LECTURES BY JOIN WEIss.-The first Ice
ture Of the course of three to be given in this
city by Rev John Weiss Of Watertown, will
take place this evening, at Lyceum hall, on
Foster street. 1t will be unnecessary to do more
than remind the friends of this cultured and
brilliant speaker OF the fact to ensure their
attendance. To others, who failed to hear Mr.,
Weiss former course here on Greek mythology,
we commend these lectures on Shakespeare as
better worth hearing than most of the lectures
to which the public arc invited. 1t is one of
those occasional opportunities which the
thoughtful lecture gocr ought not to neglect.

PEOPLES CLUB.-Thc annual meeting of the
members of the Peoples club was held in their
rooms last evening, Il very large number being
present. The officers of the club are usually
elected at the annual meeting, but it was decid
ed to postpone the election until Monday eve
ning Nov. II, The annual reports of the diff
ferent sections of the organization were pre-
scented, read and adopted. A motion was offered
to exclude women from tue regular evening SEES
sions of the club, which excited great deal of
comment from the members of the organiza-
ton, Icing strongly supported and condemned.
The motion, after being amended by providing
that women be excluded unless a sufficient
number of the members Of the club could be pres
snt on each evening to preserve order, was laid
upon the table. At the conclusion of the re-
marks upon the motion, a number of members
volunteered TO be present certain evenings in
the week and assist in the care of the rooms.
The motion to exclude women was offered, to
the rooms as place Of recreation from using
them as a place for meeting with young men.
The motion was opposed on the grounds that
the club was originated for the purpose of fur
nishing innocent amusement to all, and that the
exclusion of women from the sessions was a
downward step from the purpose of the found
crs of the organization. AS a measure for pre-
venting the repetition Of the actions of last year,
those who offered their services agreed that in
case they were unable to be present, to send a
substitute.

WANING to Saloon Keepers.

It becomes keepers of drinking
saloons to be exceedingly cautious.
The Supreme Court of Ohio has
affirmed the constitutionality of the
law giving damage upon suits to
wives, husbands, parents, guardians,
&c, for selling liquor. On the 23d
inst, the case of John Schneider
(liquor seller versus Sarah Hosier,
of Preble county, came up on appeal.
Plaintiff had appealed against the
verdict of the jury in the lower court.
awarding to Mrs. Hosier damages
against him for selling liquor to her
Incorporate husband. There was q
full bench, and Judge McIlvaine
read the following opinion:
An action for injuries sustained
by wife, in her person or property
or means of support, under (orig-
inal } section seven of the net OF May
l, 1854, Is. & c., 1882 J, entitled "An
act to provide against the evils re-
sulting from the sale Of intoxicating
liquors in the State of Ohio" MAY
be commenced after the death of the
husband.
The phrase "means of support" as
used in said section, is not LOO vague
and uncertain to receive judicial
construction.
A vile has an interest in her hus
bands capacity to perform labor as
a means of support; and she may
prosecute an action resulting to hel
from the deprivation of such means
of support in consequence of the
intoxication of her husband, against
any person who caused such intoxi
cation by liquors, in violation of sale
statute.
The omission of the court, in it,
charge to the jury, to define or ex
plain doubtful words or phrases con
tanned in a statute upon which tht
action is founded, does not consti
tute a ground of reversal, unles,
such definition or explanation wal
requested by the party claiming tt
have been prejudiced thereby.
In all actions under said section
in which the plaintiff shows rigb-
TO recover damages actually sus
tanned, the jury may also assess ex
emplary damages, without proof o
actual malice or special Circumstance
of aggravalion.
The verdict in such cases should
not be set aside on the ground tha
the damages are excessive, unless
The court is satisfied that the jury
abused its discretion.
Nor will the verdict be disturbed
because the court in its charge stateC
general propositions of law not in
volved in the issue, if it appears
from the VIII le charge that the jury
could not have been misled thereby
Judgment affirmed.

Hon. HocKINe H. HUNTER, one of
the oldest and ablest members of the
Chic bar, and perhape the profound
est railroad attorney in the State,
died at his residence in Lancaster,
on the 4th inst. He was buried on
Wednesday. Mr.. Hunter was one
the first white children, if not the
irst white child born in Ohio.
His father settled in the Hook Hook.
ing valley, and his son, the deceased,
spent his early years on the farm,
gaining his education at log school
house near the farm. His great ma
tural abilities and his desire for
knowledge prompted him to turn
his atte ton to the law, and he be-
came one of its brightest luminaries.
He was elected Judge of the Sup
RENE Court of the State some years
ago, but either did not qualify, or
else served but short time, as the
immense pecuniary sacrifice he would
be obliged to sustain would not per-
nit him to hold the office. He was
contemporary with the elder Ewing
and follows closely upon his heels to
that "bourne from which no traveller
retnrns."
