lutely nothing in the report that the commit

"Hey. old man Porter. you'll DO buying .
new COW soon. won't you?
Get out. you leetle devil" replied Miles
Porter. O milk dealer at Mosholu. near Yon-
kers.
The first speaker was the young nephew OF
his hated rival in the milk trade Of that COM
munity. Mrs. Kate Mackin. The boy yelled
again:
Don't you want to buy n now cow"
Porter logged home. When he entered his
COW stable he found his finest milk COW
lying dead with q great pool OF clotted blood
under her head. Her throat had been cut.
Then the Old man rememtercd the boys ques-
tions and his mind bccame fixed as to their
import. ..
For months II spirit of bitter rivalry had eX-
listed between them. which had resulted about
three weeks before in open hoStilitins. Porter
had reduced the price OF. his. milk from seven
ccnts to six cents ~ mart. This Ind caused II
run on r"rtcr's milk wagon. His supply
former patrons of his enemy. while Mrs.
Mackin's milk. became "a drug on the market.
She finally had TO reduce her prices. too. The
more Porter thought the deeper became his
conviction that Mrs. Mackin had murdered his
COW. and he at last had her arrested. She was
slt to tlie fouk erS Police Court yesterday.
She vigorously denied the accusation. There
was no evidence to convict her. but she was
put under bonds to keep the peace.

She is II keel boat out md out. and there Is
no sign OF any ccntreboard well In her.
Inc deepest part OF the boat is at the heel OF

inches in less than A feet. The midship Sec
