FITCHETT'S FENCE IS DOWN Agonized Soul of Classic Dundee Again Reti in Quiet Peace. BUILDER OF BARRIER RELENTS Ilia Yearning; for rrlracy from Neighborly , Observation Use Been Satisfied and Obstruc tion) la Removed. Frank Fltchetfs fence Is down, and once again the mourning dove has preened her feathers, raised her head In Joy and Is cooing with delight over bonny Dundee. Even tha sedate and sad- eyed wrestler with the woes of state prisoners. John Oom Velser, wears Just a hint of a smile as he notes the welcome hiatus In the landscape whero once stood the rather famous fence. Mr. Fltchett. of tho rank of sage In a village of wise ones, some two or threo years ago accumulated what has been characterized as an exaggerated notion of alleged disagreeable qualities In a neighbor. There were many who con tended that Mr. Fltchett himself had studied Idlosyncratlo philosophy to that extent that only a "spite" fence could satisfy his yearning for privacy from neighborly observation. Po he built a high board obstruction on the side of his property next to the home of the neighbor he disliked. Not a Thing; of Beaaty. This fence was not artlstlo In design, nor was It painted In peaceful, pleasing colors calculated to develop the most genial aura. Rather, on the dexter side It was Inscribed with expletives more forceful than graceful; something that was not to be listed as courteous language or even passable art. Quite objectionable from every angle was this Fltchett fence, except that It satisfied the fretful soul of Its builder. Once erected the Fltchett fence at tracted that kind of attention that In the olden days would have led to argument with spear and battleax. In this Instance tho matter did not go to the test of arms, but It did get Into tho arena of court, and much language was expended by brilliant barristers. Despite every effort, tho structure remained, and the esthetic soul of Dundee agonised whenever that fussy fence broke on Its view. But re cently Mr. Fltchett relented and once more the brethren dwelt In peace. CATTLEMAN SETTLES CASE OUT OF COURT Rami'el Werthelmer, a cattleman, brought to an end the trial which has been occupying the . attention of the United States circuit court when he ac cepted 12,800 from the Union Paclflo rail road.
