EAST LIVERPOOL O.

An improvement about to be commenced is the enlargement of the large knob and electric supply works of the R. Thomas & Sons Co. Architects are now preparing the plans for a four story brick building to cover an area of 60x160 feet. Work on the new structure will be pushed with great vigor in order to have it under roof at the commencement of the new year. The firm will put in a larger dynamo and run the machinery in the new works by electricity. Two new kilns will also be added to the six now in use, thus materially increasing the capacity of the plant. It is expected that about fifty new hands will be added to the large force now in the employ of the firm.
