1t was somewhat remarkable re-
ception which the Ancient and Hon
orable Artilley Co. of Boston got in
Toronto. The Ancients are visiting
Canada, and Sunday they attended
church. "The Lust for Drink" was the
subject of the sermon preached before
them by Chaplain WEIGH of that city.
And wonderment guesses whether this
was just an accident or a premeditated
rebuke from the preacher, having heard
of the bibulous reputation of the visitors.

The Newark Granite Quarry.

The President aud Secretary of our
Business Mems Association visited the
site in Newark where 1t is expected
large granite quarrying industry will be
operated. Mr.. II. W. Packer, half own
er OF the quarry, expressed himself
pleased with the interest shown by the
Island Pond people, aud took the repre-
s,.mtativeS of the association over the ell
tire property. This vast deposit OF
the granite consists of about five hun
dred acres, located on the east side OF
Center Pond, rising in gentle slope
( ON its shore to an elevation OF about
one hundred feet; then the forma-
tion changes to broad shelves of ledge
from fifteen to twenty-five feet III height
extending to the top of the mountain.
On the east side of the mountain one ex-
posed ledge is from fifty to seventy five
feet in height and five hundred feet long.
During the month of August, several
openings were made in various parts OF
the mountain to ascertain the nature OF
the stone, and observe its splitting quail
tiles. Two varieties of granite were
found, the pink and the gray. The
lodges have no seams, and can be split
in any direction. One fssure forty-eight
feet long aud twelve feet deep was made
with one blast. The granite will stand
extreme heat without cracking, and
does lot dscolor when exposed to the
weather. Samples have been submit
ted to experts at New York and Chicago
who pronounce it fine grade of build
ing granite, suitable also for bases fol-
monuments. United States Geologis
Dale, when investigating the resource:
of the country relative to the supply O
building stone, visited this Newark
quarry, and stated that work could b,
carried on there on large scale for ont
hundred years without eXhauSting the
supply. The owners of the quarry ar
ready to produce the goods, as soon a
means OF transportation can be arranged
The first railway to provide for thi
will receive the benefit of the long hau
of freight to western points.

An Int resting Savings Bank
Record

Any system or method of doing bust
ness which varies much from that fol-
lowed by Others engaged in the same
line, is always watched with eager inter-
est. The scheme of banking used so
successfully by the Hyde Park Savings
Bank is so different from that of the
other Banks in the State, that it is found
especially interesting. The Brattleboro
Reformer says:
1t is interesting to note the progress
of this institution because of the fact
that all its funds are invested in Yer
mont and has never lost dollar by a
poor note.
This Bank pays 4% compounded
semi.annually on deposits of 500 or
more, remaining in the bank one full
year.

Safety of Savings Bank Loans.

The Hyde Park Savings Bank takes
justifiable pride in the fact that in its
nearl y nineteen years of existence, it has
never lost dollar. by poor note, a
fact demonstrating the absolute safety
of home loans when made with conserva-
tism and good judgment. 1t is well
known fact that for quarter of cen
tury, the only Savings Banks in YER
mont which have been obliged to sue
cumb to financial misfortune, did so
as the result of loans outside of the
state, so it must be admitted that the
lesson from experience teaches that
home loans are safest.
