The mammoth main building at the Buffalo mill lias been almost finished and the machinery is being set. upon several floors, a great deal of the shafting is in position and the electric wires are being strung bkMANMkAMA 4llA kntliltMM A l .h ol. tiiLUU^iiuuu nit* uuuuiu^. /i inuij 11111 of tunnels run apparently in every direction under the .ground floor of the great building and the engine and boiler room. The thing is simply bewildering to the uninitiated, and is calculated to give him the shivers. He might manage after awhile to work his way out, should his guide suddenly disappeur, but we would rather lie would stay by us, We have seen something similar to this in under-ground mines, and underneath the National Capitol at Washington, but never before in a cotton mill. The boilers are all in position and are being encased with brick, thia building is nearing completion also, and is being built with au eye to convenience. There is an arrangement to catch the cinders and ashes, clinkers, etc., and carry them to tho dump on the outside of the mill, and our informant said the smoke is to be run back and burned over again. The engine room is a very largo one and will look like a handsome sitting room when finished. One of the towers has been finished and has the figures for the clock already in place in the four circles at the top. The clock will be placed in this tower. The tower at the other end is nearing completion, and the enormous bell is being placed in position in the same. An electrical connection will be made between the clock and the bell tower, and the bell will strike tho time indicated by the clock in the other tower. It seems that expense is not taken into consideration in tho building of tips mill, but t hat the idea was to build a model mill of tho most up-to-date pattern, with every imaginable modern improvement, let the cost b * what it mav. A water works anil I filler plant for the mill and the vil lage is being erected. The great electric motors um on the ground and will soon be installed, electric lights will be furnished the village ami homes, as well as an abundant supply of water. With ali these conveniences, can any 0:10 picture a more up-to-date factory and factory village than is growing up at I'uff.tlo? Many new, comfortable unci commodious operatives houses have been built until the hills surrounding are laterally lined with buildings. The chango that has been wrought already among these formerly rugged hills and unsightly gullies, is something astonishing, and cuuses one to wonder if the promoter is in possession of the wonderful Alladdin Lamp When the work is finished and the grounds levoled and the beautiful terraced approach to the mill is covered with green grass and flowers, and the cute little flower gardens around the operatives houses are blooming, the scene will be a perfect vision of loveliness.
