The strike of the Italian road la- borers, which for a number of days has tied up the street work in Car- thage and left the village with its main business thoroughfare all "torn up," was ended Saturday morning by the strikers accepting a wage of $2.15 for ten hours' work in lieu of the $2.40 which they demanded. 'About one half of the strikers returned to work, while the remainder left for Lowville to secure road work there. The con- tractors will now bring about fifty more laborers from New York, and rush the paving job forward. A big team of bays belonging to the Potsdam fire department caused an exciting runaway in Elm street in that village Friday afternoon. The team' was attached to one of the vil- lage sprinklers and became unmanage- able, near the Market street fire sta tion. Fireman Arthur Jenner, who was; driving, managed to keep the ani- mals in the road and swing them into Elm' street, fa front of the Albion House a rein snapped, however, and *'£&££%*-. •t&iSfe 5 ^ They-! -stlp^d. at a^bus^ialf w»£ th^ere,i,«n4t)wn|Be^: .ft^B : B|msi:/«laiina: he doze4 ^ and hlsmpneywas taken fromhim.

The percentage of standard condition of hay and clover on May 31, 1913, was 81.12, compared with 96.10 in 1912, 91.45 in 1911, and 97.64 in 1910. The figures indicate a hay and clover crop below the average and conditions at the close of the month of June, es- pecially in this portion of Canada, would seem to be considerably less favorable than at the end of May. In this immediate locality the hay crop will certainly be very light.

Work has been started on the Ontario mill just below the village of- Glen Park. The dam at this mill will un- dergo many repairs so as to put it in first class condition for the heavy flow of water expected in the fall and for the spring freshet which played such havoc with the dams owned by the International company last .spring.

The falling off of the hay and apple crops will make a considerable _, difference with the freight business of both divisions dur- ing the late summer and fall months. Woodsmen say that the antlers of deer are growing to an extraordinary winter of little snow last season. The size this year on account of the light growth of the 'horns is not yet com- plete but it has gone far enough to protect him from arrest until the number plate arrives. Each auto par- ty coming from Canada means money for the merchants and hotel men in this state and the new order, it is claimed, is hurting their business.

Mr. Moise is an employe of the Em- porium Lumber Co. at Conifer, near Childwold Station, and was away at the time of the fire. Occupying the house were Mrs. Moise, a 13 year old son and a 14 months old child. THe boy discovered the fire about mid- vigor with which the animals came out of last winter, the horns are excep- tionally broad, heavy and symmetri- cal. ' It has been observed that. in an autumn following a severe winter with heavy snows the horns of deer are in- variably undersized and poorly devel- oped. The animals come out of the season in such a weakened condition that Nature spends its energies build- ing up the body, rather than construct- ing such ornaments as antlers. No deer starved to death last winter on account of deep snows, which was an unusual thing. Invariably deep snows prevent the weaker animals from get- not affected and connection could be made at "any time with outside towns. Local lines in Philadelphia were also fut out. of commission for a while, al- though the toll lines worked as usual. The worst damage was done at Ther- esa where trees were blown over on •wires.

The fire originated in a summer kitch- en, which was soon a mass of flames, and communicated to the main part of •the house and to the barn in the rear.

The site is adjacent to the fine homes of Mayor Hoard and Louis C.. Nash. There is a large triangular space at the point where the streets converge and those interested in the matter be- lieve it affords ample room. Maj. A. J.

Sickles to look over sites for the monument, was was in the city again one day last week on a similar mission. With Mayor Hoard, J. C. Howard and Major W. H. Daniels, he inspected various places and was favorably impressed with the •. above mentioned location. City Engineer Tate made measure- ments of the site and will prepare a profile for the information of the State Monuments Commission. The con- tract for the base of the monument has been let to 'Crooks & McLean of Gouverneur. It will be of Barre gran- ite, 7 feet by six feet four inches.

W. & O. engine house and eleva­tion of the Black River tracks in such a manner that the Black River trains will come above the freight trains.

The strike of the Italian road la­borers, which for a number of days has tied up the street work in Car­thage and left the village with its main business thoroughfare all "torn up," was ended Saturday morning by the strikers accepting a wage of $2.15 for ten hours' work in lieu of the $2.40 which they demanded. 'About one half of the strikers returned to work, while the remainder left for Lowville to secure road work there. The con­tractors will now bring about fifty more laborers from New York, and rush the paving job forward.

