ANOTHER SUMMONS.

Death of DR.. Henry w. Robinson at Seven
O'clock Last Evening.
One by one the early settlers of st.
Paul, the men who have been identified
with its growth from the time when the
city numbered but few hundred popula-
ton, through the intervening years up to
its present proud proportions, are called
from labor in this world to rest in the
hereafter. The latest is DR.. Henry W.
Robinson who expired at 1920 last evening
at his residence 306 Sher-
man street. DR., Robinson has been
ailing for several weeks past
but continued up and about and in general
supervision of his drug store, 101 West
Third street, until Wednesday, on which
day hewas forced to succumb to the inroads
of complication of diseases affecting his
heart, liver and lungs, and which finally
resulted in his death as above.
DR.. Robinson was born in England in
1914, and was therefore in the sixty-ninth
year of his age. He came to America in
1S4S, and settled in SanFrancisco, Cal, where
he remained until 1852, being the only
druggist in the city at that time. In 1852
he sailed from that city to Melbourne,
Australia, where he gave his attention to
the drug trade until 1855, when he returned
to his native land. In 1856 he again re-
turned to the United States and located in
Chicago, where he remained until 1859,
when he removed to this
city, at once embarking in the
drug trade, which he has since
continued up to the hour of his death, his
being the oldest house of the kind in the
city. In 1857, while resident of Chicago,
he was united in marriage to Miss j. Nc
Kinley, who survives him.
1t can be safely said that he does not
leave an enemy behind him, but multi
tude who will feel that they have lost
true friend when they peruse this painful
announcement.

QUESTION OF PRIVILEGE.

QUESTION OF PRIVILEGE.
Hon. Jas. Smith, Jr., rising to a question
of privilege, said he noticed in the Pioneer
Press of this morning an item charging
that he introduced bill relating to White
Bear that contained a woodchuck, and was
fraud. Generally, he said he didn't
notice criticisms upon his acts,
but as this was matter
in which his constituents were interested,
he felt it due to himself to make an sxpla-
nation. He simply wanted to say that the
man who penned the article, or at least in
spired it, knew that the bill was re-
fsrred to the full delegation, just as is
always done with matters affecting the city
or county, not previously agreed upon.
The simple fact is that there are opposing
elements in White Bear, an up town and
down town interest, which are at logger
heads. One interest wanted this bill, and
without examination, he introduced it and
asked its reference to the delegation where
it could be carefully scrutinized. Person
ally he had no interest in the bill, and in
presenting it he simply did his duty, and
rather than seeking to steal march, he
invited the greatest publicity possible by
having it referred to the whole delegation.

The sorenson Murder Trial.

After an all-night siege, the jury in the
case of Ole Sorensen, tried for the murder
of VIM. Johnson, came into court yester-
a verdict of manslaughter in the second
degree. This is the way eleven of the first
jury stood. The punishment is not more
than seven or less than four years con-
fnement.
After the verdict Mr.. John w. Willis,
counsel for the prisoner, made a motion
for an arrest of judgment, on the ground
that the case was submitted on a legal
holiday, the 22d of February, Washington's
birthday. This is a nice point, and if de-
cided favorably it will result in the pris-
oner's discharge.

