WHERE MARBLE COMES FROM.
Vermont Still Leads in Production of
 that Stone.
From the Providence Journal.

From the Providence Journal
 If any one were asked to name the state from which the largest amount of marble comes, he would probable say Vermont; and the answer would be cor rect for according to statistical report on the stone industry of the country for 1907. Vermont produced 5S.65 per cent. of the total output last year. The value of this product was $4596, 724; its mass was 115O,0OO cubic feet. Vermont is thus enti- tied to be known as the Marble State. though the term is hardly ever employed. "The Green Mountain State is so well fixed in popular usage that 1t would be difficult to displace it.
 Next to Vermont as a marble state cofnes New York, but by long interval
 g output in 1907 was valued at $9l1 ,951.
 / only a fifth that of Vermont. Third comes Georgia, from which the material for the Rhode Island state house was ob- tained Georgia was second in 1906, but last year her product was valued at only ss64,757. This was a large decrease from the former year, and meanwhile New Yorl's product well-night doubled. Next in order must be ranked Tennessee, Mas sachusetts, California, Pennsylvania, Maryland Alabama, Alaska, Oklahoma, Kentucky, New Mexico, Utah, Washing ton and Idaho The appearance of Ala bama as high Up in the list as ninth Is Interesting because 1t has only recently

From the New York World.
 When an actor achieves so strikingly individual a characterization as George Arliss has done in "The Devil" 1t Is inevitable that the public should more or less confuse his proper personality with the attributes of his mimic role. This is particularly so in the case of MT Arliss. because in the half dozen leading narts which he has played with unVarying success in America in as many years villains of various degrees of blackness have figured prominently. True, at his New york debut with Mrs. Pat Campbell he made a comedy hit as society youth or the silly ass" type. But then 1t was ,n a .deyilsh sort of play" The Second Nfrs Tanoueray" Much the same may ne said of his Sir wilfrid Cates-Darley in ..rhe New York Idea" But the f1endish Japanese inquistor in Belasco's Darling of inc Gods" and the degenerate Raoul in ar .eab I<leschna leach masterpiece Ill lie way-so stamped the devlfs marx on Arliss in the imagination or the pupilo

entered the market as a competitor. It's marble is said to be well adapted for both building and monumental purposes.
 Rhode Island granite has it's advant- ages over marble of any sort or origin; but the latter, so long as it retains It's first purity and freshness, is exceptional ly attractive. It's use is constantly in- creasing for important structures, as the country gains in wealth and taste, and wherever it is employed 1t adds richness and dignity to the architectural effect.

GROUSE.

Grouse, Jan. l9-Changoable weather,
rain, snow, ice and mud disagreeable
for outdoor work. 1t is reported that
Friddles Bros. have sold their saw mill
and everything belonging to it to John
NJ. Silver. Hope all parties may be
benefited by the tranSacti n. Have
not learned the consid ration.
Gus Smith has moved to the Frank
Patterson farm near Bartlett and six
others of our citizens will moye in the
near future as they have received
notices from the U. S. department OF
agriculture forest reserve; that the in
epector reported their claims more prof
liable for the timber than for agricul-
tural purposes. That seems unfair as
some of the parties have been living on
their claims three or four years and Gus
Smiths place was on surveyed land and
filed OIL two years ago; and his place is
surrounded by decided lands; he and
two others were allowed to hold 40
each, and one ten ac, es, leaving three
without any. They will all abandon
their claims and embark for other parts
unknown at this time.
We don't object to a forest reserve
if it would not infringe on the rights OF
poor men who have no homes AID are
desi,ous of locating themselves so as to
feel as if they were free ard indepen-
dent. Several of them have families &c
support and they are turned off with
dependent families without any means
of support.
1t is true the land which they locate
on is in the timber. Yet the soil is fine
and would produce the finest OF crop
as soon as the timber is removed. T. I
reserve has greatly crippled the prog
ress and development of this part o
Walloua county, driving number o
good citizens from or mid cipplin;
our schools, churches, etc.
The school at Fairview is pr. gressin
nicely with Mrs. Minnie Maeauley a
teacher.
Eli Smith and wife have dissolve'
partnership, divided property and eacI
is baching on his or her. own premise
perfectly satisfied
Roy Smith is shaving shingles t
cover his new hous . Look ont, girls
you may miss an excellent oprortun
ity for nice man and good home.

from Arko.
Mrs. o. A. Shuman has been on the
sick list this week but is now improv-
ing.
Everybody was agreeably surpr ised
at the outcome of the high school de-
bate. When they heard there was one
or two who went from the north end,
they said il they had known it they
would have gone too.
There were several from Arko who
attended the leap year basket social of
the EpwOrth League at Flora, Wcdnes-
day night. Some of the boys took
baskets. 1t was real fun to watch the
ladies buy the baskets. The proceeds
were something over $40.
The pupils of Arko are talking of
giving play in the near future. They
have gone so far as to order few sam
pies. hope it will be success,
1 am pleased to announce that the
Oliver children are improving and
hope they will be able to return to
school in few days.
Arko school was favored with n
visitor Wednesday-Miss Florence
Wager, who coDtenlplates entering the
eighth grade class.
What is the matter with our division
manager. We have not heard the least
thing about his arrangements for the
declamatory contest.
