Recent Legal Decisions.

A was insured in the Glen's Falls
Insurance Company, and the policy
provided that should the premises be
vacated, or should there he any In
creases In the risk by the erections or
occu patton of neighEoring buildings,
or by any means, without the consent
of the company Endorsed on the policy,
it should be void. Both of these pro-
visions were violated; and A, assum-
ing that his policy was avoided thereby
took out policy in the Wateftown
Fire INSURANCE Company, which con-
tanned the condition that If the insured
had or should have any other insif-
auce on the property unless it was in
dorsed on the policy or consented to
in writing, the policy should be void.
The property was destroyed. and In
| the action for the loss, Landers vs..
Watertown Fire Insurance Company,
the company defended on the ground
of the policy in the Glen's Falls In
surance Company, of which 1t had
no notice and had not consented that
it should stand. This defence pre-
vailed, the New York Court of ap-
peals, in October, through Judge
Andrews, deciding that the prior pol
icy was valid when issued, and was
not void, but voidable only at the
election of the Glen's Falls Insurance
Company. That company could
waive the forfeit,lie If Il chose to do 80,
and therefore the policy was in exist
ence.
A sum of money was handed to an
employer by his workman, with the
request that he should take care of 1t
for him, and it was placed by the
employer, with cthet money Of his
own, in his pocketbook, which was
stolen from his person. On demand
for the amount, theemployer refused to
pay, on the ground that he was not
! indebted therefor, but had received
the money as Il special deposit, which
he was bound only to keep with the
same care he kept his own money.
An action was brought for the amount
Schumacher vs.. Hinze, and judg-
meut recovered. Tie Supreme Court
of Wisconsin,, in October, affirmed the
judgment, Judge Lyon, in the opinion,
saying: The money handed to the
employer was not itself to be returned
but like amount was to he repaid the
workman. The transaction was not
therefore, a bailment or special deposit
but what, in commercial language, is
termed general deposit, which is moi
Il bailnent, but is in the nature of g
loan. The liability of the employer i
precisely the same AS that of bank
upon IA general deposit made with it,.

nvIahaw mud 1tsIdo

At the Residence Of A. Allen Howell,

oglebay and Bride.
The reception given by Mr.. and Mrs. A.
Allen Howell last evening at their elegant
residence, In honor OF Mr.. Earl oglebay and
his bride, nee Miss Howell, was one of the
most recherche and memorable re,
ceptions given in Wheeling for some
years, nearly all Of the people who ever at.
tend such social gatherings In the city being
present, from the Oldest Of our citizens to the
youngest of society people.
From TO II =. NJ, the rumble OF carriages
was heard along Chapline street rs they
drove up and deposited the occupants al
the door Of the brilliantly lighted
mansion into whose open portals the long
train swepts and where In the handsome cor.
ridors and parlors the merry aSemblagc were
made to feel at home by the hospitable host
and hostess.
About 10 O'Clock the bridal couple, accom-.
panied by nearly all the attendants at their
marriage, took their stand In u semi.circle in
the centre Of the large north parlor, beneath
the sparkling chandelier, which had been
beautifully decked for the occasion. Over
the heads OF the couple swung beautiful
white dove, bearing in its beak au olive
branch, while clustered about were numer.
Gus twigs OF green olive, with the rich fruit
glowing among the leaves
For the rest OF the evening dancing was the
amusement, The large north parlor and the
drawing room on tho second floor were set
apart for those who INDUCED in terpsichorcan
exercise, and the Opera House orchestra
furnished its sweetest strains for the dancers.
It was not until the wee sma' hours that the
last gay couple left the hospitable mansion
with pleasurable and lasting memories OF the
evenings swift hours.

A Rad Accident.

Yesterday afternoon an accident happened
In East Wheeling that may possibly result
seriously. Ami @. Gary, well known resi-.
dent Of the Fourth ward, had been over In
Manchester after load OF coal for a customer
who was in need Of 1t and could not afford 10
walt for carload that Mr.. Gary was expect.
ing from the country. He had started to re.
turn to the city and was at the city end OF
the Zane street bridge, where he turned short,
in order TO reach the scales, and 10 so doing
upset bis horse and cart into ditch. Mr..
Gary was thrown under thehoofs OF the horse,
which was struggling wildly to free itself.
Before assistance could reach Mr.. Gary he
was cut aud bruised badly by the sharp iron
loOfs Of the horse. He was so badly injured
that he could not walk, and 1t was necessary
TO take him home on shutter. DR.. Baguley
was summoned, and did all in his power to
make the injured man comfortable. Several
ribs on the left side are broken, and one on
the right side, while 1t is not known at vet
what other internal injuries there are.
Mr.. Gary for several years was one Of the
best bridge builders the B. & .. had in lis
employ. For two or three years past he has
not been engaged in the carpenter trade, but
has been doing hauling and general com.
mission business in small way. He Is the
father OF grown up family, and lives at No.

LOUISVILLE, KY, January 5-Rev. Geo.
o. Barnes, the mountain Evangelist Of
Kentucky, a modern Lorenzo Dow, has
been creating sensation in this city during
the week by his service at the Chestnut
Street Baptist Church. He Is a firm be-
lever in what Is termed faith cure, and at
the conclusion Of his service he calls up the
afflicted, anolnts them, pnys for their re-
coyery, and assures them all will be well II
they have iaith. Mr.. Barnes claims that
God never datnns, but that II Is the devil
who does, and he says, makes sickness and
disease. God heals Every day we see In
the newspapers the lie that Ut hath pleased
God 10 remove our brother" God did not
remove him. 1t pleased the devil TO re.
move him. 'GThe Lord gave, and the Lord
taketh away" Is lie started by old Job
when he was in deep affection. There Is
not word Of truth in 1t. The Lord gives,
but the devil taketh away. God has con.
situted US, he continued, that, though the
devil may lay grief upon us, II soon wears
out and time heals It up. The weeping

AT the conclusion OF each hours service
he invites backsliders and sinners TO come
forward and have their sin.sick souls cured,
alter which he extends an invitation to the
afflicted in body to come and be healed.
II none come forward he does not insist,
but says they will do 80 before he Is done

couraged at the apparent slow progress for
