alleged beer was requisite. The law
of Iowa at one time declared that wine
was not an Intoxicating drink if made
from fruits grown in the state.
Some legal decisions illustrate the
fact that common sense plays very
important part in the ruling of the
judges. Here is case in point. The
relatives of man who had been killed
by train while he was walking along
the track, brought an action for ten
thousand dollars as compensation for
the loss which they sustained. The
judge gave judgment in favor of the
defendant-the railroad-upon the
ground that the deceased had no right
to trespass upon other peoples
property, and that the train was in it's
proper place when upon the track.
In other words, railroad track is
private property and if people trespass
they do so at their own risk.
A subscriber to the telephone in
Cincinnati was deprived of the privi-
lege for which he had paid for year
in advance, because he frequently made
use of the word "damn." He sued
to be reinstated. But the majority of
the court took the view that the word
was coarse, unbecoming and profane,
or, if not profane, improper. The rule
prohibiting the use of improper Ian
guage was reasonable one. The tele-
phone reached all classes of society,
and it was quite possible for COM
munication intended for one individu-
al to reach another. Moreover, the
operators, often ladies, were entitled
to be protected from insult and the
inventors were justified in their de-
sire to have the instrument placed in
respectable light before the public,
otherwise it might cease to be used
For all these reasons the plaintiff was
non n-suited, one judge dissenting. This
learned gentleman held that the often
sive word was not profane according
to the decalogue, the dictionary, the
common law, or the statutes.
The following point concerning tele.
graph companies and their methods
may be of interest. Most-if not all
telegraph companies print upon
their forms notice disclaiming re-
sponsibility for errors, unless a mess
age is repeated-At some cost to the
sender-of course. In an action in
volving this point the court held that
any regulation which sought to relieve
a company from performing it's duties
with integrity, skill and diligence
was contrary to public policy, and if
it was necessary to repeat message
in order to secure it's correctness, the
company must do so at it's own ex-
pense.
How "vacant' house differs from

the vicinity. The house was insured
under two policies, the provisions of
which were as follows: Policy num-
Der one undertook to make good what
ever part Of the house might be
burned "unless it should become
vacant or unoccupied. Policy
number two relieved the company of
the liability if the house became
"vacant and unoccupied. The house
was burned, and when called upon to
pay, the insurance company repudi-
ated all liability. An action being
brought, the court decided that no
claim could arise on the first policy,
since, to be occupied, a house must
have persons living in it, and using it
as their usual residence. Under the
second policy the court held that the
company was liable, as the house was
not vacant so long as it contained
furniture and cooking apparatus.
A few English decisions may be
worthy of attention. They are GER
tainly curious and, i'll some respects,
instructive.
What is "a date?" Certain persons
who wished to vote in the part of
London called Marylebone, sent in
their claims to the proper official,
duly signed, but dated August,
1885. The law required that the
claim should be made between the 1st
and 25th days of August. The Revis-
ing Barrister. who attends to the re-
vision Of the lists Of voters for men,
bers of parliament, decided that, as
the papers were in the hands of the
overseers, (the legally authorized
oficials) prior to the 25th day of the
month, the omission of the exact date
from the papers by the claimants was
immaterial.
An English Accident Insurance Com
pany, evidently anxious to escape pay
ing Thousand pounds to the repre-
sentative of policy holder who was
drowned near birmingham, raised a
novel question. The policy provided
that no claim should arise except
"for an injury from an accident. -
The company contended that the de-
ceased fell into shallow stream, and
died from suffocation as result of his
inability to raise his head above the
water, from exhaustion, caused by
fit, and that the company was not Ii
able for any injury due to natural
disease. The court determined that
the man died from drowning in
brook while in all epileptic fit, and
drowning having been decided to be
an accident from outward and visible
means, there must be Judgment for the
plaintiff.

exactly what he may do unto others,
and what other persons may do to
him. In practice, however, nobody
can be said to know. the law, because
nobody is capable Of remembering the
law upon every subject But lawyers
are required to know where to find it,
and, in cases where doubt exists. they
are able to determine it, with the
assistance of the courts-at the ex-
pense of their clients.
Among the numerous instances of
apparently simple cases, which were
disputed for something like a century,
may be mentioned the controversy con-
cerning the phrases from the date"
and Sin and from the date The
English courts eventually decided that
the phrases were synonymous. Equal
ly important is the decision that the
words "value' and "annual value"
refer to net, not to gross value.
About dozen years ago the Cana
dian Court of Queens Bench was re-
quired to decide whether" Old Toms
gin came within the definition Of
"spirits. A number of experts were
Of the opinion that it did not, since
it was composition of spirits, sugar
and f1avoring matter. The court,
however refused, to agree with these
experts, and held that "Old Tom"
belonged to the 'spirits" family.
maintaining that any other view would
be absurd
Some names of perfectly we'll l-un-
derstood institutions or customs are
difficult of definition from a legal
point Of view. The term "saloon" is
one Of these. The following decisions
were all given more than ten years
since. and their interest is enhanced
by the light of recent events

The legal luminaries of Texas were of
the opinion that saloon meant a
place for the exhibition of works of
art.
The New Hampshire courts at one
time held that "spirituous liquors"
