mornings GLOBE that he had great bar

that THE GLOBE is the beat medium for
our merchants to advertise their wares in.
No other paper contained this advertise
ment NuG ced.
We will admit that there are some lastly
arranged show windows on Merchants
row, but we shall have to credit Mr.. Ii. ID.
Stevens with having perhaps the handsom-
est and most attractive one, and in which
the most good taste is displayed in the ar
rangement of the articles, Of any on the
street. This is undoubtedly owing to its
being the work of ladies experienced in the
business. Mr.. Stevens has an advertise
ment in to-day's GLOBE which our lady
readers will find Of interest.
To-day the great centennial opens, and
also, what is of more interest to Rutland
people, the Inauguration ball at Baxter
music hall comes off this evening. We
may none of us 90 to the centennial, but to
the ball we can go, and most of us are
going. A chance to dance in the beautiful
Baxter hall, and after the strains OF Aus
tins tenth regiment band, is something
that isn't TO be had for the asking every day
in the week. Then, too, the weather will
soon be so warm that dancing will be bur
den instead of delight, and this will pro
badly be the last ball Of the season. Every
one who enjoys dancing should be, and
probably will be present, to participate in
the pleasurable occasion.
