AN IMPORTANT CASE.
Testing the. Power Of an Ecclesiastio I'd
Annul n Christian Marriage.

Anuul Cnrlstlnn mbrrlhtes
MONTREAL, Feb. 2s.-Last December Eliza
beth Globensky, daughter OF q rich property
owner, was married to her cousin, Daniel
Wilson, by Rev. DR.. Doudet Presbyter-
ian preacher The panies were Catholics,
but Of full age, and the registrar issued
them license A Catholic priest refused
TO marry them, as the parents Of
the lady, who is an heiress, objected to the
union. Mgr Fabre, Roman Catholic Bishop
OF Montreal, was appealed TO by the mother
OF the bride to declare the marriage null
and void, which his lordship did, and the
Archbishop of Quebec confirmed the Bish-
ops action. The case has occupied the at
tention OF the Superior Court here
for some days. Counsel for the mother
laid down as au indisputable propo-
not abandoned their religion, they were
subject TO laws TO which the State had eH4
tended, as a protection, its sanction. Couni
sci for the husband maintained that while
England had conceded religious liberty to
the Roman Catholics Of Canada, Ii could not
be inferred therefrom that IL had divested
the Protestant Church of her right to cele-
brate the marriages of all Christians; also
that the DEGREES of the Council of Trent
on which the Bishops had based their de-
clsions, were neverpromulgated iu Canada.
Moreover the Judgment rendered by the
Privy Council in London in the celebrated
Guibord case clearly showed the absolute
nullity OF ecclesiastical DEGREES of that
kind. The case was taken Under considera-
tion by the court, and the Judgment Is
eagerly looked for TO settle the point that
has been raised for the first time.

elephant belonging TO the ttenagerie Of
John B. Doris, the Snowman, became un-

other animals by her roaring until
there was terrible dscord OF noise, ran
headlong against the side Of the building
bursting out several panels, and through
the opening she made her escape. The infur.
ated beast did considerable destruction
about the Exposition grounds, where
the winter quarters OF the show
are located, and forced an
opening through the high fence surround
Ing the grounds in the same manner that
she had escaped from the building. The
next thing she came in contact with was q
barbed- wire fence, on which she lnscerated
her trunk and breast in a frigbtful manner
trying to force her back to the grounds,
sunk spear in her ear It. broke of,

over the barbed wire, tearing several
long, ugly gashes in doing so After reach
ing Fall creek, mile distant, she gave vent
TO her rage by demolishing small bridge
over the stream. She was prevented from
coming toward the city, and after two
hours of terrifying conduct she voluntarily
returned to her quarters again, forcing her
way through the fence and bursting out
another opening in the building where she
quietly submitted to being chained.
