High Court Decisions.

The Appellate Court handed down a de-
cision yesterday in the appeal of the Lake
Erie s. Western Railroad Company against
William Arnold, reversing the case and
thereby setting at naught judgment for
81, 500 recovered by Arnold against the COM
pang in the Circuit Court of Delaware
county. Arnold bought ticket in 1898 for
a special train running from Muncie to
Decatur, where the congressional conven-
ton was held. He desired to work against
the nomination of George w. Cromer. n
crowd Of Cromer men put him off the
train near Muncie and kept him off. Arnold
claimed negligence on the part of the con-
ductor and brakeman because they did not
help him In his efforts to remain on the
train. The Appellate Court held that his
complaint should have avered that the
trainmen were close enough to have rend-
cred assistance to the plaintiff. The higher
court also said Arnold should have made
q showing in his complaint that he him.

justify the passengers in ejecting him.
The same court affirmed a judgment

of Logansport by the Cass Circuit Court
on account of injuries sustained by Knouff
in falling from an abutment of Eel river
bridge. The plaintiff in order to get out

Within the last few days the Lake Shore
Railroad Company. controlling the Lake
Erie Western, has expended $4,000 in
purchasing land near the city limits north,
where an extensive yard will be con-
structed. There are forty-three acres in
the grounds purchased adjoining the tracks
Of the Lake Erie e. Western, and other
land In that immediate vicinity is owned
by the L. E. & W. The company will at
once lay between seven and eight miles
of sfdetracks. As nov arranged the track
room of the Lake Erie & Western extends
from Massachusetts, avenue to Thirty-sec-
ond street, crossing a large number of
streets, and these tracks are so arranged
as to be inconvenient for switching al
lowing cars to stand. In the new yard
these annoyances will be practically done
away with, the new yard will be located
on ground not crossed by any streets for
considerable distance, which will enable
the trainmen to handle the business, which
Is rapidly increasing, more expeditiously.
Other Improvements in this city are con-
templated, and. as an official of the road

Judge McMaster. of the Superior Court.
yesterday gave his accession in the injunc-
ton suit of Amos Heltzel against the city
of Indianapolis to prevent the Improvement
of Highland place and the collection of as
sessments levied against his property. The

of W orks ordered the Improvement to pro-
coed. although an injunction suit then
pending. The higher court decision was in

Improvements have already been made, he
said they could not now be prevented and
that the only recourse the plaintiff may
have is in a suit against the city for dam
ages or TO prevent the collection of assess

ROSTERS UNDER BAN.
All Farmer Wyant's Barnynrd Fowls
Were Old Maids.

TOLEDO. o.. Jan. 30.-The rooster was
for many years under ban on the farm of
David Wyant the eccentric character who
was buried at Five Points, a few miles
south of Clyde. For years the hens which
scratched about the barnyard on the Wyant
farm were either widows or old maids 1t
was one of the religious tenents of this pc
culiarly religious old gentleman that no
rooster should be allowed on the place. Mr..
Wyant decided his farm 20 the Lord a few
years ago. The business men of Clyde say
he was an excellent man with whom to
do business, thoroughly reliable and honor
abe He allowed his hair tc grow for
thirty-five years without being cut and one
of his religious tenets was that he would
never die, but go up to heaven like Elijah.
Mr. Wyants divorced wife, who is spoken
of as a very estimable woman, but who
found ii necessary to separate from her
husband on account of his queer ideas, did
not attend the funeral. although she lives
at Lodi few miles distant.
