DOGS INTELLIGENCE
ADDS TO HIS VALUE
Supreme Court So Holds
Lower Courts Affirmed in
Nine Cases

The dog had his dav in the supreme
court today and even though he be
dead dog he was held to be worth 5000
and the costs of three trials in addi
tion. Moreover, the value of dog
was held to be fixed by it's traits.
habits and intelligence and not by
the market value of sausage. Intclli
gence is therefore an asset and can be
capitalized in a dog, though the same
is not always true of his masters.
Nine decisions w're handed down
and in all the decision of the lower
court was affirmed. The dog case was
that of NJ. ID. McCallister against Hen.
ry Sappingfield, appealed by the de-
fendant from the decision of Judge
Percy r. Kelly of the circuit court of
Marion county, awarding judgment Of
5000 and costs in favor of the plaintiff.
Mr.. McCallister, who is an employe
of the state engineer S office, owned
Scotch collie dog which he kept on his
farm few miles from this city. In
October, 1912, the dog was shot and
Killed by Henry Sappingfield. Mr..
Sappingfield alleged that the dog was
vicious and that as he was passing
along the highway on horseback the
dog attacked dog that was following
him and that he was forced to shoot the
collie to protect his dog. All of these
allegations were denied by the plain
tft.
Ihe decision, which was written by
JuSuee McNary, states that the single
question Of law hinged on whether or
nor the evidence showing the trSuing
and intelligence of the dog should have
oeen admitted to the Jury by the Judge
as the basis OF committing the value
OF the dog. The defense argued that
the dog was worth What one could be
purchased for IN the open market. This
conception, according to the decision
OF ihe supreme court, is based upon the

AUsTRIA's APPROVAL.
Sec, Wilson's Plan for Prevention OF

Here.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Ambassador Du-
ma of Austria Hungary, after discussing
with Secretary Wilson of the department
of labor the latters plan for preventing
who cannot be admitted to
this country from leaving from their ma

hearty approval. Next to southern Italy,
Austria now furnishes most of the emf
grafton to this country.
With Secretary Wilson, the ambassador
believes that some way should be found
for keeping at home those who would
be turned back at Ellis Island. In nis
country, he said. he thought the best
way would be to have announcements
made by the priests in the churches ey-
cry Sunday They could warn the people,
he said, that the United States was not
an entirely open door and that before
they sell all of their property to sail TO
America they had better find out whether
there is any cause which would keep
them from being admitted. He is Of opin

A Dainty Laxative That Gently As
sists Nature.

The day of harsh purgatiyes, of big
cathartic pills is OVERCOME forever.
No need any longer to swallow a
nauseating dose to give nature the
gentle assistance required. Pinklets,
the new laxative, are tiny, pink
granules, sugar coated, easy to take
and smooth as velvet in their opera
ton.
Pinklets positively will not grippe.
They produce not a single distressing
symptom, yet their action is certain
and thorough.
Pinklets are just the laxative you
need to arouse the lazy, sluggish
bowels and torpid liver. Don't keep
on using harsh, strong purgatives for
they. always upset the stomach and
leave the bowels irritated and in
worse condition than before. Rely on
Pinklets to gently assist the bowels
and be free from constipation.
These little pills are a corrective for
bad breath, will clear the complexion
and are recommended for torpid liver,
biliousness, headaches and constipa-
ton.
Any druggist can supply you with
Pinklets, 25 cents per bottle.

the southwestern corner of Maine,
settled in 1928. South Berwick is a
pretty village with many fine old resi-
denees dating back to the beginning of
the century.
Here is Berwick Academy, one of
the oldest in Maine, receiving its
original charter with a grant of a
township of land in 1891. The Fogg
Memorial Library is a beautiful build
ing housing 1000 volumes and is one
of the "show-p places of the town. The
village has a shoe factory and numer-
GUS small industries and many people
come there for the summer especially
former residents.
Rich in historical lore 1t is sure to
have a due and fitting observance of
the Tooth anniversary. This will no
doubt have as a feature reunion of
the alumni of Berwick Academy, who
are very loyal to the old institution
and include many hight in professional
and business life all over the country.

population won it's place again by new
industries and general hustle.
Newport is on the line of the
Maine Central, 25 miles west of Ban

branch, which also makes a short cut
to Moosehead Lake by the way of
Dover. 1t is combination of a
farming, manufacturing and summer

of all kinds of farm products, it is a
ready market for both produce and

Sebasticook Lake is one of the
largest and most beautiful sheets of
water in Maine and is well stocked
with fish. On the shores is Camp
Benson, large summer colony.
Newport was settled in about 1908
and was originally called East Pond
Plantation. The early settlers were
the Martins, Lawrences, Burrills,
Bieknells, Irelands and Pratts, who
came over from the Kennebec. New
ports population was 1863 in 1870 and
dropped to 1883 in 1890 but is now the
largest in its history, having 1747 in
1910.

On the eastern side the granite
walls of historic Fort Popham still
bear the marks of it's occupancy by
Pophams colony in 1907. At Small
Point Harbor, to the southwest, Is the
site of fishing village, established by
the Pejepscot proprietors in It's with
the name of Augusta. There a rude
wooden fort was erected
A sloop called the PeJepscot piled
as a packet between this hamlet and
Boston, carrying fish and bringing
back merchandise. The settlement
continued until the so-called Love-
wells war, when it was wiped out by
the Indians. In 1887 1t was reset
tied, but there were more or less
troublous times for many years after.
Although so old that the tercen-
tenary was celebrated In 1907 the
town was not incorporated as Phipps-
burg until 1914 when it was set off
from Georgetown and named for Sir
William Phipps. The eminent citi-
zens of the old days included Mark L.
Hill, Andrew Reed, William NJ. Reed.
Thomas M. Reed, Parker McCobb and
James Bowker.
The Phippsburg of today has a
population of about 100 people and
nearly double that number in sum
mer :
Popham Beach and Small Point
Beach have a number of summer ho-
tells and there are many summer cot
tages scattered about. Phippsburg
has two of the very few remaining
shipyards on the Maine coast and
vessels are almost continually in
process of construction.
A considerable amount of ice is cut
on the interior ponds of the town.
There are postoffices at Parker's Head,
Small Point, Popham Beach, Ashdale,
Sebasco and Small Point Beach. The
town has no railroad connection but
steamers of the Kennebec division of
the Eastern Steamship Corporation
land there and also several other short
lines. 1t is very probable that the
Tooth anniversary of Phippsburg will
be duly celebrated this year.
Westbrook is a lively city, six miles
inland from Portland. Although young
as city, has ample excuse for eele-
brating, as it became an individual
municipality 100 years ago, when 1t
was set off from old Falmouth and
incorporated under the name of
Stroudwater. This name didn't suit
very we'll and only few months later
1t was changed to Westbrook, in honor
of Col. Thomas Westbrook who dis
tinguished himself in the Indian wars
Deering was taken from Westbrook
in 1871 and is now part of Portland.
TWO railroad lines pass through the
city, originally the Portland & Roch-
ester and the Portland & Ogdensburg,
now the Boston & Maine and the
mountain division of the Maine Gem
tral. The city is made up of two
villages. Westbrook and Cumberland
Mills. the former once known "a

Nestbrook now has S2S1 people, a
steady gain in population since il was
incorporated 1t has number of large
industries, including a big paper mill,
