1t will be of interest to our readers
to know something of the early history
of our county fair. There were a
number of years when the fair at
Craftsbury was actually the big county
fair and in fact the only big fair in
northern Vermont. The following is
taken from the independent Standard
now the Monitor, county paper first
printed in Irasburg and later brought
to Barton by it's publisher. E. A.
Earle. From the Independent. issued
Friday. Sept. q, 1867, we read:
1.-THE first annual exhibition of the
Orleans County Agricultural society
reorganized Aug. 81. 1867-to be held
at the old fair grounds in Barton Land
ing on Oct 8. 1857 The paper then
goes on to give the officers of the new
association and the committees. I'm
der date of Oct. II the issue after the
fair, the Independent Standard has the
following: 1.-The fair Tuesday, Oct. 8,
was decided success. 1t was the best
fair by all odds that we have ever held
in the county-unless we except that
held at Craftsbury-ands such was the
expression made by everyone. The
show of cattle and horses was large
and when we say that Cleveland's and
Randall's Durhams and Thomas Ba-
ker's Dutch cattle were there it is
needless to say they were good ones.
The show of vegetables was large and
there were the best specimens we ever
saw. The state fair presented none
better" The paper then goes on to
give a list of premiums and winners.
"There were 427 entries without
going into floral hall where there We're
$50 m0re.'
Il may be of interest to note some of
the exhibits and premium winners on
articles that our present generation
never see at fair.
Best Bee Hive-E. G. Baker, Brown
ington. Best Thin Boots-A. C. Par
ker, Barton. Best Thick Boots-O.
French. Glover. Best 10 yards carpet,
ing-Mrs. VIM. Wiley, Barton. Best
10 yards frocking-Mrs. M. Levins,

This was the commencement of the
new organization. but we do not fine

Vermont Notes.

A fire that is tn0ught to have started
from a match OF cigar stub carelessly
thrown into some waste papers, swept
up the rear stairway at the John W.
Gordon block at Barre and caused dam
age to the amount of $4,000, large
part of which is due to smoke and wa
ter. A great quantity of water had to
be thrown on the building as the fire
had secured considerable headway be-
lore being discovered at l :03 a. M,
Firemen choked the blaze by getting on

kAlsER's VICTORIOUS RAID
ON ENGLISH COAS'

London.A powerful German feet

fence which had made the coast of
England inviolate for centuries, bonn
barded the cities of Scarborough,
Hartlepool and Whitby, on the York
shire coast, $40 miles from Helgo-
land, killed nearly fifty civilians and
soldiers and wounded hundreds, de-
stroyed an immense amount of prop
erty and escaped to sea.
There is fear that an invasion will
be attempted, but there lis more reason
to believe that the devastating raid
was the first stroke OF a great coup
which Germany, it Is positively
known, has been planning for weeks
a concerted rush OF battle cruisers
and dreadnoughts from Helgoland and
the mouth of the Elbe, and an attempt
to ruin British commerce on the Allan
tic before their inevitable destruction
by the superior British Heet.
The squadron that shelled the York
shire coast escaped practically UNI

followed the frantic alarms and APP
peals by wireless. and that drew Eng

Forth, from Aberdeen, from the mouth
Of the Thames and from their stations
at sea, could not catch up or cut on
the fast steaming raiders. The Ger

Nearly four hundred casualties.
elghty-three killed and approximately
three hundred wounded. are the last
figures of the results Of the German
raid on the east coast. Only seven
killed and fourteen wounded were sol

proportion was women and children

formed In the war. amazing in its dar-
