Liability for Baggage.
ALL TRAVELLERS SHOULD READ WHAT is PRINTED


ALL TRAVELLERS SHOULD READ WHAT is PRINTED
ON TICKETS.
Globe trotters should take warning from a
decision rendered by Judge Nehrbas, in the
city court, Thursday. 1t was in the case of
Downey against the Inman steamship COM
pany. The suit was one to recover $500 for
loss of baggage by the burning of the Inman
steamship City of Montreal. Louis J. Grant
appeared for the plaintiff and Henry G. Ward
for the company.
The plaintiff proved that he had lost $500
worth of baggage. The defense was that the
company was only liable to the extent of $50,
as on the ticket it was stipulated that it ac-
cepted no further responsibility. Sure enough
the tickets of the company did bear such stip-
ulation. To strengthen the defense decision
of the court OF appeals. in the case of Steers
against the Liverpool. New York and Philadel-
pho steamship company was found, in which
1t was said concerning such tickets: I'm alb
sence OF fraud. cOncealment or improper prac-
tlce, the passenger is supposed to have read
the terms of the ticket and acquiesced there
in" The plaintiff argued that in his case
there had been concealment, the stipulation
was printed in small type ON the back, and his
attention was not called to it, but the ticket
was given to him in an envelope. Judge
Nehrbas, however charged the jury to find a
verdict in strict accordance to the law, which
they did, and Mr.. Downey will get but $50.
1t is a fact well worthy of notice that this
ruling applies not only to steamship tickets but
to any contract which may be printed ON rail-
way tickets, express or telegraph blanks In
England this question has been agitated and
settled by a law providing that any company
wishing to put such contract upon its tickets
or blanks must secure the signature of the pur-
chaser to the same or it is not binding.

The Ethics of Cannibalism.

NATURAL STEP FROM KILLING STRANGER TO
EATING HI,I.
II. II. Johnston in Fortnightly Review.
No doubt long before man was quite deter
mined as species or genus. there existed
among his progenitors the same vaguely de-
fined tribal idea which is so marked in the
balloons. and which, to certain extent, in
iuences the condition of most species of apes
and monkeys. The advantages and duties of
combination must have been even more evil
dent and understood by hm-by his yerv
rdison detre-than they are by the intelligent
African balloons, who, in their little tribal
communities, protect and assist one another
though they may attack and kill strangers from
other alien families tribes.
Early man, compelled for purposes of self
defense and effectual attack to subordinate in
diyidual rivalry to combination of his broth
ers and sisters and cousins against the attacks
of wild beasts or of hostile fellow-men. or carry
out successful raid on coveted feeding
ground or to pursue and do to death some
elephant or wild bull, would soon acquire the
conviction that it was inexpedient-and conse-
quently wrong-to gratuitously murder q fell
low tribesman, unless under overpowering in
dividual provocation-such as the attempt on
the part OF an uncle to share a hoard of oysters
or the too marked attentions of q cousin to
ones cOurted bride.
Consequently social condition would be
reached similar to that of most existing savage
races. wherein there is normally peace and
security among the members of the tribe, but
where no obligations to humanity in general,
to extra tribal mankind, was recognized It,
therefore. follows that III this stage of morality
1t is not wrong to kill fellow human if he does
not belong 70 your community. Nay more,
it is meritorious; for pristine man and the ex-
listing savage was and is penetrated by a vague
understanding of this terrible struggle for ex-
istence in which are involved, and SO far
from framing such proverb as 1.-The more, the
merrier," he would find satisfaction in killing
stranger by the feeling that it meant one
more rival out of the way-one more competi-
duce got rid of. Once you have killed your
man. reasons the modern savage, and no doubt
reflected primeval humanity, once the initial
crime, if crime, is committed why neglect such
good food, why not eat your slain enemy?
These human types would be as little influenced
by sentimental considerations at first as a hun
CRY lion or a half-staryed hyena.

New York correspondence of the Baltimore

he wore patent leather shoes and comfortable

him salary away back for 1887 and 1888 The
general has, therefore, temporarily abandoned
the crusade against Satan to fight his enemies

the head of the forces in America. The
trouble arose from Gen. Moore's efforts to sell

With a shout the boys poured out i'm his wake

The iremen arrived just as the president

A Society Drama.

From the Lincoln (Neb) Journal
80, count, you desire to marry my daugh-
terri,
These words came from the lips of Reginald
de Montmorency, the millionaire banker, as he
stood in the sumptuously furnished parlor of
his mansion of G street, facing distinguished
gentleman of foreign appearance. The latter
fervently replied;
Eyes, yes, do"
"Tll let You know my decision by tomorrow;
by the way, count, my daughter and have ar
ranged for a little supper at Orsmby's cafe this
evening. Will You join us?"
with pleasure"
Gladys de Montmorency reclined on an ex-
ceilently upholstered ottoman in a boudoir,
the furnishing of which must have cost good
deal of money.
There was a PARKWAY look in her eye; there
was far-away look in her other eye.
She was thinking of one who was dearer to
her than life. She was thinking of the splendid
Count Bologni, with his lustrous Italian eyes,
and of the excellent chewing-gum he had given
| her.
She was summoned to the library. where her
father, the opulent banker, stroked her silken
| hair and said:
GLADYS, the count has asked for your
| hand
That's business, father; there are no flies
| on the count"
Are you sure, my daughter, that he is your
kind of people?"
dead sure
Because, my child' and his voice grew
tremulous with emotion, ''because 1 fear me
much that he is not count at all Methinks
that when was erstwhile at Omaha / saw him
as waiter in a restaurant. My child, o, my
child! These gray hairs would indeed go in
sorrow to the grave-this old heart would be
| rended In twain if were to see you in the
soup"
The lovely girls breath came in gasps; she
twined her beautiful arms about his neck and
| whispered:
What are we going to do about it2'
'Harken." her father replied; II have a
scheme-number 207; series ID. Well take
supper with him this evening, and I'll put him
to crucial test. Until then let us abide in
peace. Kiss me again, my angelic child"
Myriads of lights were cleaning in Ormsby g
magnificent cafe when Mr.. de Montmorency en-
tered with Gladys on his arm, queenly in her
beauty and grace.
The count was already there, and the three
sat down to table together.
What no, waiter! Come hither!"
This stern command from Mr.. de Montmor-
ency was instantly obeyed.
The waiter came to the table.
Gladys could feel the color leave her cheeks.
She knew that the moment for the great test
was come.
Even the stern lips of her father quivered.
and the cold perspiration was on his brow as he
said:
Count, my daughter and 1 only care for q
steak and cup of coffee. Will you order for
us?"
The count rose from his chair. and his ring
| ing voice could be heard throughout the vast
| room as he said.
''SLAUGHTER IN THE PAN AND DRAW ONE IN
THE DARK TWICE"
".
Reader. there is but little more to add.
Crushed and broken, Gladys retired to a con-
vent to end her life in quiet and solitude.
The count left for his native country on foot.

night took fire and he persisted in the flames
