DAILY AND WEEKLY GLOBE.
vERMONTs LARGEST AND BEST
NEWSPAPER.


The new year, commemorating the compile
ton OF the first century OF our Independence
and witnessing the election of president and,
for the first time In our history, an entire ma
tional house OF representatives, will be one Of
splendid possibilities both to Journalism and
the country,
THE GLOBE Will avail Itself Of the former, by
giving the news, late, prompt fresh and full !;
by impartial comments on the news of the
hour by candid, honest discussion of the is
sues of the day by full reports Of local occur
rences, and correspondence both local and
general by agricultural readings, market re-
ports. and by selections both grave and gay
In a word, the endeavor will be to make THE
GLOBE a live newspaper, indispensable TO the
farmer and business man, to the politician and
student, to the office, counting room and the
family circle.
That the country may realize the possibilities
seemingly in store for 1t, we shall on our part,
as In times past, advocate the principles and
policy OF the republican party, as we under
stand them, and, to that end. we shall labor to
make 1t better and purer by combating It's
errors and exposing the wrong.doers In It's
ranks. We shalt favor and strive for real ad.
minlstrative reform, speedy return to specie
payments, an honest maintenance of the ma
tion's plighted faith, purer and better politics,
q faithful and economical administration of the
government, municipal state and natioAal,and
shall support only honest, capable men for
office.
AS an earnest of the future, we can only point
to our course In the past and assure our pat
rons that hereafter, as heretofore, we shall en-
dcavor to make THE GLOBE better and better,
and more and more worthy OF support with
each succeeding month. What The GLOBE
has been during the less than three years OF its
existence is well known, that 1t has been fully
appreciated It's generous support amply attests.
surpassed In Vermont. The combined daily
and weekly circulation exceeds that OF any other

WEEKLY GLOBE is much larger than the combined
circulation Of all the other tceekiy newspapers in

As the age progresses the Importance of
the estates increases, but the first really
great one Il that of BeuIy Astor, which
comes under date of 1927. Next is that Of
John Mason, formerly the great dry goods
merchant, whose will was the subject of a
long contest. The will of John Jacob
Astor was proved in April, 1S4S. The
next following in Importance was that of
Daniel Parish, which was closely contested,
and the proceedings which were matters OF
probate fill tour large volumes. The ex.

CURIOUS INCIDENT.
1t is one of the strange illustrations Of
| life's brevity that one of Astor's grand
daughters who attended his funeral should
be buried before the proving of the will in
which she had an Inheritance. Yesterday
the funeral of this woman, Mrs. Chanler,
took place at st. Marks church. Her
father was buried from Trinity chapel a
little more than fortnight previously. st.
Marks is less fashionable than Trinity
chapel, but still is an arislocratic institution.
Its grounds contain the grave of our former
governor, Daniel d. Tompkins, and some
other men of note.
SAD BEREAVEMENT.
The funeral of Mrs. Chanler was an &C.
casion of deep sorrow. She was only 3s,
and leaves 10 small children. The same
disease, pneumonia, carried off father and
daughter. The Astor family has been I'M
usually exempt from mortality for many
years. How strange appear these closely
united deaths | have observed that when
a family has thus escaped death for long
time it is often visited by sudden and fire.
quent mortality. l called yesterday at the
Astor land office on business, and found
everything moving in its usual course. The
death of its late master is not felt, since the
system puruse d here has attained great per-
lection. The general agent, Mr.. Nissan,
has been in service 20 years, and is assisted
by a pair of young men who attend to de-
tails. The Office has been fitted up like q
bank, and has lost that easy old fashioned
look that it had when | first entered 1t.
Here l have talked with William B. Astor
on businesa without the interventions of an
agent, but since then the increase in the es-
tate has led to different system, and the
proprietors are now only reached through
a third person.
HANGING MATTERS.
To-day the triple execution takes place,
being the first of this size ever known in
this city. The gallows was erected yester-
day by the gray-headed mechanic who has
had this duly ever since the Tombs was
built. 1t was this very man who, in his
youth, erected the gallows on which the un-
fortunate John G. Colt would have suffered
had he not anticipated the eXecutiOner by
suicide. The des cripton OF the triple death
scene leave for Others, not caring 10 dis
cuss such matters in detail. There was q
great rush for the dreadful spectacle, and
had it been possible to obtain places by a
fee, $50 would have been paid by a large
number. | was in the sberiffs office when
the arrangements were under way. The
deputies met at the chief offi'e, and went
down to the Tombs in body to attend to
the dreadful duty. These city officials look
like hard drinkers, and the men whom they
put to death were merely farther advanced
in this habit. That three wretches should
settle thor liquor bill in euob u manner
should be lo.son to the young drinkers,
who are so often met by
