WEEND LITIGATION OVER HOUSE !An Agreement Entered Into by All Parties, All of the litigation between Orrin |S. DeWitt of Syracuse, nephew of the {late Colonel Orrin G. Staples of | Washington and Alexandria Bay, | Mrs. Cecelia K. Staples McCormick and John W. Childress, executors of | the Staples estate, and William H land Island House, a part of the Sta- | ples estate at Alexandria Bay, has | been ended by an agreement entered {into among Mr. DeWitt, the executors {and Mr. Warburton. The actions {started by Mr. DeWitt sought recov- jery of about $100,000 in damages {and rentals. The settlement agreement provides | that the five per cent. difference in | the gross receipts between the De- Witt lease and the Warburton lease {shall be divided between the Staples | estate and Mr. DeWitt equally, which {means that the estate instead of re- | ceiving 15 per cent. as now will re- iceive 12 1-2 per cent and Mr. De- | Witt will receive two and one-half | per cent. from now until the lease terminates.

THE FARMERS COMPLAIN, Showing Stunted Growth This Weather, The farmers of this district are | complaining about the extremely dry weather, the effect-is beginning to be shown in stunted growth of grain which needs rain to fill out the heads, The corn, too, while doing best dur- ing hot weather, is not heading out owing to the prolonged heat, and while there is a good height of stalk rain is badly needed to bring it to prcper maturity. Hay is a failure in many localities and this is reflect. ed in the advance in price from $14 to $24 for baled No. 1 bay. Tkis is quite a jump in the price of hay at this sqason, and the dairy farmers ave looking forward mainly to the corn crop now for silage feeding dur- ing the coming winter, eee The Grain is Given a Surprise. | At the diamond anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bennett, Madoc Junction, a surprise was given the guests when Mr. Alvin C. White and Miss Florence L. Lyons, Toronto, were united in marriage by the un- cle of the groom, Rev. T. Porter Eennett, Sydney, Nebraska, assisted by Rev. George McQuade, West Hun- tingdon. The bride and groom were assisted by the grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. E Bennett, the bride and groom of sixty years ago. ---- Has Doné Good Decorating. E. Dunphy, painter and decorator, has just completed two artistic shop fronts, "The Club," Mr. Reeves' shop, and Warwick Bros., now con- ducted by Collier. Mr. Dunphy has here shown conspicuous ability, both in design and execution, Both sam- ples represent marble, one being green and the other red, and present a beautiful appearance. Mr. Dunphy was also employed to do the marbel- izing in the interior decoration of the city memorial hall. -- - To aid men to carry heavy burdens on their Jacks an Englishman has in- vented pneumatic shoulder pads, the air they contain being equalized by a central 'reservoir. ~ New couplings have been invented that are said to be so flexible that shafting can be run in any direction and at any angle.

Halifax has re- opened, also Toronto, Ottawa and Winnipeg, but Vancouver remains closed. Home teaching continues |and field workers move in all the dis- tricts as far as possible. Toronto has 580 blind registered with the Institute out of 1,500 ior Ontario. The total blind for the do- minion registered with the institute is 3,615. The prevention of blind- ress work progresses steadily follo®- ing the establishment of sight saving classes in Toronto.