1882.
The Red River Roller Mills, appellant, VS..
Carrie A. Wright, administrator of the
estate of Geo. B. Hughes, deceased, re-
spondent.
Syllabus: I. A grant by riparian
owner of the lower part of his land, to-
gether with the use of the water of the
stream for the purpose of operating the
mill of the grantee, "free from interven-
tion," does not convey the use of all the
water in a regular flow, or in its natural
condition uninterrupted Or unaffected by
the reasonable use of the stream above,
but the grant must be construed as sub
ject to the reasonable use of the stream
above by the grantor, leaving the question
of what constitutes such reasonable
use to be determined by general princi
pies of law Independent of the grant.
II. The right of riparian owner to the
uninterrupted and free use of the water as
it flows naturally past his land is not an
absolute right, but natural one qualified
and limited by the existence of like rights
in others, and hence liable to be modified
or abridged by the reasonable use of the
stream by others.
III. The principles which govern the
detention or diversion of water also govern
in respect to the deposit of waste matter
in the stream, viz: reasonable use must
be made and nothing mere.
". The law does not lay down any
fixed rule as to what constitutes reason
able use of the water of a stream. What
constitutes such use is matter of fact
L. L. III Il
of the case; but like any other finding Of
fact is subject to review, and will be set
aside when not justified by the evidence.
V. In determining what is reasonable
use of the water of stream, regard must
be had to the subject matter of she use, the
occasion and manner of its application,
its object, extent and necessity, the nature
and size of the stream, the kind of bust
moss to which it is subservieut the impor-
lance and necessity of the use claimed by
one party, and the extent of the injury
caused by it to others, and all other circum-
stances bearing upon the fitness and pro-
priety of the case under consideration.
VI Evidence of uniform and estab
lished custom in like cases is competent,
although not conclusive upon the question
whether a use is reasonable one, because
it affords some proof of the tacit consent
of all parties interested to the general
convenience and necessity of such use Of
that which is common right.
VII. When it appears that the use of a
stream by an upper riparian owner inter
feres with the reasonable use of it by a
lower riparian owner to his material in
jury, either by the interruption, diversion
or pollution of the water, the burden is
upon the former to show that his use IL
reasonable.
VIII. Evidence and facts in this case
considered, and held not sufficient to JUS
tify the finding of the court that the use
Of the stream by defendant complained of
was reasonable one.
Judgment reversed and new trial Or

ants, and G. A. Broadwater & Co., gar

respondent.
Syllabus: A creditor domiciled in IL
Iinois executed in that state an assignment
to resident of Louisiana, of a debt due
from resident of Minnesota, and paya-
BILE in the latter state. Afterwards, but
before the assignee had given notice of
such assignment to the debtor, d creditor
of the assignor, residing in Canada, at
tached the debt by service of garn1shee
summons upon the debtor in this suit.
After the service of such garnishee sum-
mons and at the time of the disclosure by
the garnishes, the assignee appeared and
gave notice of his claim to the debt, and
was made party to the debt. BY the law
of Minnesota an assignment of case in
action is valid and complete without notice
to the debtor, and an attachment of the
debt by creditor of assignor, before
notice 20 the debtor will not entitle such
creditor to priority of right over the as
signee if the debtor receives notice of the
assignment, pendente lite, and in time to
avail himself of it in discharge of the suit
against him. But in Illinois transfer of
chose in action, although valid as be-
tween the parties without notice to the
debtor, yet is not complete so as to vest
title absolutely in the assignee as against
attaching creditors of the assignor, until

Chas. G. Perkins, APPELLANT, VS.. Joseph
Trinka, respondent.
Syllabus: The evidence in the case con-
sidersd and held not reasonably tending
to support the allegations of the answer
that the promissory note upon which this
suit was brought was obtained without
consideration by the fraud and false rep
resentation of the plaintiff, and that it
was executed by defendant under duress.
Hence, that the verdict is not justified by
the evidence. When parties whose rights
are questionable and doubtful and who
have equal means of ascertaining
what these rights are, come together and
settle these rights between themselves,
court must enforce the agreement to which
they may fairly come at the time, although
judicial decision should afterwards be
made showing that these rights wore diff
ferent from What they supposed them to
be, or showing that one of item really had
no rights at all and 80 nothing to forego.
Order denying a new trial reversed.

TEMPERANCE.
Mr.. Hicks moved that the committee
on temperance report back the bill referred
to it two days ago, prefacing his motion
with the remark that it was well known
that the withholding of a bill at this time
meant its death.
Mr.. Collins, chairman of the committee,
said he hoped the motion would not be
adopted. He understood that a
bill would soon reach
the house from the senate, which had been
almost unanimously united upon after
full and thorough consideration of the sub
ject.
Mr. Hicks said if the motion was not
adopted he should be forced to offer res
olution asking an investigation of the
reasons which had operated to cause the
| committee to withhold its report upon the
| bill.
Mr.. Collins replied that the committee
had fully considered the bill
| and agreed upon its report, but
was delaying its report until the senate

| might be considered together.
The motion of Mr.. Hicks was lost. He
