UehluS has always been associated
WIN care.esSness in dress and very fire.
quently ludicrous mistakes happen.
Lord Rosse, who built the famous tele-
scope that bears his name, was an eX-
pert mechanic and was also somewhat
careless about his dress.
oh one occasion the earl was looking
through the engine room of a large
nahulactory. He suddenly became in
,erested in something he saw and, TAX
,ng out his watch, stood looking from
1t TO the machine with a peculiar smile
on his face.
Inc engineer came along. "Well,
WHAT'S upT he growled. what are
you grinning at? What have you to
uhd fault withY
oh'' answered Lord Rosse, 81 am
lot hnding fault. / am calculating
uow long before the boiler explodes."
Boiler exp.odes? Why, you're era
w. man! You get out of this"
WELL" said the earl, "if you work
ven minutes longer with that screw
%ose the boiler will certainly ex-
plode."
Inc engineer looked at the screw in
ulcated, jumped at it and fastened 1t
as soon as he could.
why didn't you say that soonerT
he demanded.
- Nhy should IT' answered Lord

LAW AS INTERPRETED.

In determining whether or not a per
son is a habitual criminal under a
statute making him such after two
former imprisonments for felony it is
held, in State VS.. Martin (Ohio), 43
L. Il. A. 94, that Imprisonment termin-
ated by unconditional pardon cannot
be counted.
The serious conflict of authority on
the duty Of landowners to keep prem
ises safe is considered in Ritz VS..
Wheeling CIV. Na.), 43 L. Il. A. 14S, in
which 1t is held that there is no such
duty toward trespassers even if they
are children, and that negligence to
create a right of action in their favor
must be so gross as to amount to
wanton injury.
But the limitation of a general ticket
for passage on a railroad to the day on
which 1t is sold is held, in Louisville
and Nashville Railway Company VS..
turner (Tenn.), 43 L. r. A. 40, to be
invalid, unless there is an express con-
tract to that effect, based upon a con-
slderation, or an alternative given to
the purchaser to have a full and unlim-
tied ticket.
One who gets upon a train with
ucKet which he knows does not, upon
us iace, entile him to passage, because
the time for which it purports to be
valid has expired, is held, in Trezona
vs. Chicago Great Western Railway
company QOwa), 43 L. Il. A. 1876, to
nave no right to recover damages for
Delhg elected, if he refuses to pay fare,
although he thinks the time limitation
Is unreasonable.
The first attempt to subject life-in-
surance policies to taxation was defeat
ed in State Board of Tax Commission
ers vs. Holiday Qnd), 40 l.. r. A. S26,
Where paid-up or non-forfeitable and
partly paid-up life-insurance policies
were assessed, but the Court held that
tne existing statutes, though. providing
LOT the taxation of all property not
expressly exempted, did not provide
any special regulations for the valua-
uon OF this peculiar kind of property.

uAxEs MAN AND BEAST MAD,
photographer Says Red Excites HUI
man Beings as Well as Animals,


Uhv does the bull so strongly object
n q red rag? While the professional
nhyslologists do not, as yet, appear to
have found any satisfactory eXplana-
ton of the fact, French manufacturer
of Photographic materials processes to
have discovered that bulls are by no
means the only members of the animal
kingdom who are excited by anything
red, A large number of hands are en-
ployed in the manufactory, both male
and female, and most of the work has
hitherto been performed in rooms to
which all the light that was admitted
came through paneS of red glass.
Hardly day passed without some ter
rife disturbance taking place among
the work people. Now 1t was a duel
almost to the death between two of the
men, now between two of the women:
sometimes the melee was general.
"WOrkshop regulations were absolute
" ignored and no amount of fines or
other punishments seemed to have anv
permanent or deterrent effect. This
state Of affairs was assumed, until re-
Gently, to be ins2parable from work
carried on in uncomfortable conditions.
At length it occurred to some bright
spirit that the red panes of glass might
be at fault, and it was decided to trv
what the effect Of green panes would
be- The effect was instantaneous.
From that day sudden peace fell
upon the whole workshop that had new
er been known before. Bckering and
fighting ended as if by enchantment,
and voice of man or woman was never
heard raised above a whisper.-New
