The general opening ot the schools on October first suggests the ststement of a few legal rules on this topic. The National Bareau of Education has lately published a pamphlet of recent school law decisions. A parent has no right to control the studio- of his child, so as to interfere with those of other*; he cannot insist on his child using a different textbook or taking up an a idltional study, but he can direct that his child shall omit some of the prescribed studies. A school board may prescribe that irregular atteudance shall forfeit the right of attendance. As to chastisement, tlie teacher stands In the t lace of the parent and may punish “with kindness, prudence and propriety." A whipping ■which left w«lts on the person of ttc pupil for weeks afterward was held an assault and battery. Tue jurisdiction of the teacher extends to school hours, and not to the pupil's conduct at home. A PARAGRAPH FOR THR LADIES. The history of the law relating to women is a gradual story of amelioration. Even in the time of Blackstone “moderate chas tisement with a slender swltcj" was with in th** conjugal privilege, but a man was convicted of murder a few years ago in ^Massachusetts because he struck his wife, although he did not intend to kill her, and although she was ‘ drunk and insolent.” Formerly all the wife’s property was im mediately confiscated to the husband by marriage. But after a time the law per mitted her to own her clothes and after* vtords a little pin money. Now it is all pin money. A lady who understood the law said lately to her spouse: “WhitV yours is mine and what’s mine is ray own.” Formerly a married woman cculd not make a will. A humorist has said that this w«s because women had their wills all their lives. But now they can leave their Wilis in operation after their death. LAW AND BUSINESS. There is something grand and beautiful in the conception the law enuring silently into all the relations ami transactions of life and determining their character. Of course this universal presence of law is an unconscious presence. The force of gravity is never felt until one tries to lift some thing or in some way disturb the condi tions of matter. 80 the inherence of It A MILLIONAIRE TAKES A »n Dc. The Marrlnea of Jacob Tc»«e, tged Three Score and Ten, to Miss Eva 8. Nesbitt. Baltimore 8un. Jacob Tome, the will-kuown banker and millionaire, was married to-day to Miss Eva 8. Nesbitt, at the house of the bride's father. The ceremony took place at 12 o'clock noon and was performed by Rev. Thomas E. Martindale. The wedding was a very quiet affair, only the relatives and a few Intimate friends of the bride be*"? present The bride, pale and fair, with golden hair, tied in a classic knot behind, was dressed in a navy-blue traveling suit and blue velvet trimmed bonnet. She wore no tar-rings or other ornaments, except a simple brooch at the th-ost. The groom was the obj*»ct of many congratulations. He wore a full suit of blark and a shiny silk hat and looked his best.. The marriage of Mr. Tome is indeed a matter of social interest, not only here in l*ort Deposit, where he h»« lived for fifty years, but in a large section of the country, where his business enterprises an I wealth bavt given him influence and importance Mr. Tome reached his seventy-fourth year on the 13th of August last He has bee.* a widower for ten jears.

Three children were borne to Mr. Touie by his first wife, but they ell d.cd in early years. The bridegroom is remarkably vigoron for his age. He is thick-set, well preserved, (•lightly above tbe medium height and dresses neatly. He has strong features, a s'out neck, firm mouth, sandy besrd and hair, both cut closely and mixed plenti fully with gray. His face and figure sug geat General Grant as he looked a few years ago.

Yet the parties who got tbe benefit fortunately had the desire to pay coupled with the ability, and so nobody lost any money. There are some rules of law that arc just aa practical and important as arithmetic. I wonder that no one has ever made up a text nook of them—a legal arithmetic—for use of the public schools. That methol of learning is certainly cheaper than.the present method of learn- ing by experience. That a man who sign* a negotiable note gives himself away to the public; that a note is barred in six years and canuot be renewed by a credit entered by the holder: that a promi.-e to be security for another's debt is not bind ing unless in writing. 8uch things as these men generally learn by losing money the first t*me. WHIN DOES A LAW TAXI XmtCr IN GEORGIA ? Formerly, la England, a law took effect from the first day of Parliament The re sult waa that laws applied to transactions which occurred before their passage. This was seen to be monstrous, and led to the next rule, that they took effect from and after their passage. But it ia obviously un just to bind ihe people by a law until it lias been promulgated, and Judge Lump kin urged upon tbe Legislature to enact that a law should net take effect until pub- lished. This was done in the Code of 1903, section 3, which provided for publication in a public gazette. But as no gazette was prescribed, the Legislature of 1870 repealed so much of the section as prescribed publi cation in a publio gazette. Judge Bimmons has decided that tbe act did not repeal the requirement of publication, but only of pnblicstion in a gazette Judge Bleckley, however, in his “Report on the Code," re gards the entire requirement for publica tion repealed. If he is right, we are in the miry barbarism of tbe middle ages. A man could be punished or lose his property in Georgia under a law that he could not know. The General Assembly should remove the doubt which surrounds the question. MISCELLANEOUS. A long winded lawyer was boring a judge. Said the latter: “Mr. ,you have slated that before." and th»n pausing, "but you may have forgotten; it was a long time ago." A juror who was deaf in one ear asked to be excused on the ground that be could only hear one » Lie of a case. He was like tbe witness who refused to 'kiss the book” wheu told to hold up bis right hand, be cause he waa left-handed. Another juror made the excuse of deafness. "Didn't you hear my charge to the grand jury 7" as» e 1 the judge, “Yte.yoor honor, but I couldn't make heads or tails of it.'' He was ex cused.

