A Philadelphia paper says that there we're
166 arrests for drunkenness last Sunday in
that city, most of them where, according to
the police, all the taverns were shut" The
Philadelphia authorities probably now see the
folly of shutting up drinking-places on Sunday
thus preventing the drinkers from getting
away from the drink.

THE HIGHER COURTa.


SUpREME COURT
| international " Great Northern rail-
way vs.. Dawson ct al, from Smith
county. Opinion by West j. The pres
snt right of authority is to the etfec;
| that railroad corporation can, by CON
tracts, bind itself to perpetually main
| tain y permanent depot at particular
| place. While parol evidence may, in
a certain limited class of cases, DO re-
sorted To tor the purpose OF proving the
eXistance of any oral agreement pre-
cedent to the attaching OF any obliga
tio, under the written contract, such
proof must be directly to the point, and
must be clear and convincing i'll its char
acter. The amount found by the
jury, appears TO be large, and
under the very conflicting evil
dence as Ito ,the market value
OF the property under consideration, and
the great conflict in the testimony as to
the exact extent of the damage to the
appellees Occasioned by the removal OF
appellants depot short distance from
the point originally designated, the dis
trict judge would have been justified III
setting the verdict aside. This specia
matter as to the verdict appears to have
been brought specially and fully to his
consideration on the presentation of the
motion for new trial. He concluded
| that the verdict. on the whole, WAS war
ranted by the evidence, as there was no
material error in the charge Of the court,
or in declining to give the instructions
| asked, we do not feel authorized here
in disturbing the finding of the jury,
upon the sole ground that the proof was
not sufficient TO support it, when it APP
pears that there was, in fact, before the
| Jury, lawful evidence upon which their
verdict could be based. Affirmed.
Smith, Murphy * Peak VS.. Field, from
Dallas comfy; report of Delaney,
l., adopted. The statement of facts be-
ing filed after adjournment OF court
without an order allowing such to be
