of the former were scarlet and the white
kernels set in red bulls. The latter was
a deep orange colored ear, accompanied
with peculiar though not objection
able flavor.
A distinct type of extra early sweet
corn is found in the four varieties,
Eastman's Early, First of All, Early
Fordhook and White Cob. These are
all very early, sweet, eight rowed,
well filled and of fair size.
The Extra Early Beverly was the only
extra early 1912 row variety of good
quality. Crosby's Early, although not
as early as the earliest by few days,
still remains the standard early variety.

An Incident in Potsdam whsn the Log
- Drivers Had Been Paid on.
sWhen the freshets swell the Adiron-
dack rivers they carry northward mil
lions of feet of lumber in the shape OF
thirteen-foot logs, freshly cut and
clothed in bark at the outset, splinter
ed and stripped for the most part when
they reach the sorting boom of some
mill town in the ST. Lawrence Valley.
Often for miles one can scarcely see the
surface of the river, nothing but a
stretch of restless. fidgeting nudging
logs. That is the big drive and the
men who wait on the caprices of these
logs from the mountain slope to mill
pond are the "river drivers
Some fifty of theae river drivers were
paid off in PotsdaIi village on Satur-
day night. Within two hours the

with that comprehensive happiness
that comes to an Irishman in the first

yelled:

With yell the gang surged forward
against the nearest shanty. There
was a shattering of windowpanes, and
the crazy door, hastily barricaded with
household furniture, was giving at the
hinges, when Antoine Laduke came
around the corner. He was Canadian
blacksmith, only FIVE feet four in his
stockings, but with muscles that stood
out like twisted cables on arm and
thigh and shoulder. AS he caught the
meaning of the tumult he stopped, lift
ed from the neglected sidewalk IA huge,
fiat slab of red sandstone and broke
into a trot. He went through that
bowling mass like a cyclone through
the woods When he had moved one
swath he turned to repeat the pro-
cess but there was no need.
Next day PotsdaI was full of shaggy
men in red shirts with their heads tied
up, looking for Antoine Laduke, in
sincere desire to treat" him as long as
he would be treated or the remnant of
their pay held out.

Chicago, Oct. 3l.-An injunction and
an improvised wreck yesterday brought
to sudden stop the work of laying
the tracks of the General Electric rail
way on Polk street south of Four
teenth, which was started Saturday
midnight. On the petition Of the Chi
cago and Western Indiana railroad
Judge Payne yesterday issued tenn
porary injunction restraining the con-
struction company from proceeding
with the work, which had been finished
to the Fourteenth street crossing of
the Chicago and Western Indiana.
Previous to this, however, the rail-
road officials had run four cars loaded
with coal and Ice at great speed into
the Grand Trunk warehouse at the dis
puted crossing. completely wreckins
the cars and tearing big hole in the
building, but also preventing any fur
ther progress in the work of preparing
the street car crossing. With the in
junction a squad Of policemen were
sent to prevent the construction COM
pany from removing the distractions.
Measures will at once be taken by
the General Electric company to have
the injunction set aside. The fran
chise for building an underground cleo
trio system on the south side was
granted the General Electric company
by the oity council In 1896. Tho fran
chise was bitterly fought in the courts.
1t being alleged that questionable
methods were used both in securing
right Of way and in getting the fran
chise through council.
