Az ANCIENT RIGHT AssAIIED.

1t has not been claimed, we believe,
| his wife's pockets, Il she happens to
have any, but it has been generally
| understood, at least by wives, that a
wife has right to go through her hus-
bands pockets. The assumption has
been that man is such a SLY dog and
a woman so comparatively defenceless
against his slyness that she is warrant
ed in being just a little sly herself
when she wants to find out whether he
has any money, or any "love" which is
not entirely legitimate. Magistrate
Crane Of New York has given this as
sumption rude shock. mo woman
has right to go through her hus-
bands pockets any more than a hus-
wife's pockets" said Magistrate Crane
in deciding a case in which Selma
Reichert was accused by her husband
of having stolen s57 and private papers
from his coat in his store. She admit
ted taking the papers, but denied TAX
ing the money. II never heard of such
thing as woman being arrested for
going through her husbands pockets,
A woman has every right to do such
thing" Il don't agree with YOU said
Magistrate Crane. mo woman has
that right"
Is 1t possible that sneaking, and even
theft, are as bad in a woman as in
man? Magistrate Crane seems to think
they are. 1t would be interesting to
have the opinion of a high court on this
question.

have partaken are dead, and have been
abandoned by their owners.
The Mooches flay the dead animals
and sell their hides Pursued, these
honest creatures make at full speed for
the jungle. If they reach it all hope of
capturing them is at an end, but even
, when they discover that they must be
overtaken before they reach it they by
! no means lose heart, and are measure
bly, sure of escaping, especially If, as is
often the case in India, the surface Is
burned over and the trees and bushes
that have not been consumed are
charred and blackened and bereft Of
their foliage, and many perhaps re-
duced to little more than blackened
stumps by the fire by which the fields
are annually burned over. If hard
pressed in such a country as this they
/ cease to fly, and Immediately disappear,
For long time the English troops
which policed the districts where they
made their raids were completely nom
| plussed; again and again, on the very
point Of being captured, the Mooches
escaped by miraculously vanishing, and
| the officers as we'll as soldiers became
superstitious. With the power Of
maintaining fixed, immovable postures,
in which their race seems to excel, these
Indians, grasping in their hands such
blaclSened branches as they pick up in
their fight, can instantly assume and
retain for long time an almost perfect
mimicry of the groups Of blackened
stumps and half-burned, stunted trees

question.

That England is learning something
Gated by the radical changes that have
been made In the conditions of shoot
ing for the various prizes at the great
annual rifle meeting at Bisley, in Eng
land. In the old days, the one pre-
eminent virtue was accuracy, and to
the attainment of this nearly all other
considerations were sacrificed. Under
the new rules, the competitors are sub
jected to various tests for rapidity as
well as accuracy Of fire, smartness in
taking cover, handling the magazine
rifle, firing at short range, and steadi-
ness while marching. In the Com
mander- in Chiefs cup, for instance,
shot for by teams of regulars, militia,
yeomanry, or volunteers, the man rises
from cover, aims, pulls the trigger, and
gets back under cover-all within four
seconds, and the range Is only $50
yards. The Belgian cup at 900 yards Is
for rapid magazine fire; and in other
contests the time for shot is strictly
limited. Even in the Kings prize, the
500 and 900 ranges are increased to 600
and 800 respectively, the standing posi-
ton, so suddenly introduced, has been
as suddenly abandoned and even at
200 yards the prone position may be
used instead of the kneeling one. And
in this case sighting devices are al
lowed. In every way the conditions, as
nearly as possible, have been made to
resemble those likely to prevail in &C.
tual warfare, and the difficulties of
the marksmen have been correspond
ingly increased.
