delivered the opinion of the court.
There are five assignments of error in this case.
1. The plaintiff was permitted to amend the complaint by adding two paragraphs thereto after the commencement of the trial. These amendments did not substantially change the cause of action. Therefore the court had the right in its discretion to allow them: Section 102 L. O. L.; Doyle v. Southern Pac. Co., 56 Or. 495 (108 Pac. 201).
2. The defendant assigns as error the refusal of the court below to give the jury the requested charges numbered from two to ten, both inclusive. These requested charges were not discussed in the argument, and we presume that the defendant intended to waive ■any consideration of them by this court. However, we have examined them in connection with the instructions given, and we find that the substance of them was given in the instructions that were prepared and given *138by the court. The instructions of the court are lengthy and fair, and covered every point in issue.
3. A trial court has the right to instruct the jury in its own language, and it is not error to refuse to give requested charges that state the law correctly, when the substance of the requested charges have been incorporated into the instructions prepared and given by the court: McGregor v. Oregon R. & N. Co., 50 Or. 527 (93 Pac. 465, 14 L. R. A. (N. S.) 668); Roth v. Northern Pac. Lumbering Co., 18 Or. 205 (22 Pac. 842); Galvin v. Brown & McCabe, 53 Or. 598 (101 Pac. 671); La Grande Nat. Bank v. Blum, 27 Or. 215 (41 Pac. 659); Nutt v. Isensee, 60 Or. 395 (119 Pac. 722). There was no error in refusing to give the requested charges.
The main points relied upon by the defendant in the argument are based upon the refusal of the court to grant a nonsuit, and the refusal of the court to instruct the jury to return a verdict for the defendant on the alleged ground that there was not sufficient evidence to be submitted to the jury, etc. These points raise substantially the same question.
4. If,.when the plaintiff’s evidence in chief was in, there was not sufficient evidence to be submitted to the jury, the defendant’s motion for a nonsuit should have been allowed.
5. If, when all the evidence in the case was in, there was not sufficient evidence to be submitted to the jury, the defendant’s motion for an instructed verdict should have been allowed.
6. Section 183, L. O. L., provides as follows: “A cause not sufficient to be submitted to the jury is one where it appears that, if the jury were to find a verdict for the plaintiff upon any or all of the issues t'o be tried, the court ought, if required, to set it aside for want of evidence to support it.” Article VII, Section 3 of the Constitution, as amended (see Laws 1911, *139p. 7), provides under what conditions a verdict may he set aside for want of sufficient evidence to support it as follows: “In actions at law, where the value in controversy shall exceed $20.00, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury shall be otherwise re-examined in any court of this state, unless the court can affirmatively say there is no evidence to support the verdict.” A verdict to be protected by this provision of the Constitution must be one rendered in a court having jurisdiction of the parties and the subject matter in a trial where there were no reversible errors of law committed by the court. A verdict thus rendered cannot be set aside by any court unless such court can say affirmatively»that there was no evidence to support it.
7. Construing Section 183, L. O. L., and Article YU, Section 3, of the Constitution together, we find that a motion for a judgment of nonsuit or an instructed verdict for the defendant should be allowed only when the court can say affirmatively that there is no evidence to support a verdict for the plaintiff. By the term “evidence, ’ ’ used in this connection, is meant legal evidence tending to support the plaintiff’s case.
8. The question, then, for decision is, Was there any evidence in the court below to support "a verdict for the plaintiff?
The evidence showed that the plaintiff was working for the defendant at the defendant’s freight depot in Portland on July 1, 1911, unloading freight from cars, and that he had been working for the defendant in that capacity nearly two years; that he had worked for other railroads in the middle west at the same sort of work about six years; that he understood that sort of work; and that he was accustomed to handling heavy freight.
*140On July 1,1911, a safe arrived from Seattle en route to Boise, Idaho, and it was necessary to take it out of a freight-car and transfer it about 200 feet and put it into another car. It was boxed, so that it could not be readily determined that the box contained a safe. The plaintiff and his witnesses testified that the safe weighed about 1,800 pounds, and the defendant’s witnesses estimated that it weighed about 1,100 pounds. One of the defendant’s witnesses says the safe was round, like a ball, and that it was top-heavy. This witness, who acted as foreman in handling freight, said that about one safe a day was received by the defendant, and that he never saw a safe boxed, excepting safes -of the same kind as the one in question, and that safes usually came unboxed so that it could be seen that they were safes. The plaintiff testified that this was the only safe that he ever saw that was boxed.
