SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT.
The following decisions from the Law
were announced yesterday:
CUMBERLAND COUNTY.


The following decisions from the Law
were announced yesterday:
CUMBERLAND COUNTY.
Maurice S. Fisher VS.. Elkanah E. Boyn-
ton.
Resoript by Walton, 1--WE think this
case was correctly decided. The defendant
gave written order for five thousand
cigars TWENTY-FIVE hundred to be shipped
al once, land the balance ON CALI Having
waited nineteen days, and having heard
nothing from his urder, he count rmanded
t and bought cigars elsewhere. The JUS
tice of the Superior court,b by whom the case
was tried without jury, decided that the
delay WIS unreasona BILE, and hat the ac-
ton to recover the price of the cigars was
not maintainable 1t is the opinion of the
court that the decision was right. Excep-
tons oveTrGled.
KNOX COUNTY.
sophronia e. Robinson VS.. The Penpsyl-
wanna lnsurar ca Company.
Rescript by Walton, 1.-The instruction
the jury, in effect, that if a building is
one hundred and eighty-nine feet away
rom dwelling house, and is used in part
for other purposes, itToaLnot be regarded as
a carriage house belonging with the dwell
ing house, and be so described in an insur-
ance policy, was erroneous. There is no
rule OF law declaring how near n carriage
house must be TO Il dwelling house o belong
with il. II it is on the same lot, and is act
ualiy used as an appurfance of the dwelling
house, the fact that it is one hundred and
eighty mine feet from he dwelling house
does not prevent its being regarded as be-
longing with the dwelling house; nor does
the fact that it is useG in part for other
purposes prevent its being 50 regarded.
These are cir cumstances which, in a case OF
doubt, may be considered by the jury; hut
we do not think the jury can he rightfully
ms trut ted as matter Of law, that they are
conclusive. Exceptions sustained.
YORK COUNTY.
George T. Fogg VS.. Alfred Roberts.
Rescript by Walton, I.-WLile the court
does not feel entirely satisfied that the YER.
dict in bis case is rightly we are of the opin.
ion that it is not so clearly wong as to
justify Sc tting it aside. Motion overruled.

characterization.

Certain newspapers are trying to bolster
up the administration and the Wilson.
German tariff. by claiming that the coun-
try Is pteeminently prosperous. We
have been told that mechanic. who has
been seeking employment for weeks be-
came SO disgusted on readlPg tho Every
Evening, few days ago, that he bundled
the paper up and threw 1t Into the fire,
saying that the intolerable untruths 1t
contained made him mad. 1t Is not sur.
prising that he should have felt provoked
and took this method of showing his dis.
pleasure. as his every day experience bore
testimony to the fallacious representa-
tlons OF that paper. and he could not
avoid showing how greatly his feelings
were aggravated. 1t Is matter of sur.
prize that any paper published in manu-
featuring city like ours should lend l.sslf
TO bolster up policy that has done more
TO depress business than all othsr Infiu.

THEIR ls certain infatuation anon gst
the majority of mankind to play the races.
The desire for rapid gain is one of the
curses OF the present day. Every man
wants to get rich-get rich quick. Games
OF chance seem to be the only avenue for
those who quickly acquire riches. The
gamblers know their victims aud hold the
greatest Inducements to get their victims'
money. Playing the raoes Is one OF the
hardest games to run up against and be
successful when the day is gone. What
doyou suppose the bookies are In bust.

Ing the races while hundreds are only like

The younger Blalnes have apparently
made bad maiches. Walker Blaiue's mar.
riage was dismal failure. and resulted In
thewlfs seeking and getting divorce from
him. Now there is a revival OF the report
that Mr.. and Mrs. Trdxton Beale have
separated finally. Proceedings for
divorce will be Instituted by Mrs. Beale
(neo Rlaine.) MIR. Beale has gone abroad
and Mrs. Beale Is with her mother at their
homo In Maine. Incompatiblllty OF
temper ls the reason assigned for the
separation. Mrs. Beale is the youngest
daughter Of the late James @. Blaine. apd
was married in May. 1894. to Mr.. Truxton
Beale member OF the most distinguished
Washington familles. and was supposed
to be a genuine love match and their
union was regarded with favor by their
mutual friends. Soon after the wedding
day MIR. Beale began to show signs Of In.
compatibility and his habits became quite
eccentric. The words Of the ministers of
the gospel. which they pronounced on
their marriage day: Let no man put
asunder, till death do US part" has no
lasting remembrance when incompatible.

and wife.
