The New York World has Wipsted correspondent with an active imagina- tion, as the following from the World will show: That music hath charms even for the animal was proved in Newtown, Wednesday, where 8 wagon containing piano became stalled in mud. After having sank up to the hub in the mire the horses and men could not budge the load. Selectman Peck, who was at work nearby, was summoned by Josiah Tilson, owner of the team. Peck is pianist, and after uncovering the keys of the instrument and having had blanks laid close to the wheels, he struck up a lively ragtime tune, which started the horses. He didn't cease playing until the mud bound load had been released.
 A part of the above is correct. MI Ttlson's team did get stuck in the mud, and MT Peck and men assisted MT Tilson in getting out of his trouble, but as the plano was boxed up and Ml Peck does not know one note from an. other, it will cause 8 laugh on the part of MT Peek and his friends.
