narried at St. Paul.

A large church wedding was celebrated
at the Church of st. John the Evangelist
at St. Paul, Minu., Monday evening,
April s, when DR.. Albert Cheney Heath,
son of Mrs. A. H. Heath, and Miss Ray
Lamprey, daughter of Mrs. ]. B. Tarbox,
of st. Paul, were married by Rev. Theo-
dore Sedgwick, rector of the church.
The decorations were very beautiful, of
Easter lilies and palms. The "Tann-
hauser" march was played for the pro-
cessional and 20 Perfect Love" during
the betrothal. The bride was attended
by her sister and presented to the groom
by her mother. She was attired in a
princess gown of white Irish point lace
over white liberty satin; wore a long
tulle veil and carried bouquet of lilies
of the valley and white violets. A we'd
ding collation. was served at the brides
home to the bridal party and a few
guests. DR.. and Mrs. Heath left for Cali
tornia for their wedding trip and will be
at home after June 1, at SIG Portland
Ave, st. Paul. DR.. Heath spent some
time in st. Johnsbury during his fathers
residence here and made many friends
who extend congratulations

Road Commissioners In Session.

Hon. J. 0. Sanford, state highway
commissioner, will meet the road COM
missioners of Caledonia county at the
Avenue House today. The meeting will
probably be called to order on the arrival
of the II o'clock train from the South
and continue through the afternoon. 1t
is hoped that every road commissioner
in the county will be present and all citi
zens are cordially invited to attend the
meeting. Mr.. Sanford has held similar
meetings at the county seats through
the past month and they have proved
extremely valuable in the exchange o
practical ideas on road making.

An Engineers Accident Policy.

Charles o. Denison, of Lyndonville, the
engineer who was so seriously injured in
a collision last October, fortunately held
an accident policy with the Massachu-
setts Mutual Accident Association, for
which Burns Gammel is the agent.
Charles M. Adams, the adjuster for the
company, has recently effected an adjust
ment of the claim, which is entirely
satisfactory to Mr.. Denison and his
friends. Mr.. Denison is particularly
grateful for the kind treatment he has
received from the company, and also for
financial assistance that has been given
during his disability.

OVER TWO TONS BY EXPRESS.
Il. g. r. Fairbanks & Dc. Make and
Ship n Big Scale In Eight Days.

cuAP a. DAS JCtahC An hhSht DHys'
The daily work at the scale factory is
often OF routine nature, but the past
week has been a decided exception and
on Monday afternoon 100000 pound
hopper scale, which itself weighed 1881
pounds, was shipped by express, The
story of its construction and shipment
abounds in striking features and shows
what big firm can do when the occa.
sion arises.
On Saturday afternoon, April 6, two
gentlemen from the selling department
arrived in town and brought large Or
der for scales. 1t was necessary to mod
ify plans and the draughting office deliv.
cred the plans to the pattern shop so
that work was commenced on the pat
terms the evening OF the same day that
the order was received. Work was con-
tinued in this shop day and night until
the patterns were completed. In the
foundry, machine shop, blacksmith shop
and finishing department the work was
prosecuted with the same vigor, so that
the first scale of the order was completed
in less than eight days. $.
Then came the problem of shipping the
the completed product. The nearest way
to its destination was through Canada
and the first train out of st. Johnsbury
after the scale was finished was the after
noon "air line" to Montreal. This train
does not carry express beyond Newport,
and it was necessary to obtain permis-
sion from the Canadian Pacific officials
to get the scale into Montreal. This was
granted-permission being secured by
long distance telephone. All along the
route the railroad and express companies
showed the same attention to rapid tran
sit and transfers. even to permission
from Supt. Folsom to hold the Montreal
express here 10 minutes to load the scale.
This precaution was unnecessary as the
scale was in the express car before the
regular time for stopping here had passed.
The scale was accompanied by the man
who will superintend its construction.
1t is expected that further scales will be
shipped this week in the same way, and
the work in the factory will be kept up
at the same speed until the whole order
is filled.

THE BUILDING OUTLOOK.
More Tenements Needed in St. Johns.
bury.

