THE WIFE, THE SLAP AND HUBBY'S POCKETS.
OF course, the judge who declared the other day
that justified in sapping his wife if she goes
through his pockets speaking facetously and with
cut any idea that his remark would be literally
strued Whether would be justified in slapping
his wife under any circumstances whatever is point
upon which it would be extremely difficult not to say
dangerous, to express opinion. Old Blackstone
thought it evidence of the Observation-Disclosures the
sommon law that it prohibited the husband from beat
ing his wife with stick thicker than his thumb,
that in his day slap could evidently have been admin
istered without any apprehension to the
suences from a legal point of view, whenever the man
felt like it. Needless to say however, things diff
ferent now, and in these days of womens rights and
divorce it is questionable whether it would be safe
slap matter how might be the evaporation
Another judge not long ago indicated the proper
course for the husband to when the lady of the
house is threatening to drive him distraction with
her wordy assaults He mustn't slap her. He mustn't
toll her to shut up her mouth" anything like that
He mustn't enter protest when innocently
meant comment of his is being distorted out of all
resemblance to it's original phrasng and intended sig
Rhcance No, indeed, for that would only be pouring
ell upon the fire and adding fuel to the flame What
he must do under these trying conditions is to refrain
from saying word. 1t may not be easy, but it is
necessary to exercise strict self-contro allow
the most injurious Misrepresentation pass without
protest If this is done the storm will gradually blow
itself out and pretty the clouds will have rolled
away and the will again be shining Should the
be consttutionaly incapable of these tactics then
all that is left him is fight.
But if the husband may not slap the wife of his
bosom when she is applying to him all the injurious
epthets fertile and entirely untrammeled fancy
suggest how absurd it would be hold that he might
properly do when she has been guilty of no more
serious oense than that of going through his pockets?
Why, everyone whose experience is at all extended
knows that this is of the wifes inaenable and
memorial privileges. Whose pockets should she go
through if not her husbands, and what pockets
husbands pockets-for anyhow if not to be gone
through? If they should happen to contain anything
which it is not intended for the wife to see the man
has only himself to blame for that; he should have
been more careful; while for the rest, isn't it
much hers his anyhow?
But Judge will have his joke Philadelphia In
suirer.

Wagner would be an ideal man for
the utility roll on this team as he can
play any of the infield positions. He
can hit hard and for a big man is fast

They are fine fielders, good throw
ers and are among the leaders as
batters and base runners.
Magee is picked as utility outfield-
or. not alone because he is a fine out
fielder, good thrower and fast on the
bases, but because he is a right-h
hitter and in case loft-hand pitcher
was troublesome for some of the left
hand batsmen. he and Wagner could
be used, making the team strong
against left-handers as well as against
right handlers.
This team I have picked would be
strong in fielding in every position;
strong is batting and the strongest

in either league.

| Hugh Jennings. manager Of the De-
trolt baseball team and recognized ev-
crywhere az an authority on the ma
| tional pastime, has selected the above
for the Detroit Times, as the best base
| ball team that could be picked from
the stars of the National and American
Leagues. Following are some of the
reasons given by Jennings for his pref
erences:
In the catching department there
can be no question as to the worth
of the three men named. Bresnahan
combines three qualifications seldom
found IN a catcher. He possesses cour-
| age, speed and brains and being a
good backstop as well as a good
thrower would be n valuable man for
any team i'm the country. He is a
frst-class hitter and a fine base run
ner
Doom has all of these qualities eX-
cept speed. He is more gingery, is a
good thrower, works his pitchers with
good judgment and is a wonderful
Judge of foul flies.
Stanage is the right build for a
catcher He has good arm, works
his pitchers intelligently and is not
afraid to throw the ball to any base
TO catch runners mapping. He is a good
hitter but not fast on the bases. He
can catch every day.
In Walsh ! think l have selected
one of the best, If not the best pitch
err i'm the country. He is master OF
the spit ball and has good control
and speed. Being a big, strong man,
he can work every third day. He
fields his position in flrst-class style
| and has a lot of courage.
Mathewson is a grand pitcher. He
is master of the situation and uses
excellent judgment i'm figuring the
weakness of the batsmen who face
him. His drop ball is his strongest
point, although he has good speed and
fair slow ball.
Johnson possesses more speed than
any other of the pitchers have Sc
lected. He has a good curve ball, but
his slow ball Is just fair He has
good control and with the support
behind the bat would prove to be a
wonder.
Bender is pitcher with good speed,
q fine curve and excellent control. He
fields his position in grand style
RuclScr is the only left-hander have
selected for the staff. He has fine con-
troll for a left-hander. plenty of speed
and fine drop ball.
Chase on first, would have no rival
for the position. He is a sensational
fielder. covers an immense amount
of ground, is a good thrower. a fine
hitter, and fast on the bases.
Collins was given the preference
over Latoie on account Of his speed.
He covers more ground than Jajoie.

as both seasons open oct. 10 and con-
