a tool in the city superintendent who puts

schools for dozen years, to make way for
special favorites from abroad. Davenport
schools that have been the honest pride OF
the State for years, under such management,
are becoming byword to outsiders and are
held in contempt BY the citizens of Daven.

Court in Cincinnati, that a wife has a vested
right in her hus baui's society or companion.
ship, and can main tain an action for dana
ges for the loss thereof 1t appears that the
husband had an adopted daughter who was
married, and grad aally be sbsensed himself
from his own house until, at last, be resided
permanently with those people. The wife
brought suit against her husband and the
other two for damages for the loss of his
company and society. Upon dumurrer the
court ruled that the action would not lie
against her husband, bu: her right of action
against those who drew away and hsrbored
her husband was indisputable. Persons will.
therefore, take notice that if they harbor tru,
ants they are liable to the wives for damages
There are some in Rock Island, who will
perhaps be liable for damages under this
decision, and our advice to them is, to send
these wandering husbands home at q sea
