In his opinion, Judge Ross says:
When the case was before the court on
demurrer to the bill it was held that the
contract entered into January A, 1869,
between defendant and Jose de Arnaz,
Victor Uatsssaustegui and Francisco
Molleds, in so far as it reserved TO those
partisn the unrestraned right to estab-
lsh such rates for tho supply of waite. to
private persons as they may dsem eS-
pedieat provided that such rates be
general, aud nubjact, also. TO thu implied
condition that the rates be- reasonable,
was a valid contract in the hands of
Arnez and his associates, and passed by
assignment to the complainant corpora
ton. Subsequently defendants answered
the bill, and UPON tho issues thu, j)ined
proofs were taken and tho case has been
heard on its merits.
The Affirmative deienses were that
three OF the members of the board
of trustee, of San BuenaventG-a,
Tico, Chateauusuf and Escandon, were
present AMI auth oriz9d the execution
of the contract. Tlco had prevoualy
been elected clerk of the town and

A l.osson In Dog Training.

A way of training dog to answer its masters call has been adopted by Head Keeper Manley of the Geological gardens, which, while it may not be entirely new, is certainly effective. He possessed q valu- able dog whose only fault was that of in dependence, and, whistle and call as much as he might, the dog refused to take the slightest notice. One day Mir. Manley caught the dog in his cellar and tied Q clothesline about it's body just behind it's forelegs The line was several yards long, and with a tight hold on his end Manley took the dog out for walk Every once in awhile he would whistle, and when the dog failed to respond he drew in the rope hand over hand with the startled animal turning a succession of somersaults in the dirt. A few such lessons were enough, and the dog is now model of obedience -Philadelphia Record.

absordingly interesting. In the princi- pals department the study has been satisfactory.
 "The out door work this year has been a great blessing to the students.
 "In reviewing the achievements ana possibilities of the school, there is no doubt but that an increased endowment and large acquaintance are our needs Our handsome $25,00O buildings, some argue, are q sign of wealth, forgetting the outlay necessary to maintain such an institution.
 Among the advantages that have made the year profitable have been lec- lures by distinguished men and women
 "'rhe members of the present senior class have worked well and deserve their diplomas"
 The extra afternoon session of the board was opened with religious exer- cises by Miss Lorna Haygood. The com- mittee on extension of work called upon Mrs. Trueheart who continued the re- port by reading two communications, one from Dr. Marc Polk, the predecessor of pr. Annie Walter at Fooehow, China, the other from Rev. c. F. Reid of Shang- hai, China, asking the woman's board to grant to the parent board land for the extension of the Central church building at Shanghai. The hstimate of Sl9,3l0 for China was adopted.
 The estimate of $4250 on Indian ter ritory was adopted
 The estimate for printing. contingent cies, etc. was S60O0. With $19,310 for China, ITO for Mexico, $17905 for Bra gil, $4250 for Indian territory, this makes a total of $83 235.
 The following resolution was incorpor- ated in the report of the committee as adopted:
 "Resolyed, That the Woman's Board of Missions appreciates the importance or Japan as a mission field, and regrettlng it's inability to open work there at once. looks forward with hope to entering that interesting field at the earliest possible date"
 The report of the committee on publi- cation was read. and in this connection Miss Barnes of Georgia, editor of the Little Workers, made speech of some length.
 The committees report was quite lengthy.
 After much discussion the salary of Miss Barnes was raised $300

 Meridian, Miss, May 14.-(Special)- Information of double killing, commit ted fourteen miles south of Meridian Tuesday evening, reached this city at a late hour last night.
 Oliver Edwards, who recently left his wife, and Lucinda Thompson, wife of Chris Thompson, were shot down with a double-barrelled shotgun by the lat ter and instantly killed.
 Jealousy was the cause of the trag- edy.
 There was no eye witness to the kill ing, and Thompson positively denies his guilt, but the evidence before the jury of inquest was sufficiently strong to war rant his arrest. He was lodged in the county jail last night, where he will be held to await the action of the grand iury

Bathing.

Bathing is conducive to health, because there are in tho surface of the human body millions of small openings called pores which must be kept free in order that they may properly do their duty in removing the waste matter of the human systcm. It is calculated that there are three miles of precipitation tubes in the human skin, and that these remove three or four pounds of water and salts from the system in every 24 hours

United Confederate veterans,
 New Orleans, I4a, April 23, 1895. Circular No. F.
 To All Camps and Veterans, and To All Whom It May Concern:
 In answer to the many letters received and inquiries about railroad rates, the following is the latest:
 At present the rate stands 1 cent per mile each way for all territory outside of Texas and within 400 miles of Hous- ton. Tickets on sale May IT and IS.
 The limit for tickets as agreed by the Southern Passenger association was ten days; now the Memphis-Cairo district make a straight fifteen day limit ticket, with an extension of fifteen days addi- tional by deposit of ticket with terminal lines at Houston, and the Southern Pas senger association, covering most of the southern states east of the Mississippi river have extended the limit from ten to fifteen days, with an extension of fff- teen days on deposit of ticket with joint agent at Houston. The Central Traffic association-C Chicago. east, in cluding New England-have made no rate yet; also the Western Passenger association-west and northwest are still undecided as to the rate.
 Extension tickets will have to be sur rendered to joint agent at Houston and receipted- for, which will be returned when party desires to return home. This will enable parties to remain in Texas with their friends nearly a month, as the lines out of Houston will undoubt- edly make excursion rates during the reunion period for parties desiring to visit friends throughout Texas. The rate applies not only to delegates and vet erans and their families, but to any one who desires to go. Please notify all members of your camp and have the information published in your papers, so all will be informed.
 A $5 maximum rate has been made for all points in Texas with a one fare rate for the round trip for points within the distance where $5 would be the single fare.
 The Southern Pacific railroad gives a rate of 1 cent per mile in each direction from New Orleans. Tickets on sale May 20 and 21 limit fifteen days, and fifteen days extension, provided tickets are de- posted with joint agent at Houston.
 Col. S. r. B. Morse, the very obliging and highly capable general passenger and ticket agent of the Southern Pacific railroad, is entitled to the thanks of the veterans for his valuable services in securing the five days additional limit and the fifteen days extension, and for his patriotic efforts to help the cause of the veterans in every way
