SOME persons are puzzled to know
why the rose, the most beautiful of
flowers, should be intermixed with
sharp thOrns, but the same persons are
more puzzled, or more correctly stated, A,
vexed to the point of feeling outraged
at the devastation of the slugs and
rose bugs. The more delicate and
beautiful the bloom the more it seems
a prey for the bugs which gather 10
quantities and bury themselves in it
ere it has opened its fragrant petals.

Weather Vagaries.

Between one and two yesterday
afternoon there was a queer exhibi-
ton of the weather. A heavy cloud
came in through the gap at Lake
View. 1t rolled up somewhere out
of Washoe Valley and grew every
moment in size and density. After
coming through the gap 1t started
north and took the line of the noun
tains west of the city. The storm
cloud was well defined and it simply
worked like thing of life over bill
and ravine. 1t was such a tangi-
Bile looking affair that one looked for
it to tear and rip when its lower sur
face came in contact With the trees.
Is come at race horse speed, driv-
en- by a heavy wind and in a quarter
Of an hour after its appearance the
air was filed with driving snow and
the heavans grew almost as dark as
twilight. In half an hour the storm
cloud had steered clear of the town
and was headed for Genoa. After
it passed, the foothills were white
with snow and at the northward the
sky was blue and feecy with summer
clouds.
Since the above was in type the
storm came back from Genoa.
1t is claimed that the astronomers
predicted this queer weather, because
three of the big planets are in line
for the first time in hundreds of
wears.

4 case of considerable importance to both
insurance companies and insured has re-
Gently been decided by the law eourtof this
State, after prolonged litigation On Nov
4, 1856 the farm buildings Of Owen White
near Liteh6eid Corner were destroyed by
fire. They were insured 10 the Phoenix
Insurance cJmpsny of Hartford, Conn for
one thousand dollars, and after the IRE Nj
White demanded the insurance. But the
buildings were vacant at the time of the fire
AMI had been for several months prior
thereto, and a. the policy provided tltai i
the buildings should remain vacant or iri-
occupied without permission Of the eompagy
for more than ten days, the policy wU'ttd
he VOID, the company declined TO pay
Thereupon suit was brought by Mr.. White
through his attorneys, Messrs. Savage
Oakes Of Auburn and the case was tried al
Auburn at the April term, 1890, Messrs
Baker, Baker & Cornish Of tins city acting
a. counsel for the insurance company The
jury rendered verdict for the plaintiff fD'
the amount Of the policy and the defendant
carried the case 70 the Law CONT on motion
for new trial and exceptions. The law court
sustained the defendants position and seni
the case back for It new trial. The secon5
trial was had al the September term, iS:ii
in Auburn and the Jury again rendered =
verdict for the plaintiff and again the defen-
daot carried the case to the law court.
The last decision Of the law court has
just been received, holding that the verdict
liz against law ami cannot be sustained.
The court in their last opinion annoant"'
the doctrine that when an insured occupied
building becomes unoccupied the risk OF IL
destruction by FIRE is presuated 10 he Me"eb5
increased and while, under the Maine
statute, the burden of showing that the risk
was thereby increased ia upon the insurers,
the presumption alone which follows The
fact of vacancy is sufficient to sustain that
burden, unless rebutted by the peculiar con
tlition, construction and surroundings of the
buildings. This, in effect, throws the bur
den of proving that the risk is not increased
BY such vacancy, upon the insured, and th'
cont holds that in Mr.. Whites case tue
ieing situated in the outskirts of small
village, unprotected by fire system
strengthened rather than overcame the pre-
sumption of increase of risk and that he
cannot recover for his loss.
II will be seen that the law of the case
has extensive application and it behoove.
all persons to obtain vacancy permit when
their insured premises are to be unoccupied
for any length of time.