Montreal, October 2.—A case of a novel and amusing nature was tried this morn ing in the recorder’s coqrt here. The par ties to the suit were Mr. Allan Ham ilton, s clerk in the Crown office, department of the court house, and nepheyof Mr. Justice Johnson, who was the complaint against a civil service em ploye, also a well known young gentleman, but moving in a lower grade in the social scale, as the plaintiff would prohibit say. The cause of complaint is probable tbe first of the kind ever brought before a court of law. The plaintifl adeged thnt the defendant had insnlted him in the pub lic street by calling him "a dude." Hamilton's appearance in court aatisfl ed the spectators that so far as the fact was concerned the defendant hsd not se riously maligned him even if he appltd tbe ep.thet iu question. The legal point st issue, however, was whether an insult, puniibabto by fins or imprisonment, hsd been offered in public. For a long time, In the amusiug turn which the cue took the real issue was lost sight of. Both sides were represented by able conniel and a large nntuber of witness had been summoned chiefly, it »cem«, with a view to discovering tha ex act meaning of the word “dude." To this end a multitude of questions were asked and a hewi deriug variety of definlrione we re elicited. as may be imagined when it is mentl >ned that the witnesses included lawyers, civil service employes, policemen, well kuown young swells, tailors, mer chants, theatrical agents, and jour nalists, Tbe court room was pack ed curing tha trial, and the assem blage included some of the leading people here. At times the evidence eauied up roarious laughter. In the end the court staud that it was thoroughly bewildered as to what a “dude" actually was, but as it was not proved that the nllrg-d ius lit bad taken place in thepuhl c street be would dismiss the case. Hamilton de clares that he will carry the case to a higher court. SECRETARY GRESHAM TO RETIRE. Mr. Morton Not EH'gibla to the Place Unless he Retiree from hie ■ Banklig Business. Washington, September 30.—It may be accepted u definitely settled that Secreta ry Gresham will retire from the Cabinet and accept th« Circuit Judgeship to suc ceed Judge Drummond, as soon at the President decides upon whom to confer tbe Treasury portfolio, and matters «i 1 remain In abeyance until the arrival of Mr. Levi P. Morton. The question of Mr. Mor- ton'a eligibility for appointment as Secretary of the Treasury cannot be deter mined without |*er«oual conference with bint. Tbe act of 17*0 provides that no person appointed to thenffic^aof s*?reUry of the treasury, first comptroller, tir.t aud itor, treasurer, or register (dia l be directly or indirectly concerned in trade or com merce. or ettgag-d tn purchase or disposal of State or United States securities. The violation of this act is made a high misdemeanor punishable by fine, re moval and disbarment from holding there- f after any office under the government. Mr. Morton is the senior member of a banking bouse dealing In auch securities, and to become eligible for the Treasurv portfolio be must absolutely retire there from. Conte -vuently, should tbe President desire to appoint him to that position, Mr. Morton must be effrrded opportunity to decide what coarse to pursue. The Evening Star fe authority for the statement that Mr. Morton would not ec c**pt the oilioe for only five months, but that this difficulty bad been obviated, ac cording to report, by an arrangement which will continue bhn in the Cabinet about i Mr. Biafna be elected, and that this iles there seem to > movement vrhat- willing to let time Another additional situstmn is that a >ra have become dis cing from the city satisth outint “And is there the same hostility to Gen ies that there u«ed to be?" "Xh, no; association has softened _ sreatdealof that feeling that existei at one time. Gentiles have better chances to make money than they did ten years ego. It used to be that tbe church had an ira tnense establishment in the city that might have been called a colossal wholesale and retail atore. This was in a magnificent building near the temple and contained ever* thing that a Mormon needed. Since the death of Brigham Yonrg. however, this system has graiusl'y fallen into de cay, and at present the Gentiha are erect ing shops all over the city, and within a short while Salt Lake Chy will have the appearance of any other large town with in the Interior of the United States. An other aocial change that is gradually tak ing place is that the ‘ Mor mons and Gentihs are mingling more than ever. Oh.

His managers failed t-o disclose the full truth to him respecting the cancelling of <111 is engagements, owing to tbe respect that they entertalned for the man's force ful nature. He had displayed great anger when informed of the termination of the Chicago engagement Ilia manager found it difficult to restrain and control hitu and hesitated to tell him that his future, in so ier as Lis Strain appearing upon the stage was concerned, was a blank. Mr. McCul louah read the accounts in the papers of yesterday concerning him, and s on aft?r repaired to the Tretuunt Hou«e, where Miss Tracy, formerly the leading lady of his company, was Having. He declared that he intended to start mini* distrdy f r Detroit. Sue persuaded him to aband m the plan until evening, and lie did so.

Mr. McCullough was induced to take a narcotic and at 4 o'clock this morning he lav down and obtained three hours' sleep, tho tint that he had had for s »me time. He awoke re refreshed, rose and dressed and. iu a calm mood, went to the Chicago Club, \rh;.e ho breakfasted. His shadow ing detective never deserted him. however. In the night E. D.