More Tenements Needed in st. JOhns.
bury.
There are no indications of building
boom in St. Johnsbury this year, but
plans have been made for the erection of
several new dwellings and extensive
repairs will be made in several cases.
George c. Cary will begin the erection
of residence on the Main street lot,
recently purchased by him, in few
weeks. The plans for this house have
been drawn by A. D. Houghton, who is
architect for John D. Rockefeller, and has
charge of the building that gentleman's
many gifts of college and school build
ings. The plans show some unique ideas
that will be new to st. Johnsbury.
&C. Follansby will erect residence
on Summer street, on the lot now occu-
pied by the William Cook house which
he purchased about year ago. He has
bought the Spring street lot between the
residence of A. S. Crane and c. W. Farr,
of Maj. Bonett and will move the Cook
house there.
The plans for the new house are now
being completed by Architect R. B. East
man Repairs on the Bates house recently
purchased by John T. Ritchie have been
commenced. The plans include quite
extensive changes in the ell and barn.
James Foye has charge of the work.
Charles A. Stanley will soon begin ex-
tensive exterior and interior repairs on
his Spring street residence. Previous
mention has been made of the two.tene-
ment house being built by Joseph
Gauther near his residence. DR.. w. J..
Aldrich has commenced the erection Of
another house on Pearl street. 0. v.
Hooker & Son will, during the summer,
complete the addition to their machine
shop. The foundation for this was put
in last fall. w. S. Goss is erecting a
dwelling house on Cliff street for his own
use. The east side of Mrs. l. H. Frost's
lot on Main street is being graded, pre-
paratory to the erection of dwelling
house this spring by W. B. Eastman. 1t
may be that later several more new
buildings can be added to this list.
At the present time there is great
dearth of vacant houses and teuements
in st. Johnsbury. 1t is fact that the
village is overcrowded and it is next to
an impossibility for persons in search OF
a tenement to find what they want.
The real estate agents and tenement
owners say that they have numerous
calls which they are unable to fill. The
demand is not for cheap rents, but
argely for those costing from SIP to 500
per month. One man who is in good
position to observe the situation says
that he knows OF families who want to
move to st. Johnsbury, and are pre-
vented from doing so because they can
not get suitable tenements. The ex
planation of this condition doubtless is
that building during the past two OF
three years has not kept pace with the
increase of population. If Col. May
directory canvas is accurate, aud i
doubtless is, the town has increased il
population 900 since the census of las
| June and if this rate of increase continue
it is only question of little time whel
additional dwelling places will have t
be provided.

The Microbes Again.

A recent analysis of St. Johnsbury ice,
at the state laboratory showed repeti-
tion of the old story. that the Passump-
sic river is a favorite haunt of all the
different breeds of bacteria known to the
biologist. There has been call for more
samples for another examination because
it is stated the little microbes have
choice in regard to their dwelling place
some water currents, apparently being
to their liking and Others are distasteful
to them. DR.. W. ]. Aldrich, the local
health officer, has forwarded to the state
laboratory six samples of drinking
water. One was taken from the Avenue
House spring, two from the village sys-
TEN, and three from the Aqueduct sys-
tenn. The samples of the last two were
taken from different parts of the village
presumely because of the currents.

the yard between the railroad park and
A. W. Babcock's house is being cleaned
up and will hereafter be kept in good
condition.
The last millinery opening of the sea-
son was that of Miss Ella Williamson on
Thursday and Friday of last week. The
styles are much the same as those found
at the earlier openings, but the nettings,
melines and other flmy trimmings seem
more in keeping with the warm weather
of the past few days than they did earlier
in the season. Dainty patterns in white,
blue and pink were very effective.
AN unsuccessful attempt was made
to break into the Fairbanks sugar house
last Sunday night where considerable
syrup was stored for yesterdays sugar
parties. The vandals tried every way to
break the lock and pry open the shutters,
but all the fastenings held firm. During
all the sugar season every one who has
visited this camp has been given all the
syrup he could eat and the attempt at
stealing is all the more disgraceful.
C. H. Goss has commenced work on
large heating and plumbing contract
at the Waumbek House, Jefferson. At
present he has eight men on the job and
1t will not be completed before July. This
is the fifth season that Mr.. Goss has full
filled contracts OF this kind for the own.
ers of the Waumbek. Mr.. Goss has also
contracted to make extensive plumbing
improvements at the Mountain View
Farm at Burke.
Co. D has joined in the movement to
take the Vermont regiment to the Pan
American exposition this summer. The
plan is for the regiment, or as many
companies of it as care to go, to leave
Burlington on the last day of muster
and go to Buffalo, taking their shelter
tents and cooking utensils with them.
The Guards last week appointed Lieut..
Celley, Sergt Ripley and Corp. Horton
as committee to confer with the other
companies.
