NOTICE OF ADVANCE.
Barre Granite Manufacturers Get II
From Quarry Owners.


In circular letters received by
members OF the Barre Granite Man
ufacturens' association and some of
the smaller Independent dealers yes
terday morning they were notified
that the wholesale price price of
Barre GRANTEES will soon be advanced
by the quarry owners. The letter
was signed by 10 of the larger
quarry owners and members of their
association There was an inkling
of the proposed increase several
weeks ago and the secretary of the
Manufacturers association, Charles
H. Wishart, has been working on a
plan to offset the higher rate.
According to the plan advocated
by Mr. Wishart and upheld by many
prominent manufacturers, the stand
ard of measurement used by the
dealers will have to be reformed and
made uniform so that a buyer Will
not be able to say he can get the
same grade of stone from another
dealer cheaper, although it cost the
same from Ene quarry.
There has been some talk of
raising the retail price of Barre
granite but this plan has fewer sup
porters than that of eliminating the
cutthroat prices caused by competi-
ton on like grades Of stone and re-
CARELESS of the work performed on it.
The plan advocated by the secretary
of the association viii be placed be-
fore the members at the annual
meeting which will be next We'd
nesday in their rooms in this city
when the matter will be threshed out.
The quarry owners new price list
has not yet been given out but Il IS
understood to be about per cent.
higher than the one now in force
while they hope to save themselves
the needless waste of quarrying stone

manufacturer. The names signed to
the circular letter are: Wells-Lam-

The letter reads as follows:
The increased cost of production
on the quarry industry caused by
advance in prices of supplies and
labor places the quarry owners I'M
der the necessity of raising the price
of rough stock. The advance to
meet the price of labor meant per-
centage higher than is consistent with
the we'll fare of the quarry industry.
and the committee of the Granite
Quarry Owners association have
gone into this matter fully, with a
view to reduce as much as possible
the advance necessary. For some
time past the quarry operators have
been furnishing stock from one inch
TO three inches above the size Or
dered, ad while this entails a loss
of from 10 per cent. to 20 per cent.
on their business, the manufacturers
have reaped no benefit.
1T has now been agreed between
the undersigned quarry owners that
from date of new price list stock
will be quarried as close as possible
to size ordered, and all quarry fore
men will be instructed accordingly

placement he made providing the

pAsssrNe OF TWO NOTED MEN


During the past week two men OF
national reputation have passed the
great divide. The first to go was
Jonathan p. Dolliver, senior United
States Senator from Iowa. Senator
Dolliver first came into national prom
inence in 1854, when he accompanied
James G. Blaine ON his presidential
campaign. At that time ne was an
ardent protectionist and remained SO
for many years, but finally the senti-
ment in his state changed INC as a
matter of political expedlency he was
forced to modify his views. At the
last session of congress he was classed
az an insurgent, with LaFollette, Bris-
tow and other tariff reformers from
the great Mississippi valley.
At an early hour Thursday morning,
David B. Hill passed away at has
home in the state of New York. lie
had twice been governor OF his state
and also represented New York In the
United States Senate tor N term.
For many years Mr.. Hill was n OF
the most prominent Democrats of the
country, but quit the party in disgust
when it allowed itself to be bound
hard and foot and delivered to Will
liam j. Bryan.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the E%nstachian Tube. When the
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness ~(caused by
catarrh) that cannot IL cured by

dry and sore, and his tongue stuck tic
his palate.
At last he fell into a restless sleep
dreaming that he rested in the shade
OF a tree by the edge of a clear brook
whose cooling waters refreshed his
burning lips But alas, it was but an
Huston from which he awoke to the
awful reality of his agonized thirst
His throat seemed to be on fire.
At eventide Kardoff came. He did
not enter the cell. but looked through

He leapt towards the door, but the
trap was already closed, and as he
walked off Kardoff chuckled "A cpai-

Who would have thought it? But there,

The prisoner shook with fever heat
His agony had become unbearable. He
knocked and feebly whispered WA
teri But all was silence all around
him.
In his despair he climbed I'D to the
window and pressed his tongue against
the cold iron bars. The rough bars
lacerated his lips and tongue and he
greedily swallowed the blood that
flowed from the wounds
1t was the third day since his meal
kardof cautiously opened the door.
Behind him stood the warden, carry-
ing bottle of beer 1t was uncorked
and the froth trickled down the sides
of the glass.
Now. then. prisoner if you confess
you will have this beer. and as much
more as you like. Who is your accom-

greedy eyes. Then with sob he NUT

The prisoner uttered cry of de-
spair. and then, as il AUTOMATICALLY his
lips moved:

The next moment he had the beer to
his lips. 1t was cool; it was refresh

life into his body. But with his
strength returned the consciousness

drop of beer was mingled with MS

He had betrayed his friend in the
