Alah Line Canal controvetr.

Palisade.-In an effort to prevent
costly litigation to the people and the
government in the building of the High
Line canal in the Grand valley, Unit
ed States District Attorney Thomas
ward Jr., has prepared to cali con-
ference with the various owners Of
water rights in the Palisade and
Grand Junction districts, which will
he held either in Denver or Grand
Junction within the near future.
This action was decided upon by Mr..
Ward after receiving notice from
Washington to effect settlementwith
the water users, If possible. Over a
week ago Referee Guy Sternberg, who
was appointed to adjudicate the differ
ences between the government and
water owners, decided the Reclama-
ton Service was only entitled to water
rights from the time it began actual
work on the High Line, in 1903. The
government contended its rights dated
back to 1902.
This decision failed to give the gov
ernment sufficient water to operate its
canal, and May was the day Bet for
arguing the matter before District
Judge Shackelford OF Grand Junction
Now It is hoped to offer terms oi set
tlement to the power companies near
Palisade who hold large part fof the
Grand river water rights, and Secure
sufficient water to permit work to go

There is nothing more charming than

WEST WINTERPORT.

A near-tragedy occurred at Pine Grove
Farm last Friday evening at twilight,
when little Daniel and Donald Dyer,
aged and 9 respectively, while on an
imaginary deer hunt, ventured too near
the brink of a pond in the brook and
Master Donald slipped over the one and
one-half foot embankment and fell
through the ice where the water was
several times his height. With great
presence of mind Master Daniel seated
himself on the brink and pulled his
brother out as he appeared on the sur
face. Fortunately the little fellow rose
in the exact spot he entered, as the pond
was e. tirely frozen over. The little
rescuer was very calm over the affair
and much abashed when praised for his
judgment, for most nine-year-olds would
have run screaming to the house for
help. Besides bad fright and little
cold Master Donald is none the worse for
his accident. Mr.. j. A. Smith and
Mr.. w. T. Thomas of Portland, repre-
senting the Standard Oil Company of
N. Y, were here on Saturday to confer
with the local agent, Mr.. Chester Curtis.
The company's output from this station
for the month of December was about
5000 gallons. Mrs Addison Hayes is

Mr.. Dunton.
Uncle Abner began using tobacco at
Is and quit the habit at rs, fearing that
he had heart trouble. Liquor he had
used very sparingly ever since he was
boy. Almost everybody drank rum in
those days and young Abner followed
their example until he became convinced
that it was not beneficial. With another
lad he vowed to abstain from it, and it
was many years before liquor again pass
ed his lips.

arose regularly at 6 p. M, and retired
with equal regularity at p. m. Not
long before he reached the century mark
it was common occurrence for him to
walk to Camden, six miles, to attend a
Fourth of July celebration, or to I'm on,
five miles, to attend the annual fair.
Short of stature, and wearing always
an ancient stovepipe hat, he presented a
figure which became Nery familiar to
people on the countryside

when he was %, but except for accidents
he never had the services of a physician
since that time. When he was Is the
breath of life was almost knocked from
his body by horse falling upon him.
From that time until he was SO he led a
life that was singularly free from acct
dents. Five years ago he was run into
by bicyclist who was Showing off, as
Uncle Abner expresses it. No bones
were broken and his marvellous constitu-
ton soon brought him recovery from the
shock.
Mr.. Dunton in 1882 married Susannah
HARDWOOD of Hope, who died in 1876. Of
their five children there are two surviv-
ors, Abner F. Dunton of Hope. with
