A Lot of Dirt

The engineers of the C. & N.
w. are in the Valley figuring
with several of our citizens on
a contract for delivering fifty
thousand yards Of dirt. Fifteen
thousand yards of the grading
is to be put in just west of the
"Y" and fifteen is to be put on
the vacant lots west of the car
shop. The balance is to be put
in different places in the yards.

a couple of steam shovels in the
big cut near Blair and if salts
factory arrangements cannot
be made in this city, the dirt
will be brought from that place.
We hope the contract will be
taken in this city, as it would
make plenty of work for two

teams that could be engaged,
and would be a big thing Tor the
business interests of the city.

NO MONUMENT FOR MRS. ROGERS
Granite Manufacturers Notified That
No Stone Can Be Erected.

Eugene Sullivan & Sons, granite manu-
facturers, were notified yesterday that the
monument designed by them for the
grave of Mary Rogers, who was hanged
Dec. s. 1906, in the state prison at Wind
sor for the murder of her husba~d, and
buried at Hoosick Falls, N. Y, could
not be erected, permission being refused
by the Augustinian Fathers controlling
the cemetery.
The following letter was received;
81 am informed that you intend to
place in our cemetery stone over the
grave of Mrs Mary Rogers. l write you
now to inform you that no such stone
will be received in our cemetery. You
may notify anyone interested that no
stone of any kind will mark her grave
while her body is in our cemetery.
"Rev. F. A. McCramer."
The monument is completed with the
exception of the inscription. 1t is eight
feet high, three feet and six inches across
the front, and three feet deep, and prob
ably cost several hundred dollars.
The order was from a man and woman
deeply interested in the Rogers case, who
have desired their identity kept secret.
The monument is being held awaiting
their orders.
1t is understood that the action of Fa-
ther McCramer is due in part to the de-
sire of Mrs. Rogers's relatives that no
stone be erected, wishing to remove all
possible reminders of the unfortunate
woman. The mother and sisters have left
Hoosick Falls and now reside in Massa-
chusetts
