In the case Of Farnsworth VS. the &. D.
& NJ. r. r. Co., for damages resulting
from the death of an emplOye
of the company, while in the discharge
of his duties, tried before Judge Wilson
last week, the verdict was for the defend
ant, almost without contest. The case
had been tried before in Clayton County,
and verdict rendered against the Com.
pany for $1,000. An order for new
trial was obtained and change of venue
taken to this county. When the case
came on here last week, the principal
witness for the prosecution testified SO
differently from what he did on the first
trial, that the attorneys on that side,
Messrs. Foulke & Lyon, OF Dubuque,
realizing the hopelessness of verdict,
declined to necdlessly consume the time
Of the court, and withdrew their case aft
or the examination OF the witness referred
to- This judicious and dignitied
action is entitled to MENTION
II attorneys would always thus
take counsel of their better judgment,
rather then their pugnacity, the court ex-
penses might be materially lessened.

LIQUOR DAMAGEs.--Through inadvert-
ance we failed to make mention last
week, of the result of the action for dam
ages, brought by the wife of Jas. Cush,
ing-the man who two years ago this
month, was burned up IN the calabocse
in this city-against Simon Murray, ].
Moroney and Dickson & Mccartney,
saloon keepers, for selling liquor to her
husband On the day of his tragic death.
The trial lasted several days, was ably
contested on both sides, and resulted in
verdict of $4,000 for the plaintiff.
Murray and Moroney owned the build
ings in which their saloons were kept,
the owners of the building IN which
Dickson & McCaffrey's saloon was situa:-
ed, were made co-dcfendants The ver-
dict is in accord with the public sense of
justice in the case, and has set the saloon

SEVERE ACCIDENT.-Mrs. w. l.. NAL
lory, the wife of respectable farmer
living north of Winthrop, met with quite
a mishap on our street on Wednesday,
which only by the utmost good fortune,
did not result fatally. Passing up Main
street ia spring wagon, her husband
driving, and occupying front seat while
she sat on a seat at the extreme rear end
of the vehicle, when they got TO the cross
ing In front of Waggoner's store, the seat,
not being fastened, tilted back, precipi-
tating Mrs. Mallory, who is quite heavy
woman, to the ground, striking on the
back part of her head and neck Rem
dered helpless from the fall, she was
carried into Smale's drug store, and by
the aid of stimulants, partially recovered
from the shock. She was afterward re-
moved on q bed 10 the residence of rel
alive on the west side, where an cxamina-
ton of her hurts was made by DR.. House.
Her neck and head were found much
bruised and swollen, but no indications
were discovered of fracture At last ac-
counts she was comfortable, and in a
fair way to recover speedily. 1t was the
merest chance that her neck was not bro
ken, and that she was not instantly killed.
There is altogether too much carelcssness
about the proper fastening down of seats
in the common spring or democrat wagon.
They are very liable to tip, and it is a
wonder that more accidents of this kind
do not occur.

THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.-Nith the IN
coming of the new city government there
has been a change in the organization of
the Board of Directors Of the Free Pub
lie Library. Mr.. J. B. Donnan, whs is o
member of the new Council, has tender
ed his resignation from the Library Board,
and at the first meeting of the Council
last week, II. Birmingham was
chosen in his stead. At the same
time, Messrs j. L. Looms and j ohn Sex
ton were reelected members of the
Board for three years and c.
NJ Durham chosen to represent
the Council in the same body. The re-
port of the meeting to elect officers of the
Board, held last Tuesday evening, will be
found elsewhere in this issue. An addi-
ton of nearly 200 new books to the Ii
brary has been determined, the selections
being now under consideration.

have adopted the above designation, will
perform at the Opera House tomorrow
evening. We know nothing of the
merits of this company, and certainly
are not prepared to say that their enter

pleasing as is claimed IN the bills. But
one thing the public have a right to know
and that is that this company Is
not the original Boston Philharmonic
Club. The latter organization is COM
posed of the finest musicians in the coun-
try, each famous in his speciality, and
the fame and reputation of the Club is as
wide as the country This company of
really first class performers, accompanied
by Miss Dora Wiley, n young and &C
complshcd vocalist, who has won dis
tinguishcd favor from cultivated audi
ences Of the east, are booked for one of
their Grand Concerts in this city, May 1st
This information is due to parties who
may be deceived by the adoption of their
name by the company that performs at the
Opera House to- morrow night Such un-
authorized appropriations of a we'll earn
ed name and reputation may be allowa
bic among showmen, but to the common
apprehension 1t looks rather cheeky.

not generally supposed to be such as re-
quires the intervention of an attorney.

Public Printer would be rendered to q
northwestern newspaper publisher, said

And since then every newspaper man
in Iowa, except one, has wasted more
time hanging around the post office in an
ticipation of an appointment of Public
Printer, than the office is worth
If Charley modestly refers to himself
as the one excepted, we beg to assure him
that he Is mistaken There are two. We
