wIFEs INTEREST IN REALTY

Editor Deseret News.
Does the right Of dover exist IN
Utah9 And can man only give
legal deed by having his legal wife sign
suppose this legal wife IS In Germany
Norway or Denmark, or any other
country. must the signature OF the legal
wife be attached to make this docu-
ment legall go.
Surprising she has been absent forty
wears, or more, does THIS make any
difference? II any deeds have been maze
In the mast are they useless without
this legal wife's SIGNATURE
The foregoing questions have been
asked by a correspondent In northern
Utah. We make the following brlef
reply;
The Revised Statutes OF Utah pro-
vide in section 1882 that There SHAH
be neither dover nor curtesy In this
State" That answers the first part OF
the first question above. But the second
part requires a different answer A
husband cannot convey a piece OF teal
estate IN Utah. in manner considered
legal and valid, without his wife's Sig
nature to the deed. That Is because
the wife has an interest Of one third In
the husbands real estate This Is pro-
yided in section 1896 as follows;
"One-third In value Of all the legal
or equitable estates In real property
possessed by the husband at any time
during the marriage, and to which the
wife had made no REIMBURSEMENT OF
her rights. shall be set apart as ner
property In fee simple II she survive
him; provided, that the wife shall not
be entitled 10 any interest under the
provisions OF this section In any sueh
estate OF which the husband has made
n conveyance when The wife, at the
time OF the conveyance, Is not or new
or has been a resident OF the Territory
or state of Utah"
That answers the third question as
wen as the latter part Of the first. AS
to the second, If the wife Is absent
from the state, she may execute pow
err of attorney which, when certified and
recorded, viii be valid and, If neces-
sary. may be sent by telegraph--See
sections 1871, 26sS.
There was a time. extending over
number OF years when there was no
right Of dover in the Territory OF Utah.
But the Edmunds-Tucker act OF March
8, 1887, established II by providing that,
"A widow shall be endowed Of third
part OF all lands whereof her husband
was seized OF an estate OF inheritance
al any time during the marriage unless
she shall have lawfully released her
right thereto" See. IL.
This prevailed from the date given
until Utah became State and the
laws OF Utah which we have quoted
came into force The reason why the
dover right was abrogated under the
laws OF the Territory. was TO secure
the power TO husband having more
wives than one, In the power to deal
equltabiy with each Of them In the dis
position Of his real property
The signature Of the wife with the
husbands to deed Of conveyance, Is
legal REIMBURSEMENT Of her one-third
interest in the piece of property thus
conveyed. We think these remarks will
cover the ground Of inquiry OF our cor
respondent. but they may be Of benefit
to others and this IL why We give then
this publicity.

POLAR EXPLORATIONS.

There Is at present unusual activity
IN polar explorations. no less than six
nations being represented by expedi-

BY all odds the most appalling fea-
ture OF the news of the day is the
record Of lynching. Every day brings
new horrors, and on some days from
several states at once come reports Of
mob violence. These cases are multi
plying In number and deepening IN
atroclty, until 1t seems as II kind Of
craze for blood had infected whole
populations. The victims are invaria-
bly, negroes, and the offenses OF which
they are charged and of which they
may or may not be guilty, for the
mobs make no pretense Of Judicial in
quiry, are almost invariably against
women.

Industrial work carried on By the
Boys Brigade, AZ its King street head

gratifying pace That the experiment
has proved entirely successful since

OF the Young Mems Christian Associ-
alton Al the same time officers to
serve for the ensuing year we're elect
ed. Practically the entire board was
again chosen to al their respective
positions for another year.
President Richards report enlarged
az length upon the work Of the Bri-
gads. The original scheme OF meet
ing once q week had become relegated
TO the past and meetings are now be-
ing held daily. Il was stated that the
boys take very kindly to the Industrial
work and club life as afforded at the
Brigade headquarters
In regard TO military matters, the
Brigade has made rapid and substan-
tial progress. The discipline and pre-
cision maintained In the companies
under the efficient direction Of Major
2. J. Wilson was pronounced striking
ly successful The companies are stead
lily growing In membership as well as
In the employment and knowledge OF
the manual Of arms and field tactics
The announcement was also made
that the Brigade has the option upon
five acres OF land controlled by the
Bishop estate at Kewalo The land
has been rendered to the Boys Bri-
gade for term OF years rent free,
with the stipulation that 1t be placed
In proper condition for field work and
athletic contests. The plan Is being
favorably considered. although no &C
ton was taken In the matter at the
meeting yesterday evening.
In the matter OF entertainments. the
Brigade Is promised some very inter-
esting events for the coming season.
AS in the past, some OF the best talent
obtainable will be employed. Stereop-
ticon lectures and short practical
talks upon scientific subjects will be
given from time TO time Those in
charge hope by this means to impart
much that is instructive and useful.
In the industrial department great
progress has been made by the lads
