H. D. Percival, M. D., of Covington, Kentucky, is in the city and has paid a visit to the chamber. He is sent here by a heavy corporation at Covington engaged in the manufacture of glass. If he can find land suitable to his purpose and a supply of natural gas, a factory will be set up which will employ seven hundred hands.
