chancery, says the Manchester Examiner. The house was a leasehold held by the! trustees of the marriage settlement, either | to be sold with the consent of the husband and wife, or otherwise to be held for the: wife for life for her sole and separate use, | jwithout power of anticipation of rent or proceeds arising therefiom. The parties: ,had disagreed, proceedings in the di

ivorce ‘court were pending, and meanwhile the husband was in the habit of entering the, house when he liked, taking away plate and |things with him when he left, whereupon ithe wife asked for an injunction restraining . him. It was contended for the husband; ;that to grant the application would be to ‘allow a_wife to say, not that she would not live with her husband, but that he should not live with her, which was equivalent to investing her with the power of decreeing | ‘a separation when she liked, and t'ius! ousting the jurisdiction of the divorce court, A husband cannot drive a wife out Of doors, it was held, and in the same way a wife could not drive her husband | jinto the street. This, however, was a! ‘proposition Mr. Justice Chitty was not pre-

‘pared to accept in either clause. But that was not the point on which he decided.

| The court, he said, had only to act upon

‘the decisions, and those had established that the wife was, under circumstances like the | present, entitled to an injunction, on the

‘ground that her separate property was en-

|titled to protection not only against the husband’s creditors, but only against his personal appropriation. In this respect the

law treated the husbend as a stranger. li the husband believes himself wronged, he is not helpless. Vice-Chancellor Wigram

so far back as the year 1840 pointed out that the husband was not without his remedy in the ecclesiastical court, and Mr.

Justice Chitty observed that in the present instance the husband could, if he thought fit, take proceedings in the proper division of the high court for restitution of conjugal rights, having, as a preliminary measure,

provided a residence out of his own means in which to receive his wife.

HIS EXCELLENCY PIE A-POT AND ENTERTAIN THE REGINANS.

TRIBE

On Monday afternoon Pie-a-Pot and his tribe who are now encamped west of Regina, and are on their way to reserve at Fort Qu’Appelle, visited the town of Regina, and treated the peaceful Reginians to a real Indian pow-wow. They marshall. ed in front of Messrs. Mowat, Black, and Dawson’s stores on Broad street, and the performers took possession of the platform, while those who were not directly interest- ed looked on as if the entertainment was only an every day occurrence to them. His Excellency Pie-a-Pot occupied the seat of henor, a chair near Mr. Dawson’s door, where he sat fanning himself with a few feathers and holding an umbrella to pre- vent Old Sol from making any further in- roads on his complexion. Indeed, he louked quite dignified, but was not near sv tastefully rigged out as some of the braves Others of the tribe who were present were either mounted or standing, or sitting in a semi-circle around the participants in the entertainment. The people crowded as close as possible to get a good look, and it was very amusing to witness every now and then some one shove out of the crowd, driven so by the intense heat or the stifling perfume which proved too strong for their olfactory nerves

To attempt to give a description of the performers and their costumes would be a futile effort. Some were bare to the wais', having their bodies painted with some kind of a light yellow. Others were rigged with feathers, paints, pieces of cloth, and every- thing conceivable to make them appear ridi- culous. An idea of what they resembled can be gleancd by comparing them with the ragtagbubiailionians, who used to appear in our easiern towns and cities on celebration days. Th» performance was rather a mon- otonons affair. At the edge of the platform sat #ix braves aroyn’! the tom-tom, which they beat with mufiled sticks, The tom- tom is similar toa drum, but is ovly abou:

he declares that he will positively remain in Boston, where he is now gaoled, The humor of the situation is this: According to Jaw, the captain who brought Ah Chung into the United States can be arrested and imprisoned if he leaves him there. So long as he remains in port, though, with the intention of getting Ab Chung away, he isafree man. Thus, if the captain remains at Boston, the Boston police cannot lay their hands upon him. But if a Bo&ton policeman finds im upon the ocean he may immediately seize him. he captain hes his choice between staying at Boston and not being arrested, and going to sea and escaping arrest. LS A

Luther left three sons, and it has often been said that their male line was extin- guished early in the last century. But the report is confirmed that there at Cloister Allen-dorff, on the Werr, in Weiningen, two brothers, Heinrich and Carl Luther, who can prove descent from the great: re-

‘former by a genealogical tree, which has

been deposited for safety with a Leipsic insurance company. Heinrich, the elder, isa journeyman carpenter, while Carl is studying theology. Their mother is said to have been the daughter of a hich official at Berlin. Their father was woikiny at his trade as a mason in the capital, when the girl fell madly in love with him, as much through enthusiastic admiration of all that related to Martin Luther as from apprecia- tion of the good-looking young journey- man. But the marriage ended unhappily, for the mason’s wife was disinherited by and is said to have died in misery.

There is something beyond calculation in the speed of steamboats. Two boats may be built simultaneous from the same model with every effort to make them precise duplicates »s to shape and machinery, and yet one will prove faster than the other. Why this isno man can tell. The Mary Powell has for fifteen years been the swiftest boat on the Hudson river. During all that time she never has been beaten. Time and again an exact counterpart has been built, with everything copied as nearly as the best machines and facilities could do it, but none of these has turned out as good as the original. Experience has been the same with yachtsmen. They order copies of the swiftest craft, or combine the supposed good points of several, and nine times out of ten are disappointed in the result,

If there are idlers in Boston, they are not women, writes a New Orleans Times correspondent. The occupations open to women here include everything there is, from the arts and professions to the indus- tries. In stores, shops, libraries, resteur- ants, offices, you are served by women. In the post-office the reyistry of letters is superintenced by a women, with assistants. In the Atheneum end public library women alinost exclns'vely attend. In our best ree- taurants men serve as wait)rs, whole a daintily dressed woman sits behind the desk, with yases of cut flowers, and atiends to the cach acconni. It used to be considered a little pronoureed for a lady without escort to go to the ledies res.atirant at the Parker house; but now the presence of a refined and dainty woman at the cashier’s desk has quite done away with that feeling. ee ee
