During the nearly 30 years in which her
husband had been town clerk of Newfane,
Mrs. Dickinson had made a special study
of our town records and traditions of
early days, and her retentive memory
made her highly valued authority in all
local matters pertaining to the past. In
this respect, also as a neghbor and in
church circles she will be greatly missed
In relation TO her home life it can be said
that the large number of persons who have
been employed on the Dickinson farm all

this village from its earliest days The

The general rule is. that as between

lation to the statute of frauds. This rule
does not operate against subsequent bona
fide purchasers. attaching creditors with
out notice, and others standing in like
relation. As against them there must be
delivery of the property sold. Where the
same goods are sold to two different pur-
chasers by conveyances equally valid, he
who first lawfully acquired possession
will hold then against the other

manned in the vendors possession till the

BRIGHT PROSPECTS.
Outlook for Encampment En-
couraging All Around.
Both Of the Regiments Will Turn
Out Many Men.
Possibility Of Mock Battle on the Programme
General Orders.

These are busy times about the Office
of Adjutant General Richards He is
dividing his time between attending t.
the detail of the office and the detail ul
the camp. which latter, now that tbs
tents have been erected, the buildings
all moved to the places they will have
part of the week, looks very much like
the scene of war.
Lieutenant G.. G. Morton has been
appointed by the adjutant general 10
take immediate charge of the camp
preparations. Lieutenant Morton is
devoting much time to the work ana
his experience as an officer of the
United States army has made him well
fitted for attending to the many de-
tails
There is a plan in the air that is be-
ing talked of ever so lightly for having
battle all but the bullets
Col. Kendall, the officer who is to
have immediate command of the camp,
has suggested that it might be a de-
parture that would be enjoyed by
everyone, and a matter of profit to the
men, to have the First Regiment pitch
into the Second. The plan would be to
have the Second defend the camp
against the smoky onslaught of the
First.
The latter previous to the assault,
according to the talked-of-eas plans.
would march off, and lose itself some
| where. Then, when the time came for
the attack. the sortie would take place.
There is much interest taken in thu
means assured.
| General Richards facetiously remarks
that the camp is $50 wen fortified 10y
fields and potato patches that
really the idea of having a battle is OUT
of the question" The said fields and
patches, be it understood are worth Il
considerable amount of money. Let
| the First or any other regiment out in
amongst the crops if for no more than
TO pass by that way, and destruction
would follow in its wake. 1t was not
thus in 81 to 60, but times have
changed, and now soldiers do not ID
such things without paying for the
| fiddler.
| But if it can be arranged satiSfac-
| torily, everybody hopes something il
| that line will be done as it would be
| great sport for all.

STASEL AND KARL COMMITTED.
Alderman Miller Held Each Under
$500 TO- Burglary.

The fifth man, in the FELTON, burg
larry Leroy Karl by name, was
brought to this city at noon yesterday
from Elmira by Detective John w.
Moir. Both he and Miles Stacey or
"Stasel" as he chooses to give his name
were arraigncd before Alderman Millar
and were committed forthwith to the
county Jail i'm default of $500 bail to
answer the charge at court.
Stasel still claims innocence; Karl
admits that he participated in robbery.
Both men are clever i'm their business s.
When Stasel was being taken to the
county Jail yesterday afternoon he en-
tered the sergeants room at police
headquarters as a partner-in-hand-
cuffs with A. j. sullivan the young
man arrested for assaulting George
l.. Dickson on Lackawanna avenue
Saturday. Stasel stood for a minute
in the doorway. He wore good cloth
ing, was cleaned shaved, and a derby
hat was on his head. He stood for
a minute, his bright eyes taking in
the Office occupants. Then as if recol-
lecting his manners he quickly took off
his hat, nudged sullivan to do likewise,
"choked" his cigarette and put the
butt end in his vest pocket for future
use.
The patrol wagon which had Stasel
as a patron had seven other men, most
ly plain drunks. Karl was given a
hearing later in the afternoon,

and Salvatore Nalcn2enc are still
whacking away at each other through

happening on the second day of No

The root of the disturbance was made
a part of The Tribune's election day
story. Kane, it is said, created a dis
turbance a. the booth i'm his district
Two special officers, both Italians. ar
rested him and were taking the pris-
Orer on a street car to the Jail at the
town hall when Michael Kane, a six
foot son of the prisoner, boarded the
car and rescued his parent, despite the
cNertions Of the two specials
one Of these officers was Nalenzenc
He caused the elder Kane's arrest for
assault and Justice Of the Peace Cooney
placed the bail at $500. Kane wanted
to retaliate, so he swore out n warrant,
charging Nalcn2ene with threats. Kane
tells Il story that the special officer
tried to pass for voting a man under
age. Kane challenged the vote and
succeeded in battling Valenzcne.
For this, Kane says, the special Off
Ger threatened to kill him ana placed
an insinuating hand on his hip pocket.
Kane first sWOre out a warrant before
Squire CoOney, charging threats, but,
he says, though he twice went to the
'sIuire's office to appear against Val

charging threats. NalenZcne went be-
fore Squire Coonoy and entered bail in
