Interesting Report Of Treasurer E. G..
chace Presented to Directors in Their
Annual Meeting.
The following report of the treasurer to
the directors of the Fort Dummer Mills
was presented at the annual meeting held
Jan. 18th in Pawtucket, r. l.:
Location of Land.
The land chosen for the mill building
is very well adapted and well situated
1t is on bluff about 20 feet above the
grade of the railroad, well protected from
the north winds by another hill rising
about 60 feet. The soil is sandy and OF
good consistency. our plans call for
power house for heating purposes at the
foot of the hill and on a level with the
railroad. In the future also there will be
a cotton opening house there. This
power house will be connected with the
railroad by side track
The Building.
The type of building chosen is the
regular mill construction Of brick ana
hard pine timber. The building is 32O
feet by 11S feet, three stories, no base
ment. There are ten foot bays ana no
spans over 20 feet long. The first floor
will contain carding picking storage,
cloth room and office. The second floor
will be weaving and the third floor spin
ming, spooling and warping. The build
ing is designed to accommodate the card
ing and spinning of a 10000 spindle mil
and the present allotment of machinery is
placed in it to the best advantage. The
next move would be to build weave
shed and take the looms from this build
ing and place them in the new shed and
fill the place left vacant by them with
spinning machinery. Then double up on
the card room below and we have a mill
twice the present size.
List of Machinery.
We have selected Potter and johnson
opening machinery, Potter and johnson
cards, Woonsocket machiner and press
drawing frames and rowing machinery,
Fales and jerks spinning and twisting
machinery Kilburn- Lincol looms, Cold
we'll and Gildard stop motions, and prob
ably Howard and Bullough siasher.
Heating.
We will have a hot water heating APP
paratus installed by the General Fire
Extinguisher Co. This calls for a small
boiler of about 80 horse power to run the
slasher
Humldifylns.
We will use the humidifying system
known as the Kelley system and installed
by the Rhode Island Humidfying Co.
Supplies.
Supplies of all kinds are being arranged
for now but nothing definite has been de-
cided as yet.
Power.
We are to buy power from the Connec-
ticut River Power Co. and are at present
looking into the subject of textile motors
as furnished by the General Electric Co.,
Westinghouse and Alls- Chalmers.
Bookkeeping and Cost Accounting.
The books will be opened by a firm of
Boston accountants and cost experts,
Messrs. Harpham and Barnes. They will
open at first as simple an arrangement as
possible, but one that will be elastic
enough to make into a cost system at
some later date If necessary.
Respectfully submitted,
E. G. CHACE, Treasurer.

NARROW MARGIN FOR cRESCENTs.
and Made Game Finish, but Lost by
Single Basket, SO to "a.


The Crescent A. c. of Keene came to
town Tuesday and went home with a
victory over the Bratteboro Independents
SO to 3d. About 200 persons, about half
of whom were women, went to Festival
hall and saw an interesting game. The
Crescent A. c. is a fast team and the
local boys did well to come within two
points of tying them. The first period
ended with the score ~ to in the Wis
itors' favor and at the end of the second
Period the same team was ahead, "a to II.
In the last period, with Keene 10 points
to the good, the Independents tied the
score. With six minutes to play the
Crescents made three baskets and then
the locals made two. 1t exciting
finish and the crowd rooted hard for the
home team but they could not nose out
ahead. Fortier, Bradbury and Fountaine
played well for the winners and Rice,
Orlin Whitney and Cakes eXcelled for
the losers. Ketchum. a big guard from
Putney, played a strong game in the first
period, but the pace was a little too fast
for him and Houghton took his place
Fortier cut his eye badly in the second
period and it bled the rest of the evening,
but he kept in the game.
During the periods a team of youthful
players from Springfield, this state, lost
to the Emeralds IA to A. The winners
made II of their points in the first period
ana during the rest OF the game the Wis
itors gave a fine exhibition. They knew
the fine points of the game better than
the Emeralds, but could not hit the
baskets. Dunlevy, Clarity and Marion
played a good game, as did Brady and
Tucker. The score of the principal game;

by Daniel Chester French. At the front
of the building are six statues of heroic
size representing Wisdom. Courage, Boun-

are considered the underlying virtues of
good citizenship in Minnesota. and are
recommended for cultivation by all whom
1t may concern.

Other Notable Paintings.

In addition to the pictures which l have
described there are several other groups
of paintings equally worthy of common
dalton and pride. Edward Simmons has
filled the panels of the rotunda with
series Of striking scenes representing the
civilization of the northwest; Ken
yon Cox has surpassed himself in lu-
nette over the entrance to the supreme
court room with three figures represent
ing Thought. Law and Letters; Henry
oliver Walker~has filled a corresponding
space over the head of the opposite
stairway with three figures representing
Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. And
there are twelve small lunettes in the
dome, designed by Mr.. Garnsey and ex-
ecuted by Arthur l.. Willitts representing
the industries for which Minnesota is ia
mous-the dairy, the wheat field. the flour
mill, navigation. mining, logging and the
quarry.

Like Capitol In Washington.

The facade Is In the form of a paral-
telegram with fiat domes Of glass at
either end, giving light to the senate
chamber and supreme court room. which
are arranged very much like those in
the Capitol in Washington. The rotunda
is somewhat different, however. having
a we'll protected by a heavy balustrade.
The walls of the rotunda and corridors,
the piers, pilasters and arches are or a
beautiful pinkish limestone from the ka-
sofa quarries of Minnesota, which forms
the base of color for all the interior
decorations. The balustrade is Of French
and Greek marble, and the walls OF the
rotunda are inlaid with panels of marble
from Sienna. Italy. There are two grand
staircases, one In the east and one in the
west wing, built of French marble, with
panels Of Greek and arches Of Sienna
marble, both highly polished. The cap
.tais Of all the columns and pillars are
Corinthian, covered with dull gold.
The most important rooms are the SEN
ate chamber. the hall OF representatives
and the supreme court room. The SEN
ate chamber occupies the center OF the
west wing, and is lighted by the low cir
cular dome, already described, which Is
decorated in old ivory and gold. Opposite
the main entrance the chair and desk

background of French marble of a soft.

in a building. Between the arches that
support a gallery for spectators are four
figures. designed by Elmer E. Garnsey,
who was given charge of the decorations
of the entire building because OF his ex-
perience in similar responsibilities in the
Library of Congress In Washington and
other important structures In New York
Pittsburgh and elsewhere.
