EXPERT FEES.
Rulings OF Interest to the Medical Fra
ternity.

Rulings OF Interest to the Medical Fra
ternity.
The medical fraternity will be interested
in rulings made yesterday by Justice of the
Peace Cook in awarding judgment for the
plaintiff for $50 in the suit of DR.. +. Won
Bulow against Edward Fladung, being $50
for Is professional visits and 500 as fees in
testifying as an expert on his trial for
murder.
In May, 1891, Fladung's wife was found
dead from a bullet wound, and in the same
room with her he was dying from a gunshOt
wound just above and between the eyes
Eiadung was acquitted, there having been
no witnesses to the fatal affray. He had
been taken TO the Receiving Hospital and
there Tor long time lowered between life
and death.
His partner sent for the plaintiff, and the
latter's services we're accepted there until
the patient was out of danger. Fladuug
wished to make II appear on the trial that
so far as he was concerned the doctors
services were gratultous, but he did not in
form the court who was responsible for the
services, which he accepted. However,
with the conflict on this point, the court
was satisfied from the circumstances that
Fladung did employ him.
The other question in the case was
whether the plaintiff can claim cOmpensa-
IIOH OFtI the pei Glen allVWtu an ordinary
witness by The statute for his attendance
in court. Under the weight of authority
and following its bend, it seemed TO the
Judge TO be consistent with the policy Of
the law that the testimony OF competent
scientific men can be obtained without loss
TO themselves, nor does one waive his
claim by not making demand for tile extra
com ensation.
The remaining question was az to the
value OF these services, the State Medical
Society having established $40 as a reason
able fee. But the mos. that could be said
of this tariff is that il is suggestive of what
the body Of physicians as among themselves
think they should have. The court settled
on $50 for a days attendance.

November and December have been abnor-
malIy severe for Big Stone Gap, an unusual
amount of ice having been formed. Even the
pools in the rivers were frozen over, and any
number Of ice houses could have been filed, a
very unusual occurrence. Next summer will,
in consequence. be brilnful of health.
Big Stone Gap for October, with its Isl
inches, had tho twelfth smallest amount OF
rainfall in the state, the lowest being OLA
inches.
The Valley Street railway has bought all
tho lots in blocks Ut, Isl and ls2 in plat for
yards for switching and shop purposes.
The gradual bcttcrmcnt Of the times is cvi-
denced by the temperance of blue prints OF
coal and acreage lands, and town lots. An
untimely frost may soon nip these in the bud,
but they will come forth again with tic flowers
that bloom in the spring. There is no doubt
about it; the boys are whctting their tongues
and preparing to talk and to trade.
The City Fathers should corduroy, plankor
macadamze the wagon approaches to the East
Fifth Street Bridge, otherwise after few
rains they will be well-nigh impossible.
