IT is announced from St. Adams that the Cen
trial management has determined to accompany
its new connection with the Barre road with a
material enlargement and improvement Of the
passenger depot in this village involving an out
lay of some S4 500 The structure is to be re-
duced to one story, and entirely remodeled for
legitimate passenger accommodations, while the
tracks are thrown outside OF the building, upon
the south side. Montpelier has been liberal
patron OF the Central, and her people have long
felt the need OF such improvements as are now
promised. We trust their wishes are about to be
gratiiied.
WE are panied to record this week another
death in the family connection of Mr.. Dennis
Lane and his sons, George and Albert-making
the third time within few months that death
has invaded this warmly united circle. First,
came the death OF Wilbur youngest son of Mr.
Dennis Lane. Next, week ago Sunday morn
ing, Clyde Hale, bright little son of George
| Lane, an only child, was taken from the fold
and again. on Sunday evening last an infant son
| of Albert was taken away. These repeated be-
reavements, following in such Quick succession,
proved dppDly
enlisted the sympathies of the community.
In reply to f. F. and c. X, who question the
accuracy of the article in our paper Of March a.
"a Billion Dissected," we would say that the
apparent discrepancy will disappear when it is
considered that by the English system of numera-
ton billion is a million of millions, and, conse-
quently, is represented by a and I. dozen ciphers
By this method a trillon is a million of billions
and each denomination is million times the one
preceding Our correspondents have in mind the
| French system, which is the one in use in this
country, and by which billion is thousand Of
millions trillion is n Thousand of billions, each
denomination being thousand times the one pre-
ceding. The article should have stated by which
method the results were reached
