fects in Georgetown recently by F. B.
Rowe, a Commercial street collector,
an old time chart, or Epitome of Uni
versal Geography. This chart was
probably printed about 100 years ago
and is in various colored inks, giving
list of the different cities of note
and the population, rivers, canals,
railroads and Indian tribes This chart
came from the home in Georgetown of
the late Calvin Tarr. The population of
Maine is given as 39s.437, and Angus
ia Is mentioned as the capital of the
state with population of 1000. Prin-
cipal towns in the state at that time
were Portland, PASSPORT and Bath. ac-
cording to the compiler, V. NJ Shell
don. The chart was published by Case
& Skinner of Hartford Conn.
Among other papers was a memo
randum of 241 lbs of turkeys sold by
Capt. Tarr in 1889 to Walter s. Rus
sell who at that time had market at
lac Front street, Bath. The memoran-
dun showed that the turkeys were
sold for 20 cents a pound. The turkeys
raised by Mr.. Tarr were considered
among the best in the state and always
brought fancy price.

AS the little rabbit went hipperty hop
All of a sudden a chipperty chop
Sort of a noise loud and clear,
Came to his pink lined, startled ear
Goodness me, what is that?" he
asked himself, stopping to sniff the
Dir. But Billy Breeze was not blow
ing toward him, and no tell-tale
smell came to the pink nose of the
anxious little rabbit. So on he
hoped for minute or three, when,
lie stopped short, just like that. Ana
none too soon. Just a little way ahead
stood Danny Fox, chopping down
tree. Yes, sir, that was just what
this old robber was doing; chopping
down a tree. Back and forth swung
the big AK, making the chips fly IN
every direction.
Dear. oh dear" sighed the little
rabbit, hiding quickly behind a bush,
What Is that old fox up to. / Won

it. Danny Fox is always up to tricks.

THANK you, Downy Woodpecker,
answered the grateful little bunny,
and in a few minutes he was down
INTO the wind. He was mighty sure
Of this, for the smell of the fox's old
coat now came to the little rabbits
nose. Just then fiutter of wings

Danny Fox, picking up the ak.

"A CONTEST FOR THE GREAT
r. WATERS

Tho hearings now being had be-
fore Charles Evans Hughes, special
master Of the Supreme Court or the
United States, relative to diversion
Of the waters of the Great Lakes by
way OF a canal from Chicago into
the Mississippi waters indicate an
Importance entitled to general con-
sideration. If we accept no more
than q part Of the pleas put forth
by opposing counsel.
States ask Of the Federal Gov
eminent protection against the
State of Illinois. Canada, which
supplies the greater part OF the
waters of the Great Lakes is deeply
concerned that she shall not be de-
prived Of the natural advantages
afforded by those waters. Wars
have been declared on less excuse
than might become developed from
this contest over water rights.
At these hearings representatives
OF the States of Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Michigan. Ohio. Pennsyl-
varia and New York protest against
tho diversion, while defending this
diversion are Illinois, Kentucky,
Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, Mis-
sissippi and Louisiana
Newton D. Baker. counsel for the
former, contends that the canal TAX
ing water from Lake Michigan at
Chicago and serving as that city's
drainage canal. conveying that
water into the Des PLANES river
has lowered the level Of the Great
: Lakes excepting Superior about five
: inches, diverting more OF water than
was allowed under the Federal per-
NIT and causing three million dol
lars In damage annually to shipping
on the Lakes, lowering water fronts,
tnjuring improvements. necessitatins
large expenditures and seriously at
tecting the fertility Of a large area
by way Of lowering the water table
Of the lands drained.
He argues that the country is in
q way to undergo serious economic
loss, reasoning that the 10000 cubic
feet Of water per second diverted to
the Mississippi would produce but
$4,000 horse power on its way to the
Mississippi, whereas on its way to
the Atlantic by the st. Lawrence
route 100000 horsepower. Though
Canada is not party to the hear
ings she is protesting through dip
lomatic channels.
Hugh s. johnson, assistant at
torney general OF Illinois. contends
that the complaint should be dis
missed. He insis.s that the
amount Of water diverted. as re-
CARDS its effect on lake levels is In
fnitesimal; that the permit granted
by the Secretary Of War Is sufficient
and that 1t is not necessary for such
q permit to be approved by Con-
gress. He argues that the common
law with respect to riparian rights
does not apply, that the States ex-
cept as they may be retricted by the
Constitution have sovereign rights tt
these waters. He calls attention tt
the change that was made when the
boundaries of the State OF Illinois
were fixed bordering on the Lake
for the express purpose Of inducing
the new State to connect the waters
of the Lake with those Of the IL
linois and Mississippi river by q
canal: that later the Federal Gov
ALI this on the assumption that the
sovereign State of Illinois had the
right to do this; that only recently
has this been questioned.
