half. White had not concluded when
the resolutions were laid aside for the

Largest Monument In
U. s. Being Dressed

The largest monolith ever quarried
in the United Statss is now being dress
ed at the Wctmore & Morse quarries at
Barre, by Charles II. More & Co. OF
Montpelier for Joseph Carabelli, a local
contractor of Cleveland, o, who has the
contract for the Wade Memorial in that
city. The monument is for John d.
Rockefeller. the millionaire, and is to
mark the family lot at Cleveland, Ohio,
overlooking Lake Eric. The monument
will be plain. but will attract more than
ordinary attention on account of its
mammoth size.
The total height of the monument
will be 65 feet, and when erected on an
elevation in the family lot. it will have
the appearance of being much higher.
The bottom base will be IA feet square
and three feet in thickness. 1t will be
in one piece and will be the heaviest
base ever transported by rail, weighing
60 tons.
The plinth will be 10 feet square and
three feet, eight inches thick, heavily
carved with name. John D. Rockefeller
on opposite sides in bold relief. This
also will be in one piece. The die will
be six feet, five inches square and seven
feet long, also richly carved and in one
solid stone. The monolith will be five
feet square and tifty-two feet long,
which is the largest monolith in the
country outside Of the Egyptian Obilisk
in Central Park. New York.
Special cars are being built for the
transportation of this monument and
each stone will require special car.
The shaft will require two special cars
of great capacity. The immense blocks
Of granite have already been quarried at
the we'll known quarries of the Wet
more & Morse Granite Co. and are of
the best grade of Barre granite.
There have been hundreds Of people
at the quarries during the summer to
see these mammoth blocks quarried but
by special request of Mr.. Rockefeller,
the contractors refused to tell who it
was for but it became known a few days
ago.
The Egyptian Obelisk in Central Park
is the only enc that surpasses the Rookie
feller stone in weight and size. being
10 feet taller. The Rockefeller monu-
ment will weigh 250,O00 lbs and the
bridges over which the specials carry
ing the monument will pass will be in
spccted jest before crossing them. 1t
will probably be ready for shipment
about the LIST of November.

JUNIORS VICTORIOUS.

The foot ball game at Central Park
on Saturday afternoon between the
High School and the Juniors was very
one-sided and uninteresting contest.
The Juniors were victorious by score
of % to 0 and they played good game
considering the fact that it was their
first appearance.
The non-appearance of all but three
of the High School team leads one 70
surmise that they take very little interest
in their team. As they failed to appear
their places were filed by others outside
the school.
The High School team won the toss
Juniors kicked off. Smith made the
first touchdown in five minutes. In
another five minutes A. Milne had push
ed the pig-skin over the line for another
touchdown and kicked a goal, making
the score III to o.
Before the half ended Dombriskie
pushed tho ball over for another touch
down, making the score 6 to 0. The
Juniors interference was good in this
half and they guarded their men well.
In the second half, after nearly fif-
teen minutes of playing, Dombriskie
scored the fourth touchdown. making
the score % to 0. Milne failed to kick
two goals.
In no time during the game was the
Juniors goal in danger. The High
School played a slow and lifeless game
and only once held their opponents on
downs. The lineup.
