show that the deceased he'd been o
superior wifc was offered, and, prcsum.
ably influenced by this, the jury gave
the complainant verdict for $1,000.
Tho defendant objected to proof as to
tho character OF the wife, and carried
tho issue to the highest court OF the
State. That tribunal holds thot such
evidence was perfectly proper as Q
means OF estimating the damage suf-
fered by the husband. "If tho charac-

court, "be such that her death will
cause but little sorrow, suffering and
mcntal anguish to tho husband, then
tho fair and just proportion Of the
damages to be awarded by the jury will
be measured accordingly" "But II, on
the contrary" the court odds, "the wife

this case proved Mrs. Mcconnell TO be-

"Crackyl dye hear that?" said the
boy to companion standing near by.
"No; what?"
"Why, that lady in sealskin said
Thank ys' to the likes o. me-"
Amused at tho conversation, which
she could not help overhcaring, the
lady turned round and said to the boy:
'1t al ways pays to be polite. my boy;

Years passed away, and last Deccn1-

courtesy from clerk In Boston, which
