 looms., The building is 625
feet long and 125 Tfeet ; wide, ' and at
the north end it Is six stories high.
In the engme, room there is an en
ofmorus wheel which is a massive
structure of iron, and there is only
one other in the country "of tho same
size. They do things there on 'the
grand scale.' - - ' - ' -'-
The writer 'was taken through the
mill by the superintendent, Mr. T. M.
Mclntyre, and lntrodhiced to , several
of the girls and overseers. When The
Chronicle ' carried the . "Protection
Cap" 4 pattern, Mr.'- Mclntyre ordered
100 copies on his own- account to give
out to the girls, , but in some way only
50 reached him. These .were distribut
ed ? as best he could, and now over
two-thirds of the girls are bending
over their work with their heads neat
ly wrapped In the white caps. Some
of them have made them out of dark
colors, but the majority wear ' the
white cap, and so neat do they look
that many of the girls wear them on
the street when they go out instead of
a hat. ; ; .; -: - ' ""V
:, - All of the girls were delighted with
them, and everyone of them whom it
was ; the writer's pleasure to meet
said they could' not do without them
now, and expressed their gratitude
towards; The Chronicle for, the Idea.
The Lioray mill is one of which Gas
ton County as well as the State
should be proud, f or It is here that
the cloth Is made that serves as wear
ing apparel for the men in far, away
China. Great stacks of bales ready
for shipment to China were piled up
in the cloth room. In fact, the Loray
was" established for the purpose of
supplying China with cloth and ex
porting goods. Very little of the cloth
made in this mill is used in America.
Some work has been done about the
premises to adorn the place with na
ture's gifts, but a good deal more will
be-done during the Pall and Winter.
There is one of the,; nicest avenues
of trees leading to the street in front
of the mill to be seen anywhere, al
though there are comparatively few
trees throughout the village. Mr. An
drew Moore and ihe superintendent,
Mr. Mclntyre have theiryheads togeth
er ' on plans for welfare work
around the mill and through the vil
lage - during the next year. Some . of
these ideas are to plant shade trees
and ; arrange for flowers yln every
home. ' ..'.'
In the block on the east side of the
mill, work Is now being done on the
houses, putting new roofs on them
and painting - them on . the i- inside.
When this has been finished, they
will take another block until the
whole village .has been gone over.
Mr. Mclntyre has " been thinking
about the health and; sanitary situa
tion,: and" has bought, as a trial, a

President Worthington of Chicago Ss
Alton Assured Repentant Passenger

Railroad Journey. K
- CHICAGO, Oct 9. In a letter to B.
A. Worthlngton, president of the Chi
cago & Alton Railroad, J. B. Smith of
Qulnlan, Tex., asks forgiveness for
having "beaten" the road out r of his
fare for a ride of 283 miles in 1893.

given him and he hoped the company
would. If , informed . how much he
owed the road, he said he would pay
It when he got able.
: President Worthlngton wrote Smith
that he was absolved and added : ;
"We hope you had a pleasant ride
on the) 283-mile trip even if you did
not pay any fare, and let us - hope
that when you get started on your last
trip "to meet God, if you are required
to ride over 14 different railroads to
get to your destination, your last ride
will be under as pleasant auspices as
the 283 miles over the Alton in 1893."
Smith said In his letter he owed
confessions to 14 different railroads.
