Subscribers Who Failed to Notify the
Publishers to Stop His Paper

Publisher; to Stop His Paper. N rs
Justice Johnson, of st. Paul, has de-
cided in the case Of the Odd Fellows Re-
view against John Gaffey, that If a sub
scriber desires to have a paper discon-
tinued to his address, he must firset pay
the publisher the amount he owes for
subscription, and make request, that
the paper be discontinued to his address.
The evidence in the case brought forth
the facts that Gaffey subscribed and paid
for the Review for one year, and that
he continued to accept it after his SUBJ
scrfption had expired. Later he changed
his address without notifying the pub
Usher, and claimed not to have received
the paper This, the court held, was
through no fault Of the publishers, who
received Judgment for the amount due
and costs. 5.Ee s.sl5Fs4