A big team of bays belonging to the Potsdam fire department caused an exciting runaway in Elm street in that village Friday afternoon. The

• team' was attached to one of the vil­lage sprinklers and became unmanage­able, near the Market street fire sta tion. Fireman Arthur Jenner, who was; driving, managed to keep the ani­mals in the road and swing them into Elm' street, fa front of the Albion House a rein snapped, however, and

Considering the poor condition -of hay m New York, the following from the consul in Ottawa in the consular report is interesting: "The estimated area under hay and clover in Canada the current year is 7,475,000^ acres, as against 7,633,600 acres in 1912. The percentage of standard condition of hay and clover on May 31, 1913, was 81.12, compared with 96.10 in 1912, 91.45 in 1911, and 97.64 in 1910. The figures indicate a hay and clover crop below the average and conditions at the close of the month of June, es­pecially in this portion of Canada, would seem to be considerably less favorable than at the end of May. In this immediate locality the hay crop will certainly be very light.

Extensive repairs are to be made by the mills owned by the International Paper Co. along the Black River be­tween Watertown and Browmville. Work has been started on the Ontario mill just below the village of- Glen Park. The dam at this mill will un­dergo many repairs so as to put it in first class condition for the heavy flow of water expected in the fall and for the spring freshet which played such havoc with the dams owned by the International company last .spring.

The discovery of a new counterfeit five dollar "Indian head" silver cer­tificate is announced by Chief W. J. Flynn of the United States Secret Service. The spurious note apparent­ly is printed from crudely etched plates on fair quality bond paper, with ink lines to imitate the silk fibre of the genuine. The Indian portrait is very poor and on the back of the note, grass green in color, little attempt has been made to imitate the lathe work. Chief Flynn said the counterfeit should not deceive the ordinary careful handler of money.

Woodsmen say that the antlers of deer are growing to an extraordinary winter of little snow last season. The size this year on account of the light growth of the 'horns is not yet com­plete but it has gone far enough to

protect him from arrest until the number plate arrives. Each auto par­ty coming from Canada means money for the merchants and hotel men in this state and the new order, it is claimed, is hurting their business.

During' the wind, hail and electrical storm, that visited the St. Lawrence river section and the northern part of Hew York state in general late Thurs­day night uprooting trees and doing thousands of dollars damage to crops, several telephone lines were put out [of commission.

The residence of Antoine Moise, in Malone, was entirely destroyed by fire at an early hour Wednesday morning. Mr. Moise is an employe of the Em­porium Lumber Co. at Conifer, near Childwold Station, and was away at the time of the fire. Occupying the house were Mrs. Moise, a 13 year old son and a 14 months old child. THe boy discovered the fire about mid-

vigor with which the animals came out of last winter, the horns are excep­tionally broad, heavy and symmetri­cal. ' It has been observed that. in an autumn following a severe winter with heavy snows the horns of deer are in­variably undersized and poorly devel­oped. The animals come out of the season in such a weakened condition that Nature spends its energies build­ing up the body, rather than construct­ing such ornaments as antlers. No deer starved to death last winter on account of deep snows, which was an unusual thing. Invariably deep snows prevent the weaker animals from get-

not affected and connection could be made at "any time with outside towns. Local lines in Philadelphia were also fut out. of commission for a while, al­though the toll lines worked as usual. The worst damage was done at Ther­esa where trees were blown over on •wires. IPpon investigation in that sec­tion, many of the wires were found to he badly tangled and entirely out of commission. At the local telephone office no trouble was reported. The railroad and Postal and Western Un­ion telegraph companies also reported that all their lines were working. No trouble was reported that all their

The fire started in the upper floor of the mill, which is a three stroy structure, and by means of the pump in the basement it was confined to the upper floors. The stock and milling apparatus was the property of Mr.. Fisher. and was en­tirely destroyed. The mill was built in 1856 by Hiram Horton, and has had several owners since that time.

It has been practically decided to erect the General N. M. Curtis monu­ment at the interesection of Crescent and Pickering streets in Ogdensburg. The site is adjacent to the fine homes of Mayor Hoard and Louis C.. Nash. There is a large triangular space at the point where the streets converge and those interested in the matter be­lieve it affords ample room. Maj. A. J. Zabriskie, secretary and, engineer of the New York State Monuments Commission, who visited Ogdensburg two years ago with Gen. Sickles to look over sites for the monument, was was in the city again one day last week on a similar mission. With Mayor Hoard, J. C. Howard and Major W. H. Daniels, he inspected various places and was favorably impressed with the •. above mentioned location. City Engineer Tate made measure­ments of the site and will prepare a profile for the information of the State Monuments Commission. The con­tract for the base of the monument has been let to 'Crooks & McLean of Gouverneur. It will be of Barre gran­ite, 7 feet by six feet four inches. The height from the ground to the top of the figure will>e 18 feet. Major Dan­iels states that it is hoped to have the unveiling ceremonies in October, when the annual encampment of the S t Lawrence County Veterans' Associa­tion will be held.
