How the City Strikes One Of Our occa-
sionaI Visitors.

1t Is sometimes interesting to see our
selves as others See us, Therefore, the
following article by i Pennsylvania on
Barre win be like that
1T is my custom to make trip to
this section annually The city Of Barre
is located about six miles from Mont
pelier, the capital city Of the state.
Twenty-Five years ago very little
was known of Barre or Of Barre granite.
The town 81 Barre then comprised only
about 500 inhabitants To-day Barre
is recognized as the granite center for
Monumental work in the United States,
The city Of Barre now has a population
Of $4,000, while the town Of Barre has
about 5000 Practically the only indus
tries are those Of quarying stone and
manufacturing ii into monumental and
vault work for cemetery purposes al
most exclusively, which means that
about 5000 men are employed as stone
cutters aud about 1900 additional as
quarrymen These quarrymen not only
produce the stone used by the workmen
il Barre, but all over the United States
a. well
Possibly three fourths OF all the
Barre granite memorials are finished in
Barre, while the others are shipped to
different parts Of the United states in
the rough, to be completed at their re-
spective destinations.
"QuaTying stone for monumental pur.
poses is quite in contrast with the work
Ii the common limestone qnarries The
formation IS entirely different, the quar-
ries being in lodges and sheets of differ
ent dimensions and shapes. A line Of
holes are drilled about six inches apart
and three inches deep, after which steel
wedges are inserted and driven with d
hammer. which win split stone
straight thorugh almost as accurately
az II sawed Blasting with powder is
not permissible az IL would damage
and shatter the stone.
ANY sized stone may be obtained up
TO the limit Of transportation weighing
anywhere from one To 100 tons. Modern
machinery and equipment have made
many things possible.
"All quarries are now supplied with
compressed air plants which operate
drills Only a few years ago all holes
were drilled BIZ hand, which required
about 10 minutes time to drill single
hole To-day. one man with plug
drill can drii1 20 holes In 10 minutes.
Different nationalitiss are well repre-
santed, ALTHOUGH the Italians and Swedes
lead with some Scotch, Irish and Eng.
fish, the former predominating particu.
larly In the finishing departments. Their
Ssen conception 81 form and figure Il
universally acknowledge al superior IN
many respects.
IT is extremely interesting TO be
privileged TO witness the varied pro-
cesses Of manufacture and very much
more could be said, but let this suffice
at this time.

The Waterbury Record Is another
which believes that Barre can develop a
building stone industry. Says the con.
temporary;
Barre has business men who show the
proper enterprise in forming a company
to develop Barre granite as building
stone. Sixteen Of them have subscribed
$1,000 each to assist in q financial way
the launching OF the project Barre
granite occupies one Of the first places
in the country in the monumental bust
mess and we see no reason why 1t can
not become leader as building stone.
This much Is true. Barre citizens know
The granite business and are conversant
with it's possibilities. All are interested
and all willing to help
There is one thing about II: II Barre
doesn't embrace the opportunity and

THE CENTRAL vERMoNTvs PAST
YEAR.


On the whole, the annual report Of the
Central Vermont Railway company,
which was given ont yesterday, is en-.
couraging. The past year seems To have
been one Of greater attention to the bet
terment Of the eompany's equipment in
the matter Of rolling stock and tracks,
which certainly will be source Of sat
isfaction to the patrons Of the road. both
for passenger and freight service. The
motive power and the rolling stock Of
the company are said to be in far better
shape than ever for the trials Of the win
ter season, and the public ferventiy
hopes that such win prove to be the
case 50 that we shall net have d repeti-
tion Of the experiences Of few winters
past 10 may be said, however. that
recently there has been far les trouble
in the winter season; freight shipments
have been moved with greater dispatch
and the passenger service has been less
broken.
