ered,' etc., and contained n provision
| authorizing the company to deliver the
fallse to any connecting carrier, which
exempted II from any loss which might
occur after such delivery. Held: First
The company could obligate itself to

! is any such fraud or unfair conceal
ment, it will exempt the carrier from
| responsibility. Fourth II tho shipper,
before shipping the valise, was informed
| OF the custom Of the company to ship
! money through ils money order depart
! meut, and shipped his money in tho va
| lise without disclosing that fact to the
| company, the defendant would be re-
lieved from liability. Otherwise the
company would bo liable Fifth, The
receipt Of tho Pacific Express that it re.
ceived the valise in good order from the
Texas Express, prima facia established
| The liability of the former to the latter
and shifted upon it the burden of proof
to show by preponderanco of evidence
that in fact the money was not in the
valise, or that the valiso wasnot in good
order whom received by them. Affirmed

The Casselton Reporter relates this incident
on one of the bonanza farms of that section:
''Last Saturday afternoon a very serious a5='
cident occurred among s.. G, Dalrymple's
harvesting outfit while at work on ''Ken-
tucky.' Smiths farm, south of this city. 1t
seems that several harvesters were cutting
on the piece of grain. A temporary halt was
made, and the field boss, having dismounted
from his horse, leaving the animal loose in
the field, got into buggy belonging to j. D.
Carpenter, the foreman, and drove off on an
errand. The caperings of the loose saddle
horse alarmed a team Of fine mules attached
to harvester and they started on a furious
run, the driver of the team, who had dis
mounted to adjust some part of the machine,
barely escaping runover and being seriously
if not fatally hurt. The mules, with the har-
vester attached, run into the next harvester
ahead, starting that team TO running also.
One of the mules of the first team was thrown
completely over the platform of the second
machine, and the other two were so badly
cutby the sickle-knives in rapid motion as
to necesstate the immediate shooting of
both animals. The mules were valuable
ones, costing 5000, and their loss, together
with the damage to the harvesters, amount
ing to 81, 000.'
