A large force of carpenter· and painters is at work thin week, pushing the auditorium to completion. The ceiling has i>een completed and the roof and ex terior of the building painted. Ac Icording to the first plans the floor space near the stage was to have be«-n covered with gravel hut this week the directors decided to have the entire floor constructed of plank and tliis week is now being done.

Thin fence is made of red palings and it considered one of the inoet durable fences that can be constructed. While improvents have been going on at the park tbe street railway J peonie have been making some needed repairs on the car line which very materially strengthens it for handling the large crowds that will be here next week.

Ir» China probably more wood is used for coffins than any other pur pose. The coffins are made of lum ber from four to ten inches thick. It is not a high estimate to say that from 8,000,000,000 to 10,000,000,000 feet of lumber are annually tints utilized. Agents for American agricultural I machines sold in Constantinople last year 370 reapers and mowers, two binders, four ral:»s and o'ne thresher. No effort is made to sell binders, because they are considered too complicated for satisfactory use by the Turkish peasants. Route Inspecter Mere. ι On account of the «fre.it number I of rural mail routes being estab j llshed all over the country the mat ter of introducing the system in the country surrounding Waxahachie has been greatly delayed. Recently j the divisions were rearranged and more inspectors employed by the government that the work of estab lishing routes mightjbe greatly facil itated. Mr. H. 11. Colclazer, route inspector with headquarters at St. Louis, arrived in the city last night to make an inspection of the routes recently arranged by Postmaster Beaty. He and Mr. Beaty left the city early this morning on a tour of inspection and will continue the work until all routes have been gone over, which will probably re quire about ten days. After this matter lias been definitely settledan examination for rural rout·· carriers will be held. It hof>«d to ha*e J full service in operation by Septem ber 1.
