Fair grounds for the twenty-fourth
annual exhibition Sept. $3.50, re-
Gently had an interesting expert
ence with an aged man who was
found wandering among the build

When questioned by the workmen
the stranger, who refused to give
his name, said he had last visited
the spot forty-six years ago when
he was taken there as a wounded
soldier and kept in the government
hospital many weeks. The man
pointed out the sites of the various
buildings as they were located when
the United States government main
tanned a hospital on what are now
the fair grounds during the Civil
War. The fair management is
thinking seriously Of putting mark
ers on the sites of the hospital
buildings so that visitors may see
where they stood.

A CHAMpLAIN MEMORIAL

The question of Champlain memo
rial is now worthy of serious attention.
The Tercentenary event has come and
gone and no action concerning the memo
rial can affect favorably or unfavorably
the celebration in any quarter. The
general idea, presumably, a memorial
is that it shall tabe some form monu-
mental With ample means available
and with harmony of agreement upon a
site, the idea has something in its favor,
notwithstanding this paper still holds
to its previously expressed opinion that
monument to Champlain is matter
secondary to the larger of the annivers-
ary's opportunities, the carrying over OF
the great meaning of the civic observance
upon the future and for the future of
the Champlain vally.
As to a monument what shall it
be or where it shall be, this paper valves
its privilege of being controversial. What
ever is done in this line with the means
at hand is bound to be unsatisfactory
and unendurng. As an asset in any
claimant quarter, the future of monu-
ment is not worth the ink used in dis
cussing the matter Every monument
in existence unless it is high enough TO
give commanding view, is ample proof
of this declaration. Still this paper
admits custom will be served and a
great personality recognized after the
habit of men by erecting a monument
to Champaign tomewhere about the
beautiful lake that bears his name
There is a way however, in which
Champlain and the Champlain region
NAV be memoralized for which this paper
will argue-for which it will even pursue
a course of special pleading. That way
is in the publication of a suitable memoria
volume Cor volumes) that shall contain
all the essentials of Champlain's biography
all the essentials of Champlan valley
history from its discovery down to anC
including the Tercentenary observance
of this year, all the essentials of th'
history of England and France that ar

ELUDED CHIEF FAULKNER.
Man Wanted for Attack on Little
Girl Makes His Escape.

Barre, July 31.-Chief of Police
Faulkner yesterday afternoon watch
ed the house where Alex Tower,
granite cutter, boarded, and when
he arrived placed him under ar
rest on the charge of attacking e
little girl named Kate Coutts. The
man made no resistance but asked
to be allowed to wash up before
going to the police station. The
privilege being granted he bolted
for the door and made his escape.
Officers are looking for him, and it
is believed that he will be captur-
ed. He had no money and was clad
only in a shirt and overalls.
Chief Faulkner today served a
warrant on James M. Park, en-
ployed at Moore Brothers granite
plant, the man being wanted by the
Quincy, Mass, police for alleged
assault and battery. The man is
being held at the police station un'
ill the arrival of Quincy officers.

ALAKE CHAMPLAIN WATERWAYiJ

The Barre Daily Times is one among
the papers of the state that would like
to see Lake Champlain humming with
industry" To its suggestions of this
nature the st. Adams Messenger takes
eXceptinos saying that nothing could
be more out Of keeping with the fitness
of things than to line the shores of the
with dirty wharves, creaking hoistS,
rafting trucks and drunken longshoremen.
In reply the Times says;
But if Vermont is always to be ruled
by sentiment and to make all things else
subordinate to the sense of beauty Yer
mont will be the same old Vermont that
it always has been-lagging behind,
robbed OF her best blood because there is
nothing to keep the young people here and
indeed, decadent. The few of us who re-
main in Vermont might get along and
secure our bread and butter, while at
the same time we could feast our ewes on
the beauties of nature But the active
progressive people will have left us
and there will be nothing to attract
others of the same sort to our borders.
Does the contemporary desire to close
our great marble and granite quarries
simply because the operation of them
cuts big gashes in the landscape? Would
it sacrifice what little progress the state
has made industrally just to see the
contour OF the territory in its former
state?"
AS the Times in substance says, it is
the departure of its young men and
women that is Vermonts direst mis-
fortune, but the these people, thelife
blood of community, must go from
the state to find field of activity. Man
chester N, H., has more than 20O0 men
and women of Vermont birth within its
borders while Worcester, Mass, has close
to 1000 who were born and reared amid
the Green Mountains. Naturally this
exodus makes the state lag behind "'

ATTACKED LITTLE GIRL.
Unknown Man Driven Away by
Child's Father at Barre.

Barre, July 29.-.An attack was
made last evening on Kate, the L.
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles. Coutts by an unknown
man. In company with her brother
Robert, aged 8, she attended NOV
ing picture show last evening. A
man seated himself beside the chill
dren and entered into conversation
with them, giving the girl money to
buy candy. When the children
left he accompanied them, saying he
was going in the same direction.
At a point opposite the Lough-
heed plumbing shop, and near the
Coutts home he told the little boy
to run along home. He then at
tempted to drag the girl up steep
bank, but her outcries were heard
by her father, who chased the man
but did not succeed in catching
him.

connected with events in the Champain
valley and all the essentials pertaining
20 life in the vally, past and present.
Such a book should show the geology
and geography of the region at their
best, both in text and illustration. and
also, to be complete, it should carry
reliable genealogies of the dominant
Champlain valley families Further
it should be Champlain valley cyclopedia
commercially, industrially and agricultur-
ally.
Such book judiciously prepared
appropriately made, mechanically and
properly distributed would constitute
a memorial that would be doing bust
ness for the Champlain region so long
as books may last-and books, like
earthworks, are among the most en-
during things in this world. As to its
distribution, it should first of all 90 to
the leading Libraries of the world like
the British Museum in London, the
Bibliotheque Rationale in Paris. the
libraries of all the great European uni
versities, to our own Congressional Ii
brary and the Libraries of all our great
cities. In Vermont and New York, its
distribution should cover as much ground
as possible
Can any person doubt the merit of q
memorial of this sort? Can nav per-
son draw line against it as compared
with a structure for streams to
with structure for steamers to whis-
tie at six months of the year and to be
lost in an ice field the other six months?

