Legal Status.

LOndon.-It is Il basis OF a hUS-
bands claim for divorce damages thaf
his wife is still in fact if not i'm law

of an interesting argument before Jus
tice McCardie in the divorce Crsurt.
arising out Of q case in which dam
ages were sought against tR CO.
respondent by the husband. CO&Hsss
for the petitioner said that UP 10 Tfls

His lordship then asked when bad g
wife ceased to be regarded as a chat
tel. Counsel for the petitioner sard
he had not suggested that this def
had gone.
J~udge-You say she is still to tre
regarded as n chattel?
Counsel-Yes, with slight modificar
tons. The question in assessing dam
ages is what she is worth.
Judge-Then you call her quasi
chattel?
After some further discussions JuS
tiCe, McCardie asked If as the result
of counsePs researches he could shewr
that n wife could bring action against
the seducer of her husband.
Counsel said there was n such case
and that there could not be sneh ar
action because a had nsf the

RattIesnakes Prove
Menace to Stock

Portsmouth, Tex. - Rattle
snakes In large numbers recent
ly have been seen swimming in
the Gulf of Mexico near the Half
Moon lighthouse, seven miles
from the mainland and four
miles from the peninsula to the
south, according to the two men
who keep the light. 1t is said
three rattlers e killed on the
lighthouse platform by the keep
ers. Tenants on property which
formerly constituted the Rancho
Grande here report a pestilence
OF rattlesnakes, which, they say,
are a menace to live stock. How
ever, 1t is reported by q number
of farmers that fat cattle, bitten
by rattlers, do not die, the poi
son from the bite of one snake
being insufficient to kill them.

OLD TUNES

AS the strata of perfume, heliotrope, rose,
Float in the garden when no wind blows,
Come to us, go from US, whence no one
knows;
SO the old tunes float, in my mind,
And go from me, leaving no trace behind,
Like perfume borne on the hush Of the
wind.
But In the instant the airs remain
| know the laughter and the pain
or times that will not come again;
/ try to catch at many a tune
Like petals of light fallen from the moon,
Broken and bright on a dark lagoon.
But they float ~away-for who can hold
Youth, or perfume, or the moons gold?

The Favorite She'll Fish.

The edible cruStacea, as shrimp or
prawns, craWfish, lobster and crabs,
musSels, are claSSed under the head
ing of shell fish. Oysters, because of
their flavor, are ranked as favOrite
not valued. At the price they have
been this season in most markets,
they are an expensive luxury, only to
be used in case OF illness or con
valescence.

The night before Christmas the
eighth platoon aneaksd ailently out Of
camp to "salvage" those pigs. The
French Canadians had taken the old
man to the Catholic services in the
st lines, leaving us free to land the
bacon" Everything went as per
schedule. We had some trouble get
ting the old SOW tied up, gagged, and
loaded in the push cart At last the
eighth platoon with seven pigs start
ed on its way back to the place of ex-
ecution. Holy smoked but il was
dark. We had just one lantern,
French affair, with candle in it.
We were following that beacon in sin
gle file, the cart bringing UP the rear.
Suddenly the light disappeared. Then
twelve men and six pigs shot out Of
sight. The fellows on the cart stop

pounds of prospective pork landed on

eighth. Right then and there hog lat

started in to rescue her children. Up
and down the trench she charged.
Every time one of those little cusses

job, At last we got the little pigs
on top of the corral, corralled the old
lady in dugout, got her tied up, and
started once more for camp. We
hadn't gone more than half a mile
