The new proprietors are well known young men and have for some time conducted a business on the opposite side of the street, V Referee James H. Horah; before whom the Blnger Sewing Machine Company: against J. W. Poe,: a for mer agent, was heard, nas nanaea down his decision. Mr. Poe bad been in tha employment of the company as agent. The conmoany had a claim-of some considerable amount against him and he set up counter charges of indebtedness to him for freight due him. When the agent delivers a ma chine he is allowed so much per ' cent, on the sale and out of this liberal com mission he must pay the freights. The matter between the company and Poe was it great but it set a preoedent in this State, which has none, and whenever thecase Is settled before, the Supreme Court it involves thousands either way It goes. If the company were made to Day these freights, it would open the way for unending liti gations. Mr. iHorah says in his decis ion: 'The question of freights was argued at length by counsel on both sides. 1 And, as a fact, that nothing is con tained In either Ex. B or in Ex. C re- quiring the defendant to pay the frights; that neither of these contracts purports to embrace all the subjects of contract and that the defendant entered into an extraneous parol agree ment with the plaintiff, to pay the freights In question, and complied with this agreement. I find, further, that this parol agreement was sup ported by proper consideration, and that it did not alter or vary the terms of the written contracts. "I find, as a matter of law, that the defendant is bound by said parol agreement, and that he is not entitled to recover any sum whatever from the plaintiff on account of freights." Messrs. H. C. Williams and Roscoe Hobertson have opened a skating rink over Mr. Williams' store, a large room it Is, able to furnish merriment for a score at a time. There is probably no one thing that could give greater pleasure that this. Salisbury has not had a skating rink in ten years and roller skates have not been carried in stock during that time. Mr. Williams will rent or sell skates to the public and charge a small fee for the use of the floor. Mr. Robertson will conduct the rink and the popularity of the two young men will undoubtedly make It a financial go. Mi.
