Dor sounded the first greeting in a
ponderOus salute of 81 guns, the rifles
of a special squadron assembled in
his honor re-echoed the sentiment.
there were verbal greetings from the
representatives of President Roose-
Welt. the army, the navy and the city
of New York, and a great crowd lined
the way in the city to see the German
sailors and the prince of Germany.
The great storm against which the
Kronprinz Wilhelm had struggled for
days, and which had glazed the At
lantic coast in an armor of ice, had lost
its force and resigned it's way to warm
sunshine and CHEEKY blue skies, so
there were no regrets that the royal
guest was a full day late for the en-
tertainment provided for him.
Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, the
commander of the special squadron
and honorary aide to the prince and
his staff, left the flagship Illinois at
9.4O o'clock in the naval tug Nina.
They were all in full-dress uniform.
The Nina met the Kronprinz Wilhelm
ing around on the starboard side of the
liner, steamed up the bay. Prince
Henry, attired in the uniform of an
admiral of the German navy, and sur
rounded by his naval and military
staff, in brilliant uniforms, stood on
the bridge of the liner. AS the naval
tug got nearer to the side of the
steamship Prince Henry and Admiral
Evans caught sight of each other and
exchanged informal salutes.
AS the two vessels. with a fiOtilla
of tugs and official craft, moved in
past Fort Wadsworth the first of the
salutes of 21 guns was fired. AS the
first gun sounded the prince advanced
to the end Of the bridge Of the Kron-
prinz Wilhelm and stood at attention
AS he passed the big American fiag
floating over the fOrtihcations he
touched his cap in salute, and the
members of his suite did likewise. The
flag at the jackstaff of the Kronprinl
Wilhelm was dipped, and the German
naval band accompanying the prince
played "The Star Spangled Banner.
The guns of Fort Wadsworth we're no
spent before those across the Narrows
at Fort Hamilton, doomed out theil
salute. When that ceremony was owe
the Kronprinz Wilhelm was stopped
and the Nina hauled around to he
port side and Admiral Evans and hi
staff boarded her.
After a brief halt the liner move'
ahead and was soon abreast of th'
special squadron off Tompkinsvillo
The German standard was run to th
foretop of the Kronprinz Wilhelm, ant
its appearance gave signal for tn

Judge Sterling y. Torey OF the CT: c.Iit
court of Jefferson county, Ky. recently
rendered an opinion in a curious c-se.
\ man was employed last July to
sprinkle Paris green or potato vines
to kill lady bugs. and on account OF
the heat he opened his shirt. with the
result that he was poisoned By the
Paris green. He sued his employer.
who entered a demurrer TO the petition,
and the learned Judge sustained the
demurrer for the following reasons:
the plaintiff had no right. in for9 con-
scientiae or in foro cxterno. to make
an indecent exposure of his person
while engaged in killing lady bugs; the
defendant exceeded the scope of his
employment in sprir:lsling Paris green
elsewhere than on the potato vines, as
his special and exclusive agency was to
kill the lady bugs baskins in the shade
of said potato vines; th' plaintiffs act
in allowing the defendants Paris grnen
20 come in contact with his flesh. Al
stead o. with the flesh OF the lady
bugs, was unauthorized and ultra
wires; the mental and physical suffer
ing OF which the plaintiff complains
was the result of his own wrong in
mlsapplying the defendants Paris
green to purposes other than those for
which he was employed to apply it.
and. besides. in damnum absque in
juria: the PLAINTIFF. IN opening his
clothes and exposing himself to the
lady bugs and the Paris green. Was
guilty of contribUtory negligence; the
plaintiff knew. as well as the defendant
that Paris green was a poison, then his
suit should not have been brought in
his name. but by a committee appoint
ed to represent him.
