Q. Wtrc you generally known to be a reporter? This was objected to, and Mr. Welch made h long argument in favor of its legality, but the objection was sustained, the judge holding that the parties who received the letter were liable for its pro mulgation and not the writer. Thero ia nothing ill this case, ho eaid, to show that the association was the agent of tho de fendant, .md he id nut responsible for the u-o made of it outside Lho association.

The Fourt—Is all tbe evidence in with regard to the publication? Mr. Welch—I think it is. Thu Fourt -Then I will bear what is to be said as to whether tho letter is libelous, and second, whether it was privileged. Mr. Welch argued tho matter for the plaintiff, lb* held that the letter was not only hbi-lous, but libelous per ae and that it outams enough in it to charge, and dots charge a crime. Mr. Rogers ansivt-red, claiming thero was nothing li* belouft, aud read authorities iu support of hib argument. THE CASE DISMISSED. Judge Fburchili then dismissed the caoc with costs to tbo plaintiff, on tho ground that the articlo was not Ubeious, and that the defendant did not claim that tho plaintiff, having no patent, was en deavoring to impose upon tbo public by threats of procedure, or in any other way, knowing that bis patent was luvalid, but that he bad a patent which ho was inUndmg to on fore by prooeduro. It may i.«-*. t.. an illegal way winch the plain tiff tak* s fo enforce hts rights under bis patent. But th«* writer intimates that he doubts very much tbat it can bt* enforced to the extent intimated. But there is uo intimation that lho plaintiff knew it was invalid or tlmt the defendant know it, ur that lie i*as threatening to extoit mono) tn an improper or illegol way. It was a perfectly piuprr suggestion mado to tho association asking co-operation in fight ing what tbo plaintiff claimed to bo bis rights in tbe matter. Tboro is no thing tn th* letter which can be said to bo fulfip.

Tho result of tne ne^n-ct was illus trated Friday morning in a very serious and trying manner. Mrs. Martha Baker Solon, aged abont 31 years, n daughter of the late John Flagg, died nf consumption, Tuesday of this week. Three physicians had attend ed her. The funeral services took place Friday morning from St. Patrick’s church at 0:30, and tbo arrangements were in charge of Doyle ft Son, tho undertakers. Members of this Urni applied four times at tbe office of tbo health officer for the required burial permit, but they could obtain none, os no certificate of death had been filed by tb . attending physician. The names of tbe pbysioiana are given as Drs. Conk, Rosehaum and Fuller. INTERMENT ttBPUBRD. Ti,0 remains were taken to St. Agnes’ cemetery for burid. As required by tbe law, Sexton Dutton asked for a permit from the heallh officer. Not being able to obtain one, Undertaker Doyle could not give one to the sexton, and interment wns declined—-as is legal and proper. The remains had to1» left m the cem etery, but when the rain began to fall they were placed in the chapel for shelter, while the relatives of tbe deceased search for some one of the attending physicians who will give a certificate of the cause of death. If there are laws providing for the fil ing of certificates, it seems bb if the board of health (which has extraordinary powers! should attempt to cnforco them. Undertakers generally complain that they and tho mends of the dead ln their charge are harassed beyond msssaro by tho neglcet of physicians to comply with the law. Tho reasons for withholding of & certificate in this case could not bo learned by Undertaker Doyle. Perhaps tho attendant physician- or physicians will tell tbem. Perhaps tho health officer may bo induced to make this case a test as to whether tho laws aro of any count.” C ojiiju coiiimorcJ il Advoriisor. Bt.

In such caso tho applicant does not fraudulently or knowingly misrepresent his condition, This decision accords with justice and Aunmon ftpnse.

The plaintiff claimed he bad t h e misfortune to purchase a horse of tho defendant for 075. Ho claimed d e fendant declared the beast was kind, sound aad gentle, but when he hitched It np tho animal turned out te be one of the w o n t kickers in seven counties. It kicked so hard eo tbat it could have kicked the stars oil the star spangled banner. It would have kicked if it was going to be huDg.
