THE GOOD sAmAR1rANs.
A Large NIeeting-Address By Ho
 James Gallagher.

Large rGeetIng-Address By Hon.
 James Gallagher.
 CarlIs Opera House was literally packed with people last evening on the occasion of the Good Samaritans' meeting. At the low est estimate there were twenty-five hundred people in the house. President Luddington presided and after the opening prayer made brief address in which he gave the boys and young loafers who have been in the habit of coming to the meetings and making dis turbances and injuring the property in the house fair warning that if they did not con duct themselves properly they would here after be refused admission to the house on Sunday evenings. The result was that good order prevailed through out the evening.
 The singing last evening was led by Broth CTS Cameron and Chaplain and after singing America" Hon. James Gallagher was in troduced and made fine address. In the course of his remarks the speaker referred to the great temperance movement which start ed under the name of Washingtonian. He said it was noble movement that spread all over the land because it was founded on the principle of love, it's principal weapon being Glove thy neighbor as myself" He con- graduated the Good Samaritans on the fact that they were working on a similar princi- ple He thought he saw in this movement what would eventually drive out the rum monster from the family and the home. The movement, he said, was the correct one for the suppression of intemperance. He charged them to entirely ignore the 'spy system" and let the public see that their la bor was labor of love and nothing else. We have no controversy about the evils of intemperance, said the speaker, for that question is settled; the only question is how to get rid of it. He thought the work should commence right in the family by people not drinking themselves or asking others to drink.
 The speaker was listened to with deep at tention by the large audience in attendance.
 After the addresses, MT. George Mackie gave solo on the piceolo in fine style. Then followed a song by the Opera quartette en- titled Dancing on the Wave" The quar- tette was composed of Messrs. Keegan, Col liRs, Carroll and Sheehan. They sang with good voice and style. After harmonica solo the quartette again sang a selection which was we'll received

under a contract with the defendant, was operating its train on the defendants road for hire, and employed the operatives neces- sary to the business, the operatives being by the provisions of the contract, while on the defendants track under control of the de- fendant's orders. The collision was due solely to the negligence of the conductor of the defendants freight train. The plaintiff was badly injured. The defendant interposed as defe6se that ze1gler was g fellow servant of the defe- conductor, and therefore, in law, the Adant was not liable in damages for plaintiffs injuries. The case was tried at the Litchfeld Deceln- Der term of the Superior court of 1884, be- fore Judge Andrews, and decision rendered in favor of the defendant, 1pon the ground that the plaintiff was a of defendants freight, and there fore the defendant was not liable. The Su- prene court reversed the decision and grant ed a new trial. This decision makes an i'm portant precedent, not only for Connecticut, but throughout all the States of the Union. The only question now to be settled in the case is the amount of damages the plaintiff is entitled to recover.
