In a suit for damages brought against
the National American, the Supreme
Court of Tennessee has decided that a
newspaper has the legal right to publish
fair and truthful reports Of proceedings
in a court Of justice.
In a lower court damages for 5000 had
been allowed, but the judgment has been
reversed On appeal.
This Supreme Court decision is in har-
mony with the law of California, which
expressly declares the right of newspa-
pers to print fair and truthful reports
of court proceedings. No other rule
would be fair to the press or the public.
The readers of newspapers have a natural
right to learn what takes place in court.
Publicity is a great safeguard against
corruption of the bench, and also a most
effective moral influence. 1t is a big
stick held over the heads of all who are
disposed to practice law breaking or ras-
cality of any kind. A host of rogues and
other evil-doers dread newspaper ex-
posture through court proceedings far
more than the risk of legal punishment.

NEW TRAIN SHED WRINKLE.

Up-An Occasional Travellers Finds.

Up-An Occasional Travellers Finds.
well, said a stay at home Manhattanite;
.I've been travelling again; and this time
I got as far away as Orange, N. j., by the
Lackawanna r ilroad, and on this trip 1
discovered two things that were new-to
me, anyway.
@One OF them was the new train she'd
that the L3ckswanna folks are putting up
in Hoboken. There may be d million suoh
train sheds In various parts Of the world
for all l know, but I never saw anything
like It before, and as far as I oan see tie q
bird.
Instead Of building a great lofty train
shed, with giant, high springing arches
supporting q single soaring, wide spreading
roof covering all the station tracks, they
are putting up here a train shed with q
roof composed Of q series Of comparatively
low arches, each covering only two tracks
and the platforms on either side Of them,
but these arched roof sections, ranging side
by side and joining, form all together
a con tinuous roof over all the tracks.
This train shed Is, Of course, OF iron and
steel construction, while the greater part
OF the roof Of each section ia Of glass, as
mig hit have been expected; but upon further
inspection q remarkable, uniform feature
OF all the roof sections appears;
AOver each and every track in the station
there Is a long, continuous slot in the roof
which directly over the top OF the
smoke stack OF any locomotive that might
be on the truck beneath. so that on what
ever track in it or In whatever part OF the
train shed an engine might be standing
the gases and smoke from its smoke stack
wouTi be- discharged not into the station
but up through that slot In the roof above
it into the outer tir =.
Il TN not a r-ilroad N IN, but ] should
cav th.t this must be the very latest and
m ost up to date thing In the way Of train
sneda.
"The other new thing I saw was q car
window that you don't have to push up.
In n car fitted with windows Of this sort
you find projecting inward from the side
OF the car Just below tho window sill two
little metal pinch pieces like those you find
on the bottom stick OF some window shades,
You press these two little pinch pieces to-
Rether between the thumb and finger and
UP flies the window, or you can stop the
window wherever you want to by releasing
your hold on them. To me-, anyhow,
this automatic car window wa an interest
ing novelty
