HEMS REW SCRAM INDUSTRY
It Is Something Novel and the Pro

Company of Well Known Business
Men are PushinR the Project The
Raw Material Is Inexhaustible and
Very Accessible.
Announcements are so frequently
made of industries! to be located in
Scranton that bnsluess mau generally
regard the news in a superflnons way
and as a matter of fact, but tbe pro
gress in the organizntlon of the com
pany whiob i to manufacture sbule
(vitrified) brick nnd other like com
modities neur JNuy Aug. bat, ou ae-
couut of the nclqneuesa of the enter
prise and the fact that tne compauy
weans bnainess, created considerable
comment in fiuaneial olrcl?s.
Tbe Nay Aug Shale Brick company
was recently incorporated, with a capi
tal stock of $60,000, to manufacture
paving and building brick, sewer and
dram pipe and flue lioiugs, ou the plot
of land near the turnpike crossing and
the Win ton branch of the Delawajf,
Lackawanna and Western road, Din
uiore. That the enterprise promises
success is evidenced tiy the names or
the following well-known gentleman
interested: William A. Connell. S. W.
Roberts, Anson Carpenter, W. V. Van
Dyke, Kobert Robinson and J. 11, Gun-
ater.
KAW MATERIAL t'ONHNED.
Until very recently the maunfacture
of tbe best vitriflVld brick was supposed
to be possible only in Iociltles adjacent,
principally, to Syracuse. N. Y Can
ton and .ancsvlllJ, U , and G:ilesburg,
111. .Nevertheless the raw material for
tbe production I of the article was
found iu the above montioned Scrautou
loiality which is iilao known as the H.
W. Drinker tract of the Pennsylvania
Coal company, where the plant will
cover nearly three acres.
Tests of the slate have been made by
prominent chemists and the result
shows the matetiul to contain the same
specifie qualities as tbe famous Gales-
burg brick. Considering that there is
sufficient material in sight to manufa
ture 500,000.000 brick and that the
capacity of the kilns will be 40.000 per
day, tbe magnitude of the project can
ho coraprehendud.
New and improved machinery has
been ordered, building pperatious will
be started next week aud by the mid
dle of November it is expected to have
the plant running in full blast. One
hundred hands will be employed and
the various Vitrified products will be
delivered within a radius of several
hundred milts cheaper thnu from any
other point of manufacture.
Vitrified brick is manufactured on
nearly the same principles used in
the more common article, extept that
they are placed in a drying oveu to
eliminate the moisture before baking
in tbe kilns, lue shale is taken from
the ground, pnlvsrizad into a fine pow
der and mixed with water to nearly tbe
consistency of mortar. After being
moulded the process is completed by
drying and baking The bricks are
kept in the ki'.n thrrty hours and the
finished product is as hard as iron,
whieh metal is one of its parts and
contributes largely to its strength.
PUttit BUSINESS PROPOSITION.
The gentlemen interested in the pro
jsot are sanguine of success and are
not promoting the enterprise for spc eo
lation. It is a business proposition
pare and simple with thorn aud they
are of the opinion that a large propor
tion of future building ana paving

will be supplied lioin the Nay Aug
works.

whole world and lose bis own soul r"
The jurist, who gives hu whole atten

it is in every calliug of life.

A BLIND RELIGION.
Morocco Missionary Treats of Mo
hammedanism in St. Luke's
Church.
The congregation of St. Luke's Epls
copal church of Wyoming avenue was
entertained last night with a very
graphic eketah of Motiamiu'idanlsm by
Dr. John xadie,A missionary from Mo
roaoo. Dr. baadle la native of byri
and speaks the English lauguage flu
ently, with a shade of Turkish dialeut.
For a number of years he traveled with
General Gordon's army ou its relief
t-xpedition, acting aa interpreter.
In introducing his lecture Dr. Smidie
puid a tribute to General Gordon, olues
ifying htm as a hero of the niueteeuth
century. For over 1,300 years th
people of Morocco have followed tho
Mohammed and Buddhist doctrines
and during all that time they followed
it blindly, becoming madly infatuated
with the creed, and the devotion with
which they perform the duties of their
mlogutded religion has left tbein des
iitute of advancement in moral and
intellectual spherea. Their teachings
itunil them to ferocity and no sacrifice
ia considered too great.
The speaker was first awakened to
tho utter degradations of those peopl
tiy a conversation ue nau with a pri
vale soldier in the hngheb army. The
soldier commented ou the oonntiful
harvest of souls to be winnowed by
missionaries among the Mohammedans.

Gordon expedition to Cairo he begun

One admirable trait In the obaraoter
of these people it that they braved
death for their religion.' They faead
titling guns and were cut down by
tbe thousands, but undaunted they
still kept up tbe assault.
Mohammed had instilled tbe doe-
trine that on the departure of tbe soul
from this life it would be met by
seventy-two maidens with blaok bair
and eyes of lustrous brilliancy. There
was nothing substantial tauebt,
nothing of a brighter and glorious
eternity.
The Mohammedans .In their exhibits
at the World's fair were uuable to pro
mise anything but wild horses aud sen
sational marriage processions.

Much Undeveloped Land Improved
During the Year The Park
Project.
There has been a marked improve
ment In lands on tbe West Hide during
the past year which shows the growth
of au industrious community. Not
over a year ago the tract known as tbe
Petteboiie estate, on North Swetland
Htrett, and extending over Gammon's
bill, was n pasture land. Streets have
ueeu cnt throngb, and extensions mane
to Garfield, Fillmore, Everett and van
Baron avenues. This beautiful terrl
tory is dotted with innumerable cot
Two new streets have been made
through the large plot of ground which
lies west of No. 33 school on South
Main avenue. The tract has been di
vided into lots by a land company; one
house has already been created and the
foundations are completed for two oth
ers.
The action which is now being taken
to secure Tripp's woods ta a public
park, is a noteworthy one, and will
meet with many anuporters on the
West bide. It will also prove to be a
valuable ally to property improve
ments iu that section. If tbe eilorts
iu securing it are successful, the
Scrunton Traction uompauy will un
douhtudly extend their line from
Swetlaud street to Bull s head, there
by making tho park and North Main
avenue accessible ou both lines. The
park will contain seats, dauuiug pavil
ion, miniature lake and base ball
grounds.
The result of a year's industry is
well shown in the handsome row of
bouses whioh extend along North Main
