REASONING ON LIQUOR QUESTION

ard efforts of the editor-in-chief OF that
paper during the trial Of the prohibitory
law in Iowa to enforce the same would
make an interesting end instructive
story for the public to read. The Mes
senger goes on to say:

was the disgrace In Iowa of an unen-

so and the community that can not can

effort because America won this cup in
1861 and has since held II. as an iiterna-

the cup been raced for by fleets and
yachts of foreign countries, and once b.
Canadians. In the early races, and when
America won the cup, she sailed against

Observation-Disclosures
CRIME BY WIFE.

l..
The old rule as to the presumption
that a wife committing a crime in the
presence of her husband is presumed to
act under his compulsion, in the absence
OF evidence to the contrary. Is applied to
a somewhat singular case lately decided
by the supreme court of Missouri. Ihere
a wife, whose husband was imprisoned
after conviction of murder, at his insti-
cation procured revolver which sha
carried and delivered to him at the jail.
The court held that such crime was
committed in the husbands presence,
tho he was not present when she pro-
cured and conveyed the revolver to the
iail, and she was. therefore. relieved
from ltability.-40 American Law Regis
ter, 476.
NEGLIGENCE-EX
Where plaintiff purchased siphon of
seltzer water, manufactured by third
party, and filed in the usual manner,
he can not recover of the vender for in
luries received from an explosion OF
such siphon, where there is no other evil
dence of negligence on the part of the
yender than the explosion itself. ST.
,Jhons OF settler water, like the one that
exploded. are in common use and have
been manufactured and sold for many
years, and 1t is common knowledge that
they will sometimes explode. The case
is different where articles have been
sold as apparently harmless and have
turned out to be dangerous and intlict
damage, and the vender has in conse-
quence been held liable.-n N. Y. Sup
plement Judge McAdam). 942.
TELEGRAPH COMPANIES.
Where one delivers for transmission
to telegraph company message writ
ten on the blank of another company,
the blank containing printed instruc-
tions that the message shall be sent
subject to the terms and conditions
therein set out. are binding, notwith-
standing they are in the form of a con-
tract with a company other than the
one to which the message is delivered.
The delivery and acceptance OF such a
message is, in effect. an adoption by the
parties of the blank contract made in
the name Of the other company.-3s
Southeastern Rep. Georgia, Judge Lew
is), 443.
MUTUAL INSURANCE = MEMBER
SHIP.
A section Of the bylaws of the
knights of the Maccabees provides that
no person shall be eligible to member
ship in the order who is engaged either
as principal, agent or servant in the
manufacture or sale Of spirituous, malt
or vinous liquors as beverage. The
supreme court of New York has con-
strued this section not to exclude from
membership director of corporation
engaged in manufacturing and selling
malt liquors, as director is in no sense
such principal, agent or servant in the
| transaction of the business of his cor
poration.-105 N. Y. State Rep. (Judge
Nash), $50.
PRESUMPTION OF DEATH.
| A husband left his family in 1873. to
better his condition. He wrote fire.
quently to his wife until 1876. when he
stated that he was in a hospital, very ILL
and did not expect to recover. He was

Good over All.

On the river Of life as toat along
see with the spirits sight
That many nauseous weed OF wrong
Has root in seed of right
For evil is good that has gone astray,
And sorrow is only blindness.
And tho world Is always under the sway
OF the chnngeless law OF kindness.
The commonest error that truth can mike
Is shouting its sweet voice hoarse,
And sin ia only the souls mistake
In misdircctinG its force,
And love, the fairc.t OF all fair things
That ever to man descended.
Grows rank with nettles and pois'nous stings
Unless it is watched and tended.
There could not be anything better than this
Old world in the way 1t began.
And, though some matters have gone amiss
From the great original plan,
And however dark the skies may appear,
And however souls may blunder.
tell you 1t all will work out clear.
For good lies over and under.
