 A horse owned by Farmer Gladwin of Cheshire seemed to be the biggest duck in the puddle Many brushes were engaged in by him with men who have horses noted for the speed and he easily distanced large number of them and would then look about in most aggrayating manner and tell them to come on.' None of them seemed to come. however, and the farmer had things pretty much his own way.

voted young wife, his little son

to their last resting place this af-
teraoon. A sister, Mrs. Frank

merly of Sistersville, was present
at the funeral. AR. Sayre resid.

A number of Cheyenne people have

The plans for the enterprise are
as yet very incomplete, the matter
having been only discussed by some
of the local sportsmen.
Such a club would undoubtedly be
very popular as the site of the new
reservoir is an ideal one for a coun-

spend a day or more hunting and fish

Havana. Feb. 27.-The lapsilg of the
Isle of Pines treaty on account of its
not being ratified within the time limit,
is regarded here to be mainly due to
the fact that the state department at
Washington did not call attention to
die matter. 1t would also appear. how
ever. that the Cuban state department
failed to remember this time limit.
The treaty was signed in Havana July
?, 1903. and was ratified by the Cuban
senate on July 16, since when 1t has
been pending in the United States sen
ate. The last condition of the treaty
was to the effect that the notifications
be exchanged in Washington within
seven months of the date of signing.
Persons interested in securing Amer
lean sovereignty for the Isle of Pines
are jubilant at this development, con
sldering it to be a setback, which gives
additional promise for the defeat of the
proposition that the island remain
