Her akull waa badly crushed, and tbe
brains were eczing from the ghastly wound.
Mabel, aged eight years, waa found lying

leg reeling upon her Btemacb. The two
year-old baby, Maggie, was taken from an
adjoining room. The latter was sleeping
In a cradle In a room en tbe aecend fleer

Mr. Parmer, although soflerlng greatly,

these gentlemen was held en Saturday and
Ihe plana were discussed in detail, but tbey

A Twenty-two Months Infant TJiss ripe and
Tobacco Like it Veteran,
Winchester, Tenn,, prfebably possesses
the youngest smoker In the state, if net In
the world. His name Is Wallace L:ehrldge,
and be la 1 year and 10 months old.
He will smoke a pipe nr cigar with as
mueh esse and apparent comfort as a con
firmed smoker et adult years. He cravea
tobacco, and Indulgence in tbe weed never
makes blm sick. Yeung Wallace has
smoked ever since he was a year old, hla
father says, and I he habit Is evidently
growing en blm. Your correspondent saw
the "baby" pulling away at a pipe in front
of bis fstbet's livery stsble Sunday morn
ing and tbe little fellow aeemed te relish
tbe narcotle immensely and te greatly
enjoy the great wreaths of smoke issuing
from bis tiny lips. He seems te have a
natural appetite ler tobacco, and crlea If
deprived of asmeke. He Is an unusually
bright and intelligent child, is line looking,
ateut and robust and is aesurealy a wonder.
A crowd collected In Irent of bis father's
cilice en Sunday attracted by the little ene
pullllng away delightedly at an etd and
nloetlne-Boaked pipe, and much surprise
and wonder were evinced at the Infant's
singular performance This 1b certainly a
remarkable case, and an unusual instance
of perverted taste in ene se young.
The parents of tbe child are well known
and highly respected poeplo, and tbey are
at a less te account for their baby'a extra
ordinary passion for tbe soduetlve weed.

A married man In Pennsylvania can no

Impunity, aa the aupreme oeurt haa just
doelded that the married parson's property
eotefl8S7 glveatbewifethe right te take
her husbind'a property In execution and
without hla oenaant. Tha following opinion
waa made by Judge Hand, reversing the
decision of the oeurt of common pleas of
Indiana oennty :
The queatlonet the Jadgment la this easa
haa bean before thla oeurt, and la reported
In 118 Penna. St. 601. The sela question
bow Is whether an execution may Issue at
the inatanee of the wife without the consent
et the husband. The law Is reasonably pre-
!;reea!ve. There la no stronger evidence of
hla than tbe statutes of thla commonwealth
and the decisions of thla oeurt en the subject
et the rights and prlvllegea of married
women. It tbe curleua wish te verify tblK,
It may found In the reasoning of Agnew,

Trunkey, J., In Rese va. Latshaw, 00 Id.
239, and Williams, J,, in tbe ease between
theae aame parties, cited above. Were we
seeking for another reason than tba logic
et tbe law It might ba found In tbe facta
of thla case, tbat the bend en
whleb Judgment was entered waa given
In consideration et the plalntlfTa premise
te marry the defendant aud live with him
as his lawful wife ; tbat ahe did marry and
live with him ; that for the sake et thla
home abe gave up her pension, her meanaef
support ; that for oeme eiuie husband and
wlia are living apart, each averring a deser
tion, or what ameunta te the aame thing.
The law for many yeara abhorred lta
benefiolent use as a son roe et contention be
tween husband and wife, but It haa found
tbat Bourees of discord worse thsn an
execution can creep In and mar tbe family,
harmony, and in faet If It depends en. the
delicacy of tbe law te Interfere it la leaning
en a broken reed. It la perhaps well that
people abeuld learn that conjugal bappl.
nesa abeuld be sought from ether sources

it was said by way of quotation tbata law
ful execution may Issue upon such a Judge

forward with every motion. Just before
reaching bli home tbe little fellow
gave the umbrella a final toss and atoed
