Supreme Court Rules on a Fine
Point in a Marshall
County Case.
Railways Not Compelled to Fence
Entire Right Of Way to Es.
cape Liability.
Suit One in Which Company Was
Sued for Damages for
Cattle Killed.

The supreme court today, among oth-
er decisions. rendered an opinion in q
case from Marshall county in which a
new point had been raised. The suit was
entitled I. L. Cagwin VS.. the G. & N. w.
Railway Company, and the point IN
volved was whether or not the company
must fence its right-of-way or the
tracks only.
Mr.. Cagwin, who resides just east of
Quarry on the line of the Northwestern,
owned several head of cattle that We're
killed by a passenger train of the de-
PENDANT company. He brought suit i'll
the district court and the company adj
,nitted the fact that the Stock was Killed
and the value of the same. but set up the
claim that it was not liable for damages
because its tracks We're properly fenced.
The cattle had gone from Gagwin's land
under a creek bridge and to another
mans lard. and from there into public
highway. They were on the highway
crossing when Killed. The company had
built fences along It's right of way on
each side of the bridge, but maintained
that 1t was not supposed to fence creeks
and rivers and that the bridge was all
the fence it should provide
In this district court Judge Casweil
ruled on this point in favor of the
Northwestern. MIR. Cagwin appealed to
the supreme court and that body now
'aitirms the decision of Judge Caswell.

A SYMPATHETIC CROWD.

A Soldiers' Home Funeral Causes
Visitors to Draw Unjust Conclu.
sions.
The Cedar Rapids Gazette of Satur-
day evening publishes story that re-
yeals either wilful attempt on its part
to infer that the Soldiers Home man
agement is heartless or that the wit
nesses to the incident were not con-
yersant with the circumstances. The
Gazette says:
"a number of the Cedar Rapids
delegates to the ID. of Fl. grand
lodge at Marshalltown this week were
witnesses to a pathetic incident. one
feature of which will cause the people
of Iowa to wonder what methods are
employed at the Soldiers Home, an in
stitution in which probably every county
in the state Is represented. The only
son of an aged veteran arrived at the
Home on Wednesday morning to pay
his annual visit to his parent. The Wis
itor, whose dress and appearance indi-
Gated him to be man whose circum-
stances alone had prevented him from
giving q shelter and home to his father
went at once to the Home, and going to
The part of the institution where he US
TALLY found the veteran. and not seeing
him. he inquired of an employee where
the father could be found. He's down
stairs" was the gruff answer of the in
dividual whose salary is paid by the
state, and down to an Indicated room
the big, strong man went, expecting a
Joyous reception. Imagine his grief
when he walked into the room and saw,
rot the happy. affectionate father whom
he had left in the Home twelve months
before, but a cold. lfeless body Some
hours later the arrangements for the
customary funeral of an inmate at the
institution were carried out. a little
squad of veterans escorted the remains
,c their last resting place, but the Only
mourner was the son. whose attendance
was only the merest accident, no notice
OF his fathers death having been sent
him. The ritualistic services said, the
earth was replaced in the grave and a
little mound constructed, while the big.
brawny son stood by alone and deserted
by all save the begrimed man with the
shovel His frame shook with sobs and
tears coursed down his Sustained
checks. 1t is difficult, indeed, for any
one who has not suffered a like bereave-
sment to measure the depth of his grief.
The party of d. of n. delegates who
Lad come to visit the home and who had
learned the mans story watched the
strange proceedings from distance,
and when they saw him standing by the
newly-made mound after the others had
left him SO abruptly Cedar Rapids
lady said: I'm going over and shake his
hand The solitary mourner could not
speak, but responded to the friendly
pressure of his hand iii way that indi-
Gated his appreciation. Every person in
the large party of visitors followed the
lead of the Cedar Rapids lady, and altho
the mourner wore no lodge emblem he

sympathy was genuine"
The Gazette must not think that Cedar
Rapids contains the only people with
sympathetic hearts, and it should at
least have inquired into the circum-
stances before casting reflections upon
one of the best managed of the many
Iowa institutions. Deaths and funerals
are of almost daily occurrence at the
Soldiers Home. In each and every case
a record of the near relatives of every
inmate is kept and in case of death
.nese are notified. An effort was made
to reach the two sons of the veteran re-
ferred to by the Gazette, but only one
was found, and he resides in Minnesota.
The other son happened to reach the city
after his fathers death and therefore
had not received the word sent to him.

BLOOD

We live by our blood, and
on it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re-
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with CON
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved; our blood
lis poor; there is little nutri-
nent in it.
Back of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take SCOTS emulsion
