Whether the issues presented by com
plant shall be tried by jury, when the
demand for it is made before the trial
commences is to be determined upon the
complaint itself and the character of the
case substantially made by the evidence
cannot affect the decision upon the de-.
mand.
A motion by defendant for Judgment on
the pleadings cannot be granted on the
ground that the complaint assumes to set
forth an equitable cause of action, but
fails to state some fact essential to such
cause, of any character of action, pro-
vided a cause of action is set forth in it.
Nor can a motion by him when
plaintiff rests for dismissal
be granted on the ground that'the cause
of action set forth in the complaint re-
quires trial by the court, and tbe one
proved requires trial by jury, if the one
proved is within the allegations of the
complaint.
Where the action is by a principal
against his agent, and the complaint
charges specific acts of conversion of the
principals property, and also makes out a
case for and demands an accounting, if
the court finds that defendant did control
and not account for specific items of
property it may order judgment for the
values of these items, though it do not state
the entire accounts between the parties.
Application of the rule that error which
cannot effect the result, will be disregard
ed.
Evidence held sufficient to sustain the
findings of fact. Order affirmed.

scholarship of no ordinary degree, for in
the course of few years after leaving
Ashburton we learn that the late shoemak-
er was taken into the family of Lord Gros-
venor as private tutor and travelling COM
panion to his son, Lord Belgrave.
There are five cobblers named who be-
came famous astrologers, and ten preach
ers. Among the latter were George Fox,
of the society of friends, and Thomas
Shillotoe, the shoemaker who stood before
kings. Among politicians who began as
shoemakers, are named Thomas Hardy, of
''The State Trials and George Odger, po-
litlcal orator.
The American examples are Noah Wor-
cester, D. D., "The Apostle of Peace;''
Roger Sherman, the patriot; Henry Will
son, the ''Natick Cobbler," and John
Greenleaf Whittier, the Quaker Poet" Of
Henry Wilson it is said: Among the po-
litical leaders of modern times Henry Will
sen long held a conspicuous place IN the
United States. His early connection with
the gentle craft procured for him the ia
milisr and not unfriendly SobrtqGet, the
'Natick Cobbler." Wilson was born at
Harrington, n. e., Feb. 16, 1872 From
his school-boy days until he entered on po-
litical life, he seems to have been connect
ed both with shoemaking and farming,
but chiefly with the former occupation.
Part of his time, viz, from 1882 TO 1887, he
was thorough, DING son of Crispin, work
ing on the stool from daylight til
dusk. From 1887 to 1910 he was still
connected with the trade, but in the more
ambitious position ,of a shoe manufac-
turer. In the year 1910 he devoted himself
to the life of a politician. The Office Of
president OF the Massachusetts senate vas
held by him in 1851 and 1852. Three ysars
after this he became senator as q repre-

An exciting scene took. place at
Cross's geological establishment, in
Earl street, Liverpool, few days ago.
Mr.. Cross wished to have his elephant,
Jumbo H., photographed. Several pho
tographers declined to do it, being
afraid to face the animal; but at last
Messrs. Brown, Barnes & Bell under
took the task. Early in the morning,
before the place was open to the public,
the elephant. which is always chained
up with heavy anchor-chain, was un-
fastened and let out in the yard, but
when he saw the camera directed towad
himself, and the photographer manipu-
lating it and looking at him through it,
he got excited, and with one blow Of his
trunk he smashed the apparatus, and
was ready to deal a second blow at the
photographer, when some of the staff
of the menagerie rushed to his assist
ance and succeeded in restoring til,
animal to his normally docile condition.
On being assured that the elephant
would now keep perfectly quiet, the
photographer commenced his work
again with another camera, and, after
several attempts, succeeded in obtaining
good negative.--St james Gazette.

Of late years, especially since the
abolition of what were called the taxes
on knowledge, viz. the excise duty on
paper and the newspaper stamp, and
the consequent establishment Of the
penny press, many new words have
been introduced by the rapid and care
less, and also by the semi-educated
penman who cater for the daily and
weekly press. A number of old En-
glish words-current in the United States
have been reintroduced into English
with the gloss of apparent novelty, but
also with the unmistakable stamp of
vulgarity broadly impressed upon them.
And not alone in the press, but in So
ciety. Men of education, some of them
moving in high or the highest circles,
have condescended to repeat in their
daily or customary conversation the
language of costermongers and of
grooms and jockeys, and to use it as if
itwere good English. The basest slang
of the streets is but too frequently heard
among educated people, who ought to
know better than to use it, and has in
vaded the forum and the Senate If it
have not yet penetrated into the pulpit.
"Bloke,'' "dufer,'' and s.cads' are
words familiar to aristocratic lips.

Fitz Noodle to his companion at an
evening party; 'tshe's dreadfully nicely
groomedl" As if the fine girl had Just
been frotted ont Of the stable, after .
careful currycombing or rubbing down.
Even ladies-but fortunately not gem
tlewomen-have caught the contagion
of vulgarity from their husbands, lovers,
or brothers, and defiled their fair lips
with what is called fast language, aud
with words which, if they only knew
their meaning and origin, they might
blush to pronounce--if blushing were
still in fashion. = Gentleman Magazine.
