two companies made up from returned pris-
oners of war and various old members gath
cred in again, and by six companies of en-
tirely fresh men, mainly recruited in Onon-
daga and adjoining counties by Lieut.. Col.
NJ B. Birdseye, whose popularity in that sec.
ton was very great. 1t was the universal
opinion that these new companies were COM
posed of the finest men enlisted at that late
period of the war. Indeed, most Of them had
grown to the age of military service since the
war had begun. Certainly the reputation of
the regiment did not suffer by this infusion,
for it continued to be favorite with superior
officers, and was constantly called upon for
perilous duties. Throughout its four years
service it was engaged in over one hundred
encounters with the enemy, and there were,
from firstto last, about three thousand en-
llstments on its muster rolls. ANY general
might be proud to boast of the signal ex-
PLOTS of such a regiment without injustice to
any other organization under his command.

Ingenious Young Women.
[Troy Telegram.1


Monday there was a big excursion from the
collar shops to Saratoga. Hundreds of Troy's
pretty young ladies went to Saratoga.
The sky threatened rain
The young ladies wore bustlcs
PERHAPS there was no connection between
the threatening Sky and the bustles-and per-
hapS there was.
Shortly after the excurSionists reached Sar-
atoga the rain began to pour Many of the
young ladies with their escorts were seated in
the rarlor of hotel when the rain began to
fall. The prospect was dismal as viewed
from the hotel windows. Within it seemed
sad, 900, The airy and tasty dresses of tho
excursieuists must be spoiled by venture on
the street Umbrellas were few and far be-
tween, and there seemed an entire dearsh of
outside coverings.
But witness yhe ingenuity Of the young la

furnished for his use, gives notice thereof
to his employers who thereupon promise
that they shall be remedied, the servant

although defective was not SO imminently
and Immediately dangerous that a man of
ordinary prudence would have refused
longer to use it. His subsequent use of
the defective fundamentally under such
circumstances would not necessarily or as
a matter of law make the servant guilty
of contributory negligence. Under such
circumstances the servant may recover,
although aware not only of the exist
ence of the defects but of the
risks to which they will naturally expose
him. A railroad company is not relieved
from the charge of negligence in sending
out an employe with defective engine,
SIMPLY because it did not have sufficient
time after notice of the defect to repair
it, and had no other engine in proper con-
dition to send out.

Syllsbus-A complaint which states
facts constituting cause of action of
either legal or an equitable nature is not
demurrable because framed with view to
relief of another kind than that to which
the facts show the plaintiff to be entitled.
By contract between plaintiff in an
action and his attorney therein the former
agreed to pay the latter for his service a
certain sum if he won the cause and
nothing if he failed to do Sc. The con-
tract contained this further stipulation
respecting the agreed com pensation: 81
hereby agree that he, (the attorney, J
shall receive said money from
the Minneapolis & st. Louis railroad out of
the amount due me from said railroad
company for running through my land, to
be paid when said suit is settled. Held
that the agreement was not champetous
nor illegal.
The contract construed as an euitabIe
assignment of portion of the chose in
action referred to emitting the attorney to
receive the same specifically, the condition
respecting payment having been fulfilled,
the railroad company having before the
contract was made but without the knowl-
edge of the parties, deposited in court the
amount of the debt referred to pursuant
to statute.
1t is considered that the attorney had
right by force of the contract and with
out reformation of it to recver out of the
fund in court the stipulated sum.
