TIE GLOBE office. The band are improv-
ing fast under their efficient leader, Mr.. j.
b. Kelley, and bid fair to be one of the
very first musical organizations in the
state.
Our readers will peruse with interest the
half column article in another column from
well known contributor to the columns of
TIE GLOBE in the past, William Porter
Gladly. William is convinced that it is as
useless to try to do business without adyer-
Using as it would be to wink at pretty
girl in the dark, and this he would never
do; no, never.
The celebrated stallion Woodburn Pilot
was sold during the state fsr by j. w.

chased four years ago by the Vermont
stock association from Mr.. Wadsworth OF
Illinois for $4,000, and kept at their stocb
farm near Burlington. For the last two
years he has been kept in Rutland and hit
removal will be great dotrimcnt to The
stock raising interest of the county.
We acknowledge the receipt of one q
those snake cucumbers exhibited at the
county fair The curiosity was accom-
panied by the following note "Mr
Edtor-The enclosed reptile being of {
mild disposition and requiring no specia
care, | venture to ask you to take him. L
he becomes troublesome-pickle him. G
II. Fox" The ''varmint" will be pickle(
at once. Ga the strength of the above en-
dorsement we let him loose, when hI
crawled twice around the sancmm, destroy
ed several cockroaches and made overture
to swallow the editorial shears. He is de
cidedly too ''iuiimidahng' for us.
