CALEOON|AN's LAST ISSUE
Financial Difficulties Cause Extinction
Of st. JOhnsbury Newspaper Es-
tnblished in 1897.

st. Johnsbury, Jan. 9.-The last issue
of the St. Johnsbury Caledonian APP
peared to-day. Since the financial en-
tarrassment of w. ]. Bigelow, the edi-
tor and manager, the paper has been
run by three trustees, who have tried
to sell the property to some party who
would continue the publication, but no
one has been found with sufficient
capital who was interested in the bus
mess. Those who have paid for new
subscriptions will be refunded the pro
rata part of the subscription. The trus-
tees say: I'VE cannot help feeling that
the discontinuance of this old publica-
ton Is a calamity. but we are unable
to avoid it," 1t is supposed that the
machinery. stock, type. etc, will be sold
at auction.
The weekly edition of the Caledonian
was commenced August s. 1887. and 81
volumes have been printed. The daily
edition was started nearly three years
ago, by Walter ]. Bigelow, shortly af-
ter he removed to St. Johnsbury from
Burlington and acquired the property.
