ifs land it again formed into chan
mel, and emptied into a stream called
Beaver creek. AS it is impossible to
cultivate cranberrieS without a supply
of living water, the natural water sup
ply to plaintiffs land was a matter o.

lying upon it's permanent character, he
expended large amounts of money i'm

Later, under act of the legislature,
canal was constructed absorbing tile
water supply, and this finally came
into the hands of the defendants, who
refused to supply the plaintiff. Tie
court gave judgment for the plaintiff
for damages and an injunction COM
nanding the defendants to restore the
water to him. From this judgment the
defendants appealed. The case was
argued in the supreme court by r. N.
La Toilette and c. E. Roe for plaintiff,
and Bushnell, Rogers & Hall for the
defendants. The presentation of the
case in the supreme court occupied
nearly two days, and the examination
of the law and facts necessary to reach
a decision in the case has entailed
very large amount of work upon the
supreme court. The supreme court now
reverses the decision of the lower
court, Chief Justice Cassoday and JUS

GUARD UNDER THE BAN.
Inyidtous Distinctions the Result
of Uniforms In Schools.


NEW YORK, Sept, 2S, The Ameri-
can Guard, which is composed of uni
formed school boys, has come under
the disapproval of the board of edu->
cation. Individiousi :, distinctions, it
seems, have been made IN the schools
between the boys with blue coats and
brass buttons and the boys who could
not drill because their parents could
not afford to buy them uniforms. The
board of education, while it has not
forbidden the pupils of the public
school to join the guards, has .prac-
tically discouraged the work of the or
ganiZation. At every great parade in
the last two years there have been
school boys, dressed in regulation ia
tigue uniform and carrying muskets
lent to them by the state. They be-
longed to the American Guard. The
organization was started at the sug-
gestion of several old soldiers. At the
dedication of the Grant monument
there were several companies of young
sters in uniform They belonged to the
American Guard There were also chill
dren clad in ordinary school clothes
and some Of them even plainly dressed
who also marched in military forna-
ton. The uniformed boys held back
as if to keep aloof from those in CT
william attire. The board of education
points to this incident as one example
of the results of having a uniformed
rank.
I'VE take the position" said Assist
ant Superintendent Farrell that we
do not need to officially sanction the
American Guard The uniform CUES
ton has resulted in much unpleasant
feeling and it has been a nuisance.
Tt has led to parents, who cannot at
ford it, being obliged to buy uniforms

the conditions were just right, but
there was an unfayorable circumstance
connected with both the Star Pointer

Pointer and Patchen Pointer broke his
harness in the second heat. In steady
ing him McClary had to pull hard on
Pointers liberated tooth that has trou-
bled him much of late A change from
link to snaffie bit was made today, but
the horse showed plainly that his
mouth troubled him. He got away
slow and fearing to hurt his mouth,
McClary drove him wide of the pole.
From the half on he was squared away,
doing the third quarter in 2S seconds
and the last half in 5824 seconds.
Patchen was fit for the race of his
life today, but the pacemalzer failed to
come up fast enough, and the first and
second quarters We're seen to be slower
than Patchen could go. He came the
last half in 5sA seconds, lowering mis-
record a quarter Of a second, and fin
ished strong and we'll within himself.

SOLD TO A SYNDICATE.
Five Millions Paid fer ROssInnd
Gold Mine.

SPOKANE, Wash, Sept 2S.-The
sale of the big LIE Roi gold mine at
Rossland is said to be an assured fact
at last An offer has been made of
100000 by an English syndicate and
will be accepted by the owners of the
property Gel Peyton and Senator
George Turner, the two heaviest stock
holders in the mine, leave tomorrow for
London, England, and will consun-
mate the deal. The mine has paid
about 100000 in it's brief career. It
was discovered in 1892 and began divi
dend paying in October, 1894 The past
two or three months it has paid $4,000
a month, and will increase this rate as
soon as its own smelter is ready for
operation. It has cash in hand for two
or three more dividends. 1t cost the
present owners practically nothing, and
a great share of its stock was original
ly traded for an old horse
Possible complications with the do
minion government over the export OF
ores to it's smelter located at North
port, Oh the American side of the line,
have doubtless had something to do
with the willingness to sell. The COM
pany has given no option on its mine,
but several English experts have just
concluded minute examination of the
property, resulting in this offer at the
figure the owners had placed on the
mine
