Improvement this morning.

s. w. Gould, Esq, was at Orono
yesterday at the dedication of the
new building, known as Agricultural
Hall, which has been erected during
the past year, at the grounds of the
University of Maine, at cost of $780,
900. Mr.. Gould was chairman of the
building committee and in the cere-
mony of dedication it was his duty to
formally turn the building over to the
board of trustees. This body in con-
tinuance of the formalities, turned
the structure over to Governor Bert
M. Fernald, who was present to re-
ceive it in behalf of the state. Mr..
Gould takes pride in the fact that the
work was completed with the amount
appropriated therefor. 1t is said to
be the finest building among the
many now devoted to the uses of the
University.
Last Sundays storm was easily the
worst of the present winter and it is
not likely that any one days precipi-
tation, for the remainder of our cold
season, will surpass it. The fall of
snow was variously estimated from a
foot to eighteen inches. There was a
high wind for part of the time dur
ing Sunday and Monday and the roads
were 80 drifted as to make travelling
very difficult. Trains were not de-
layed to any great extent but the
stages arriving here on Monday were
all late. The drivers from Athens
and Canaan both missed the outgoing
morning train on Monday and from
the latter town the stage did not ar
rive until eleven O'Clock. The Son.
erset Traction Company, lacking
somewhat in power by reason Of the
low water, had good deal to con-
tend with. Their first car from Madi-
son did not arrive here until three p.
m.
