FOR THE INSURED.
Judge de RoVeD Decides That Pol
icieS Should Be Construed
in That Woy.

United State District Judge de Ha-
ven yesterday decided in favor of the
plaintiff in the case of Alexander
Woodside and Isabella Woodside, his
wife, against the Canton Insurance
Office Limited to recover $4,000, the
amount of an insurance upon the per
sonal effects Of the plaintiffs. The
clause, warranted free from all aver
age" appeared in the policy.
The defendant claimed that the pol
icy, by reason of the clause, was to be
construed as meaning the personal eft
fects collectively. In the course of
his decision the Judge said:
1T is a general rule of law that a
policy of insurance being a contract of
indemnity to the insured is to be lib
orally construed in his favor, and in
accordance with that rule IL is held
that an exception from the risks of
the policy is TO be construed strictly
against the insurer"

CHRISTMAS CHEER.
Gloddening the Hearts of tbe Un-
fortunate Of the Order of
Odd Fellows.

The Christmas cheer committee of the
Independent Order of Odd Fellows, COM
posed of representatives of nearly all the
subordinate lodges of this city and all of
the local Rebekah lodges, was hard at
work yesterday preparing packages of
provisions and sending them out to
about fifty families of members of the
order who at this glad season are not in
as good circumstances as some of their
more fortunate brethren. The baskets,
which contained nice cuts of meat and
all that is necessary to make up a good
Christmas dinner, with enough for sew
eral more, were each accompanied by a
sack of flour, half sack of potatoes and
three sacks of coal.
The subcommittee that had charge of
the fraternal work and of arranging the
baskets, with the contents that were
purchased with money donated by the
lodges, was composed of: Messrs: j; ];
T. Houghwont, and Mrs. H. H Dobbin
of Amity Lodge and Mrs. H. E. Cyrus of
I1oval Lodge. Another active worker of
the general committee was II. II. Dob
bin. In addition, the subcommittee dis
tributed warm clothing to the orphans
of odd Fellows in the local asylums.

a Finely Calculated Coup.
FavOrites Won.

The Oakland track is either the fast
est elIiptical course in the world or it is
short of being a mile. Every day ordi
nary selling platers make circuit of it
in astonishing fast time. Yesterday
Buckwa, the to choice for the mile
and a half run, made Judge Denny and

like pygmies and underwraps the en-
tire distance completed in 2:S2A, just
half a second faster than the record,

official timers were: quarter, &c; half
81; three-quarters 1:15&; mile, 1:4O12;
mile and quarter, 2:0512; mile and a
half, 2:33A.
The attendance was good and the
betting more than lively. Favorites
were very successful, capturing four OF
the six races decided.

a half furlong scramble, got flying

Near the paddock Thorpe on Devils

a squeeze, only to be downed less than
a length by Polish, a 25 to l shot, rid
den by J. Woods, which came with a
great rush. The tardy coming favor
ite, BernardillO, was a bang-up third.
SalVadO, the fast son of Salvador,
took a hack at the coast record on the
mile and furlOng run. Argentina, the
Baldwin entry, made a great showing
out in front, maintaining her lead until
within few yards of the wire, where
SalvadO overlook her.. and in a wild
drive won by half a length in 1:52$4 a
clip of quarter of a second off the
coast record. Ace, the to favorite,
never got to the front and finished in
last position.
The final seven-furlong run was only
a gallop for May w, the to 10 IA
