AN EXCITING HORSE TROT. Last Friday occurred the most ex- citing horse trOt on the ice Lake War amaug has seen in years The race started over friendly bet of S1OO be- tween A. M. Booth and James Marsh that w. c. Beeman's "Willow B" or
 "Kansas Boy," could beat Booths horse, Country Guy.'' MT Booth quickly took up the bet with the pro- viso that the horse should be driven by Harry BruSie of Hartford, who trained the horse: A good crowd of w. c. Hopkins acted as starter, Charles Duncan as judge, while Frank Evitts did the honors as stake holder. MT Beeman first brought out "Willow B. and the horses were driven up to make the trip down once for fun. "Guy" stepped right away from "Wil- low B'' on the informal trial. The horses were then driven up to the starting point for the race. Brusie sent Guy at so fast a clip that "Willow B" could not touch her, and one foot quite badly and was drawn from the race. Mr Beeman then brought out "Kansas Boy" to beat ''Guy" and to go against time. "Kan- sas Boy" stepped the half in 1.094, but "Country Guy' was an easy winner at 1.OSa. MT Brusie offered to bet he could step the horse down in 1.O5.
 'Kansas Boy" and "Ravena Wilkes," the latter owned by Hubert Thomas, were raced for small purse, the for mer winning. MT Thomas drew his horse after the first heat. "Achamar" and Bay Baron" also had a little h. <,f hnr men. Altogether it was an exciting day for the horsemen. It is said quite large amount in side bets changed hands.

TOBACCO CLAIMS DIsALLOwED.-DE-
 TO TOBACCO GROWERS.
 The commissioners on the estate of William Schoverling of New Milford have disallowed all but one of the 30 claims which had been presented against the estate by tobacco growers of the HouSatonic Valley. The claims grew out of the agreement of MT Schoverling, the deceased, to buy the tobacco crops of the claimants. After MT Schoverling died his widow refused to accept the crops, claiming that the sale was not complete. The tobacco growers claimed that as MT Schover- ling had sprayed their tobacco while it was standing in the field and as he had assumed all risks, the tobacco in some instances being damaged by the spraying, the sale was complete and bound MT Schoverling's estate. The claims were contested and five days were occupied in the hearing before the commissioners. States Attorney Donald T. Warner of Salisbury and Judge Addis of New Milford represent ed the tobacco growers and Brewster, Davis & Ives of Danbury represented the estate. The cases have been watched with interest by the tobacco growers in the vicinity and will prob ably go the higher courts as many in- teresting questions of law are raised. Attorneys Addis and Warner, counsel for the farmers, have filed notice of appeal.
