A meeting of the executive committee

Interesting Opinions of the Massachusetts
Supreme Court.
Thelastuumber of the Massachusetts
court reports contains two decisions in
regard to the rights of a traveler and the
duty of a motorman driving an electric
car in the highway. in one case the
unanimous opinion of the supreme judi-
cal court is thus cxpresnsl:
"if a horse attached to a carriage
while being driven along a highway, be-
comes frightened at the noise made by
an approaching electric street car and
such fright is manifest to tho motormsn.
it is his duty to do what be reasonably
can in the management of the car to di-
minish the fright of the horse, and if, in-
stead of stopping the car, or ceasing to
sound the gong upon it, he continues to
propel the car, and to rush a loud
clamor with the gong, causing the horse
to become unmanageable and to throw
the driver out of the carriage and in-
jure him, the driver, if he was in the ex-
ercise of due care. may maintain an
action for the in jut y ogarnst,the railroad
commotion.
And further, “that the jury were
rightly instructed to consider tlioquew
tion whether the mowmmu of the cur
ought to have seen the frightened con-
dition of the horse. if he did not set; it.
and to treat his failure to secit,whcn
he might have seen u, by the i-xvrcise
of due care, as nugligumru,"
The moturmno should have his our
under control, and if he 9mm that a
horse is frightened it is his manifest duty
to slacltcu hi4 armed and stop the our if
iiccsmnry. The rights of the drivers of
a homaand a car are equal, and each
must use the way with a amenable re—
gard for the safety and convenience of

An Enemy of the Elm Posts.
How many there are who,in their rage
at the elm beetles and rosebugs, destroy
every kind of an insect they find on their
plants. Particularly does the ladybird
—or “lady hug"——fall a prey to those
who are searching for the bug. ‘But in
point of f‘zi'ut the ladyhird should be
shown every courtesy and be encouraged
to come often and stay long. While
itself perfectly harmless, it is known to
make its living oil" from other and dele-
furious insects and recently it has been
discovered that the ladybird's grubs are
deadly enemies of the elm pests. Why
the United States government so appeci-
ates the ladybird and is so gallant that a
few weeks ago it ordered that an excep-
tion should be made in its favor in the
rule prohibiting sending live things
