An Important Decision.
Railroads Not Obliged TO Run on Schedule
Time.

A case has just been decided by
the New York Supreme Court,
which holds that a musician, who
boards a train two hours late and
arrives at his destination two hours
and twenty minutes late, and there
by is unable to keep his engage
ment, cannot recover from the car
rier his loss occasioned thereby,
though he may have made known
to the carriers agent his engage
ment, and may have been told that
the train would arrive on time. The
carriers obligation to run its train
in conformity to schedule is not an
absolute and unconditional one,
and the mere taking of a ticket
does not of itself prove contract
or impose the duty 10 have a train
ready to start as scheduled. Fur
thermore, a ticket agent cannot
make a special contract that a train
will arrive on time.

There gre three principal ways in which the local merchant may
 meet competition. The first is to
 carry right goods at right prices;
 the second is to let people know it; the third is to make the right impression on the customers when they come to trade or in- spect. None of these methods will be successful alone or in combination with one of the oth- CTS. All of them must be used together. The merchant whose goods and prices are not right cannot win and hold good trade by advertising or by courteous treatment, or by both. Goods, prices, and good treatment of customers will not do the busi- ness unless the merchants tell the people what they have. And though a man have the goods and the prices, and though he attracts callers by the best sort of advertising, if his business is not housed and his goods dis played in such a manner as to create a favorable impression, and his treatment of customers is not business like and tactful, he may as we'll get out of business. But with the aforesaid threefold combination in good working order the local merchant is more than the equal of the outside competitors except when it comes to peculiar classes of. goods that cannot be carried in general stock k.-Grand Forks Herald.

y1b brought you, and when the Master needed him in making up his jewels; you yielded him back grudgingly.
 "Then little Viola, the sweetest and brightest of all your babies, folded her little dimpled hands, and shut her blue eyes, before she knew sin and her pure spirit went back to God who gave it, and you grumbled.
 "And as the years rolled on in their solemn march to eternity, and peace and prosperity was crowning the lives of you and yours, another accident, and James, your second son, whom you thought of as the support and stay of your old age was talk. en in the prime of noble man. hood, just as success was crown ing his efforts. His work had been nobly done here and the Master called him up higher, and you grumbled, notwithstanding he left you half dozen loving kindhearted grandchildren to sweeten your declining years. You have been blessed with long life, and the good things of this world; and yet you grumble-"
 Just at this juncture poor un- fortunate cripple came by, mak- ing his way through the crowd upon his hands and knees, his only means of locomotion, and the speaker remarked: "This man can never be blest with the sweet memory of wife and child ren, can never use words to ex- press joy or grief, pleasure or pain.'
 The rigid muscles of the old mans face relaxed and his cold grey eyes gleamed with a sunny twinkle as he remarked: "What a grand, patriotic piece our band boys are giving us. Why, it takes me back to the old camp grounds when I wore the blue and you the gray. In those dark days of our country's struggle for exist. ence, when no prophet would dare predict the glorious peace and prosperity of today"
 A troop of little girls just now came marching by, each waving little flags of red, white and blue, and the old man fairly shouted, "Long may they wave" "child- ren of old glory" He had for gotten to grumble as he looked on the other side where his wife and children were waiting for him.

 DISASTROUS FIRE AT LESLIE
 From the Mountaia Wave we get the following particulars of the recent fire at Leslie in which R. R. Smiles livery barn and G. W. Smiths grocery store were burned:
 Several theories are advanced as to the origin of the fire, the principal one being that the fire started on the inside of the barn from lighted lantern that was thoughtlessly left standing in 8 hack and was overturned by a loose horse in his rambles about the barn. The fire occurred at 10 D. m. and in few minutes the barn and MT. Smiths store building was seething mass of flames. Heroic efforts were made to save the horses in the barn, and Mir. Smiths stock, but it was useless, as the flames had gained too much headway, and the volunteers confined themselves to saving the proper ty adjacent, which was accom-. plished after hard labor.
 Mir. Smiles loss is estimated at S4 ,000, with no insurance. In the barn were thirteen head of horses (twelve of which belonged to MT. Smilie), number of hacks, fine bus, large quan- tity of feed, harness, 8 big stock of paint, oils, glass, etc., and valuable bulldog, all of which is a total loss.
 MT. Smiths loss is estimated at s, 100. with S1 ,000 insurance. His store building ard entire sstock of general merchandise were consumed by the flames. ./ The loss is keenly felt by MT. Smile and MT. Smith, as they were, by patient and hard work, accommodating competence that is always needed for rainy day, and they have the sympa- thy of all their neighbors, who hope to see them recoup their
