An Important Ueclslon by the Sniiretne Conrt, There was handed down by the Su premo Court In Philadelphia, January 1th, a decision of much Importanco to saloon keepers nnd bartenders. It was In tho coso of Caroline Davis against Follx McKnlghtand others, of Phila delphia. On a night In October, 1889, Robert Davis, husband of tho plaintiff, be came Intoxicated on liquor furnished by the defendants, and on his way homo fell In a gutter and lay there. Tho guttor was full of water, and Davis got the pneumonia and died. A Jury gavo his widow substantial dam ages. Tho saloon keeper's only de fenso was that tho liquor was not the proximate cause of death, and that what Davis drank ho drank voluntar ily. The Supremo Court holds that tho verdict of the jury Is conclusive upon tho llrst point, and as to tho sec ond, says: "The contention that the voluntary taking of liquor by tho de ceased, while Intoxicated, and bolng at tho time of known tntemperato habits, was such contributory negligence upon his part as would provont a re covery by the plaintiff, will not bear examination. Such n ruling would practically destroy tho act of Assem bly. Every drunkard not only takes liquor voluntarily, but whenover ho can get It, and because of his weakness tho law makos tho saloon keeper re sponslblo for selling to such persons. He has not tho will power to resist the temptation, and for this roason, the sale to him Is forbidden." Acting on this, tho Supremo Court affirms tho docislon of tho lower court in giving a verdict for the widow.

Bishop Bowman, ot Chicago, 111,, while In town tho other day, run up against Rov. Sampsol, ofLohighton, ono of tho llvllost loaders of tho minori ty. Tho latter hold out his hand to tho Bishop but In return only received wicked look and a rebuke for his effort at friendliness, tho Bishop ro- arklng that ho didn't fool disposed to shake hands with traitors. Well, con sidering the way Sampsol Is worrying the Bishop mobbe ho was right. Even with tho clergy It Is pretty hard to follow out the dlvlno law of "smiting ono cheek nnd then turning tho other." TIIET WANT DAMAGES. Proceedings havo been Instituted In tho Common Pleas Court of this coun ty, against tho Jorsoy Central Railroad Company for damages by Mrs. Alice Tripp, widow of Alfred Tripp, Carrie and William Smith, parents of W. II. Smith, Jr., and Susan Pobst, widow of John Pobst. Tho plaintiffs each want $20,000 damagos; Thoso cases grew out of tho boiler explosion which oc curred In tho Mauch Chunk yards of tho Central Railroad on tho night of Juno 29, 1891. It will bo romomberod that ongtno No. 235, used as n shifter In tho yards, oxplodod shortly before midnight, bringing instant death to Englneor Tripp, Fireman Pobst nnd Brakeman Smith and Gallagher. Im mediately after tho explosion, tho Dls trlct Attorney ordered on Investiga tion, nnd tho Coroner's jury heard n great deal of testimony. Tho oxpert witnesses examined tho wrecked en gine at different times, nnd both wore of tho opinion that tho explosion was caused by low wntor. Tho jury ren dered n verdict in nccordance with the testimony of tho exports, and In n sup plementary way scored tho railroad company for allowing dofoctlvo rolling stock to bo in dally service Tho ver dict proper, however, was that low wator causod tho boiler to oxplodo, and this shifted all blame from the company to tho omployos who had chargo of tbo locomotive at tho time. Frederick Bertolette, Esq., of town, nnd Gen. W. It. McCartney, of Wilkes Barro, havo been retained by tho plaintiffs, and expect to have tho case speedily t ried. A summons was served on Thursday by tho Sheriff on Super intendent Geo. W. Twining, of the Lohlgh of Susquehanna Division, who Is the agont in this Stato for tho Cen tral Company. Tho plaintiffs expect to prove that tho oxploslon was tho result of other causes, and that tho locomotlvo was woll supplied with wator at that tlmo. If they aro ablo to show this, they expect to bo awarded big damages. IN A FEW LINES.
