is a genial, young man and his courte-
sy and obliging manners towards all
have won him many friends who will
be sorry to have him leave. His place

Milford, n. H., who is already here.
Mr.. Coburn is a registered pharmacist,
having been registered in this state,
and has had several years experience,
working for time in st. Johnsbury,

Hanover, n. H, and during the past
year and half in Boston.
The following Rondeau was written
by E. E. Webster of this village, and
as Admiral Dewey will visit Vermont
in few months, seems very apprOpri-
ate:
When Dewey comes from foreign lands,
Let martial strains be played by bands,
In honor of that victory
Which caused the sluggish Dons to see
The force of Uncle Sans commands.
Remember, near Manila strands,
The Spanish feet sunk on the sands
And raise a rousing jubilee
When Dewey comes.
AS long as old Mount Mansfield stands,
Will praises rise and plauding hands,
For Vermont's son, who, on the sea
Made her name famed eternaly
Observe how proud Vermont expands,
When Dewey comes

The base ball boys added another
to their list of victories last Wed
nesday, when they defeated the New
port Center team on the driving park
at Newport. The features of the game
were the difficult catches by Stiles,
Cole and Gokey, and the home runs
by Stiles and Hitchcock, that of the
latter being made from the cleanest
hit of the season, ball passing direct
over the head of the center fielder.
Sutton did remarkably we'll at catch
ing in that he had badly injured hand.
He allowed only two stolen bases
while our boys succeeded in stealing
nineteen bases on their opponents.
The boys have not lost league game
thus far and it seems safe prediction
to say that they will win the prize.
The following is the score
