The suit of E. W. Coon agcinst the Phoenix Insurance company and ten other underwriters, to recover full value for the loss by fire of the Coon cheese warehouse at Oape Vincent, N.Y, in April, 1921, is being re- opened and the case will be submit- ted 'to Justice Irving R. Devendort, Herkimer, N.Y., within the near fu- ture, The litigation, involving a claim of many thousands of dollars has been fought with tragedy and de- layed in its proceedings through the courts for more than a year. At the first hearing one of the principal witnesses for the defense, the late Fred G. Millard, Syracuse, N.Y., was stricken with apoplexy, dying a few days later, During the second hearing Warren H. Evaul, Cape Vincent, N.Y., super- intendent of the plant and star wit- ness for plaintiff, disappeared, his body was found a day later in Blac river. : Just at the close of the evidence last fall Justice Edgar C..Emerson, referee, was taken ill and his death resulted in long delay. Arrangements finally were com- pleted by attorneys to certify the testimony as submitted before Jus- tice Emerson to Justice Davendorf. Minutes have been transcribed ané with the filing of briefs, Justi Devendorf will take the' case ad give decision. Mr. Coon demands $115,315 as the actual loss suffered in the destruc- tion of the plant and contents. In- surance appraisers, from whose de- cesion he took the claim into couri, granted a much lower sum. The property was insured for full value ---- THE TOWN WATCHMAN The Humane Society is to be !ink- ed with the Salvation Army in the doing of good works. The little band of men and women who consti- tute this society are doing splendid work for the dumb animals, and when their tag day comes, drop in your coin willingly. 3 Hs If the burglars would go through the city in dead of night and steal all the roosters that crow there would be jubilation in many homes. ---- The farmers are kicking because they say the speed cops summon them but let the visiting tourists go. The latter burn up the roads here- abouts, but the local court dockets fail to show any convictions. Now that an Ottawa magistrate has declared it not unlawful to put your arm around a girl while you drive your auto, Toronto magistrates will have to change their view. Auto hugging is common around Gapano- que, and some of it is seen about Kingston, Kingston city council debates have become tame in comparison to those of the township body. But the rea- ll | son is obvious--the Thunderer has transferred himself beyond the city limits. However, Kingston township is going to benefit by all this con- troversy. The smoke of battle will soon clear amd peace will again reign. 3 Queen's summer school means a good deal to Kingston. There is a registration of nearly 450, of whom more than 350 come from outside placés. Fully fifty thousand dollars is expended by this number in the session of six weeks. : It would appear that the O.T.A. referendum is to be held in October, the month that used to produce the "brown October ale." Perhaps the attorney-general had this in mind when he hit upon October as the voting time, Now we are told that the United Empire Loyalists were not the "whole push" after all and tha there were other people who helps: make Canada besides the U.E.L. folk. Assuredly there were, and there is no brighter page in Canadian history than that which tells of those brave French priests who came over here in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries to christianize the Indians. They knew real hardships, and suf- fered horribly. nar On several panels of the Old Bank of British North America quarters, now occupied as the Ontario govern- ment liquor dispensary, appear the letters "B.N.A." A banker, who was In the dispensary getting his bottle of medicine, was asked by a stranger what these letters meant and he Te- plied: ' "Booze - Not Adulterated." Well we hope that is correct, and that the administration at Toronto will give the people devior Scoteh ih was supplied during 6. HAD PLEASANT OUTING Sydenham Street Methodist Church Picnic Held at Brophy's Point Friday. The annual picnic of Sydenham Street Methodist church was held on Friday afternoon at Brophy's Point, with three hundred present. The weather was ideal for the out- ing, and all in attendance voted it the best picnic in the history of the school.
