THE END.
Liability Of Lawyers.

Consul General Gusnther says the
German lawyers are liable in dam
ages to their clients for evil results
consequent upon misleading advice
He writes that the Supreme Court OF
Germany has recently rendered a de-
cision that an attorney at law Is la
BILE to his client to the full extent for
carelessly giving incorrect advice
The Court held that the attorney
who, for pay. gives his client In legal
matters advice as to certain conduct
and procedure Ia liable for the legal
consequences suffered by the client
in acting thereon. provided That such
advice Is not only faulty. but has
been proven to have been given care
lessly. Through the expressly sta
ted or tacit offer of remuneration for
information and advice concerning a
question, an attorney tacitly assumes
the position OF debtor OF the client.
which obliges him to be careful in
giving advice, and he Is therefore
liable for its consequences If he has
failed through carelessness.

Mr.. Clark ne said. as he laid a half
dollar on the table.
Very well. Richard-thank you"
He opened a drawer and took ont
two silver quarter dollars which he
pocketed with Dicks half dollar;
then removing dollar bill from his
notebook. he slipped 1t into an en-
velope with other bills. and replaced
the envelope in the drawer.
Now we have it all in bills, Rich

Yes, sir" answered Dick, who
had eyed the money with a boys
curiosity
Mr. Clark smiled benignly, and
Dick went to his seat. Through the
afternoon he was repeatedly re-

lar estimation. Girls-all but Ma

MANY NEW
BUILDINGS
Year of 1905 Was Record
Breaker and Much ActiY-
ity Was Shown.
HUNDREDS OF RESIDENCES
BUILT LAST YEAR.
A Score of New Business Blocks
! and Many Improvements to
{ Old Ones.

Nothing is more indicative of
the healthy condition of a city
than disposition on the part of
the residents to permanently
make their home there. There
fore when one sees substantial
and ornamental residences spring
up from year to year it means
that those who build the resi-
dences intend to make their
homestead and live on those
homesteads. Bemidji has a
number of fine old homes, and
large number of fine new ones
which have evidently been erect
ed by the builders for themselves
and their families.
The year Of 1905 has been busy
in this respect. Some years in
the past have the building Of a
large mum Der Of houses, but it is
doubtful whether any year has
seen the building of such a
character as the past twelve
months. IG is evid e n t
in almost every case that a
fairly large expenditure has been
made, and all of the houses erect
ed have been large, comfortable
and substantial, evidently for
the purpose of pleasing the
builder and his family who have
designed the houses for the pur-
pose of spending there large
portion of their future life.
The activity in the building Of
new and the repairing of old bust
ness blocks has also been mar
velous during the past twelve
months. No less than score of
new brick buildings have been
erected IN the heart of the city,
while the improvements made to
some of the older buildings have
cost thousands of dollars.
