MR. JUSTICE FIELD, with whom concurred MR. JUSTICE MILLER and MR. JUSTICE STRONG, dissenting.
I dissent from the judgment of the court in this case. I do not think that two hundred and seventy-five yards of lace, claimed by the owner to be worth $75,000, and found by the jury to be of the value of $10,000, can, as a matter of law, be properly considered as baggage of a passenger, for the loss of which the railroad company, in the absence of any special agreement, should be held liable.

# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Municipal

MUNICIPAL
"Why is my District death-rate low?" Said Binks of Hezabad. "Well, drains, and sewage-outfalls are "My own peculiar fad. "I learnt a lesson once. It ran "Thus," quoth that most veracious man:—
IT WAS an August evening and, in snowy garments clad, I paid a round of visits in the lines of Hezabad; When, presently, my Waler saw, and did not like at all, A Commissariat elephant careering down the Mall.
I couldn't see the driver, and across my mind it rushed That that Commissariat elephant had suddenly gone musth. I didn't care to meet him, and I couldn't well get down, So I let the Waler have it, and we headed for the town.
The buggy was a new one and, praise Dykes, it stood the strain, Till the Waler jumped a bullock just above the City Drain; And the next that I remember was a hurricane of squeals, And the creature making toothpicks of my five-foot patent wheels.
He seemed to want the owner, so I fled, distraught with fear, To the Main Drain sewage-outfall while he snorted in my ear— Reached the four-foot drain-head safely and, in darkness and despair, Felt the brute's proboscis fingering my terror-stiffened hair.
​Heard it trumpet on my shoulder—tried to crawl a little higher— Found the Main Drain sewage outfall blocked, some eight feet up, with mire; And, for twenty reeking minutes, Sir, my very marrow froze, While the trunk was feeling blindly for a purchase on my toes!
It missed me by a fraction, but my hair was turning grey Before they called the drivers up and dragged the brute away. Then I sought the City Elders, and my words were very plain. They flushed that four-foot drain-head and—it never choked again!
You may hold with surface-drainage, and the sun-for-garbage cure, Till you've been a periwinkle shrinking coyly up a sewer. I believe in well-flushed culverts.... This is why the death-rate's small; And, if you don't believe me, get shikarred yourself. That's all.

# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Pagett, M.P.

PAGETT, M.P.
The toad beneath the harrow knows Exactly where each tooth-point goes; The butterfly upon the road Preaches contentment to that toad.
PAGETT, M.P., was a liar, and a fluent liar therewith,— He spoke of the heat of India as "The Asian Solar Myth"; Came on a four months' visit, to "study the East" in November, And I got him to sign an agreement vowing to stay till September.
​March came in with the köil. Pagett was cool and gay, Called me a "bloated Brahmin," talked of my "princely pay." March went out with the roses. "Where is your heat?" said he. "Coming," said I to Pagett. "Skittles!" said Pagett, M. P.
April began with the punkah, coolies, and prickly-heat,— Pagett was dear to mosquitoes, sandflies found him a treat. He grew speckled and lumpy—hammered, I grieve to say, Aryan brothers who fanned him, in an illiberal way.
May set in with a dust-storm,—Pagett went down with the sun. All the delights of the season tickled him one by one. Imprimis—ten days' "liver"—due to his drinking beer; Later, a dose of fever—slight, but he called it severe.
Dysent'ry touched him in June, after the Chota Bursat— Lowered his portly person—made him yearn to depart. He didn't call me a "Brahmin," or "bloated," or "overpaid," But seemed to think it a wonder that any one ever stayed.
July was a trifle unhealthy,—Pagett was ill with fear, Called it the "Cholera Morbus," hinted that life was dear. He babbled of "Eastern exile," and mentioned his home with tears; But I hadn't seen my children for close upon seven years.
We reached a hundred and twenty once in the Court at noon, [I've mentioned Pagett was portly] Pagett went off in a swoon. That was an end to the business. Pagett, the perjured, fled With a practical, working knowledge of "Solar Myths" in his head.
​And I laughed as I drove from the station, but the mirth died out on my lips As I thought of the fools like Pagett who write of their "Eastern trips," And the sneers of the travelled idiots who duly misgovern the land, And I prayed to the Lord to deliver another one into my hand.
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Lord Roberts

