WILL DROP HIS FIGHT | LONG STANDING LEGAL ACTION COMES TO END, Quarrel Wag Over Porperty Of Lice Value--Both Men Are Millionaires | And the Case Has Been In the | Courts For About Ten Years. | Watertown, XY, Standard 1 Two millionaires familiar to the residents along the St. Lawrence Riv- | er have ceased fighting after baving been in the courts for about a dec-| ade. Oue case went through to the court, of appeals and another was not'long since decided by the appel-| late division. The defeated party in! the later litigation, it was announ- ced by A.

Rafferty and a little bit of land, or partially submerged rock was all that it started over, ex- cept that personal and petty jealous- les crept in. Both are Pittsburgh ten of wealth. Some idea of the value of the land in its original form| at the time of the transfer can be de- termined from the fact that Raferty| told Peacock he would flip a coin tol see whether he gave him the proper-| ty or whether Peacock paid him $500.

O'Leary of Alexandria Bay to re- form the deed and restrict Peacock from the use of certain of the proper-| ty. Rafferty won in supreme court and so he did in two successive ap peals taken by Peacock, Then Peacock made the = next move, bringing an action to enjoin| Rafferty from interfering with the| boat house and property, which Pea-| Rafferty hav«| ing decided to dump stones, to fill in| on. certain property that he claimed, which it is claimed prevented Pea- cock from getting the benefit of the! boat house | This action was tried before Jus-| tice Crouch, being one of the first! important actions that this justice, had here Justice Crouch decided | he would like to see the property in| question and he went to see it under the protest of Rafferty's attorneys.

In the first ten months of 1913 the United States sent.12,000,000 bush- els of wheat to Germany, aud in the corresponding period of 1915 only 15,000 bushels were sent; but to bal- ance this deficit the wheat export to the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and> Denmark rose from 19,400,000 bushels in 1913 to more than 59,000, 000 bushels last year. Every Ame- rican exporter of wheat knows why theré has been this tremendous in- crease; it is only the Foreign Office that remains in ignorance, The export of other foodstuffs tells the same story Comparing the fig- ures for the first ten months in 1913, when the world was at peace and trade was normal, with those for the corresponding period of last ' year, that is from January 1st to Getober 31st, the latest date to which the fig- ures have heen made up, the falling off in German imports was in every case cvompensated by the increased imports cf her neighbours Thus, in 1913 Germany took in round fig- ures 6,000,000 bushels of maing from this country and only 15,000 bushels last year, but the Danish importa- tions increased from 4,750,000 bush- els to 10,950 000, those of the Neth erlands from 6,900,000 to 11,600, 000, and other neutrals -ip#Peased their importations from 2,160,000 to 6,400,000, Of course, no American exporter ¢an swear that he "sold maize to Germany, but as one ex- porter commented, after looking at the figures: It is simply signifi- cant." In 1913 Germany bought 140,600 barrels of wheat flour in the United States and in 1915 none In 1913 the Netherlands imported 708,000 barrels-and in 19156 1,300,000, Other neutrals increased their importations 709,000 barrels in 1913 to 800,000 barrels last year, Germany's needs for been well taken care of in American purchases were 1,100,000 1b, in 1965 they were 273,000 1b The Netherlands in 1913 purchased, 3,900,000 lb, and in 1915 9,000,000 Ib, and other neutrals increased their importations from 27,000,000 ib., to 82,500,000 1b. No less striking is the increase in the exports of American boots. In 1913 Germany purchased 471,000 pairs in the United States and not a tingle paid in 1915; but neutrals' purchases jumped from 462,000 pairs to 4,800.000. In 1913 1,700,000 bales of cotton were SEnt tb Germany and in 1915 194,000, The exports in the same period to neutrals increased from 53,000 bales to 1,100,000, One of the most startling illustrations is af- forded by motor-cars and parts. Ger- many imports in 1913 were valued at £155,000 and in 1915 at £560. The exports to neutral countries in 1913 had a value of £260,000 which in 1915 rose to £4,000,000 _-- y Don't urge anybody to sow to the wind because the reward comes to your door.

One day the dogs saw some crows flying through the air and began to chase them with their heads high in the air and their tails flying 'straight out behind The crows flew over the pond but the dogs kept right after Them for they knew a few days ago the pond was covered with ice and they supposed it was still there. There had been and the ice was Dottie fell into a | [ thaw however 80 soft that and Donnie a soft, hole Sleepytime Tales went tumbling in after her. It didn't take Donnie a minute to scramble out but poor Dottie got caught un- der the ice and couldn't seem to find the hole to crawl out, So Donnie plunged in again after his playmate, got hold of her with his teeth and was just about to pull her out when Dottie wrigged and fell back into the hole. Again Don- nie went in after her and this time succeeded in bringing her safely out on top of the firm ice, ' Earl thought Donnie was the best End bravest dog he ever knew to save his playmate from drowning He told his school friends all about it and Donnie had more petting than he ever had in his little life.
