The scheme for a railroad across the
state from Barre and Montpelier to Rut-
land hobs up at intervals, and beyond this
intermittent and. perfectly harmless bob
bling the long talked Of project is no near
er contamination And it Il, indeed, un-
fortunate that project Of SO much prom
Use has not passed beyond the stage Of
mere talk, for that Is practically all the
advance that has been made, There Is
one exception and that Is that partial
survey Of the proposed route has been
made by the railroad committee at Mont
pelier, But the progress ended there, be-
cause Of the failure to interest the capital
necessary to such an undertaking On pa
per there have been several railroads con-
strueted to Rutland, but unfortunately pa
per railroads do not carry freight and pas
sengers. There is an imperative demand
for railroad line across the state, and,
particularly, the business interests Of this
city demand IT. just now it is said that

the Rutland end Of the proposed line and
this end as to the kind 81 road to be con
strueted. In Rutland al electric road is
asked for 50 that local trade may be aeco-
modated, while at the eastern terminus a
steam road Is considered to be a necessity.
It would seem that the contention Of Barre
and Montpelier for steam road was the
more to be considered, because what Ii de-
manded chiefly Is means Of transporta-

cision of Acting Assistant Attorney
General Christiancy that the Ryan

at the post Office department in con-
ference with Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Robb, who closely questioned him

A letter which recently appeared In
the Morning Post OF Delhi throws n
lurld light upon the effects OF the
climate at Alden. The term Of service
at Alden FOR the Indian departments
has hitherto been two years; but the
Indian Inspector-General OF Ordnance
has lately reduced the term to one year
for his department. This Is said to be
due to the constant breaking down in
health OF men employed at Alden, and
the consequent heavy charges 10 the
Government for invading them AID
their families. The object OF the let
ter above referred TO is to suggest that
what Is sauce for the Indian depart
ment Is also sauce FOR other branches
OF the service. and he mentions incl
dentally that no less than thirteen fam
lilies Of the Hampshire regiment had
to be lnyallded home from Alden with
In three months OF their arrival there.
Another interesting fact, mentioned on
the authority OF n royal engineer off,
Ger. IS that the climate OF Alden causes
"lron and bricks TO crumble away In
n short space OF time" from which the
Inference Is that human constitutions
composed OF any more perlshable ma
terlal than Iron and brick must crumble
away In n stlll shorter period. II

The italian Chamber of Deputies has
passed a bill which practically annuls
for two years one Of the most I'm.
portant clauses Of the new law for the
preservation OF art treasures In Italy.
by this bill the export Of objects or
value is absolutely forbidden and that
Of less valuable objects practically
rendered impossible for a period Of two
years, during which time the Govern
ment win complete and publish its
catalogues. The effect of this. says the
Rome correspondent OF the London
Times. is to destroy the most useful
provisions OF the new law and to en-
sure tho continuance OF the deplorable
system OF clandestine export, which
profits nobody but dishonest dealera
