He Opened Howe Opera House.

The death of Louis Aldrich, the well
known actor, which occurred at Kenne-
bunkport, Maine, last week, is of inter-
est locally because of fact that he was
the leading man in "The Senator" the
piece with which Howe Opera House
was opened on April "a, 1898. Mr..
Aldrich was born in 1874 and began his
stage career at the age of II and was
constantly connected with the stage
until his retirement few years ago.
He was not a great actor, but a pains.
taking and hard working one, and was
popular with theatre goers. He was
connected with stock companies in var
ious cities for many years and during
his career supported many of the leading
actors of his time. He played Cassie
to Edwin Booths Othello on the occa-
sion of the famous tragedian's first ap-
pearance after his brothers assassination
of President Lincoln. Mr.. Aldrich's
chief success, however, was as Joe Saun-
ders in my Partner" He was one of
the organizers of the Actors Fund of
America, and at the time of his death
was it's president.

Summer Time Tables.

All the railroads in the state adopted
their summer time table June "a and
elsewhere in this paper is given the pres
ent time of the arrival and departure of
trains at st. Johnsbury.
The New York express, which leaves
here at 9.+5 a. m. takes the place of the
noon train and the return train reaches
here at 1856 p. m.
The principal change on the Lake road
is the arrival of the train from the west
at 220 instead of at noon and the new
train to Hyde Park, which leaves here at
8 p. m. Contrary to expectations P PULL
man buffet sleeper has been put on the
Lake road by which there is through
service from Polt tland to Buffalo. This
car is attached to the afternoon train go
ing West and goes to Swanton, st.
Johns, Montreal, Toronto and Buffalo
reaching the exposition city about 10 in
the forenoon after leaving St. Johnsbury
From Swanton to Buffalo the car goes
over the Grand Trunk system.

Our LOng-PrOmised Trolley.

EDITOR CALEDoNIAN: The other day
the Burlington Free Press contained an
item to the effect that somebody in Bur-
lington, unwittingly led into talking
about St. Johnsbury's long promised
trolley line, remarked that "the line would
without doubt be built next summer" p"
This same individual also let loose an
additional bit of real news-namely, that
"the st, Johnsbury electric railroad has
not made much progress since the echarter
was granted"
This suspense is very wearing. Heads
have grown gray, and not few of our
substantial citizens have passed over the
river since the charter for the trolley line
was granted and the first promise for
"next summer" was made-and still it
continues to be next summer" To be
sure, few shovelfuls of dirt were thrown
somewhere, many moons ago, in the name
of the st. Johnsbury electric road; but
nobody can tell now where that dirt
went to, or when sufficient energy will
again be generated to thrust the shovel
into the earth in search of foundation
for our trolley line.
Meantime, while the street railroad re-
mains immobile, the automobile is with
us, and it looks as though that vehicle
would have ample time to educate our
horses in the elementary principles of "no
nrshee no Dullee" before the advent of
the electric cars. J.W.S.

Mrs. Sake took the train at West Hart
ford for Burlington and spent few days

St. Johnsbury and has host of friends
here who will tender their warmest con-

BASKET BALL
Teams Have No Place
For Practice.

The basket bali teams OF the High
school, find the greatest difficulty in
the way of success in the fact that
they have no place in which to prac-
tice, The boys have been renting AS
scmbly hall, and the girls, who also
have u team, are entirely without any
place in which TO do their preliminary
work. They formerly practiced in one
of the rooms on the third floor of the
High school, but this privilege was
taken from them. because the noise
they made disturbed teachers meet
ings in the rooms below.

athletic association came to Mr.. Otis
Tuesday, and asked for some money
from the Board of Education, to hell

ticed and 1t is most interesting to trace
the evolution of mural adornment. AT
first weapons, shields, skins of wild
beasts and other trophies of the battle
field and chase We're employed. Next
came the period of wainscoting and
tapestries, with yaulted and groined
ceilings; then the epoch of lath ana
plaster first with frescoe1 decorations,
followed by paperhangings of artistic
designs and printed in rich or dainty
colorings, until the acme of esthetic-
ism would seem to have been reached.
But not so, for at this iuncture, new
material for mural adornment and: by
the way, the product of Youngstown
factory was exploited and so instant
was it's success that it now gives every
promise of supplanting wall paper al
together for certain kinds of rooms,
at any rate, notably halls, vestibules,
kitchens, bathrooms. etc.
Reference is had to what is popu-
larly known as table oil CLOTH" which
formerly was manufactured in dull
and sombre shades and solid colors
only and supposedly useful solely as
covering for tables, stairs and
shelves. In its new form, however,
as manufactured by Standard Table
OilclOth Co., by improved processes,
| the designs and shading and cOlorings
are so numerous, varied and pleasing
| that they fairly rival, If indeed, they
do not eclipse the multifarious pro-
ducts Of the wall paper factory and
while still as capable as before of
utilization in the old way, ii has been
demonstrated beyond all cavil to be es-
pecially adapted to the other and new
er use to which it Is being put, viz,
| the covering of walls and ceilings
The fabric Is attached exactly as Is
paper, and while its first cost Is, per-
haps somewhat in excess of that of
an ordinary grade of wall paper, 1t is
destined to prove much more eco
nomical eventually by reason of It's
durability, or, more properly speaking,
its absolute. walls when sOiled, may
be cleansed readily and thoroughly
by the simple application of soap and
water, and if, In after years, their
gloss has disappeared, it may be re-
stored, and the walls resume their
pristine freshness and beauty by the
simple eXpedient of n coat of varnish
Furthermore, the oilcloth has al
ready proven invaluable as wall
covering for clothes closets. the com.
bination Of oil, plastic and varnish
composing 1t, in connection with the
muslin upon which the composition
is superlmposed, not only excluding
dampness most offectually, but being
