Prof. Walter Folsom, OF Little
Falls, will henceforth be a resident of
this city. The Citizens band of
Wadena has engaged him as
instructor for a year at a salary of
$45 per month, and the professor
came up the first of the week and
closed the deal. Prof. Folsom is an
expert musician and a competent
instructor, and Wadena will soon
have a band second to none on the
line. AS soon as warm weather
arrives open air concerts will be
given in the park once each week

THE VIRGINIA BUuDINq

It is believed that the Worlds fair will
have the effect of presenting Virginia in
an attractive light as field for the in
vestment of northern and foreign capi-
tai. The state has made wonderful
strides forward in recent years, and
many fourishing towns and villages now
stand where but short time ago there
was nothing but unoccupied land which
was regarded as worth next to nothing.
The Virginians intend to remove the i'm
preston that they are standing still, and
to judge by the manner in which they
have set about their task they bid fair
to be successful.

Of the latter act the journal Press
says:
he act was Il siastardly one and

citizen. Chief Robertson may mt
be the right man for the head of the

enemies tried to do something that

is something more than the charge
OF neglect OF duty behind the

The next move in naval progress will

The next move in naval progress will
probably be to sheathe the bottoms of
the new cruisers with a coating of wood
and copper. The sheathing prevents the
accumulation of barnacles upon the
ships steel bottom, and the consequent
frequent docking and cleaning which
this fouling makes necessary. The heavy
clogging Of the barnacles and other sub
stances makes the vessels bottom so
rough and h3avy that her progress is
seriously impeded, and her coal bills run
inordinately high. Besides that, one Of
of our new cruisers could not run away
from an enemy if her bottom was fouled
with barnacles.
