Plaintiff was injured in a Ignite

ing that the injury was occasioned
though the i~ncompetency of the pit
boss or foreman Of the mine. Defend
ants deny negligence upon their part
that contributed TO the injury and al
lege that the plaintiff was himself
guilty of contributory negligence. Evi-
dence examined. and held:
1. That there was sufficient evil
dence showing h incompetency OF
the pit boss to support the findings OF
the jury in that particular.
2. That owing to the uncertainty
of the evidence regarding the position
Of plaintiff at the time he was iniur-
ed it was impossible for the jury to
say whether or not the accident was
occasioned as the result of any act of
the pit boss and that a new trial
would be necessary for this reason
alone, wsre it not that the third hold
ing disposed of the case.
ti3. 1t was the duty Of the plaintiff
to- examine the roof Of the room In
which he worked and discover and
remedy any defects in the same. Ac-
cording to plaintiffs own testimony

90 The court instructed the jury as
ltolloWs: For 1t is for you to say
whether or not in this case the plain
tiff has established his case or con-
WINGED you jurymen by a preponder-
ance of testimony that there was a
binding contract entered into between
these PARTIES whereby the defendant
agreed to pay the plaintiff $3.50 as
commission for the sale of the land
in question. IF you are satisfied, as I
i1timated a moment ago, that the
plaintiff has proved to your satisfac-
tion that there was such a contract.
then it is your duty under, your oath
to bring in a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff" This instruction was cx-
eepted to, that they failed to present
to h jury the necessity of the con-
tract being performed by the plaintiff
in that it fails to state that before the
plaintiff will be entitled to ecove he
must first sell the land according to
the terms of said contract. This also

this il error because interest rests in

Just a Little lesson.

A. J.. Warehouse in Sunset Maya
zine: One evening we had dinner
with the Browns ana afterWard we
adjourned to the porch and there en-
gagged in CHEEKY conversation while
Brown and I smoked. The subject un-
der discussion eventually drifted
around to matrimony. it's trials, vicis-
STUDIES and many uncertainties, as 1t
is quite likely to do where married
people congregate. We discussed those
peculiarities of human nature which
make for domestic happiness or UNI
happiness. Brown was quite eloquent
on the subject.
Most men, he said, tsare thought
less in their domestic financial ar
rangements. They do not intend to be
mean but their lack of consideration
sometimes stops hardly short of that.
Now, my wife''-here he arose. placed

with BartlesOn is void because the
bond given by said contractor was not
furnished until after the signing of the
contract. Held: That this is a mere
lrregularity which makes the members
OF the board liable personally for GER
tain claims against the building, but
does not vitiatc the contract.
CD 1t is claimed that said contract
Is void because the title to the court
house site had not been vested in the
county prior to the signing Of the
contract. From the evidence, however,
1t appear h a II Taylor has agreed
to donate a site and hat his offer has
been accepted by the board. In the
absence of a showing to the con-
trary, 1T will be presumed that the
board has an enforceable contract
with Taylor and is in a position to
obtain title to the site when neces-
sary.
(3) The third reason for an attack

upon the contract is that it contains
no provision for lighting, heating and
sewerage systems. Plaintiffs contend
that the building without such ap-
planes is useless for courthouse pur-
poses n that the commissioners in
tend to supply these additions from
other funds not authorized by the
voters to be SO expended. Held: That
under section 1856 r. C.. 1906, the
county commissioners are given entire
supervision of the construction of
such courthouse and the courts will
not interfere with such supervision so
long as the board is exercising it's
discretion in good faith. The board in
this instance is not expanding more
than the $4,000. authorized. This
court will not anticipate any Illegal
action upon their part. 1t is admitted
that there is at the present time no
electric light plant, no city water
works, and no sewerage system, in
the town where the said courthouse
IS to be erected and it rests in the
sound discretion of the board of
county commissioners to say whether
the said courthouse shall contain
those appliances at the present time.
