AMERICAN NOTES.

The contractor who built the City Hall
al Denver, Col, is now selling cigars and
tobacco at a stand In the corridor OF
that building.
The New Orleans city council has re-
jected a proposed ordinance providing for
separate street cars for negroes, II; spite
OF great pressure brought to secure Its
-pnssage- similar movement -fatted In
the state legislature at the recent ses-
sion.
The total cost OF the Pan-American ex-
position, exclusive of exhibits, Is now
estimated at s10.00o.0o0. OF this amount
about s., 000, 900 will he expended upon the
Midway The Midway will thus represent
more than the total cost of some very
pretentious expositions held In former
years.
The Vermont legislature, which 10 now
In Sc sion, is about TO consider bill
which provides for the negotiation of
loan of $4,000. .00e--the entire sum TO be
expended on the Improvement OF the high

He is now ~ years old. but is still vigor-

The Kennebec CMe.) Journal says that
Christmas trees are already being cut
down in Washington county Me-. and
that the seasons output from that sec
tion will amount to 400 carloads. with $50
punches to a car. Each bunch consists
of from two TO six trees. The trees are
sent to New York ana this city. where
they will retail for about ten times as
much as they are worth on board the
cars in Maine.

Miss Scroggins has the usual contract
with the school officers. and she will con-
tinue to open and occupy ;ier lonely school
room through all the winter months. Last
year she had no pupils at all during the
FIRST four months of the term and only
two pupils during the remaining three
months.
