HE liability of a telegraph COM
pany for errors in transmission
has been n fruitful source of
litigation. While the companies seek to
protect themselves by printing the most
binding of contracts at the top of their
message blanks, distinctly exempting
themselves from damages unless the
messages is a repeated" one, they are
sometimes made TO suffer. The West
ern Union with its thousands of offices
is one of the best managed institutions
in the country. it's ordinary precautions
against errors are perhaps all that
could reasonably be expected. and its
right to demand additional compensa-
ton for taking extraordinary precau-
tions by repeating the message back TO
the sending point seems fair. But IL is
doubtful if legal ingenuity can devise a
way to protect the company absolutely,
particularly when the error in transmits
sion damages the receiver rather than
the sender.
The supreme court Of Illinois has just
decided a case in point, which is of
interest 10 the general public. The
plaintiff is a Chicago commission mer-
chant who received over the Western
Union line from the sender in Mont

Writ on ruined palace in Kashmir
1.-The end is nothing and the end it near"
Where are the voices kings were glad to
hear?
Where now the feast the song, the baya-
dere?
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
And yonder lovely rose; alas! my dear!
See the November garden, rank and
drear;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
See. how the rain drop mingles with the
mere.
Mark how the age devours each passing
year;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
Forms rise and grow and wane and dis
appear.
The life allotted these is now and here;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
The death shroud waits thee, and the
dark palled bier.
Alasi sweet eyes and bosom tender, dear;
The tolling bell the dropping ear hear;
The end is nothing, and the end is near.
austere;
Take what thou cans't while thou abidest
here,
Seek finer pleasures each returning year;
The end is nothing, and the END is near.
Bind not thyself too much to earthly
gear,
But eat the bread of life and take good
cheer,
And drink the wine of life and have no
fear;
The end is vision, and the end is near
JOY is the Lord, and Love His charioteer;
Be tranquil and rejoicing; oh. my dear!
Shun the wild seas, far from the break
ers steer;
The end is vision, and the end is near
All, Danish hope and doubt. regret and
fear.
Check the gay laugh, but dry the idle
tear.
Search. is the light within thee burn
ing clear?
The end is vision, and the end is near
List to the wisdom learned of saint and
seer!
The living Lord is joy. and peace His
sphere;
Rebel no more, throw down thy shield
and spear,
Surrender all myself: true life is here;
The end is vision, and the end is near.
Forget not this. forget not that, my
dear!
IT'S all and nothing. and the end is near.

The Scene to Have Daily Rehearsal in
the Near Future.
From the Utica Globe.
AT the present pace of journalism we
may soon expect to have the following
scene enacted every day in the boudoir
of the managing editor:
Managing Editor-Is that fair muir
deress once more free?
Prison Reporter-Yep; got her out
with a jimmy. Good story, two col
umns long and scoop.
Managing Editor-Are arrangements
made to mob the brute who assaulted
that little girl?
Mob Reporter-Yep; got 200 men en-
gagged. Well get the fellow at 1880
o'clock tonight. The sheriff will make
a false resistance, but the man comes
out.
Managing Editor-Thats good stuff.

at work Who's got the assignment of
getting expressions of opinion from
governors on the tarring and feather
ing of the Spanish minister?
Space Writer-Tll have that as soon
as the Spanish minister is tarred and
feathered.
Managing Editor-Great, Scott! amt
that fellow been tarred and feathered
yet? That was on the assignment book
for the first thing this morning.
Tar Reporter-Yes. but the Spanish
minister raised his price and wouldn't
let us put on the tar until we paid 1t.
I could see his raise.
Managing Editor-Well. pay his price
and dope him extra for his meanness.
That must be done so the governors
can be interviewed for day after to-
morrow. Hows the report of the cabl
net meeting coming on?
Cabinet Reporter-Couldn't get a
word from any of the cabinet officers.
Managing. Editor (scornfully)-Say,
you're a new man, amt you?
Cabinet Reporter-Yes, sir
Managing Editor thought so.
What's seeing the cabinet officers got
to do with it? Give US a column on
what they ought to say. Now. you fell

news to a fine point, and remember, no
local stories over three inches long go,
unless it's a murder that we ferret out.

must be filed. Git.

BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Serofula Sores.
cat the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plieations that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted a physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarssparilla. also took Hooo's
Ssrsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med

~NhE irish Immigrant society states
that of the arrivals in New York
from Ireland during 1897 more
than ninety-five per cent. could read
and write. II is evident from this fact
that. If the Lodge bin should become a
law, it would not affect Irish immigra-
ton to any considerable degree. The
total of Irish immigrants last year was
lS.41T. the greater number of whom
were females, Ireland being one Of the
few countries that does not send a
larger proportion of males than females.

were between Is and 40 years old. \

The laws of Austro- Hungary are
published in eight different languages.

east Germany.
Married women may smoke in Vien-
ma without being considered "euan-
cipated," but unmarried women who
indulge in tobacco are looked at
askance.
Good society in Vienna consists OF
one emperor, one empress. eighteen
archdUkes the foreign diplomatic body
and those members of the aristocracy
whose blood was blue enough.
In Vienna a man is often admitted
to court socially because of his official
position whose wife is never received
No matter how high he rises and how
powerful he becomes, his wife is
barred. Even the late empress was
snubbed because she was only the
daughter OF a duke.
The imperial family OF Austria is de-
scended from Rudolph Won Hapsburg,
a German count, born in 1918, who was
elected king of Germany in 1878. The
male line died out in 1910 with En-
rerOr Karl VI, whose only daughter,
Maria Theresa, gave her hand to Duke
Franz of Lorraine and Tuscany, after
ward Kaiser Franz I. of Germany. He
thereby became the founder OF the new
house of apsburg-Lorraine.
