UXDOX, Nov. 16. Of the many!
kwn on the British statute book none!
in so ambiguous or mlnleadliiK as that
retatinff to the power of n husband
over his wife.
Under the strict letter of the law a
British husband can exercise over his
wife un almost Turk-like dominion.
Hut in accordance with the Married
Women's JProperty Act should a hus
band live In the house and home which
is her property he may only do so pro
viding he behaves himself.
Should he entertain any of his
friends there without first obtainlns
his wife's permission it is tantamount
to misbehavior and he can be ejected.
Most of the ancient matrimonial
rights have disappeared. A case, how
ever, cropped lip n the law courts the
other day In which an action wasi
brousht by a husband against his J or otherwise and take her to his house

Miss Cecilia Avan came over to America to escape iiiu boredom of I

land's prettiest rirl. She has won so many 'contests Uwt she tay li e I

The case devekped that the wife
fulfilled the threat of going back to
"her people" and left the husband flat.
The result was that the father-in-law
was involved in a very expensive law
suit and in the end had to deliver up
his daughter to her rightful protector.
There Is an illusion abroad that the
Englishman note English not British
--has a right to beat his wife with a
stick not thicker than his thumb. That
was so sixty years ago, and though the
act was never repealed, there are cer
tain Judgments in existence which
have considerably modified the power
of a husband over his wife.
There as a time not long ago
when a husband became tho absolute
owner of his wife's flroperty on her
marriage; she herself, too, became his
'. property; if she ran away he might
keep her by force within the bounds
of duty, and also he may beat her. but
not In a violent or cruel manner."
That is the outlet now through
which a wife may sue her husband for
assault should he strike her. There
fore should the modern husband ex
ercise his pre-1860 rights and thrash
his wife for some misdemeanor he is
liable to be sued by the said spouse
for assault, and If he repeats the of;
fense it becomes persistent cruelty, for
which sho is entitled to a separation
with alimony.
ll-opi'ily lU-glits.
However tho letter of the law still
exists in England. Legally the wife's
position has only been Improved In
regard to her property, but the Inter
pretation and spirit of it has under
gone considerable alteration.
The beating once regarded as per

ing" and mild remonstrance. Even
the latter is now dangerous, because
if a husband's verlwil abuse is proved
to have had an Injurious effect upon
the wife's health it may amount to
cruelty and become a matter for the
divorce court.
Th. last time on record that a hus
band attempted to assert bis powers
was in isal. He quoted what is known
as the famous Cochran cas In the
Cochran case the wife In order to es
cape from what she nlleged to be the
"fitful fever" of an unhappy married
life, fled to her mother.
SVho remained absent for four years.
D iring that time she had among other
things "attended musked balls in l'urs
iwiib per.ons whom her husband did
not ki.ow."
i IJy crder of the court the wifo was
forced lo return to her husband and

! "Husband and wife were one in law;
the law allows but one will between
them, which must be placed in the
ihusband as tho fittest nilil' ablest to
govern the family."
I In the case of lS!)l the husband
.quoted this case. The facts were that
'the husband bodily seized his wife as
she was leaving church in company
:w:th her sister and carried her away
.in a c,i:, took her home and placed her
under lock and key.
