EDITORIAL From a Danish newspaper we jearn with regret of the resignation of Mr. R Baumann as Danish Specialcommissioner in the Virgin Islands thus severing a connection of nearly twenty years stand- ing. Mr. Baumann was always very popular in both St. Croix and St. Tho - - as and unguestionably was one of the fa- vorite ofeials of the lateDanish ('sloniai administration, winning the kind regard of those who had to deal ‘with him, . through his exceedingly gracious and . weli-bred manners to ail. :It is certain he has the.good wishes of a large ma- i jority for his future welfare. | L.OCAL. ‘'he machinery of Peter’s Rest Station . which has been discontinued as a grind- | ing centre, is now assembled on the - wharf certain varts being boxed in readi- | ness for shipment to St. Kitts by vessel | calling for that purpose. It is understood . these works will be installed in a factory | acquired 1n St. Kitts by Mr. A. W. Elliot ' of Est. Mt. Pellier here. f The hot weather continues. There ! was a pretty fair shower of rain yester- day wmworning a.d from Dbrederiksted | there is reported a heavy fall§ at noon. | Much more rain is still urgently needed ! or there will be practically no crop next | year. ’ The iatest business oddity is the scar- l city oi sole leather in the local market, | We have to be shod with iron or some | other material while this lasts. There is likewise a shertage of buiiding cemenpt on which account some undertzkings have been postponed. Cement selis for anything around sl2 a barre: and we read in a recent Danish paper thar a shipload had been sent to Haiti rot so lo g ago. s The schooner Vigiiaut making the trip from St, Thomas with the mails has not yet arrived, owing probably to the calm- ness of the weather. : Frederiksted, St. Crix, V.