Lord Roberts
1914
He passed in the very battle-smoke
Of the war that he had descried.
Three hundred mile of cannon spoke
When the Master-Gunner died.
He passed to the very sound of the guns;
But, before his eye grew dim,
He had seen the faces of the sons
Whose sires had served with him.
​He had touched their sword-hilts and greeted each
With the old sure word of praise;
And there was virtue in touch and speech
As it had been in old days.
So he dismissed them and took his rest,
And the steadfast spirit went forth
Between the adoring East and West
And the tireless guns of the North.
Clean, simple, valiant, well-beloved,
Flawless in faith and fame,
Whom neither ease nor honours moved
An hair's-breadth from his aim.
Never again the war-wise face,
The weighed and urgent word
That pleaded in the market-place—
Pleaded and was not heard!
Yet from his life a new life springs
Through all the hosts to come,
And Glory is the least of things
That follow this man home.
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/My Rival

MY RIVAL
I GO to concert, party, ball— What profit is in these? I sit alone against the wall And strive to look at ease. The incense that is mine by right They burn before Her shrine; And that's because I'm seventeen And she is forty-nine.
I cannot check my girlish blush, My colour comes and goes. I redden to my finger-tips, And sometimes to my nose. But she is white where white should be, And red where red should shine. The blush that flies at seventeen Is fixed at forty-nine.
I wish I had her constant cheek: I wish that I could sing All sorts of funny little songs, Not quite the proper thing. I'm very gauche and very shy, Her jokes aren't in my line; And, worst of all, I'm seventeen While She is forty-nine.
The young men come, the young men go, Each pink and white and neat, She's older than their mothers, but They grovel at Her feet. ​They walk beside Her 'rickshaw-wheels— None ever walk by mine; And that's because I'm seventeen And She is forty-nine.
She rides with half a dozen men (She calls them "boys" and "mashes"), I trot along the Mall alone; My prettiest frocks and sashes Don't help to fill my programme-card, And vainly I repine From ten to two A.M. Ah me! Would I were forty-nine.
She calls me "darling," "pet," and "dear," And "sweet retiring maid." I'm always at the back, I know— She puts me in the shade. She introduces me to men— "Cast" lovers, I opine; For sixty takes to seventeen, Nineteen to forty-nine.
But even She must older grow And end Her dancing days, She can't go on forever so At concerts, balls and plays. One ray of priceless hope I see Before my footsteps shine; Just think, that She'll be eighty-one When I am forty-nine!

MY FATHER'S CHAIR
(Parliaments of Henry III, 1265)
THERE are four good legs to my Father's Chair— Priest and People and Lords and Crown. I sits on all of 'em fair and square, And that is the reason it don't break down.
I won't trust one leg, nor two, nor three, To carry my weight when I sets me down, I wants all four of 'em under me— Priest and People and Lords and Crown.
I sits on all four and I favours none— Priest, nor People, nor Lords, nor Crown And I never tilts in my chair, my son, And that is the reason it don't break down!
When your time comes to sit in my Chair, Remember your Father's habits and rules. Sit on all four legs, fair and square, And never be tempted by one-legged stools!

Pan in Vermont
1893
(About the 15th of this month you may expect our Mr.—, with the usual Spring Seed, etc. Catalogues.—Florists Announcement..)
It's forty in the shade to-day the spouting eaves declare; The boulders nose above the drift, the southern slopes are bare; Hub-deep in slush Apollo's car swings north along the Zod- iac. Good lack, the Spring is back, and Pan is on the road!
His house is Gee & Tellus' Sons,—so goes his jest with men— He sold us Zeus knows what last year; he'll take us in again. Disguised behind a livery-team, fur-coated, rubber-shod— Yet Apis from the bull-pen lows—he knows his brother God!
Now down the lines of tasselled pines the yearning whispers wake— Pitys of old thy love behold. Come in for Hermes' sake! How long since that so-Boston boot with reeling Maenads ran? Numen adest! Let be the rest. Pipe and we pay, O Pan.
(What though his phlox and hollyhocks ere half a month demised? What though his ampelopsis clambered not as advertised? Though every seed was guaranteed and every standard true— Forget, forgive they did not live! Believe, and buy anew!)
Now o'er a careless knee he flings the painted page abroad— Such bloom hath never eye beheld this side the Eden Sword; Such fruit Pomona marks her own, yea, Liber oversees That we may reach (one dollar each) the Lost Hesperides!
​Serene, assenting, unabashed, he writes our orders down:— Blue Asphodel on all our paths—a few true bays for crown— Uncankered bud, immortal flower, and leaves that never fall— Apples of Gold, of Youth, of Health—and—thank you, Pan, that's all.
He's off along the drifted pent to catch the Windsor train, And swindle every citizen from Keene to Lake Champlain; But where his goat's-hoof cut the crust—beloved, look below— He's left us (I'll forgive him all) the may-flower 'neath her snow!

