GREGORY SPEIKER CASE REVERSED
Judgment Was Given on an Erroneous
Basis.
The Supreme Court So Decides, and
the Case is Remanded for
Re-Trial.

The Supreme Court has rendered de-
cision in the case of Victor ]. Gregory,
respondent, VS.. ]. ]. Speaker, appellant,
Sacramento County case.
The court below found that in Janu-
airy, 1854, Speaker sold to one Lee, who
was an agent of Gregory, the formula
and good will of the business of manu-
featuring and selling Roberts Kidney
and Liver Bitters," and agreed not to
manufacture or sell any of the bitters
in this county. In February, 1854,
Speaker entered into a combination with
L. NJ. Lash to manufacture and sell the
same bitters under the name of ''Lash's
Kidney and Liver Bitters," and for
several years, under the name of T. NJ.
Lash & Co. and the Lash's Bitters Com
pany, sold them in the county and
through the Stae and after dissolving
his connection with Lash continued to
sell them under the latter style, con-
cealing from the plaintiff the fact of his
connection with Lash, and telling
GregOry's customers that they were
different and better bitters, and cutting
off thereby most Of his profits.
The court overruled the plea of the
statute of limitations and issued a per-
petual injunction restraining defendant
from manufacturing or selling in Sac
ramentO County Roberts Kidney and
Liver Bitters, or any preparation COM
pounded of its constituents, from con-
Quoting the sale of Lashs Bitters in
such a manner as to interfere with the
good Will of Roberts Bitters anywhere
III the State, and from drawing away
plaintiffs customers; also, that plaintiff
recover the net profits made by defend
ant by the sale of the bitters from
February D, 1884, to October 1, 1892
which were fixed, by an accounting had
under order of the court, at S51 So.
The Supreme Court holds that the
facts as found by the lower court show
that fraud was so ingrained with the
breach of contract by defendant that
the action-as regards the bar by the
statute at least, and the claim of de-
PENDANT that the fraud charged is
merely for the purpose of excusing de-
lay in the commencement of the action
must be treated as one for relief on
the ground of fraud
1t holds, however, that the court
adopted false rule as to the measure
OF damages, proceeding upon the theory
that, as in trademark cases, the de-
PENDANT was cOmpellable to render to
plaintiff the net profits of his sales In
cases like the present the measure of
damages must be the value of the
business lost to plaintiff, and nothing
appearing as to that, the allowance of
damages beyond nominal sum is an
error.
The judgment is therefore reversed
and the cause remanded for new trial

Monte Company was by far the best
since the opening in the tent over a
month ago. An entirely new perform

includes coterie of variety actors whose
work is far above the average. The
Burtis sisters character change artists
Clarence Mason, the wonderful trapeZe
king, as well as the contortionist and
the midget are ali we'll skilled entertain
ers. DR.. Clark has not lost sight of the
mirthful feature in his show and there
are as many occasions as ever 10 laugh
through the performance. All the Old
favorites. including superlatively comic
al Mike. the Irish comedian. Thomas
Kelly, the sweet voiced baritone, and the
graceful Henley sisters are retained. The
whole constitutes an entertainment worth
many times dime, the price of admit
lance.

ALWAYS MAKING TROUBLE.
People Who object to Our Old-Estab-
lished Customs.

Some people are finding fault because
the stuff in China Slough runs through
the culvert that connects it with the
river. It is hard to please everyone. The
pipe was put there to drain the slough
into the river, and it is simply doing it's
duty
1t is the city's supply pipe that is out
of place. All the dirt and rubbish that
is left on the bridge by traffic goes
right to Il: the refuse from scows and
living boats is thrown into the water
about It; China Slough itself goes into
the river at that point, by sipage, for
more than half the year.
The river falls more rapidly in the
spring and summer than the slough,
hence the latter is constantly flowing
Into ii all around the supply pipe. II it
were possible to get the latter in a bad
spot. does anyone suppose an effort
would not be made to do ii? To have
done otherwise would have been incon-
sisteat with local municipal customs
About two dollars and six bits would
now repair the recently macadamiZed
blocks on Eleventh street, but they are
being torn to pieces so rapidly that by
next year il will cost several hundred
dollars TO fix them.
IT would be possible TO have the
streets sprayed and both dust and mud
avoided, but now we have both.
Why should China Slough be pre-
vented from flowing into the river near
the city's suction pipe? There are some
people who are always trying to ring
IN new and strange ideas here, but
they might as well quit.

