Our neighbors at CORTLAND station
are in state of agitation because one
of their citizens has gone to work and
fenced up the road leading into the
village from the southeast. The road
in question has been trav eled for many
years, but has never properly been laid
out as highway, it appears. The
Courtland villagers can now only be
reached from the southeast through
a very narrow lane, over private
ground, and as the bulk of trade comes
from that direction the people are ne
cessarily considerably concerned. The
matter has been referred to the At

A Royal Cow.

Mrs. Samuel M. Shoemaker, says the
Baltimore Sun, has lost by death from in
famation Of the lungs the world renowned
cow Princess Second, which astonished the
world by giving in seven days a yield OF
forty-six pounds and ten and half ounces
OF butter. This test of her butter qualities
was completed April 10, 1885. Some time
after the tests the blankets were taken off
rather suddenly, it is thought, and she took
q cold, from which she never recovered.
She was q magnificent animal OF great
vitality and force, as well as a fine butter
producer. One Of the secrets of herimmense
yields OF butter was her great vitality
and appetite. During the very height OF
the test, when she was fed as large
quantities of butter-producing food as
it was thought she could safely BEAR she
broke loose one night and consumed over
200 pounds OF prepared food in a box in the
stable. About two years ago Mrs. Shoe
maker refused $25, 900 former. She was s
years and six months old when she died.
She was an imported COW, and was bought
at auction in New York for 81, 500. She
Was at the celebrated Coomasse strain.
Her first calf was sold during an absence
from home OF Mrs. Shoemaker for $40, 900,
but the sale did not stand, Mrs. Shoemaker
refusing to ratify it on her return.
While the Burnside Park Jersey herd has
sustained great loss in the death OF Princess
Second, it is thought her place will be more
than filled by a noble COW Of grand ply
sique OF the same strain. This animal,
Oxford Kate, a near relative OF Princess
Second has already a record OF thirty nine
pounds twelve ounces OF butter in seven
days, which is already second to Princess
Second, and as she has never been pushed,
it is believed she can beat the foremost rec
ord. The father OF this COW sold for SIS, $50.
All the Burnside herd are in fine condition.

1t is stated on what appears to be
good authority that the Oklahoma
boomers have at last dispersed and
will no longer remain in camp. This
action on their part is largely the re-
suit OF the action of the administra-
ton concerning the issue of leases and
occupancy of the cattle syndicates in
the Indian Territory. The proclama-
ton OF the President meets with uni
versal favor mongthe people and has
inspired the greatest confidence, since
it is evident that the administration
intends to deal with equal fairness by
all classes of people, and he feels as
sured that there will be no further
trouble on the border of the Indian Ter
ritory. tits reported that the admins
