Reversed the Decision.

An interesting decision WIS yester-
day filed in the Clerk of Courts Office
by Judge Baxter, of Fergus Falls. 1t
was a decision Oh q motion by Tay-
lor, Calhoun & Rhodes, attorneys for
the railroad company, in the case Of
Michael Bonik, and orders the verdict
of the jury in the district court re-
versed and gives the case a new trial.
The matter, which was a personal
injury case, came up at the last gen
eral term of court. BOnik, who is q
labOrer, alleged that he had been en-
ployed to work for the defendant
company on a reconstruction train. He
was assigned to work on the cutoff
and before going to work was riding
to- dinner at the boarding camp. In
getting off the train hestepped down
on the bumpers which just then sepa-
rated by reason of the train starting
AMI his foot was crushed. The jury
in. the district court gave him YER
dict of $500 and the company's at
| tOrney's made a motion for a new
trial ON the main ground that the
evidence did not sustain the verdict,
the plaintiff being guilty of contribu-
tory negligence. Judge Baxter held
with them and the case will probably
be again heard at the next term OF
court. Donat Trettle and A. p.
Blanchard appeared as attorneys fol-
Bonik. A stay of so days has been
! granted.

He often said that "thaout no disre-
spect t. human bein's, it did appears eff
some bosses he'd full as much sense Us

drew many IN illustration from his fav-

habit Of his was the cause of much con-
fusion to young man to whom MIR.
Stone was talking.
The young man was q professional
musician who had been spending par:
of the summer at neighboring farm
house, and had had the audacity to fall
in love with Mr.. Stones pretty daughter
Jenny. He was listening to the farmers
various reasons for opposing his suit
one summer evening; just before his re-
turn to the city.
"For one thing" said Abijah Stone,

n Mississippi Continues to Rise Steadily
at St. Paul.
ST: PAUL, May 26.-That the waters
of the Mississippi will cause considerable
damage within the next day or two now
seems certainty. The people living
along the river banks are apprehensive,
and many more families in the lower
grounds have deserted their homes. AT
8 a. m. the government guage showed a
height of 1875, and at noon had scarcely
increased perceptibly. It remained al
most stationary until dark, and all dan
ger was supposed to have been passed.
After dark, however, the rise began
again, and by midnight the gauge
marked depth Of 1873, and the water
still rising. 1t became apparent that a
heavier body Of water than was antici-
pated was pressing downward, and the
best authorities expressed the belief that
the rise would continue steadily and
bring the river to the danger mark by
night. Should a general storm occur
during the day great havoc would be
caused along the banks of the Mississippi.
