as any evidence of a quarrelsome dis
position. The old man's remark belup, there
fore, unprovoked, It was taken by the ,
others to indicate Ills purpose to leu
r story and their recoRnltlon of his ,
Intention led them to betray their feel- f
Ings In several different ways, .lake
iVintcrboltom settled himself a little
more comfortably In his chair, as If
thinking to enjoy n period of slumber.
Sam Pearsall Rlanced nervously to
ward the door, as if to make sure that
notliinR would Interfere with his prog
ress In that direction. In case he should
determine to leave, the room uncere
moniously, Joe H.issett took a pack
use of tobacco out of his pocket and
besan rcfllllliR his pipe, and .Mm Itlals
dell spoke of a lighting dog of which
hp was the proud possessor.
"That thar dawg o' mine." he said.

Pears like it's a kylnd of a simial fo'
a lot o' wild assps o1 the wilderness fo'

"Jackasses Reniy docs liray." said
Jakp Wlntprbottoni, as one who per
ceives an important truth, "when they
hears a other .me notin' his horn.
Tears like it mines n.u-hul to 'em."
The effect of this urexpected retort
was to cause the others Immediately
tn lose Interest in the proposition
I'earsnll had made. The cut and iIor
tournament could be arranged at any
time, but the present upenuiR was not
tn bp ncRlected.
The old man choked un to .Mich an
extent that he not nii.y found himself '
unable to speak for u few moments,
but began to assume a purplish ap-
pearaiico of a somewhat threatening i
character. It seemed likely that he
would not be able to control himself i
without having recourse to the use of
a bunRstartrr, and the hopps of his
bpholders soared high. After n time
however, his agitation subsided anil
lie regained his power of speech.
"I P"Ckon mebbe if I wa'n't ' peace

have a cjuiiti thrusted unto tne, right

the (leiirula Couit of Appeals discusses
the. question lis to whether It Is necll.
I Rence or contributory negligence fur a
j person to do so. The court says that In
order to sustain In the atllriuatlie view
"we would be compelled to hold that,
accordhiR to common knnwIedRe, practi
cally so universal as to amount to Judi
cial notice, kerosene oil Is a substance
so highly explosive and so dangerous,
when brotiKht Into close proximity to

Inn it to kindle, a fire would be prop

The court "tales that kerosene oil of

and was Instead made dancerous to be
used In kindllnR lire., It was thniiRht
that not nerefsarlly was the question

In this way The court goes Into dis
cussion In reRurd to n supposed di-
titictiotl In the cases between KilltlllK

and murine oil on a tire tn nnlcken tfs
burnlne. some courts holdlnir th l.titop!
to be contributory negligence barring
recovery while ruling that "the whole
matter should be relegated to the Jury
for determination and a recovery would
depend Upon evidence disclosing whe-
thr or not keroseno oil could lie used
with safety In the manner the netttion
alleges It was actually emtilnved bv tbe

Commenting on the case the Ceiifrnl
f.aie Journal believes that the ie
taken by the court "gives to one who

of benefit he would be entitled to lepelve.
Such a one after violating a law in the
interest of nubile safetv h.mllv should
be thought In a position to criticise the
user of an article Inherently dangerous.
There ought to be, at least, something
1 of presumption against such a one
not to be displaced except upon ier

lawful article was not the proximate
