It's Liability Limited.

A package, the value of which was not
given, was intrusted to the American Ex'
press Company at Detroit in September
1892, for delivery to II. ID. Smith, OF
Washington. 1t was safely carried to
Toledo and delivered over to the Adams
Express Company, the continuing carrier
from Toledo to Washington. That night
a collision occurred between two trains, a
fire resulted, and the package was de-
stroyed. Smith sued the express COM
pany, verdict for the defendant was
ordered, and the case appealed to the
Supreme Court. The court holds that the
contract on the back of the express com
pany's receipt limits the liability of the
company to its own line, and that Mr..
Smith cannot recover against the Ameri-
can Express Company for the destruction
of the goods by the Adams Express Com
plny.

| they were part of herself and had not
been merely put on. She does not care
much, either about their being in the
height of fashion, as long as they are be-
| coming.
All, or at least most, of her tastes and
accomplishments are feminine. She is
passionately fond of music, embroiders
beautifully and is an excellent nurse.
During the season she goes constantly to
the opera. She knows.every one of Wag-
ner's operas, from beginning to end and
can tell the instant she hears a musical
selection just what it is and who wrote it.
Embroidery seems to rank next to music
in her favor and many of her friends pos
sess elegant specimens of her work. Mrs.
Dimmick has not the smallest interest in
athletics of any kind. She was never on
a bicycle, and does not approve of the
machine, and she does not ride, drive or
skate. Her time is pretty evenly divided
between books and embroidery and the
opera. She is a great reader, and keeps
up with all the current literature, though
she cares little for anything classical. She
has fad for collecting autographs, and
possesses the signatures of many we'll
known people, among them being those

is his devoted admirer. He is her favor
lite actor, and she considers him one of
the greatest lights of the modern stage.
Allison, by the way, has the honor of be-
ing approved by her as a candidate for the
presidency.
In appearance Mrs. Dimmick is not ex-
actly beautiful, but she is so bright and
vivacious, and so aristocratic in her bear
ing, that she gives one the impression of
being so. As young girl, she was noted
for her personal charms, aud in Prince
ton, the home of her childhood, they still
talk of her beauty.
The wedding is TO take place at noon on
April g, in st. Thomas Church, New
York, and will be extremely quiet. 1t is
understood that there will be only twelve
guests, relatives, and some intimate
friends of the ex-President, and that there
will be no wedding breakfast Lieut..
Parker will give the bride away. After
the ceremony the newly welded pair will
go to the generals home in Indianapolis
where public reception will be given in
their honor. A boudoir for the bride has
been planned by herself, and she has per-
sonally selected the hangings and other
furnishings for it. In August they will
go to the Adrondacks, where simple
little cottage is now being built for them.

he was the possessor of evangelistic tai
ents, and he accordingly began the life
of revivalist. A fitting tribute to his
memory, and a presumption of future re-
ward, is the fact that under his direction
the membership of his second charge, To-

TO AWAIT CHRIST'S COMING.

A Party of American Re1igionists Set
Ont for the Holy Land.
There left the shores of this country q
few days ago seventy-two' pilgrims, who
| will spend the remainder of their days in
the Holy Land. The party after reaching
| Liverpool will journey by water to Joppa
and thence to Jerusalem by rail, which
| place they expect to reach about the mid
die of April The colony is composed
largely of Chicago people, but there are
some among them from various other
places. Moved by sense of duty to sac
rifice their property, their farms and their
business, they will live the remainder of
their days surrounded by the scenery that
greeted the eyes Of the earliest Christians.
These people have no creed but the Bible,
and interpret that according to their un-
derstanding.
They have no occupations in that coun-
try, but trust that the Lord somehow will
provide for them. They expect to teach
the spirit of the Bible, lend helping hand
to those who are in need, relieve the poor,
nurse the sick, and do various other
things They are imbued with the idea
that startling developments will soon oc-
cur in and about the Holy City. They
will encamp, as it were, on the walls of
Jerusalem, and wait for the Saviour and
His second coming.
The origin of the movement reaches
back more than fifteen years, when Mrs.
Anna Spafford, her husband and ten 9TH
er adults with number of children, en-
barked for Jerusalem. Mr.. Spafford died
there seven years ago from the maladies
peculiar to that region. Part of the col
ony returned to this country two years
ago, and Mrs. Spafford followed six
months later. Mrs. Spafford is the leader
of the present party.

A TWO-MiLE PETITION.

A New York paper says: The petition of
the German-American Citizens Union for
a liberal Sunday law was presented to the
Legislature on Thursday. 1t is probably
the most formidable document which has
ever been presented to that or any other
legislative body. The petition itself is
brief enough, but the signatures attached
to it give it its formidable character. Ap-
pended to it are about 2O0,0 names, and
the slips pasted together make a roll Of
about two miles-10, $50 feet-long. To
put this in shape for presentation to the
Legislature baffied the ingenuity of the
managers of the union, and outside talent

the province of circuit courts to handle
questions so grave. He intimates, how
ever, that were he to do so, he would be
of the opinion that the act was void. In
accordance with the prayer of the peti-
toner, the court orders the issuing of a

to hold the Lake Shore subject to the
general railroad law of the State. The
case will be appealed and will ultimately
find it's way to the Supreme Court of the
