 The circuit court of the United States
 yesterday, in dismissing the bill for 1 an accounting and injunction brought Dy the Foster Co. against the Thom as r. Taylor Co. of Bridgeport. and he dlrects that costs be taxed in favor
 of the Bridgeport co. Ella roster Young was the inventor or an lmproveemnt in a combined ab- domlnal pad and hose supporter and

 covering the invention, were erantaS

 operate under the Young patent
 ana In prior action in the court
 there was an allegation that he had lost his right of license for his failure
 lo pay royalties on time, but Judge Piatt round against that claim and ms decision was sustained by the peals
 Subsequently MT. Taylor changed the character of his business from that Of a co-partnership to a corpor- | atlon, but he retained his personal Ii- cense under the Young patent. The roster Hose Supporter Company made the claim, that because of the change Tn the character of the business. Mir Iaylor's right to operate under the license had ceased. AS to this point Judge ,Platt says:
 Fhe only difference was that MT. Iaylor, by his acts, had fortified and strengthened his financial position at nome and abroad. This evidence of 1ls sagacity explains to a large de- gree the reason for personal conf ience which the licensor reposed in [: llm, and ought to have brought from . complainant congratulation rather nan embarrassment The long and mort of it is that /this is the sec ma attempt of the complainant to Vold license agreement, which. wing 10 the changing fortunes of pa- ent litigation respecting the Young atent. has become to the complainant n unwelcome asset.

 A social for the benefit of the Ridge

 The program includes dancing and the
 proceeds will be used for redecorating

 About 2,500 feet of the Ridge road
 remains to be gravelled, the last pro- cess of the construction work. and completion of the job is expected within few days. The Ridge folks al are getting used. although by no pitch on one fork of Giles hili. but others who go over it for the first time are inclined to heated comments and ask if the outrage is to be per manent.
