Anna B. Van Dyke vg John W Alls
house. Ross and Edward Johnson, bill
in equity. The defendants made a
location and built a rig on a lot ad
joining Mrs. VanDyke's in Conno
queneeaing. She says that it is ao close
to her line that the rig timbers are
within three feet of her line and
thirteen feet of her honse, that the con
stant jarring of tools, dresaing of bits
and other noiae will make sleep im
possible in her honse wbile drilling is
programing, that there will be a grave
danger of her honse being burned down,
that the defendants hare plenty of
room on their lease to drill without
crowding her line so close, and there
fore asks that they be permanently r%
strained from drilling at the location
made. A hearing was fixed for Satur
day, February 10.
Michael Maloney vs Philip Kramer,
G. Myers, J. A. Dodds, O. W, Eagle
and B. Steighner, bill in equity to com
pel hi* partners to settle up before they
drill in a well on the Logue heirs farm
in Clearfield twp. Maloney took a
lease on the Henry in Summit
twp. and assigned one-half to Kramer,
one-eighth to Myers, one-eighth to
Eagle, one-sixteenth to Dodds and kept
three-sixteenths He claims Kramer
was to collect on the shares of the
others, and h6 (Maloney) went ahead
with the drilling, paying out about
SISOO. A small well was struck and
| against his protest a pumping outfit
was purchased at a cost of SBOO. They
then secured a lease on the Logue farm
in Clearfield twp. and started drilling
under the same arrangements as the
first. The well was due to reach the
sand within a few hours after the bill
in equity was filed and Maloney shut it
down and secured an injunction re
straining the others from having it
drilled in until they had paid up their
shares. Fear that he could not collect
from his partners if the well came in
dry, and that the first well would be
sold and the proceeds divided among
the others without paying the com
pany's liabilities, caused Maloney to
seek safety in the injunction.

Coughs, Sore Throat,
Hoarseness and Inflam

Immediately relieved by
REXALL
Cherry Juice
Cherry Jmce will care the most Btnb
born Cou«h, allay tickling Benaationtt in
the throat, soothe sorethroat, overcome
difficulty in breathing, and will
strengthen and clear the voice.
A dry, spasmodic, hacking or croopy
congh is quickly transformed into a
moist or loow cough, which yields more
readily to the treatment, because nature
is assisted in throwing off the secretions
of mucus and phlegm.
Kexall Cherry Juice U very pleasant
to taste and is readily taken by children
who object to bad tasting cough medi-.
cines—and remember this, where yon
