fects the liability of railroads for goods

Railroad Co. vs. Mark Dill and
David w. Dill The defendants
shipped some household goods, and
brought suit in the Lyon county dis
trict court for damages sustained while
the shipment was in transit The
shippers had signed waybill, to which
was attached an uninte lligible HERO
glyphic which is seen on ali way bills,
the purport of which is that the ship
per releases the carrier from response
bility.
The shippers in this instance claimed
that they did not know that they were
signing a release. Judgment was rem
dered in the lower court and the su-
preme court sustained it The decision
was written bv Chief Justice Horton.
both the associate judges concurring.
1t is as follows:
A common carrier cannot limit his common
law liability by special contract in writing with
the shipper, unless 1t is freely and fairly made,
and the carrier cannot exact as a condition pre-
cedent for carrying stock Of goods that shipper
must sign q contract In writing limiting chang
ing the common law liability. II the carrier
has two rates Of charges for carrying stock or
goods. one If carried under the old common law

The English House.

The house of commons has six hun
dred and seventy members, of whom
four hundred and ninety-fve represent
England and Wales, one hundred and
three Ireland, and seventy-two Scot
land. The chamber in which it sits is
devoted entirely to legislative business
and debate, but has not sufficient sit
ting capacity to accommodate all its
members The object of this is to keep
the room small enough for business. II
the chamber were larger it would be
impossible to give public business such
an informal and conversational talking
over as is necessary t. n thorough un-
derstanding of the matter. There are
men with unframed voices; as well as
orators, among the mem bers, and the
opinions of tho one class should be
heard as we'll as those of the other; so
that members are willing to sit close for
the sake of hearing what they wish to
know about or to stay away when the
subject under discussion is of no inter
est to them.-Kate Fields Washington.

AS HE SAW 1T.
The Charge of the Light brigade Described
BY Russian.

BY a Russian.
Reuters special correspondent now
in Russia met in the course of his in
vestigations a steward, Ivan Ivano-
witch, who had been through the
Crimean war. He was wounded at
BalaSlava, and gave me, the corre-
spondent writes, a vivid description of
the charge of the Light Brigade.
I'VE were so sorry for them" he
said, they were such fine fellows, and
they had such splendid horses 1t was
the maddest thing that was ever done.
1 cannot understand it They broke
through our lines, took our artillery,
and then, instead of capturing our guns
and making off with them, they went
for us. had been in the charge of the
heavy brigade in the morning, and was
slightly wounded. We had all unsad
died and were very tired Suddenly
we were told: The English are COM
ing 'Confound themr we said. My
colonel was very angry and ordered his
men to give no quarter. l was lying
at some distance, with my arm band
aged, when / saw them coming.
They came on magnifcently. We
thought they were drunk from
the way they held their lances
Instead of holding them under
their armpits they waved them
in the air, and of course they were
easier to guard against like that The
men were mad, sir. They never seemed
to think of the tremendous odds against
them or the frightful carnage that had
taken place in their ranks in the course
of that long. desperate ride. They
seemed perfectly irresistible. and our
fellows were quite demoralized The
fatal mistake we made in the morning
was to receive the charge ofyour Heavy
Brigade standing, instead OF meeting it
with counter shock. We had so many
more men than you that had we con-
tinued our charge down-hiil instead of
calling halt at the critical moment,
we should have carried everything be-
fore us. The charge of your Heavy
Brigade was magnificent, bat they had
to thank our bad management for the
victory. We liked your fellows When
our men took prisoners they used to
give them our vodka Awful stuff it
was more like spirits of wine than
anything else. Your fellows used to
offer us their rum, but we did not care
for it; it was too soft and mild. The
Russian soldier must have his vodka"
