A Chicago engineer has a project for building an immense wall from the Rocky Mountains to the head of Lake Superior, and is confident that it will keep cold waves out of the country. This is not a good season to talk about such things, however. During last year the town of Bradford, England, increased its exports of coatings to the United States from $1,200,000 to $7,500,000, and of "stuff goods" from $2,200,000 to $8,400,000. It is hardly necessary to add that the people of Bradford enthusiastically indorse our Democratic tariff policy. A fire in North Bennington Wednesday destroyed two storehouses containing wall paper and a workshop belonging to the Stark Paper company, also barns belonging to George Morse and Frank Powers.

Peary will start for Greenland again in July, but on a quest that will involve few risks or hardships. He is to go to Cape York to secure the great meteorite which he discovered last year and which is believed to be the largest in the world. The trip will, therefore, be only a summer one. With him will go a scientific party from Cornell university, headed by Prof. R. S. Tarr, the geologist. Prof. C. E. Putney has resigned as principal of St. Johnsbury academy. He has been connected with the institution 23 years, the last 14 years as principal. The salaries of the other teachers at the academy have been reduced. The prospect is that the institution will be crippled by the reduction in its income. A largepart of the endowment of the academy is in the stock of the Fairbanks company, which does not pay as large a per cent as formerly.
