Uuion City. The Postmaster there
had not heard of the boy, and on
inquiry failed tc 6nd him. Accord
ingly he sent the letter to the Dead
Letter Office.
On arrival here it was opened,
and it had money in it; it was re-
turned to Union City with a long
letter of Instructions to find the
writer it possible. After inquiry
the boy was at last found, and was
requested to go in person, claim tht.

The Law and the bog.

ohS oL Cncm ne cannot recover
damages unless he shows that lie
WAS In the exercise of due care.
The full bench of the supreme court
lately so held. according to the BoS-
ton Transcript, in the case of Arte-
mus Hodgson against Charles II
Hodgson and William T. Taol.y.
The three parties live in Ded.-
ham. The plaintiff was out riding
Eaccompanied by his two dogs. A
| shepherd dog owned by the defen--
dant followed the ca rriage and got
INTO a light with one of the plain
titf's dogs. He went up to the
dogs and seized the defendants dog
when it turned Or him and bit his
hand The suit was brought und r
public statutes, chapter l02, section
SO, and the plaintiff claimed he
was not Obliged to prove at the
trial that he was in the exercise Of
due care. Tie court holds that he
was and says: "In the case at bar
the plaintiff Voluntarily submitted
himself to danger aud We have no
doubt that the ruling of the court
below was right.
+. Another dog bite case to call
forth an expounding OF the law is
shat of Jesse O Boulester, of Rock
vile, against Charles w. Parsons,
II Walpole. The bite in this case
!. as inflicted upon a horse, which
which died in consequence and the
plaintiff sued for his loss. The
plaintiffs brother was driving an
express wagon, drawn by a pair OF
horses, along a country road; and
iihrsthe rear of this wagon was
aGoth.r horse attached to singl.
wagon. The defendants dog ran
out of his masters yard and bit the
horse attached to the single
vehicle.
The defendant contended it was
negligence on the part of the
plaintiff to lead a horse harnessed
in wagon behind as was this one,
and thereupon the plaintiff re-.
-quested the court to instruct the
jury in substance as follows: "a
man has right to lead horse in
the way and manner described, end
the mere fact that he was so Lead
ing a horse is not such evidence of
negligence as would preclude the
plaintiff from recovering in this
action for the bits of the dog"
The judge at the trial refused so to
rule, and submitted the question to
the jury whether the method of
travelling adopted was negligent
and was such as to induce an at
tack by the dog The Jury found
for the defendant, and 10 the re-
fusal of the court to rule as above
the plaintiff excepted.
The full court sustains the plain
tif's exceptions and says: "We are
of opinion that the ruling requested
should have been given in substance.
While the doctrine Of contributing
negligence has been often said to
apply co an action on the public
statutes, chapter l02, section SO,
and we have no doubt it does apply
where the plaintiff incites or pro-
vokes dog, and it may be in other
cases, the doctrine has no applica-
ton to the case at bar. The lead
ing of horse behind wagon was
sim ply condition and not in any
sense contributing cause of the
injury. To hold that the
question whether leading horse
behind a wagon should be SUBJ
mitted to the jury as evidence Of

LONDON, Nov. 17.--The manner
in which the Swazi deputation has
been treated is greatly commented
upon. The Envoys, six In number,
recently arrived here from Swaxi-
land, in order to ask the British
Government to annex Swat land
on account of the treatise with the
Transvaal. The Swazis were
brought from South Africa in the
steerage, and were lodged In a
poor dwelling in the west Of Lon
don. But they have been received
in audience by the Queen at Wind
sor, and were much impressed with
the military pomp which they wit
messed. Yesterday the Swazis saw
the Marquis of Ripon, Colonial Sec-
retary, who, 1t Is asserted, to-day
ordered them to return to Africa
to-day, threatening them with the
anger of the "great Queen" If they
did not do 80.

4th. Good roads pay. The Ro-
man Empire tried It. England has
tried 1t; France knows It to be true;
Germany, Spain, Italy, all Europe,
say good roads pay. And it has
become known in several sister
states and in several counties of
our own state. How may we know
It pays? A horse can draw twice
as much on q macadamized road as
on dirt road in its best condition;
four times as much as when the
dirt read is in an average state; I;
and ten times as much as when the
dirt road is turned to mud by the
rains of fall and spring. Those who
have never tried good roads may
doubt, but those who are familiar
with them know. What a great re-
lief from present conditions to be
able to drive buggy to LAUREL
vile In three hours, or Ilcsboro in
an hour and half; or to haul a
load of three tons from South
Bloomingville to Logan with a sim
gle team and return home the same
dayl What added values would
farms soon hayei How much more
would the labor await! What add
ed attractions to farm life to know
that an hour or two would bring
one to the county seat in summer
or winter! Isolation would be un-
done, and a realization of the COM
mon interest in the community's
welfare would make us brothers all.
Farmer, is it any light matter to
you, that you might just as we'll
draw to market, with the same ex.
pense, four times the load you now
bring7
Let us consider these things.
In Hooking county there is levied
this year for roads and streets,
$4,000. This sum If applied with
good sense and in business man
ner would build a new piece of
road on right principles four miles
in length in any part of this coun-
ty and in many parts of the county
three and four times as much.
Under the present management
this money will be worse than
wasted, spent in piling new mud
on the road or digging bitches
across roads on steep grades, that
strain and break the vehicle;
whereas, if just this small amount
was rightly spent for five years, a i
first class road could be built across
this county-a road whereon one
horse would do the work of four.
Now is not this a thing Of inter-
estF Let us wake up and do some-
thing in this matter.
