A difficulty that threatened to end in murder occurred Sunday in the public road near Paroquet when Sam Oliver, who lives in Jackson county, undertook to con- pei his wife to return to his home and live with him.
 Oliver and his wife seperated some time ago, his wife leaving him and returning to Paroquet where she has been making her home with her sister, Mrs. Lizzie Martin Last Sunday, Oliver went to Paroquet for the purpose of getting his wife to return and live with him, which she refused to do.
 Sunday afternoon as Mrs. Oliver and her sister, Mrs. Martin, and others, were returning home from the baptizing, Oliver overlook them in the road and demanded that his wife return home with him. She refused to do, telling Oliver that he would not treat her right and she could not live with him.
 fingered at her refusal, Oliver is alleged to have told her that he would kill her, and made an at tempt to get to her, but by the assistance of the others of the party she succeeded in getting away from him and Oliver was prevented from carrying out his threat. Oliver left but was seen in the community again Tuesday morning and 1t was feared that he had returned to make good his threat. Being informed of Divers presence in the neighborhood again, Mrs. Oliver boarded the To- cal for Newport to swear out warrant for Oliver.

CANNING FACTORIES BUSY

The report comes from the up- per White river country that many of the canning factories of that section are compelled to run day and night in order to keep up with the demands made upon them by the tomato growers. More than 200 cars of canned goods will be shipped out of that section this season.
 Canning factories are a very sub- stantial aid to prosperity, and the people around Newark are losing hundreds of dollars by not having a canning factory in this town.

Strong and Others Win
Suit In Supreme Court,

S@Ae 40 @AFASAA~ SS0A ~
! Judge Bulge was reversed by the
supreme court on Wednesday in a
decision handed down in the case of
the North Robinson-Dean Company
against Elisha Strong and four others
involved in the value of four stations
estimated to be worth $500.
The supreme court holds that the
sale of the horses by the North. Rob-
inson-Dean Company to Hurd was
absolute, and that Strong and his
associates bought the animals In
good faith. It is further held that
the plaintiffs did not make demand
ON Hurd. to pay the bill or return the
horses after July 1, 1919.
IL was further held by the supreme
court that the action brought was not
to set aside the sale by Hurd te
Strong, but to collect the purchase
price, (which ratifies the sale By
plaintiff to Hurd and the sale b,
Hurd to the defendants."
Another point emphasized by the
supreme court is that there was NJ
talk of an agency in the matter; tina
Hurd did not sell to Strong as Al
agent. He signed the bill of sale q