were to be considered and discussed by
the teachers. After some little talk
upon the subject, he called upon differ
ent teachers to give their opinions. An
animated discussion followed which
was much enjoyed by the listeners.
There were some very good points
brought out on both sides Of the ques-
ton.
No. 1 will require much careful study,
as will also the others. rs the reason
ing power of child or man cultivated
more by mathematics or by other sub
jectS combined?" was question pre-
Sented to the teachers for careful study.
DR.. Brown stated that while accuracy
in mathematics must be observed, the
lines need not be drawn so closely about
language and history. All children's
spontaneous interest should be fostered.
The general opinion seemed to be
that at present too much time was be-
ing devoted to arithmetic, and not
enough to language. Language is
much more essential to us than arith-
metic. There are two great questions to
be considered: Are we to train children
to support the needs of society, or the
natural course of development in the
individual as to what he needs? Should
his imagination be fostered?
There must be an adjustment of the
two, else they will often conflict.
At the conclusion of DR.. Browns
lecture Mr. Howard spoke for few
moments, and then the meeting ad-
journed until s o'clock in the evening.
IN THE EVENING.
Liberty Hall in the Foresters' build
ing was crowded last evening with
teachers and others, and the pro-
gramme was carried out as published
yesterday. The feature of the evening
was State Superintendent Blacks
Talk With Teachers and Patrons,
which was full of useful suggestions
and practical advice.
At the conclusion of the exercises
there was an informal reunion of the
teachers, while discussing nice
lunch, during which Neale's Orchestra
rendered a number of classical selec-
tons from the best authors-Strauss,
Wagner, Mascagni, Delibes, Gonoud
and SOusa.

ADJUSTMENTS

At the Clunie Opera-house last evening
the Eldrldge- Hallett Stock Company
presented the tarce-comedy pink Domi-
noes" 1t is play that is capable of De-
ing made broad and suggestive, or
merely sportiye and expository of the
hypocrisy OF some and the foolishness of
others. 1t all hinges upon the belief of
one wife that most husbands like to go
OFT for q lark, and the positive faith OF
another wife that her husband Will not
indulge in even innocent diversion with
out her knowledge and consent. Inc
piece is well mounted and cleverly
played. 1t served to prove how versatile
is the company, and how even Mr.. Hal
let: can get down out of the "heavles"
and prance as a low comedian. 1t served
to prove how clever is Miss Eastman in
double part, one a registering maid, the
other an apparently dsmure and molten
slve house servant. 1t served also TO IN
troduce for the first time with this COM
pany Miss Anita Bridger, a handsome
and graceful actress, who reads dis
tlnctly and has considerable dramatic
ability, probably more than the play
affords her opportunity 10 manifest. The
farce gives Miss Annie Mitttln another
opportunity to demonstrate how easily
she can assume any role committed to
her, how O genuine artist can adapt her

Mr.. DeFauil was very successful in

for ''asides" which IS amply penetrating,
and yet preserves the fiction that those

reading and quite too EXPLANATORY. These
are faults he can correct, because he has

IMPROVEMENTS CONTEMPLATED

Ventilation Of the State Capitol and
Carpetfng the Offices Projected.
The State Board of Examiners yes
terday examined the offices in the Cap
itol building, with view of ascertain
ing what Improvements are needed
in them. The last appropriation for
two years was only $1,000, of which
$1,000 was to cover a deficiency.
If the improvements talked of yes
terday are carried out, they will create
another deficiency as they contem-
plate carpeting all the offices on the
ground floor except one of the Attor-
ney-Generals rooms and the Office Of
the State Treasurer and also the offices
of the Secretary of State and Adju-
tant-General on the second floor. AS
the building has no ventilation, it has
been partially decided TO cut through
the outer walls and insert gratings to
let in the outer air to the offices. The
contemplated Improvements will create
about $4,000 deficiency.
