The judgement for the State in

charge, was affirmed by the law
court in a rescript per curtain, the
exceptions of the defendant being
overruled. The rescript reads:
The evidence in the case tends
to show that the respondent sold at
his house, two bottles of beer, which
were drunk on the premises, and a
pint of alcohol, which was taken
away, and that on the following day
upon search of the house, an i'm
provised still, six gallons of mash,
thirty bottles of home brewed beer
and ninety empty bottles were
found.
This evidence does not necessarily,
and as a matter of law, prove that
the respondent kept and maintained
a common nuisance, but it justifles
the jury in so finding
The presiding justice defined the
term common nuisance with a suffi-
cient degree of accuracy. The re-
fusal of the Justice to define the
term again in different words as con-
tanned in a requested instruction was
not error.

RESCRIPTS ON TWO
AUTOMOBILE CASES
BY JUSTICE DEASy

Judgement in the sum of $1,000 Is
maintained by the law court in the
case of Dansky ct al VS. Kotimaki by
a Kennebec country transcript hand
ed down by Justice Deasy on Fri
day. Three cases are involved, they
going to the law court on report.
Two were Dansky VS. Kotimaki In
which judgment was for defendant
and the third was Small vs. Koti-
MAXI in which the judgement for the
plaintiff in the sum of $1,000 was al
lowed.
The case has to do with a COLI
sion of automobiles and the rescrtpt
reads as follows:
A violation of the statutory rule
Of the road, which, at crossings, gives
the right of way to vehicles ap-
preaching from the right, is prima
facie evidence Of negligence.
A motorist approaching to enter
upon a highway crossing is not un-
der ordinary circumstances required
to stop. To listen may avail notn-
ing. But he must look. There are
vastly more automobiles than trains
and some at least are less noisy than
trains. For, this reason the duty OF
looking upon entering a highway IN
tersection is even more imperative
than at railroad crossing.
A rate of speed at which motor
list may safely, properly and lawful
ly drive over hard, level and ia
miliar road may be negligent when
he is driving down hill over a
strang and sandy road. That a driv-
er has no knowledge of an intersect-
ing road does not justify him In
driving as If there were no inter-
secting roads.
The collision which gave rise TO
these actions was due to the joint
negligence of the defendant and the
plaintiffs driver. Therefore In the
actions brought by the plaintin as
owner of the damaged car, and as
administrator of the driver who was
killed by the accident. judgment
must be rendered for the defendant.
But Blanche Small, the other plain
tiff, was a passenger. The negi-
gence- of the driver is not imputabie
to her. 1t fairly appears that no
want of due care on her part con-
tributed to the accident. She is en-
