| Nothing OF public nature is to at
tach to the observance of Columbus day
in Barre this year, and if the minds OF
most people were not at this moment
palpably diverted by thoughts Of war and
the most disastrous epidemic in the his
tory Of the city, there is little doubt
that the anniversary of the discovery Of
America would pass by almost unno-
| ticed. Comparatively little attention has
been paid TO the anniversary in recent
years. 1t was stated this forenoon that
stores whose clerks are affiliated with
the clerks union will remain open all
day Saturday. This statement applied
at least to the grocery stores, for a
prominent groceryman said that the alb.
normal conditions existing in the city
made it almost imperative that the
stores should be open a wen known
grocer who is affiliated with the Barre
Merchants association said that the hol-
iday would be observed by a suspension
of business, as in former years
