The criminal docket was closed today
when Lee Joy entered plea of guilty.
There are several cases on the law dock

do not seem to be ready for trial, it is
quite probable the jury will be dis

and cost the county less than at any
term for long time.

Lee JOY Pays a Fine.

Lee Joy, indicted by the grand jury
for assault with deadly weapon upon
one Tom Loui, a countryman of his, this
morning pleaded guilty to simple as
sault, waived time for sentence, was
fined $50, and is now free as bird. The
chances, are that Tom Loui was as much
in fault as Lee Joy, but as there is no
getting at the truth in a Chinese case,
anyway, Prosecuting Attorney Jayne
wisely made an average of the case and
accepted the plea of guilty to simple as
sault. A Chinese oath, like China
man, is delicate and fragile thing, and
adds about as much to the solemnity
and truthfulness of their statements as
it would to that of murderer testlfying
in his own behalf.

RAILROAD DECISION
Contracts Releasing the Company from
Liability in Case of Injury Are Void.

A decision of importance to railway
beneficial associations has been rem
dered by the United States court OF ap-
peals.
An employe of the Burlington named
Miller obtained judgment against the
company for damages occasioned by a
derailment in Colorado. The company
set up that Miller was a contributor to
the Burlington Voluntary Relief asso-
citation, an organization for employees,
and in his application for mem bership he
agreed that whatever amounts he might
claims for damages arising out of in
juries for which he drew benefits. The
court sustained demurrer to this plea,
and the railroad com pany appealed from
this finding. The court of appeals sus-
tains the court and afirms the judg-
ment.
Judge Thayer says that several we'll
considered cases sustain the theory of
the demurrer-the courts holding that
employees may elect whether to take
benefits in such an association or to re-
serve the right to sue the employer, and
that such contracts are not contrary to
sound public policy; but he remarks
that in this case the plea of the de-
fendanf failed to show with requisite
certainty that the corporation had
legally obligated itself to the members
to maintain the organization and to
supply the funds necessary to run
it. 1t did not appear that if the relief
association was at any time short of
funds member could maintain suit
against the company to recover the
amount due him. Neither did it appear
what money, ii any, the corporation
had contributed to the association, but it
did fairly appear that the moneys ex-
pended by the relief association were
paid from moneys deducted from the
wages of the members. The corpora
ton had not shown that the arrange
ment was fair and reasonable to the
men, and Judge Thayer hints that there
are reasons for holding it to be voidable
for lack of valuable consideration.
Judge Caldwell, as perhaps was ex-
pected, took still more radical grounds
declaring that ''such contracts, in go fal
as they attempt to release the railroad
company from liability for injuries in.
fIcted on its employees through negli
gence, are without sufficient considera
ton, are against public policy, and ar,
void, and must ultimately be so de
clared by all courts"

weather and other Things.

1t seems that we are to have climatic
changes, as well as commercial ones, on
account of the opening of the locks.
Since that date the dull leaden clouds of
webfoot have sent their runners up the
old Columbia, and they have evidently
found a fine opening for extending their
business. Since Nov. 9th a regular
webfoot rain has prevailed, soaking the
ground as it has not been soaked in the
same length of time in years. Today
the air is balmy, soft and indolent, as

SOME WEATHER NOTES.
The Rainfall Unequaled since the Year
1875.

From Mr.. S. L. Brooks we learn that
rainfall so far this month has not been
equaled since 1875. In November of
that year trifle over inches of raiu
fell. We have had, to date, 2.S5 inches
of rainfall this month, 2.65 falling during
the present storm. The barometer is
low, 29.44, and still falling, with the
thermometer at 55, indicating more rain.
Contrary to the stories that the rain is
confined to the territory Immediately
along the Columbia, the storm is gen.
eral, extending south to Los Angeles,
and east at least as far as Idaho. Snow
is falling in the Blue mountains apd at
Baker City and other points east.
a peculiarity of the storm is that it is
unaccompanied by wind, dead calm
having prevailed through it all This is
the more noticeable when the reports
show that at Portland yesterday the
wind reached velocity of seventy miles
an hour, almost hurricane.
From o'clock last night to 8 this
afternoon .76 of an inch were added to
the rainfall. In Sherman county
farmers are plowing in the rain, and at
Bakeoven, Mr.. Burgess. who came in
day before yesterday, says the rainfall
has been heavy.

tranrdInary clerical divorce suit was be-
gun IN West Chester yesterday by Rev.
G. Heathcote Hills ngnlns. his young

ishloners and others telling him of GER
tain things concerning bis Wife. After
considerable hesitation, It IL said, he vls-
tied Bishop Whitaker. OF Philadelphia,
to advise him about entering suit for d.
vorcc. There Is but one cause admit
ted by the Episcopal priesthood as being
ground for divorce that being intldclIty.
It IL understood that hlI subsequent ac-
lions were according to the advice of the
bishop.

vorcr proceedings AT once commune
Gated with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs
Pierson, OF New York city, and Thurs
day night they were in West Chester
pleading with Rev. Hills to withdraw

choir boy who will be brought into the
case. One Is said to have made n writ
