the shore of Lake Superior for about twen-
ty-seven miles, and then in northwesterly
direction to Yerm Ion lake, a distance
of about seventy-tive miles. 1t is being
built for the sole purpose of giving an
outlet to the Vermilion lake iron mines,
which are supposed to be the best on the
continent; there are millions of tons of
iron in sight, and the trouble of mining is
very light. These American mines lie on
ly about twenty miles from the Canadian
boundary, and the same immense range of
iron extends far into the Canadian terri
tory. This same American company have
a charter to extend their railway to the
boundary line, at which point the Thunder
Bay Colonization railway expects to con-
meet with them. By this proposed railway
Port Arthur would be over GEO miles
nearer to Chicago than it is by rail to- day.
The distance between the Port ana Duluth

can be made with the Omaha road, which
runs straight south to Chicago.

novel feature of the days amusement
will be the decision of the wager between

man, and Mr.. O'Brien, of Saltwater. in
which the,former has wagerd 5000, that
the latter cannot sit or stand in a scull,
devoid of outrigging, and propel the same
for the space of one minute with
one oar, without upsetting. 1t is under
stood that Saltwater Will be at Minnetonka
en- masse to witness this novel feat. and
| that 1t will prove one of the greatest at
fractions of the regatta there is little
doubt.
1t should be borne in mind that the race
to-day is to be rowed on Crystal bay in the
lower lake, by which change the course is
reached direct by the st. Paul & Manitoba
trains, thus avoiding the vexatious
delays and waits incident to
steamboat ride made necessary
by locating the course on the upper
lake. By this arrangement parties from
st. Paul, Saltwater and Minneapolis, can
get their dinners at homo and then reach
the lake in good time to see the sport, and
arrive back home from one to two hours
earlier than they could in the other two
days of the regatta. Trains will leave St.
Paul in the afternoon for the lake at 1:3O,
200, 800, 100 and 4:30 p. N. Fare for

ents, vs.. The st. Paul & Manitoba Rail
road company, appellant.
Syllabus-A railroad corporation which
undertakes to transport live stock for hire
for such pursons as choose to employ it,
assumes the relation of a common carrier,
with such notifications of the common Law
liability of carriers as arise from the
nature of the animals and their capacity
for int1icting injury upon themselves and
upon each other. The liability of the
carrier for his own negligence is not modi-
fed by the facts that the bailment relates
to live stock, or that by agreement the
owner accompanies the property and exer-
cises care respecting it during the trans.
portation.
The rule of law that common carrier
of property cannot by contract relieve
himself from liability for his own negli-
gence is applicable to the carrier of live
stock as we'll as of inanimate property.
Neither by an arbitrary agreement linn
iting the measure of damages can the car
rier be discharged from the part of the
AAoNAAASJ 1O1 A1O OWA ACS4lSOHC0 HulCu Tie
law imposes.
By the terms of a contract for the trans
portation Of a car load of horses the de-
fendant was discharged from any liability
for any cause, excepting the wilful negli-
gence OF its agents. By other
terms of the contract it was
agreed that in case of total loss
the damage should in no case exceed the
strued as in effect an agreement for abso-
Lutte exemption from liability, except for
wilful negligence, and in case such contract
of exemption should not be sustained,
then that the liability of the defendant
should be limited to the sum named.
Held, not valid as exempting the defend
ant in whole or in part from liability for
its own negligence, to the extent of the
value of the property.
The order denying a new trial is af-
hrmed. DICKINSON, J.

HARD CASES.

Who Were Hauled Over the Goals In the
Municipal Court Yesterday.
There are few men so importunate as
Chas. Thompson; like the paised hawk in
Patience, fate has swooped down upon
him and, in the vernacular of the street,
played him for all he was worth. He
walked into the court room yesterday
morning on his stumps, and this is no
figure of speech, for to tell the truth the
poor fellow is as bankrupt in legs as he is
in friends and money, which is to say that
he has none to spare of either. It is bad
enough, heaven knows, to have to make
ones way in life without legs, but when a
man is deprived by untoward fate of these
useful extremities, how much greater
calamity it is to make what little the good
Lord has left to him the servile creature
of drink, for that which bereaves the mind
of its power and dethrones the intellect, is
even greater misfortune than to be minus
arms or legs. This is the condition of
Thompson; he has no legs, and whenever
charity bestows coin he blows it in for
drink. On Thursday evening this segment

Special Meeting Last Night-The Chemical
Engine Satisfactory - More Supplies
Wanted.
A special meeting of the board of fire

consider the matter of the arrival of the
chemical engine. Commissioner Parker
reported that the chemical engine and
hose cart had arrived, and that on inspec.
tion 1t had proved to be satisfactory and
was ready to oe put into service. On mo.
tion of Commissioner Hughson the board
accepted both.
The chief engineer reported the follow
ing wants to put the chemical engine into
use: A house, one pair of horses, one set
of harness, four men and furniture for the
house.
On motion of Commissioner Parker, the
president was requested to send a com
munication to the city council asking for
another double tank 100 gallon each, chem
ical engine for the Fifth ward; also for
thirty new fire alarm boxes.
DR.. Berkman is to be employed by the

$500 per year.
The chief was ordered to purchase gongs
for engines l, 8 and 4.
ReSoLred, That the secretary be instruct
ed to notify the council that the chemica
engine had arrived and had been accepted
by the board, and that at the present time
there is no place in the city to house said
engine (the central fire hall, corner of
Eighth and Minnesota street not being

of the board the chemical should be placed
temporarily in the Fifth ward until the CEN

ing for the purpose or authorize the board
to do so and also authorize the board to
