The teams of the Hallowell Granite
Works have been busy, this week.
hauling to this city the heavy columns
that are to be used in the Hall of Rec
Ords. The first column was conveyed
to this city, Monday, and was shipped
to New York, Tuesday. The second
one was landed in the sheds here, early
Tuesday forenoon. 1t was started from
the quarries about 6 o'clock in the
morning, and reached here before
9. Quite a procession was formed, as it
took SO horses, the largest number seen
on one team for some time, besides
quite an army of men. There are eight
of these large columns in all and they
are of handsome granite, sc feet 10
inches long and feet 10 inches in di-
ameter. They are by far the largest
lot taken from the quarries for some
time. One does not get full idea of
their size until he stands beside them.
Before leaving the sheds at the quar-
ries they were Grated, that is, heavy
planking was placed around them and
fastened together with heavy bands.
So far the company has been fortunate
in moving the columns, for it is a deli
cate piece of work to load and unload
them and then load them on the cars.

That 25 Cent Raise.

Some OF the carpenters in this city
are of the opinion that the demand
for an extra 25 cents per day will not
be enforced when the time comes.
Those taking this view declare that
many of the men are now receiving
25 cents more per day than they did,
last year, and are satisfied and say
that these will not take much of an
active part in attempting to get the
raise for others while running the
chance of losing it themselves.
The contractors do not take very
kindly to the last demand and there
seems to be somewhat of a disposition
among them to fight it. The time set
will expire the first day of May and a
good many believe that the matter will
be satisfactorily adjusted before that
time,
