THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, WEDNESDAY, THE USE OF THE CLUB. ¥ Policemen Should Have Some Knowledge of Anatomy—One Officer's Mcthod. the New York World. @ grave charge brought against the police from time to time of the too frequent use of their clubs on refractory prisoners, and in some cases on perfectly innocent citizens whom their own want of judgment has misted them to re- gard as criminals, induced a reporter yesterday to make inquiries as to the instructions Issued by the commissioners of potice to newly-ap- pointed police officers respecting the use of their clubs. Nothing more expheit than a gen- eral order cuthorizing the use of a club on a violent and ctory prisoner to such extent as may be essary for his secure conveyance to the station could be f No in- structions » the manner of usi the club have, so f could be discovered by the re- rter, ever been issued, it being leit to the Fount of the policeman wheter he strike prizoner on the ari or on the temple. From aconversation with a well known phy- sleian it was learned that the greatest daz; sarily always tend the use of so weapon as the club ordinarily car- ew York police. At the same time, a knowledge of the vital parts of man by police officers would doubtless save the life of many a man. Dr. Wooster Beach, of No. 161 east 4 related a ease of clubbing which came under bis observation some fifteen or sixteen years azo. “A young man, about 20 years of age,” said Dr. Beach, “while somewhat under the influence of "liquor, created a dis- turbance In the street, for which he was arrest- ed by a policeman.” He became abusive to the olicer, and refused to’ be taken te the station-house. The assistance of three other policemen was secured, and the four | seized the young man, two taking him by the arms and two by the legs, carrying him in this way through the strect.’ On’ the way he was Very noisy and struggled some, but was easily controlled. Suddenly one of the policemen raised his club and struck hima blow, as near as could be ascertained. directly over the stomach. Instantly he ceased his noise, his body became hmp and powerless, and in ‘this apparent lifeless condition he was carried on to the station-house, a distance of less than a! ter of a mile. that he was dead. body to be that of a heaithy man. } the most elementary 8 of man on the part of the polleeman would ave saved his prisoner from death and himself from a term in state prison.

A Wife’s Liability for Expenses Incur- red by Her Husband. A Chicago court report says: Judge Jameson this morning delivered an in- teresting decision on married women’s property righte: In November, 1879, Elijah J. Dicks and his wife, Ruth, came to this city from Indiana, and rented the house of Mary Follett. At-the same time, Mrs. Follett sold her househeld furniture to Dicks for something like $100, for which he gave his note, but has never paid It. Follett sued him on the note before a justice, and got judgment, but the execution was returned “no goods found.” Subsequently Follett filed a creditor's bill against both husband and wife, alleging that the furniture was bought for fam- ily use: that the purchase of it was a part of the emsideration for renting the house, which was also for tamily use, and that theretore the prop- erty of the wife is iabie for the debt. The bill ‘ks to levy on a lot on Indiana avenue, south ot 40th street, which, it alleges, Elijah J. Dicks bought recently for his wife, attempting to con- ceal her interest in the transaction. This isthe suit, whieh was decided this morning, and the decision turned on the construction of section 15 of the chapter in the revised statutes on husband and wite. The section was adop- ted verbatim from the Iowa code, and has never ed by the supreme court of Illinois. he expenses of the family and | of the education of the children shall be charzea- ble upon the property of both husband and wite, or either of them, in favor of creditors therefor, and in reiation thereto they may be sued joint- ly or separately.” The judge held that our legislature, in’ adopting this section from the Iowa code adopted also the construction put upon it by the Iowa supreme court. That court has decided that a judgment against the husband was not only no bar to charging the wife, but the execution against the hus- band might be levied on the property of the wife, without her having had her day in |court. Mrs. Dicks testified that the furniture was not necessary for her tamily, as she had a plenty already, and her testimony was not con- tradicted. But the lowa court expressly de- cided that the expenses referred to in the stat- ute need not be necessary expenses, but must be gauged by the condition and standing ot the family. The Alabama statute uses the words “article of comfort, and for the support of the household,” and the supreme court of that state refused to makea wife liable to pay her husband's bill for “tobacco, pantaloons, fish-hooks, and a bottle ot brandy.” Mrs. Dicks testitied that she warned Follett that she did not approve of the purchase of the furniture. and would not pay for But the evidence shows that subse- is, therefore, that equiesced in the purchase. How- ¥ be, the husband, notwithstanding all the statutes eniarging the wife's rights that have been enacted in Illinois in late years, is | still the head of the family, ers hiave | aright to regard him as its rightful purveyor. | They may trust his judgment about what the family needs, rather than his w This ruling may be hard on the wife, but would be harder on the ¢ cripple the busband in his ef his family. It was urged that as at common law the husband was not bound for the wife's | debts if he notified ereditors, so in this case the | Wie should not be bound if ‘she notitied credi- tors that she would not be.

The | truth of both these statements is confirmed by history. The game general fact has been ob- served among all the abnormal classes, such as idiots, cretins, the insane. the blind, the deaf and dumb, and te some extent, with extreme or | abuormal organizations, such as are excessively | corpulent or spare, as well as of unnatural size, either very large or diminutively smail, It would seem that nature herself is bound to yé be Sorry, and suifer | put an end to organizations that are monstrous, that are defective and abnormal or unnatural or imperfect in any respect.

Such facts would indicate that there must be a general law of propagation that alms at a higher or more perfect standard. If this principle is | Spplied to distinct classes in society, some strik- | ing illustrations may be obtained. Take the familles belonging to the nobility. the aristo- cracy. or the most select circles, where by in- heritance, refinement and culture the nervous | temperament has become yery predominant, it is found that such families do not increase from generation to generation in offspring, and not unfrequently, in time, they become extinct. 2 se.

Louis florist says: Probably more ladies would wear natural flowers if they knew how to fix them on the corsage or belt without danger of staining the dress by moisture from the stems. “How can it-be done?” “Easily enough, where the spray has a background of fern or smilax, neither of which is moist. Roses, carnations and the bouvardia, that spiked flower that looks like Jessamine, never stain. Any or all of these placed ‘on smilax, for instance, the ends wrapped in tinfoil, could be ‘worn with safety, though a soft handkerchief might be placed beneath for protection. If the spray should be at all damp. laying it on white unglazed paper awhile will soon absorb the moisture. Corsage bouquets are placed with the point down. With a little care those flowers could be worn on any dress. I saw dozens of ladies at a ball who had been presented boxes of the most expensive flowers, but they wore not a singie bad to show for it.” “Why don’t you Introduce the European custom of using bright-colored flowers for funerals 7” G “We are trying to.
