.V number of Chicago capitalists spent the early pnrt of last wii>k 

 In Camden, looking over the grounds with a view of I'NtabtlshlnK a 

 veneer and box manufacturing plant. They appeared to hi- greatly 

 pleased with the prospects, and It Is believed that the enterprise will 

 lie launched at once. There Is an enormous supply of gum tlmher around 

 Cninden of the kind that will he highly adaptable to the use of the 

 proposed manufacturing plant. Camden also offers exceptional advan- 

 tages in shipping facilities, being located on the Ounchla river and 

 ihi-ee railroads. 



On the ■morning of .Vugust 21 the large plant of the Mlnne<)ua Coop- 

 erage Compan.v. located at the foot of East Fourth street In I.lttle Ilock. 

 ■iusialned conslderoble loss by lire. The origin of the (Ire Is unknown, 

 nnd when first discovered by the night wntehraan the flames were ahool- 

 Ing through the root of the boiler room. The lire had gained consider- 

 able heodway before the Little Uock Are department could reach there, 

 but by efficient work the firemen soon had the tiames under control, 

 and saved the plant from u total loss. The exact amount of damages 

 sustained has not yet been dellnltely scllled, but the loss was covered 

 liy Insurance. 



The old plant of the Wlsnrkana Lumber Company at Neltleton was 

 recently destroyed by Are. This plont had not been operated for sev- 

 eral months, and part of the machinery had been removed. But the 

 loss sustained was great, running Into several thotisands of dollars 

 with no Insurauce. It Is thought that the lire originated from llres 

 which had been built by tramps sleeping In the mill. 



Thi' .\merlcan Handle Company's plant at .loncsboro. which has been 

 closed for a .short while, was on .\ugust "J" reopened, and all hands are 

 now back at their places of work after a short lay-off. This action on 

 ihe part of the company, which was oceasloned by the placing of a 

 number of big orders for Immediate shipment, has brought consider- 

 able delight to the large number of employes and to the citizens of Ihe 

 town. 



The Ohio Uandlc Factory, which Is also located at .Tonesboro, began 

 operations on August :!1. after being clos<!d for several days, mainly on 

 account of the war's effect on Ihe foreign market. It Is now running 

 .in a full time schedule and with a complete forci-. This plant, which 

 is under the management of (!. N. Sparks, has for Its principal output 

 .ish handles. 



The National Cooperage & Woodenware Company on August 24 re- 

 -limed operations nt Its Camden plant, after having the same closed 

 lur some time. The company now has on hand a large supply of raw 

 nialerial, which will be used for the piesent. but the management ex 

 I.ects to continue Ihe operation of the plant as though ordinary condl- 

 linns existed.
