RAILROADS ARE LIABLE.

If you are travelling and leave your
suitcase sticking out into the train
aisle and another passenger falls over
that suitcase and breaks his leg. you
are not responsible, but the railroad
is, and must pay for the leg. Such, in
effect, was established last week by
the jury in the United States district
court which awarded A. II. and G..
Nelson 81 800 damages against the
Santa Fe for dislOcated ankle and
badly bruised knee, sustained by trip
ping over a travelling bag in the aisle
of one of the roads coaches at San
Bernardino a year ago. Mrs Nelson
asked for $4,000.
There was no claim of negligence
Oh the part of the railroads agents
or employees, but the allegation was
made that, according to the doctrine
of the care which a common carrier
must exercise for the protection of
its patrons, the company was liable

that it was not liable for the admit

ground a month when she left our
intake and began cutting for the east
bank We threw out brush and
Sandhag Jetty and forced her back"
Mr. Clarke says that settlers are
coming into the Palo Verde district
very rapidly, and he suggests that
Los Angeles business men would do

cause the district will be tributary

year. Instead of investing this sum,
insignificant in comparison with
a human life, to protect people who
are compelled to cross the tracks at
Sixth street, the p. r. r. officials
prefer adding that much to their
profits. During the past year more
than a score of people have narrowly
escaped death while crossing over the

CONFLICT OF GAME LAWS.

PROCLAMATION by President Wilson that the new
i Federal game law for the protection OF migratory
birds went into effect October last has thrown
gunners in Delaware and other States into a
OF uncertainty. That is because the open seasons
fixed by the Federal law for certain n tory birds
in conflict with the fixed by the State laws
The concensus Of opinion is that the Federal law
must be oheyed, regardless OF the state laws and
that if disregard Il Eey will find themselves
in trouble With the Federal authorities.
Let us consider the conflict between the Federal
and tn, State laws here in Delaware
Under the Federal law wild geese and Wild ducks
only may be killed between November l and January
81. The State law provides t.ey may be killed be-
tween October and March 15 inclusive. Wood
cock only may be killed between November
and December 81 under the Federal law. Under the
STATE law woodcock may not be killed until Novem-
Der Is.
1t will be seen, therefore. that the conflict places
the Delaware gunner exceedingly unpleasant po-
sition until he receives definite official advice rea-
tive to which law to obey Such advice should not
be delayed unnecessarily by the Federal and the
State officials. IT, as has been said law is common
sense it would to be the part of wisdom OF
Delaware gunners to obey the Federal law when
hunting for such birds

Are you looking for trouble?' one

his companion and asked: shall l
give it to him?" Receiving a reply IN
the affirmative, he whipped out a re-
volver and fred at Smith, the bullet
striking him in the thigh and passing
all the way through. Smith was sent
to the Delaware Hospital. and a crowd
collected: but by the time anyone
thought about looking for the gunman
