CLARKE, * Agent ) \ LAW OF SELF DEFENSE. The English Theory of Where Protection Ends and Revenge Begins. The right of self defense is by some eld writers declared to be inherent in all men by the law of nature. Now, these ‘‘natural rights’’ are all very well, but they are not recognized by the law of Great Britain. It is the law that a man may defend himself, his wife, child or servant from physical ag- gression. He may also repel by force a forcible attack upon his property. When you, or your wife, child, or servant is attacked, or threatened with violence in such a mapner as reasonably to lead you to believe that violence is about to be used, you may resist the aggressor. And as the best mode of resistance is very often to attack, you may lawtully follow the advice given by an old prize- fighter to a pupil—i.e., ‘‘get in the first whack.”’ But self defense must be moderate. It must not be totally disproportioned to the attack. For instance, if a hulk- ing ruffian runs at me witha knife, I may shoot him. Butif he runs at me merely with his fists clinched, and I shoot him dead with a revolver, I shall probably be hanged by the neck. Not that the law expects a man to be calm and cool and collected in all circum- stances. By no means. For instance, if the said burly ruffian rushes at me with clinched fists, evidently meaning mis- chief, and I hit him with a heavy stick on the back of the ear, I may kill him. But I shall uot be hanged for that. I had a right to use the stick, and in the circumstances I am not to be supposed to be cool enough to aim for a spot not likely to be fatal. Again, self defense must not develop into revenge. Thus, if Il am threatened with a knife, and by the timely display of a pistol I frighten my assailant so that he runs away, | must not shoot after him. If I do, lam just as liable as though be had never threatened me, because I shoot at him not in self defense, but by way of pun- ishment or revenge. —Family Lawyer. LAW OF THE UMBRELLA. An Important Opinion That Has Been Ascribed to Lord Coleridge. The law as to umbrellas was settled once for all by Lord Coleridge in a lead- ing English case. His lordship held: ‘*Umbrellas, properly considered, are a part of the atmospheric or meteorolog- ica] condition, and as such there can be no individual property right in them. In Sampson versus Thompson defendant was charged with standing on plaintiff's front steps during a storm and thereby soaking up a large quantity of rain to which plaintiff was entitled. But the court held that the rain was any man’s rain, no matter where it fell. It fol- lows, therefore, that the umbrella is any man’s umbrella. In all ages rain and umbrellas have gene together, and there is no reason why they should be separated in law. An umbrella may, under certain circumstances—the chief of which is possession—take on the at- tributes of personal property, just as if aman setatub and catch a quantity of rainwater, that rainwater will be considered as his personal belonging while it isin his tub. But if the sun evaporate the water and it is rained down again or if the tub is upset and the water spilled then the attribute of personal owvership instantly disay pears. So if a man bold his umbrella i bis hand it may be considered a per- sonal belonging, but the moment it leaves his hand it returns to the great, general, indivisable, common stock of umbrellas, whither the law will not at- tempt to pursue it.’’ So far as we know there has never been a successful appeal from this de cision. —~Chicago News. A Disturbing Sermon. Many years ago an English clergyman in a small town preached as his own a sermon, one that he had bought, and which had been originally preached in London when the plague was raging in that city. After reproving the vice of the people, the sermon went on: ‘For this vice it is that God has vis- ited you and your families with that cruel scourge, the plague, which is now spreading everywhere in this town.”’ At bis uttering these words the peo- ple were all so thunderstruck that the chief magistrate was obliged to go to the pulpit and ta ask him: ‘For God's sake, sir, pardon the in- terruption, and inform me where the or photo for free ad ; On, plague is, that I may instantly endeavor to prevent its further spreading.”’ ‘*The plague, sir:’’ replied the preach- er. ‘‘I know nothing abont the plague. Whether it is in the town or not, it is in my bomily.’’ qeRir is what has given Hood’s d Sarsaparilla the largest sajes in ‘he world and enables it to accomplish thousends of wonderful CURES. j TOURISTS — Prince Edware | Island Illustrated is a beauti. fally illustrated beek on P E Island.