The modern Sexton Blake climbed
through the kitchen window, followed
by his faithful ally, Bunny-or was it
Watson?
"Ah," exclaimed Blake. surveying
the surroundings, II find that his wife
is away"
"And how long has she been away?"
asked his ally.
Exactly thirty days"
"And how on earth are you able to
tell that?'
my dear fellow, by the unwashed
dishes and cups and saucers. There
are ninety of each in all, which shows
that he has used three day for thirty
days and left them for her to wash
when she comes home-same as we all
do. Simplest thing in the world, my
dear fellow; simplest thing 10 the

TWO STATES SELL ASBESTOS.
They Are Georgia and Vermont
ImpOrtatiOns From Canada.

Washington, Aug. 2.-All the as
bestos mined and sold in the United
States in 1908 was mined in Georgia
and Vermont, and the total output
of the various grades was 936 short
tons, an increase from 1907 of over
AZ per cent. The total value of the
output of refined asbestos in 1908
was $19,624 as compared with SILL
SS9 in 1897, an increase of Ga per
cent. According to the report on
asbestos by j. S. Diller in the
Mineral resources" series of the
listed States Geological Survey FOR
1908, the increase in value thus in
dictated is due to the greater pro-
duction than ever before of chryso-
tile, the variety of fbrous mineral
which is best adapted to textile pro-
cesses and commands the highest
prices. The main source of raw ma
terial, however, continues to be
Canada, whence came all but $1,64G
worth of the imports into the United
States in 1908, valued at $1,06S,922.
Much over half of the asbestos ex-
ported by Canada came to the
United States. The United States
leads all other countries in the
manufacture of asbestos products.
The best asbestos yet found in the
Tvr,4od ie hnttNpo ~
the Grand Canyon of Arizona. 1t IS
cross-fiber chrysotile of exceptional
quality. The outcrop is extensive,
but as the product must be packed
on donkeys about II miles down one
side of the canyon and 1000 feet
up the other side, and thence be
hauled 20 miles to the railroad,
only the hand-cobbed, best grade of
material can be shipped at present.
The variety OF users of the fire.
proof and insulating qualities Of as
bestos is constantly increasing. One
of the notable applications in re-
cent years is as a pigment under
the name "asbestine," which on ac-
count of its fibrous structure has
the property of holding up other
heavier pigments in the paint. Mix
lures of asbestos with various COM
pounds play an important part in
fireproof construction. Such ma
terials are asbestos building lum-
Der, century shingles, asbestos slate,
asbestic for stucco and plaster, and
asbestolith.
The asbestos trade suffered little
in the recent depression, and though
the outlook for the coming year is
for lower prices on the lower grades
of material, highgrade, crudes and
fibers will probably remain at the
present prices. The whole industry
is better established now than ever
before, and with stable trade con-
ditions must greatly increase in
volume.

robs it of its best blood and causes dry
rot, and it is dry rot pure and simple that
today affects Vermont. A Lake Champain
waterway would transform the entire
material life of the state and make
Burlington, Vergennes and st. Adams
grow apace. Only two or three places
in all New England have had theopportun-
tiles for growth that Burlington has had
in the past century and still her population
is, let us call it, but 10000, whereas she
had more than 5000 some so years ago.
But then signs abound that Yer
mont isn't dead but just sleeping and
signs are apparent that her long sleep
will soon be over. Here are the Bur
lington papers calling for summer hotels
and even limiting to the railroads that they
hunt for ways and means to construct
these hotels. Well, nothing, scarcely,
could quicken the life of the states
agriculture like a crowd of summer
boarders and a prosperous agriculture
is the ground floor of all. Once let the
Vermont farmer find home market,
if only but for three months in wear,
for his cream, butter eggs and poultry
and there will be transformation of
the states rural economy that will mean
wealth and prosperity.

A GREAT WHEAT CROP.
Farmers of Minnesota and South Dakota
Will Get 5000, ooo. 900.

" III wv ~OOO,oOOfOON.
Washington, July 3l.-The farmers of
Minnesota and South Dakota will get
more than $500, 100000 for the crop now
almost ready for the binders, based on
present prices, and there is nothing to
indicate any great drop in the value of
wheat between now and the harvest.
This means that the farmers of these States
will have more money to spend than ever
before in the history of the Northwest.
The figures are based on the crop estimate
of the Northwestern Miller. This publica-
ton, considered the most reliable wheat
crop authority in the country, places the
total wheat acreage of 1927 900 in the
two States and the yield at 235 100000
bushels, the greatest wheat crop ever
raised by these States.
The estimates are based on reports from
more than three thousand resident agents
OF the Minneapolis Elevator Company,
covering every nook and corner of the
entire wheat belt. Based on the price of
wheat in the Minneapolis Chamber of
Commerce the crop is worth exactly So g.
$50, 900 compared with Sl4S, 100000, the
. value of the 1908 crop, based on the prices
of year ago This means that the farmers
will get S165,O00, 900 more this year for
their wheat than last year. or an increase of
