liant.
SBIa5uS-The road Of defendant having got
into bad condition, it was engaged in general re-
pairs of the same, by resurfacIng and taking up
the old and putting down new ties and rails
Plaintiff was in its employ as brakeman, on a
general train employed in drawing gravel for the
purpose of such resurfacing, and while so en-
p!oyed was injured by car on which he was act
ing as brakeman, running off the track in conse
quence of its bad condition,
Held that the rule that 1t is the duty of q
master to use reasonable care and skill to fur
nish to his servants safe and suitable in
struments and means to perform the service in
which they are engaged applies to the case. In
that regard the duty of the master and assump-
ton of risk by the servant are the same in case
of employment to make repairs, as in any other
employment.
Evidence considered and held sufficient to JUS
tify finding that plaintiff did not know and
might not, through using reasonable diligence,
be able to ascertain the dangers to which the bad
condition Of the track exposed him.
Order affirmed. GnFILLAN, C. j.

The course Of England in presenting
to the United States Government the
Arctic steamer Alert to assist in the
search Tor the Greedy party is a very
graceful act of international courtesy
which will be warmly appreciated. The
act is prompted in part by the recol:
lection Of the course Of our Government
when the English vessel the Resolute,
abandoned i'll the Arctic regions, was
recovered by American whalers, pur-
chased and repaired by the United
States and returned to Great Britain
The gift Of the Alert is most opportune
as we'll as graceful. The vessel is pc:
c1liarly fitted for the service being
standby built and we'll able, as was
shown by her record with the Mares ex-
petition, to undergo the special hard
ships OF Arctic navigation. Our Gov:
eminent would have esteemed il 6
privilege to purchase her, but the
prompt generosity of the English Gov
eminent cut short the overtures fo1
purchase.

of trichinosia, they are comp aratiYelyy

means general. From returns from
railroad and transp ortafian companies
slaughter hcuses, packers and shippers:
.conforned by those from boards Of
health, humane societies and experts
employed by the commission, it appears
that the utmost care is preserved
throughout that dead hogs are never
transported except to ofal rendering

refused transportation; that humane
laws and sanitary regulations exist at

of their kind in the country, which were totally
