TALE OF OLD RIVER TIMES.
The Sinking Of the Steamer Northern
Lights.

LiSnte.
Judge Browning, of Burlington.
who is well known here. was in a
reminiscent mood when the Hawkeve
got from him the following: Capt.
John killeen. of the steamer Quincy.
did not always walk the hurricane
deck and stand at the bow giving his
orders to the mea below. In the
early COS he and Capt. Billy Boland,
now deceased, were partners on the
lower deck of the steamer Northern
Lights, of the Northern line. One
night early in the season when the ice
was still running strong through
Crooked slough, near Lacrosse, the
Northern Lights was wrecked. Billy
Boland was asleep in his bunk, and
no one knew better than Jack Killeen
how sound sleeper he was and how
Infatuated he would become if
awakened before he had put
in his full quota of sleeping
hours. Nevertheless, it was the
duty of Jack Killeen. who was on
watch, to rouse his sleeping partner.
else the latter's drowning was mat
ter of certainty. He also knew that
his own life wa, in danger from Be-
lands attack, for the latter was
wholly irresponsible in his first mo-
ments of half-lroused sensibilities.
He took this measure accordingly,
and, protected by an upright support
ing the cabin deck. began pounding
Boland with his fist. At the first
sign of awakening Killeen began to
run forward, Boland close at his heels.
cursing and trying to assail him. As
they reached the bow deck Killeen's
cries of the boat is sinking began
to have effect, and the sight of the
rising water completed the olsen
chantment of the heavy sleeper.
Diamond j. Reynolds was a pas
senger aboard the Northern Lights on
this occasion, and he had dressed
himself in such a hurry that he left
his vest, containing his gold watch
and chain and a roll of money, hang
ing in his state room. After. the
wreck had settled on the bed of the
river. the ice began grinding and cut
ting the upper works to pieces, but
before the work of destruction had
gone far, Diamond JOS stateroom
had been located and through
a hole cut in the roof. the vest
and yaluables were fished out of the
Hood. The hull of the old Northern
Lights probably lies now where she
sank. She was one of the best boats
ever built on Or for the upper river.
and repeated efforts to duplicate her
were made. but always resulted in a
failure. Builders were familiar with
the chief points in her construction,
but they could never equal her in
lightness of draft, speed, or ease of
and economy of operation. -

Bicycle Collision Case to
Be Heard Again.
Master Responsible for Negligence
Court on Matter.

The Supreme Court yesterday re-
versed the decision OF the District
Court in the case Of Sam KaIua Us. D.
G.. Camarinos. This was an action TO
recover damages for personal injuries
received by piaintiff through the al
legged negligence of defendants SER
want, one Kando, in driving a horse
and wagon against plaintiff, who At the
time was riding a bicycle, thereby in
juring plaintiff and breaking his BIZ
cycle. The defendant in his answer al
leges that at the time the accident oc-
Cured. he was carrying on the bust
ness of The estate of Z. G.. Camarinos,
deceased. and that the said KandO was
employed by him TO drive the horse
and wagon in connection with the
business of the estate of deceased, and
that said Nando was in his employ as
administrator, and maintained that he
should not be held liable in his indi-
vidual capacity. The District Court
thought likewise and gave judgment
for defendant
The Supreme Court, in its decision,
says: 'kando was employed by the
defendant and the alleged trespass was
committed by Kando while driving the
wagon in the scope of his employment
in the fruit store business. Defendant
was his master. According TO well set
tied law not disputed by defendant, the
master is responsible to third persons
for injuries through the negligence of
his servant while acting within the
scope of his employment. This is so
because every master is bound TO en-
ploy servants that are both skillful and
careful. So far as third persons are
concerned, Kando was the servant of
defendant. Plaintiffs appeal sustained
and judgment appealed from reversed.
The case should be proceeded with
against defendant as an individual up
on its merits"
A certificate of appeal has been filed
to the decree signed by Judge Perry
October 10, wherein judgment for $1,000
was rendered in favor of Russell Cole

In the ejectment case of c. w. Booth
