Indecent Exposure
Barred Recovery.
(Kansas Oity Journal.) }

Judge Sterling b. Toney of the
circuit court of Jefferson county, Ky.
recently rendered an opinion in 9
queer case. A man uas employed
last July to sprinkle Paris green on
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 tho demurrer
for the following reasons:
The plaintiff had no right, in foro
conscientiae or in foro externo, to
make an indecent exposure of his
person while engaged in killing lady
bugs the defendant exceeded the
scope Of his employment in sprink
ling Paris green elsewhere than on
the potato vines, as his special and
exclusive agency was to kill lady
bugs basking in the shade OF sal
potato vines: the plaintiffs act in
allowing the defendants Paris groen
to come in contact with his flesh, in
stead of with the flesh of the lady
bugs, was unauthorized and ultra yires;
the mental and physical suffering OF
which the plaintiff complains was
the result OF his own wrong in mis-
applying the defe ndaDts Paris green
to purposes other than those for
which he was employed to apply it.
and, besides, Ia 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 de-
fendant that Paris green was poison
Gus, and If he did not know that
Paris green was a poison, then his
suit should not have been brought in
his name, but by committee ap-
pointed to represent him.

Prof. Pearson To Be
Ousted For Heresy

Ch!csgo, Feb. Professor Chas.
w. Pearson will be asked to resign
from the faculty Of Northwestern Uni
versity if the report of the commit
tee appointed to investigate his case
be accepted by the executive CON-
mittee of the board OF trustees next
week
The decision was reached after q
Two hours session behind closed
doors last night, at which the COM
munication written by tho professor
on Tuesday was read and the case
reviewed. The members of the ex-
amining committee are Daniel
Bonbrlght, acting president of the
university; DIR. Robert B. Sheppard
business agent, and N. II. Wilson, q
trustee.
The report In substance, it is said,
will declare that Prof. Pearson trans
gressed the rules of propriety in op-
enly declaring tho fallibility OF the
Bible while occupying chair in an
institution supported mainly by con-
tributions from members OF the Meth
odist church, and that he should seek
a chair IN some liberal institution,
where he would be at liberty to
preach any doctrine he might desire.
For these reasons the conclusion is
drawn that the university trustees
should ask Professor Pearson to re
sign.-Denver Post.-rJust as we ex-
pected. No man who thinks as his
reason dictates, II that thinking is
contrary to the es tablishcd doctrines
