The foregoing dispatch from Toron.
to, Ontario, under date of February
25th, opens up new field in the al
ready greatly complicated litigation,
which for more than Ten years has
been carried on in the Canadian and
American courts between II. Il. Payne
and his administrator, Stevenson
Burke, and the executors Of Cornell's
estate OH the one side. and $. j.
Rltehie on the other side, and it be-
comes matter of considerable local
interest. The Supreme Court of Ohio
has just decided in the opinion which
we published a few days ago, that the
stocks Of the Canadian Copper com
pany and the Anglo American Iron
company are taxable I'm the hands of
individual owners, owing to the fact
that the officers of these corporations
refused TO make returns of the prop
erty OF the companies in the names of
the corporations since the organlza-
tion Of the companies in 1856, and we
are informed that the tax inquisitors
are now after Judge Burke and
Payne's estate for something like
S3O0,0OO each of unpaid back taxes.
In addition to this the Canadian gov
ernment, as will he seen by this dis
patch, now comes forward and sues
Payne's estate for about 100000 for
what Is known in Canada as "succes-
sion duties" or n tax upon an estate
owning property in Canada, whether
the deceased owner was a citizen of
Ontario or lived In some other coun-
try Rltchie claims the ownership of
the securities upon which the Cana
dian government are seeking to collect
this tax from Payne's estate. The
whole situation as between Paync's
estate, Cornells estate Stevenson
Burke, and $. j. Ritchic, and as be-
tween the corporations claiming rights
In both countries, and as between the
courts of the two countries Is one of
the most complicated, IL not altogether
the most complicated, known to either
country, and this advent of the On
tario government upon the scene
makes the situation still more com
plicated. Payne's administrator only
took out letters of administration in
Canada in March, 1901, and he return
ed TO the Canadian government the
entire holdings of the estate in Canada
subject to Succession duties" at only
$20,00o, while from this dispatch 1t
appears that the Ontario government
has placed II valuation upon them of
$3,9S7, PAS.

SATISFIED COAL MINERS.

It is encouraging to learn that some
of the coal miners are satisfied with
present conditions and wages, and are
not inclined to engage in even a SYM
pathetic strike. w. l.. A. Johnson. sec
rotary of the Kansas state society of
labor, says there is not the least prob
ability that the Kansas miners will
strike out of sympathy for the eastern
miners. The Kansas miners have just
signed the annual agreement and have
gone to work contented," he declared,
and he added:
There are twenty Kansas counties
in which coal is mined and 1000 men
find employment in the mines. Ninety
per cent of the mines are in the four
counties Of Leavenworth, Usage Cher
okee and Crawford. The miners are
satisfied. They are making good wages

The Last Fly Of Summer

TITS the last fly of summer
Left buzzing alone
All its ravenous companions
Have fattened and flown;
Each one of its species,
Unmourned and forgot
Has fitted away to
Some pestilent spot.
Through summers glad sunshine
Twas with us for aye,
1t has swu,n in the cream jug
And sampled the pie;
Then when stated at last
1t has chosen to skate
With fiendish delight on
Some bald, shiny pate.
In palace or hovel
Twas never at rest,
At banquet and picnic
An unwelcome guest,
How gleeful its buzzinS
How joyous it rang
When bearing disease on
Its germ laden fang!
I'll not leave thee, thou last one.
To winters chill gloom,
AS thy comrades have vanished.
Go thou to thy doom,
No mercy I'll show thee,
To me It's but fun
To end thy existence,
So-bang! But it's gone!

There is plenty Of anthracite coal at

statement made by representative of
an eastern stove company in Minneap-
oils Tuesday. He said: There was
more coal shipped to Duluth, West SUI
perior and Milwaukee this year than
for many seasons. The coal concerns
have plenty of it at Superior and Du-
1luth, and at Milwaukee the docks are
breaking down with it. If you press

they have. some coal, but it is to fill
contracts and they can not sell 1t. They

crop has never been sown under more

NEAT FARM IMPROVEMENTS.

IClarl1lQa feFalu.J
Only a decade ago the farmers Of
Page county were compelled, when they
made walks Of any kind around their
premises, to make them Of planks or
cinders, but now they are able to have
beautiful cement walks just the same
as adorn the residence properties IN
town. If a person wishing to see some
of our fine farms will take a buggy ride
out north of town, he can not help but
be surprised at the beautiful appear
ance of the farms all along the road.
The fences are all kept in excellent
conditions. the roads are clear of weeds
and everything indicates that the farm
ers take pride in having things looking
we'll Mr.. Frank Otte, living in the
German settlement, has just completed
some fine cement walks around and
about his house and the improvement
in the looks of the place is very notice
able. Mr.. Otte is one of Page cOunty's
most prosperous farmers and is taking
advantage of the good times we are
having to improve his already beautiful
farm This is only one of the numerous
farms that are being made more pleas
ant and comfortable by initiating city
ideas. The farmers of Page county
were never in such prosperous con-
dition as at the present time. Instead
of having one barn. they have two, and
in place of the old house they are
building new ones. Such is the condi-
tion Of Page county farms.

Mosquitoes and Matrimony.

One divorce to seven marriages was
the record in Indiana for the year
ending June 80, 1902. This remarkable
ratio of conjugal mishaps throws the
sociologist back on the theory that the
mosquitoes that are kept SO busy in the
Hoosier state peddling malarial poison
are also engaged in diffusing the germs
OF marital infelicity
