A Great Woolen ManufacturingFirm Locates There.

WILL EMPLOY 150 HANDSE. T. Skerry & Co. of New York Buys

the Valuable Snuff Mill Property.

Will Be Manufacturing Woolen Yarn?.;Within:The Next Three Months. =

Tho STAR is happy to announce inthis laat issue of the year 1001 tbat an-other great industry is about to locatein this vicinity and tbi t workmen arealready prepariDK for toe reception of,the newcomers.

Ohiingewater is the favored localityand the old Bowers snuff mil! Is tbebuilditiET to be used. E. T. Skerry &Co. of 17 Leonard atrei t, New York,a very large woolen yarn manufactur-ing Arm, on Thursday of this wfek be-came t ie owners of the buildingswhinh have belonged to the AmericanSnuff Co. for tlie past two years, and alittle later leb the oortract for recon-struction to Win. B- Bryat t the wellknown builder of Washing m.

The flrru already oper&tia three largemills in different parts of tbe East and.has been very BiiccfiBsful in \U line.They propose to employ 150 people atChangewr.tgr, thrpe times na many astho HniifT mill ever employed, evenin iti palmieet days, and this force willdoubtless be increased from time tatime. A gentleman familiar with tbewoolen trade told a STAR represeLta-tive yeBterdny that t;ie number ofbands mentioned would operate only asmall mill and that when the industrygot fully under way it was likely torequire from 300 tD 400 people.

•Mr.'Bryant agreed to have all thefloors leveled up and the buildings inflrHt-eliifiB order within six weeksIt is hoped to get the machinery induring tbe two weeks following and tostart tiia manufacture of woolen yarnby March 15tb. Tbe members of thefirm sail Friday afternoon for Europeto purchfise the special machinery tbeywill require.

If all uoeB well, they propose to erectnext Bpring a three-Ftwy building twoor three hundred fett long at Cliange-water and thus increase the enpneityof the plant. The firm is rated veryhighly by the commercial agencies andthere is no doubt thiit their coming isone of the mohtimportar.tetBps in ..theindustrial progress of this vicinity.""" ~

to express mv hearty appreciation of the liberal patronage accorded

the Masten store during the past year and to t'nank all who have in

any way contributed to the big increase in my trade. : .

Ih'the future, as in' the past, 1 shall do'everything within my

power to. merit a continuance of this trade and confidence, by selling

only reliable goods at the lowest prices consistent with good business

methods. Prices here are just what the goods are marked, and one,

person buys no cheaper than another. Prices here, also, are as low,

if not lower, than prevail elsewhere. .