Mary's Son
1911
If you stop to find out what your wages will be And how they will clothe and feed you, Willie, my son, don't you go on the Sea, For the Sea will never need you.
If you ask for the reason of every command, And argue with people about you, Willie, my son, don't you go on the Land, For the Land will do better without you.
If you stop to consider the work you have done And to boast what your labour is worth, dear, Angels may come for you, Willie, my son, But you'll never be wanted on Earth, dear!
# Rudyard Kipling's Verse, Inclusive Edition, 1885-1918/Mesopotamia

Mesopotamia
1917
They shall not return to us, the resolute, the young The eager and whole-hearted whom we gave: But the men who left them thriftily to die in their own dung, Shall they come with years and honour to the grave?
They shall not return to us, the strong men coldly slain In sight of help denied from day to day: But the men who edged their agonies and chid them in their pain, Are they too strong and wise to put away?
​Our dead shall not return to us while Day and Night divide— Never while the bars of sunset hold. But the idle-minded overlings who quibbled while they died, Shall they thrust for high employments as of old?
Shall we only threaten and be angry for an hour? When the storm is ended shall we find How softly but how swiftly they have sidled back to power By the favour and contrivance of their kind?
Even while they soothe us, while they promise large amends, Even while they make a show of fear, Do they call upon their debtors, and take council with their friends, To confirm and re-establish each career?
Their lives cannot repay us—their death could not undo— The shame that they have laid upon our race. But the slothfulness that wasted and the arrogance that slew, Shall we leave it unabated in its place?
# Representative women of New England/E. Josephine C. Beeman

​E. Josephine Collins Beeman, teacher of elocution and public reader, was born in Cambridgeport (a part of Cambridge), Mass., November 17, 1874, being the youngest of the four children of P. D. Collins and his wife, Anna (Murray) Collins. On the maternal side she is a descendant of John and Mary Murray, farmers, of Canton, Mass., the latter of whom was noted in that locality as an herb doctor, being very successful in healing the sick. One of her remedies is still in use.
Mrs. Beeman obtained her education in the public schools of Cambridge and Hyde Park, Mass. While still in school she studied dress-making, which she began to teach at the age of sixteen. Possessing strong artistic instincts, she was not contented to remain at this occupation, but in 1893–94 taught a public school in Western Massachusetts, having previously become a student at the New England Conservatory of Music. Later, at the age of twenty-one, she entered the Emerson School of Oratory. Graduating with honors from that institution after the usual course, she accepted a position there as teacher of music, physical culture, and elocution, which she held for several years. She has since introduced physical culture and oratory into the public schools in the vicinity of Boston, devoting a great part of her time to the instruction of teachers in this work, with the approbation of the school authorities. Her labors in this direction have also included ​Dr. Sargent's Normal School in Harvard Square, Cambridge, and the Dorchester Club. Mrs. Becnian is fond of outdoor sports, such as rowing, swimming, bicycling, horseback-riding and golf.
Her husband, Jerome Van Ness Beeman, to whom, as E. Josephine Collins, she was united September 25, 1900, is a descendant of the early Dutch settlers of New York, in which State he was born and brought up.
In the winter of 1903-1904 Mrs. Beeman resumed her classes (for some time suspended) among the school teachers in the vicinity of Boston, and is carrying on this work at present. She has also from time to time written articles for various papers, including the Dorchester Beacon and the Boston Transcript. She is a prominent member of the Ruskin Club and the Emerson Alumni Association. She is well read, and has improved her education and broadened the scope of her knowledge by travel, having visited a number of the largest cities and .seen the principal rivers and mountains of this country and Canada.
