EXPLOSION CATASTROPHE

One of the worst catastrophes in the
history of quarrying in this section, &C.
CURED III the quarry of the Capital late
Company at Mortified on Wednesday
afternoon.
Frank and Fred Townsen were drilling
out an uneXploded blast, which contained
about a fourth keg of powder, when it ex-
ploded. Frank was the greater sufferer,
being torn and wounded about the arms
and body, while his brother escaped with
slighter Injuries. The latter was taken to
his home in Mortified Center.
Frank was brought to this city on the
evening train by j. Il. Almon, manager of
the quarry, and taken to the Heaton hos
pital. The physicians say they have neN er
seen such heartsickening case in thehos-
pital. The right hand was literally torn
away and the arm had to be amputated
about four inches below the shoulder, His
left arm was broken in two places below
the elbow and the thumb of the hand had
to be amputated His wife and Mr. Forsyth
of Northfield, his father-in-law, are with
him.

THE MOTHS.

Printers ink is an eXterminator of
moths in the natural world as we'll as

invaluable are its uses. The narrow
band of ink applied to the elms in
this city is capturing multitudes of
parents Of the insect that devastated
these trees in some parts of the city,
i'll their course from the ground to
their breeding places among the
branches. On some of the trees the
ink barricade is plastered as thick as
sheet of sticky fly paper in the
height of fly time. On some of these
trees the band needs renewing. On
one III the State House yard the barri-
cade is white with the insects and more
are on the march to reach the branch
es. In that locality the naples, also,
were girdled with ink and the band
is thickly fringed with moths. Eter-
nal vigilance till the campaign of the
destroyers is ended is the price of
safety for the trees. If the war

and destroy the unsightly tamaracks
along the approach to the Capitol they

SURELY SMALL POX.

DR., H. D. Holton of Brattleboro,
secretary of the. State Board of Health,
was at Waterbury Thursday and made a
thorough examination of William
Greene who is reported i'll with
small pox. DR.. Holton fully confirm
ed the diagnosis of Dr. D. D. Circuit,
health officer at Waterbury and pro-
nounced it genuine case of small
poX.
The excitement that ran so high at
Waterbury on Saturday and Sunday
has largely subsidized. All who are
known to have been exposed to the
pest are strictly quarantined, and
Greene is in isolation three miles from
Waterbury. The village authorities
are alert and no further spread of,the
disease is expected. Should other
cases develop, however, no attempt
will be made to conceal the true stu
alton. Greene is not dangerously i'll,
and his recovery is expected.

MONTPELIER'S GROWTH.


City Sheriff Bancroft has Just COM
pleted the compilation of some very
interesting statistics regarding the
growth of Montpelier during the past
ten years which will he used by the
committee in charge of the promoting
of a trunk line railroad from Rutland
to this city
In making up these statistics, Mr.
Bancroft has taken from the grand
list book Of the town of Berlin, for the
year 1891, the valuation of property,
etc, of that portion of the town, now
ward six Of this city, in order to make
a comparison in the growth of the
city during these years.
The Journal gives only the totals of
this interesting and confusing research
which i'll its entirety is voluminous.
The total number of polls, including
those exempted by special tax, i'll 1901,
was 2010; in 1884, 1863, total gain of
SOL. In the ten years there were 81
dwelling houses erected, apart from
remodeled houses or barns. There
have been sixty other buildings erect
ed for business purposes, including
blocks, manufacturing plants, etc,
The BIZ dwellings are apportioned to
wards as follows Ward one, 81 two,
103 four, 10; five, 27; six, g.
In addition to these there have been
expended over $780, 600 during the past
ten years in the erection of public
buildings from which no taxes are de-
rived
In 1901, the grand list of Montpelier
was 50, 1872, 1853 and in 1891, SO, 766, 729
a gain of 81, 356, OBJ.
The valuation of real estate in 1901
was 80, 064, $50 and in 1891, 81, 500, 300,
gain of 81, 069, $50.
The valuation of personal property
in 1891 was Sl,GS5, 1913 and in 1891,
81 , 536, 429, gain of $40, 404
In 1881, there were 4Sl real estate
owners; in 1891, 602, and in 1901,
900 In 1881, there were 684 separate
pieces of real estate; III 1884, 1924 and

now number about 1000 and there are
now about 1900 pieces. Under the
existing law the listers appraisine

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.

I'rhe space devoted to the Educational
Column Is CT necessity somewhat limited
ana The editor requests that all commune
cations be brief and to the point No sig
natures will he given except 10y request or
permission
A circular letter TO directors and
teachers has been sent out from the
office of the State superintendent of
Education, stating that blanks VIII be
furnished from the office for the use
of those applying for information in
regard to schools or teachers. These
blanks when filled out and returned
will furnish definite information to
the Superintendent which he will use
in assisting directors to obtain the
services of good teachers and, also, to
assist competent teachers to secure
positions. While in no sense a teach
ers' agency, the ability to give such
information may tend to lessen the
difficulties arising from n scarcity of
teachers in one part of the State,
when in others there may be num-
Der of teachers seeking positions.
The letter contains the following
words to teachers:
Teachers should remember that
recompense corresponds with merit
and the best way to promote one S
personal interest is to enlarge ones
powers for efficient and devoted SER
vice. ~ Faithful and skilful per-
Torrance of present duties are the
true stepping st mes to preferment. "
The letter further recommends that
directors engage teachers several
months in advance and for veal
rather than a term. 1t also advises
retaining the best teachers, even al
greater cost, as the best economy.

Among the circulars of Educational
State Superintendent W. E. Ranger
are No 2, entitled "The Trees of YER
mont" and No. B., the last issue, on
"School Sanitation. "
These circulars will be found very
helpful to teachers who will study
them, not only in themselves, but in
the suggestions as to further study
along those lines, which they contain.
"The Trees of Vermont" has a
list of the native trees with brief
mention of those commonly cultivat-
ed, and so described and illustrated
that no botanical training is necessary
to learn the names of the trees and
the characteristics by which they may
be recognized This should be an es-
sential part of the education of the
boys and girls Of this State.
No. contains several able papers
by men of large experience who have
given much study to the needs of the
schools The principles of lighting,
heating, and ventilation are plainly
set forth. The suggestion in regard
to the course to pursue in the event
of contagious diseases and epidemics
therefrom in the school, is we'll
worthy consideration.
Other circulars are to be issued
which will be equally valuable. The
entire set will prove an addition to
the schoolroom helps as ready source
of available facts for the teacher in
nature study, easy science and ny
giene. Let them be preserved in the
school library and carefully studied
and used for reference.
