WRITERS IN BRITISH ARMY
"All Sorts and Conditions of Men"
Seem to Be Gathering Under
i.ord Kitchener.
The new army is the most interesting
army there has been in England
since the days of Oliver Cronrwell,
in the sense that it is drawn
from all ranks and interests in the
country. Men who have won distinction
in the world of books are
not lacking. A body that is well
represented is the group of young
historians and writers who are associated
with the Workers' Educational
association and the modern

three of the authors of that valuable
book, "Economic Documents,"
published by Messrs. Bell, are now
soldiers. Mr. Tawney, who was one
of the leaders of the Workers'Educational
movement, and is chiefly
known for a book on the sixteenthcentury
inelosures (which is likely
to become a standard work on the
subject), is a private in one of the
new battalions which are being
raised in Manchester. Mr. P. A.
Brown enlisted in the Durham
light infantry, and is now an officer
in that regiment, while Mr. Bland
is in training in the Officers' Training

is also one of the leading spirits in
that movement, is an officer in the
Territorial artillery, and Mr. Keelinnr

DESERVED TRIBUTE.
With the death of Bertram Dobell
we lose a man who hml rendered a
great service to literature, says the
Westminster Gazette. To the limited
public which was interested in
old books and the byways of literature
he was known as a lxx>kseller,
and one of the most successful of his
time. To the greater literary public
he was known as a pleaeant poet aud
prose writer and the discoverer and
publisher of the work of several poets
of the past. Chief of these was
Thomas Troherne, whose manuscripts
came into Dobcll's hands.
With great industry he traced the
authorship and then gave the l>ook
to the world. He did a similar service
for William Strode, another forgotten
poet.
A NICE DISCRIMINATION.
"I dare say women get bettor results
by studying the fashion plates
I than they do by studying each others*
clothes.*'
"Why so?"
"Well, there's a certain amount
of animosity aroused when 0110
woman sees another woman well
dressed and this feeling is apt to
hlind her to some of the fine points
of the other's attire."

HELD COMPANY NOT LIABLE
Decision of Kentucky Court of Some
Interest to the Holders of Tornado
Insurance.
Liability under a policy of tornado
insurance was passed on by
the court of appeals of Kentucky
in National Fire Insurance company
vs. Crutchfield, in which it appeared
that a river overflowed and
surrounded certain buildings covered
by policies insuring against all
direct loss or damage by tornado,
wind storm or cyclone, but which
provided that the company should
not be liable for loss or damage
occasioned by high water or overflow.
The water was from one to
four feet deep in each of the buildings
and was rising slowly when a
high wind arose which produced
heavy waves that were driven
against the buildings, loosening the
foundations, and when the wind became
more violent and the waves
higher the buildings were lifted
from their foundations and thrown
over. It appeared that neither the
overflow nor the wind storm would
have caused the damage alone had
nor ine oiner cause concurreu witn
it. It was held that there could he
no recovery on the policy, as the
damage was not directly caused by
the wind storm, since if the water
had not surrounded the buildings
it could not have been blown
against, them and that the flood was
therefore at least indirottly, if not
directly, the cause of the damage.

8EEMS ROUGH ON BRAKEMAN.
An experienced brakeman was held
negligent in Williams vs. Kansas
City. Southern Railway company before
the supreme court of Missouri.
The testimony showed that on a dark
night, with nothing but a red lantern
to furnish light, this brakeman j
jumped from the pilot of an engine
and ran between the rails to throw
a switch before the train reached it.
He stumbled over an uneven place in
the track and was injured by the
train, and the court held him negligent,
"although he acted upon a custom
of placing trains on sidings by
heating thorn to the switches.''