■ On July 1, 1911, the foreman of those handling freight decided to unload this safe, and transfer it to another car about 200 feet distant. The foreman had five or six men in the car to move this safe, and called to the plaintiff to go and assist in moving it. They used a hand-truck in their efforts to move the box containing the safe. The foreman admitted that he decided that it was best to use a hand-truck for that purpose. The plaintiff testified that there were four men behind the truck and three at the handles, and that he had hold of one handle of the truck. He says, also, that the men behind the box containing the safe tipped it over on to the truck, and that the truck with the box on it was so heavy that he could not hold it, and that it pressed him down, and the truck fell on his foot and mashed two toes and cut off one of them. The toe cut off was the big toe of his left foot. He testified that the loss of this toe made him lame.
*141The evidence shows that his toe was cut oft substantially as he claims. The plaintiff testified that he did not know or believe at the time that there was a safe in said box, or that it was heavy. He says that he was not informed by anyone that the box contained a safe, or that it was heavy, or that there was any danger in handling it. He did not see the waybill.
The amended complaint alleges that, when the box containing the said safe was tipped over upon the hand-truck, which the plaintiff and two other men were holding, the weight thereof was too great for them to hold. The amended complaint asserts also that the defendant was guilty of negligence0 in not furnishing the plaintiff and the others working with him reasonably safe appliances with which to unload said safe, and claims that the hand-truck furnished was not a reasonably safe appliance with which to move said safe, and that the defendant should have furnished rollers or other safe appliances for that purpose and failed to do so. The amended complaint alleges also that the defendant was negligent in that it did not furnish enough men to handle said safe, and that the defendant neglected to warn or notify the plaintiff of the contents or weight of said box or of the danger attendant upon moving it upon a hand-truck, etc.
The evidence on the part of the plaintiff tended to show that he did not know the contents of said box or that it was heavy, and that he was not warned by anyone that there was any danger attendant upon moving said box with a hand-truck, etc. The evidence in behalf of the plaintiff tended also to show that a hand-truck was not a reasonably safe appliance with which to handle said safe, and that rollers are the proper appliances to be used in moving such heavy freight, and that the defendant had no rollers that could have been used for that purpose, and that the rollers which *142the defendant had were not of the proper size or length for nse in moving said safe, etc.
On the other hand, the evidence on 'the part of the defendant tended to show that the hand-truck used was a reasonably safe appliance for moving said safe, and that rollers would not have been safe or proper appliances to use in moving it; and the evidence for the defendant tended also to show 'that there were plenty of rollers there of the right size and length that could have been used in moving said safe, and also that the hand-truck used was a better and safer appliance for handling said safe than rollers would have been, etc. The evidence for the defendant tended to show to some extent also that the plaintiff should have known from the appearance of the box containing the safe that it was heavy, etc.
"Without attempting to give the substance of all the evidence of each side, we may say that in our judgment there was testimony in behalf of the plaintiff which made out a prima facie case on all the material points. On the other hand, there was evidence on the part of the defendant that tended to show that the plaintiff had no cause of action. If the evidence for the plaintiff was true, the hand-truck was not a reasonably safe appliance with which to move the safe, and the plaintiff had no notice or knowledge that the box containing the safe was heavy or that there was any danger incident to handling the box. It was a question for the jury to decide whether he knew or should have known that the box was heavy. It was a question for the jury also to determine from the evidence whether the hand-truck used was a reasonably safe appliance with which to handle the box containing the safe, or whether the defendant furnished rollers of proper size and length to use in moving said box, or whether rollers were reasonably safe appliances with *143which to handle said box, etc. There was evidence pro and con on these points. The defendant had the waybill showing that said box weighed 1,160 pounds, and did not communicate this fact to the plaintiff.
The evidence was conflicting on the material points, and the charge of the court was full and-fair, and covered all the questions involved. It was for the jury, and not for the court, to pass on the evidence of the witnesses and to determine the ultimate facts of this case.
9. A judgment of nonsuit or a motion for an instructed verdict should not be granted where reasonable minds may draw different conclusions from the evidence before the jury, especially where the evidence is conflicting on the material points: Stager v. Troy Laundry Co., 41 Or. 141 (68 Pac. 405); Sullivan v. Wakefield, 59 Or. 401 (117 Pac. 311); Nutt v. Isensee, 60 Or. 395 (119 Pac. 722).
10. In determining whether a nonsuit should have been granted, this court must review the evidence produced by the plaintiff in the most favorable light to the plaintiff: Dillard v. Olalla Mining Co., 52 Or. 126 (94 Pac. 966, 96 Pac. 678). There was evidence in this case sufficient to be submitted to the jury. We find that the motions for a nonsuit and for an instructed verdict were properly overruled.
The record discloses no error, and the judgment of the court below is affirmed. Affirmed.
Mr. Chief Justice McBride, Mr. Justice Moore and Mr. Justice Burnett concur.
