Legal Protection for Women.
rom the London Chronicle


The arrest of a married man for the
taxes on his wife's property, whereas he
is not allowed by law to touch a shill-
ing of hers-and such is now the plight
Of Mr.. Wiks. the husband of Dr. Wilks-
is an almost groteSque incident of the
attempts at legislation between unequals.
Coventry Patmore wrote Between I'M
equals sweet is equal love" but law
between them is not sweet at all. DIR.
Wilks refuses. being unrepresented. to he
taxed. and her husband. Mr.. Wilks.
approves of her refusal. He is therefore
cast into prison, because he is liable
for his wife's Just" debts. 1t is a case
of collision between the much needed
legislation of the eighties for the pro-
lection of married women and the pres
ent movement for fun feminine citizen
ship: and somehow the man is bruised by
the impact.
more years ago, the property of married
women was more logically but most un-
justly, at the mercy of the husbands. who
were theoretically liza ole for their debts
1t was a commonplace OF the life. OF
that the husbands who had
or fitfully deserted thepl.
should suddenly appear and sweep away
the earnings, the furniture, the coppers
and ironing tables. and the whole lveli-
hood of the wife and children. To many
an unhappy industrious woman this
happened not once. but many times, al
and incalculable intervals. AT
last the law arose with reform. And
by the irony of things. Mr. Wilks,
stanchly backing DIR. Wilks, has 10

The Yellow Peril.
the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
Mr. Schwab informs his countrymen
through a Berlin interview that the Chi
nese peril is industrial. not military.
Those who have refused to be affrighted
by the military peril will preserve their
equanimity over the Industrial peril. IL
is true that China has made some freak
exports of pig iron to the Pacific coast.
but the opening of the Panama canal
will remedy that. Such imports of Chi
nese iron prove the high cost OF trans
continental freight traffic rather than
the cheapness or excellence of Chinese
iron They We're hardly justified eco
nomically as the matter stood, and they
will not be justified at all when the
freights are halved.
Besides, China exported that iron only
because of its lack of home demand at
a time of unusual prostration by civil
war and extreme backwardness OF in
dustrial development. In proportion as
China awakens 1t will arouse a home
market needing home supplies. With an
extremely dense population. China has
hardly any railways. and the need is SO
pressing that most OF the loans now
projected are for railway construction
When China is building railways on any
scale commensurate with it's needs il will
not export the iron which might be made
into rails, but is more likely to import
products of iron and steel from other
countries, and from none more likely
than from the United States.

From the London Chronicle.
The most prominent feature of Maria

Mosque, and the most interesting detail
Of this is the three "goldeh' globes
which surmount the lantern. Mr. Bud
gett Meakin has collected the legends
about these and similar globes on another
mosque, all of which go back to some
Queen of Morocco" who gave them, &C.
cording to one version. in penance for en-
croaching for three hours in the Ramadun
to steal them, including Thomas Pellew
a prisoner here early i'm the eighteenth
century. Legend had il that robbers were
always driven OF by a fearful rumbling
noise and panic stricken: and Pellew tells
how he and his accomplices found this to
be true. Nevertheless. when the globes
had to be restored some years ago. they
proved to be only copper gilt.
