BELONG TO HUSBAND.
A Wife's Earnings Are Absolutely
in His Control.
Decision by New York supreme Court
Restricts the Rights OF Mar
ried Woman Case ON
Which Decision IL Based.

The right of a married woman to re-
cover for diminished earning capacity
has been passed upon by the appellate
term OF the New York supreme court
in decision reversing a Judgment OBJ
tanned by Mrs. Pauline Klapper for
SAP against the Metropolitan Street
Railway company for personal in
iuries.
Mrs. Klapper, with her baby board
ed car July last for the purpose Of
visiting her husband who was then
confined in the Mount Sinai hospital
As she was alighting the conductor
gave the signal and the car started,
throwing her TO the ground. Although
she fell on her back she held her baby
tightly in her arms and saved it from
serious injury.
The evidence showed that Mrs. Klap-
per's spine was severely injured and
that since she has not been able 10 do
any work. She was the only support
of the family at the time, because Of
her husbands illness. and she was
earning from IS to $40 weekly washing
and scrubbing. At the time Of the trial
she was permitted to prove that she
had lost her earnings for six weeks.
1t was on this point alone that the
railroad company appealed the case,
raising the contention that as a mat
ter Of law her earnings belonged to
her husband and could not be recov-
cred by herself, and therefore an err
ror had been committed in allowing
her to testify on this point
The appellate term directs a new
trial of the ease, holding that il was an
error to have permitted Mrs. Klapper
to have testified to what She earned.
Under common law" says Judge
Leventritt, "the husband was abso-
lutely entitled to the earnings Of the
his wife, unless the services and earn
ings were rendered or received ex-
pressly on hsr sole and separate ac-
count
Quoting from another decision, the
court says: "Presumptively. damages
for diminishing the earning capacity
of a married woman belongs to her
husband, and when she seeks TO re-
cover such damages the complaint
must contain an allegation that for
some reason she is entitled to the
fruits of her own labor"

THE NEW wARsHIPs.
In Order 10 Increase battery Power
and Steaming Radii viii Not Re
Given Excessive speed Powers.

In order to increase their battery
power and steaming radii, the project
ed battleships and armored cruisers
win not be given excessive speed pow
ers. says the Washington correspon-
dent of the New York Herald.
This has been determined by the
board of construction. The battle
ships will be about the size of the
Pennsylvania class-that is $4,000 tons
and the armored cruisers win be
about $4,000 tons. the displacement of
the California class. The battleships
will have speed Of 10 knots, while the
armored cruiser viii not have more
than % knots and perhaps only 81. \
suggestion was made that they be de-
signed for % knots, but tie conclusion
was reached that the space for the ma
chinery TO produce this speed could
better be utilized in storing coal and
adding to the battery strength.
The board has not yet determined
upon the battery arrangement of the
ships. Plans have been prepared by
each member, some of which embody
the superposed turret principle. Some
of the members believe enough battle
ships equipped with superposed tur-
rets have been constructed, and they
will urge a return to the quadrilateral
arrangement.
The Union iron works has asked for
an extension of time on the torpedo
boat Perry, which on her recent trial
trip made only 2s.25 knots, three-quar-
tiers of a knot below her designed
speed. The additional time desired by
This company is for the purpose of re-
modelling the stern.

MOSQUITOES ANNOY PARISIANS
Academy of Medicine Discusses Meth
DDS for Destroying the
Pest

Mosquitoes Of Paris during the sum
mer and autumn, though not such ~
rants as their American brethren,
have been getting more and more
troublesome and have now earned the
distinction of attracting the notice Of
the Academy of Medicine, Of Paris.
At its last meeting DR.. De Hove
suggested that they might be the
means of propagating disease, and
proposed that all stagnant sheets of
water in the city should be either
converted into running water or Gov
cred over with a slight layer of pc
troleum TO prevent their breeding.
Drs. Laveran. Chatus and Proust
backed up DIR. De Hove's proposal, but
said mosquitoes are harmless from
the point of view of disease, though
undoubtedly a great nuisance.

 MT. Hombach shook his bushy hair impatiently. "I cannot lend tools! No, no! The woman has no sense! My tools are my friends! Who ever heard of lending a friend?"

"couldn't you take the saw upstairs yourself and do the work for Miss Elizabeth-for the sake of the saw, you know?" Mir.

 Sure enough. Randolph" he said in an altered tone, his cumulative spirit all gone. How absurd of me not to have thought of that it first. Yes, yes, of course, that is the only sensi- ble thing to do, and it will take only few moments"
 To himself he continued as he went upstairs with his tool box: That lit- tie Randolph of mine is no common boy. Whoever he is, there is the blood of a statesman in his veins. He'll make his mark in the world"
 Miss Elizabeth Bradley did not ask for the loan of any more tools. As the weeks passed Randolph noticed that his father went upstairs to chat with her now and then, to the great disappointment of the men who called every evening to discuss poli- tics, and to the relief of the neigh bors who wanted to sleep.

THE sign in the window, "Furni-

 While Mir. Hombach's shop on the ground floor was full of odds and ends suggesting his occupation. books, newspapers and certain of the magazines indicated that the man of the glue-pot and hammer was a man of some mental culture.
 Evidently the magnetic influence of Mir. Hombach was considerable; many were the friends and admirers that called to see him in order to hear his views" on the questions of the day.
 In summer time the talk was car ried on at the front door steps; but during the cold weather the little meetings took place in the work room, where Mir. Hombach's ringing voice not unfrequently kept the ten ants of the house, as well as those in the houses adjoining, awake until midnight.
 Of course Mir. Hombach was nui- sance, but his neighbors bore with him on account of the little boy whom he had adopted. Max must have good heart" they reasoned. ito take in strange child and be so kind to him."

 At present Mir. Hombach was at work mending a broken table. The fierce frown on his forehead indicat- ed that he was also occupied with some mental problem. When, pres ently, he heard the sound of light footsteps in the hall, the frown dis appeared.
 The boy was coming home from school. He stopped few moments to talk to a woman in the entry; then he came into the workroom with his customary: Hello, father" add ing: Miss Elizabeth Bradley wants the loan of your chisel. May take it up to her now?"
 MT. Hombach started as if he had been struck, his countenance chang ing with the quickness of lightning Although generous to fault, he had drawn the line of generosity and neighborliness at his tool box. the contents of which were almost sacred in his eyes.
