Fair Ground Privileges.

The state board of agriculture will hold a
meeting at the fair grounds this forenoon.
After the routine work will occur the sale
of privileges. \ good deal of interest in
this sale is anticipated, as the flattering
prospects Of the fair in itself, and the large
attendance which will be inevitable. render
the privileges very valuable. Nearly all
the board are expected 10 be present, and
the privileges, both on the ground and
within the buildings, VIII be sold The
meeting is called for 10 o'clock and the sale
will take place at once, after the board
completes its session.

The new court house to be erected for
Trail county is to cost $50, 900. But the
question has arisen where to locate the
building. Trail county has had several
diversified county seat wars and long litiga-
ton in consequence. 1t is thought that
Caledonia, Oh the extreme eastern edge of
county, which has heretofore held the
records, will be selected by the commission
for the new building, and it is said that by

The Coal War.

The round was made yesterday among
the coal dealers to see If there was any
change in the situation as to the great coal
fight. 1t was found that the price was
$3.50 and 1878. just the same as il was last
Thursday and Friday, and that the situa-
tiOn was precisely the same as it was last
week. One firm did advertise to sell for

Syllabus-A partnership may take security
by way of mortgage in the firm name, to Sc
cure partnership debt. In the case of a
chattel mortgage, the legal title of the mort
gagged property vests in the mortgage with
out foreclosure, unless otherwise stipulated,
subject 10 the right of redemption. No de
mand need be made upon one who comes
wrOngfully into possession of personal prop
erty previous 10 an action by the owner to
recover the possession thereof. But de-
mand before action is necessary TO be made
upon one who purchases or receives such
property in good faith from a wrong-doer.
The same rule applies to bona fide purchasers
at public sales under process. y demand
made upon an agent simply interested with
property for safe-keeping is insufficient. But
when the defendant IN his answer sets up
claim of ownership and consequent right of
possession in himself and demands a return
of the property, and thereupon proceeds to
trial upon the merits, he cannot afterward
object that the demand was made. 1t seems
that such affirmative claim of ownership and
demand for return based thereon is
sufficient evidence that demands not relied
on and would have been unavailing. Order
affirmed. VANDERBURGH, j.

Syllabus-The plaintiffs charter, state
laws 1867, ch. 1874, sec. 10, as amended state
laws 1877, Oh. IFS, construed and held TO i'm
pose no other duty upon the plain
til in respect to logs destined below the falls
of St. Anthony than to separate and turn
them loose in the Mississippi river and con-
duct them by means of a smear boom west of
the pier at the head OF the dam, above the
falls and below the suspension bridge, as di-
rected by sec. Ii Of the charter.
The charge for bOomage in such cases al
lowed by the charter, is not alone for turning
the logs over the falls but also to compensate
the company for its OUTLAWS and ex-
penseS in maintaining boOms and for
its services in receiving, driving
and asserting logs in conformity with the re-
quirementS " the charter. In March, 1879,
the legislature passed an act entitled, 'sAn
act relating to the Mississippi Boom corpora
tion," another and separate organization
which was given jurisdiction on the river be-
low the falls of st. Anthony. In addition to
provisions relating TO the powers and duties
of such corporation, the act embraced a sep
arate section (section o., which imposes add.
uonal duties upon the plaintiff corporation.
in respect to logs going below the falls. Held
as respects such section the act is uucOustf-
tutional. its subject matter thereof not being

A corporation is not bound or estopped by

Creole Society in New Orleans.

OF recent years the creole element in
New Orleans society has lost, to con-
siderable extent, that prominence
which it formerly possessed The old
creole families havo been slow to adapt
themselves to the changed conditions
of life in the Crescent City. Tenacious
of old ways and forms, clinging with
characteristic French fondness to the
homes endeared to them BY thousand
tender associations and pleasant men,
ories, they have retired more and more
within themselves as the waves of mod
ern progress have swept with ever in
creasing force across the familiar paths
they and their ancestors had trod for
many generations, and gradually OBJ
liberated the landmarks which told of
the luxury and splendor of the ante
bellum period. The loss Of their slaves
and the ravages of the war reduced
most of these old families from afflu-
ence to comparative poverty. Most of
the creole mansions in New Orleans
are falling into architectural decrepi-
tude; but the occupants are still as
stately, as dignified and as courteous as
in the days of their prosperity. They
are, if anything, more exclusive than
before, and general society knows them
less and less as the years pass by. Some
of them of advanced years have never
crossed Canal street, the line which
separates the old city from the new.
