A QUEER QUESTION.

The English courts have been called on to
 decide the interesting and curious question,
 Are wedding presents the property of the
 wife or the husband Mme Mercier sued
 Mrs. Williams for bill of goods amounting
 to five thousand dollars, supplied before the
 latter's marriage. She recovered judgment
 and levied on Mrs Williams jewels. They
 were wedding presents and were claimed by the husband as his property The case was tried before Lord Chief Justice Coleridge and n jury. He instructed the jury that in law the articles belonged to the husband, and that accordingly the suit against the wife could not be maintained. An appeal was taken to the Divisional court, The judges were equally divided. Then the Court of Appeal was called upon to decide the question. It held that both the wedding presents and other valuables owned by Mrs. Williams before her marriage became the property of her husband, but that their ownership had been transferred to her by an ante-nuptial agree ment. This agreement provided that all property of the wife should be assigned to trustees for named purposes "except jew els, trinkets, ornaments, of the person and articles of the like nature'' These, it was declared in the agreement should belong to her for her separate use The case was then carried to the House of Lords, which sustains the decision of the Court of Appeals that the jewels were the separate property of Mrs. Williams under the ante-nuptia1 agreement They wero therefore liable to seizure by her creditors

 M A., is a book which deserves the attention ot thinking men. It is volume of 45( pages, containing the substance of essays or the social problems of our time which ap peared in the Contemporary Review and the British Quarterly, with the addition of much new matter. It is a pretty comprehensive view of the field, including view of Las salle and the German socialists, the followers of Karl Marx, the Christian Socialists, Rus sian Nihilism, the general social question in England and thorough review of the prog ress and poverty theory of Henry George. Mir. Georges theories are declared to be falla- cies, and are met by sound argument The book treats of an important subject and in a masterly manner.

 Mir. Isaac Bassett Choate treats of philo- logical studies in book called 'Elements of English Speech" The author says the book is not intended for text books, nor is it in tended to supplement text book He hopes that it may encourage readers to study our language critically in it's forms and ele- ments, and that it may disclose hitherto un- noticed beauty and excellence in our mother tongue. The special subjects treated in the volume, ''after free manner" the author explains, are F'Demonstratives," "Preposi- tions, ''Neuns," ''Verbs," t'Mood," 'rPro- nunciation," etc. The little book solves some of the problems to the English Ian guage, and in its style, which is comprehen- sive and direct, it does it's author much cred it.

THE CONVENTIONS.

The Republican conventions last evening did their work we'll. The town convention renominated the old selectmen and the board of relief, and made up an excellent ticket throughout. The city convention nominated MT. Henry F. Peck for Mayor. Nr. Peck needs no introduction to the citizens of New Haven. He is prominently connected with the business interests of the city, and is a member of the board of education, and is thoroughly acquainted with New Haven's present condition and her needs. He is conspicuous for his in- tegrity and good sense, and would make first-elass mayor. The rest of the city ticket is of good material, and voters who have the interests of the city at heart can vote the whole ticket with approving judgment and a clear conscience.

FAIR CYNTHIA,s mIsHAP.
Confusion Following the Introduction
 of a New Style in BustIes.

[C1ara Belle in Cincinnati Enquirer
 My friend Cynthia is a good young woman. ] and weighs 200 pounds. She is just as fash l ionable as they make lem. When bustles are 1 prescribed for inward application to the 1 skirts of new dresses Cynthia may dislike 1 the dose, ,pbut she takes it all the same Now it is an exasperating fact that the average hustle is like flea for hopping out of the place you put it in. You hitch the thing on
 ever so carefully, and guy it by means of all
 it's strings to such parts of your anatomy as
 seem reliable: you study the side views by ! means of your mirror, and satisfy yourself that the distortive horrors of the style are at
 least in accord with the ridiculous design:
 and then you go out for promenade, joyous
 and blithesome for while in the belief that
 you are as strictly correct as a fashion-plate.
 By and by you pass reflective window, and give side glance at your shadow. Tare and zounds! You mentally use that or some other generation which does not come under the category of outright American swearing but which serves the feminine purpose of profanity. The reason why is that the hustle has slid round to one side, making you look like dot-and-go-one cripple or the doomed possessor of tumor. You readjustit furtive- ly and know no further peace, so keen is your apprehension. But it is in sitting down that disaster to the hustle is commonly preeipita- ted. The ball toilet of the season is very intricate in it's rear mechanism. The shape of the draped protuheranee bears no relation to the person within, and the falsity of con- tour must be shored up with exceeding care and skill, in the order to form the structure intended by the dressmaker The beau may brush aside the tails of his coat to save them fromwrink king under his weight when he takes a seat, but the belle cannot do otherwise than | squat squarely on so much of her hustle as | hangs low enough to interpose itself Well, Cynthia conceived that an inflated rubber | bustls would obviate most of the difficulty. | It would bear squeezing for any length of time, and then spring back to it's normal when the pressure was removed. | She had one made, and felt repaid for the | trouble and expense when it was attached to her the other evening, to give outline to gorgeous dress which she was to wear to She swept into the parlor with that breadth ofstyle which only fat woman can command, accepted the greeting of the hostess with ceremonious politeness, and crossed the room to sofa The momentary 'ilence of general inspection hushed all -,

sounds. All eyes were on big Cynthia. She settled down on the sofa in solid, solemn, slow kind of way. Then came a loud, sharp pop. The rubber hustle had burst! You have probably never failed to laugh when the clown in the pantomime sits on and explodes the baby. How, then, can you blame that assemblage for going into convulsions? Poer Cynthia, like half collapsed balloon, tioated draggingly out of the salon.

EDITORIAL NOTES,

Chicago man named Virtue is defendant in q suit for divorce in which he is charged with bigamy, adultery and drunkenness.
 The Rev. Dr. Talmage says what he thinks. In his Thanksgiving sermon he declared that ''the best thing congress could do with the $1O0, 900 surplus, which the Republi- cans have not stolen and the Democrats have not yet had chance to steal, would be to apply it in some way to the establishment of steamship lines to South America and to aEedging out their harbors so as to render them accessible to commerce.
