She had been living as n tenant in the
same premises for seven years under d
parole lease. Lawyer c. s. Hamilton
made a request of the court Judge Ell
mer TO charge the jury. The court eX-
patiated upon the request to charge.
The supreme court says: 1.-THE court
should have charged, substantially, as
requested, and the rule as laid down in
the charge Is incorrect"
The general rule is that under q pa
role lease. The lessee takes the risk as
to the condition of the premises and
that the landlord Is not liable. The
rule of "Corrat emplor' applies. The
court qualified the language above by
saying that the law does not relieve
the landlord from liability in an action
for negligence In concealng from the
tenant secret defect In the premises
which renders them dangerous for oc-
cupancy, and which knowledge of the
existence and the character of which
he is chargeable, and which the tenant
could not discover by reasonable vigi-
lance.
1.-THE court used the significant lam
suage: Whether a landlord would be
relieved from liability for an injury sus-
tanned by d tenant from the absence of
fire escape upon the building when
required by statute, or for an injury
sustained by q tenant while properly
using defective fire escape. when the
absence or defective character of the fire
escape could be by reasonable vigilance
have been discovered by the tenant at
the time the premises We're leased, we
do not decide"

YESTERDAYS BALL GAMES


Score Was7 TO a-Horan, "a New Haven
Boy, Pitched for the Visitors Norwich
Games.
New Haven won from Waterbury in
a slow game at Savin Rock yesterday
afternoon by the score of 7 to 2 The
game was devoid of any special feat
ures, though an occasional snappy play
/ livened up things to some extent. Ho-
ran, a New Haven man, was tried in
the box by Roger Conner. He pitched
a fairly good game and 1ielded his posi-
ton well. Eight hits We're made off
him, one less than made off Ashe. He
was tritie wild at times, but this was
due probably to nervousness. His sup
port was not Of the best, and but for
this the score would have been close.
Ashe pitched for New Haven and had
considerable luck. Nine good hits We're
made off his delivery, but the Connor-
ties were ablev to score only two runs.
He used slow ball and when he wasn't
putting them around the batters' necks
the visitors generally knocked flies in
the felders' hands when they needed
hits. Then, again, every one of Water
bury's errors was costly, While those
made by Friel and Fitzmaurice were
absolutely harmless.
In the eighth inning the visitors We're
retired on three pitched balls. Weis-
becker Went out, Cuslck to Caravan;
Conner flew out to Duff and Drew died
on an another assist by Cusick.
In the second inning Waterbury
landed on Ashe poking out three sin
giles and two-bagger Two runs
crossed the plate and three men were
on bases with only one out. Fitzpat-
rick then Went out on fly to Battam
and Weisbecker died, Friel to Cana
van. After this inning Waterbury fail |
ed to score, while New Haven had no |
trouble in piling up seven runs
Larry Battam was at short stop for |
the locals and helded his position In |
good style, though he was weak at the I

HARD WORK GETTING MARRIED.
A Lieutenant's Puzzling Time Getting
the Necessary Permission.

| A Lieutenant's Puzzling Time Getting
the Necessary Permission.
| In the case of Lieutenant Henry c..
| Smither and Helen Stahl Lytle, Cupid
had a new task. 1t was a good thick
| knot of red tape, army red tape of the
most aggravating description, that he
had to unite But he accomplished his
task and now the young couple will be
married in Tacoma Wash. July 2S.
Henry c. Smither is a Denver boy,
the son of Captain r.. G, Smither re-
tired, formerly Of the Tenth cavalry.
Miss Lytle is the daughter of an OIL
cial of the Oregon Short Line.
Lieutenant Smither was sent into the
Wardner district with the first troops
under General Merriam which We're en-
ployed to quell the riotous miners.
Right into the thick of 1t he went, and
served so bravely that he was twice
recommended by General Merriam for
special mention After the excitement
of the disturbance was over Troop l. of
the First cavalry, with which Lieuten-
ant Smither was connected, was sent to
Camp Osborne, a little village on the
railroad up the hills and away from the
smoke Of Wardner In Camp Osborne
lived Mr.. Lytle, representing the Ore
gon Short Line, and with him his
daughter, blonde pretty and gracious.
Presently her engagement to the young
lieutenant, who Is now tWenty-seVen
years of age and but three years out of
West Point Academy, was announced.
Two months ago rumors said that the
troop was to be removed to another sta
ton and it seemed necessary to fix a
date for the wedding. In army circles
marriage means, necessarily, leave of
absence, and having fixed upon July as
the happy month, Lieutenant Smither
sent General Merriam request for
leave of absence during chat month.
Camp Osborne Is in little triangle of
Idaho which lies on the east side of the
range. 1t is really in the Department
of Columbia, but during the Wardner
troubles General Merriam was given
supervision over it, putting 1t in the
Department of the Colorado.
After week or SO of anxious waiting
the expectant lovers received an an
sWer from General Merriam
Camp Osborne is no longer in my de-
partment," 1t read '.You must apply
to General Shafter, in command of the
Department of the Columbia
An application was speedily made to
General Shafter, who replied briefly:
Apply to General Merriam of the
Department Of the Colorado
Lieutenant Smlther seemed to be a
soldier without department. Captain
Smither in Denver was appealed to and
made application to both General Me1-
riam and General Shafter, with the
same success as his son.

CHINA WAR NEWS.

1t is now dawning upon the German
press and public that Mr.. Hay, the
American secretary of state, has Sc
cured an out and out diplomatic vic
tory in obliging the powers, Germany
included, to yield to his arguments in
favor of more moderate terms in the
preliminary joint note to the Chinese
peace plenipotentiaries This clearly
defined defeat is especially bitter at
Berlin, because Emperor William had
set his heart on imposing the most
humiliating conditions upon upon the
Chinese and thus emphasizing Ger
many's pwer in their eyes.
Definite instructions supplementing
a communication from London on the
18th, have been received by Sir Ernest
Mason Satow, the British minister,
and he now demands modification of
point in the joint note which the
foreign ENJOYS generally regard as inn
portant. This means further delay, as
all the ministers must communicate
anew with their respective govern
ments. just what is the nature of the
objection raised by Great Britain the
ministers decline to say, but they adj
NIT that the new demand will involve
good deal more diplomatic procedure,
The negotiations of the powers in
regard to the joint China note were
concluded satisfactorily on the 18th,
all agreeing to to the conditions iden.
tically as outlined by Count Won Bue-
low, the imperial chancellor of Ger
many, Nov 10, with the exception of
the Introductory clause saying the de-
mands are irrevocable, which is elm
mated.
The empress of China has finally
agreed to accept the terms of peace,
and will pay the $500, 600, 600 indemnity
asked, but hopes to evade it through
the quarrel between the powers which
is almost certain to follow.
