THE $103? as ventral) in the paper... here seems to point to the com- missim of a brutal outrage in the name of the law that should make every woman rise and demand the enfrnuchiseznent of her sex without delay. A few days ago the papers were full of startling articles headed. “ My- hl'sl‘lutls Disappearance of a Lady” and Lon- don was supposed to be on the verge of one of those rent criminal sensations which thrill the largest cities and incidentally ag1t~ are cvcry centre of civilization to which the news permeates. Tin: lady in question was a Mr. Cathcart, of Wootton Park, Stafford, who is worth from five to ten millions of dollars in her civil right and is descended from one of the oldest families in the coun- try. Mrs. Cathart hil cums to illlld on for the purpose of instituting legal proceedings relative to lit-r estates, for which purpose she had visited the law courts in the Strand with her maid. During the doy she had oc- casino to send her maid to the hotel in Piccadilly whereshe was stayingand instruct- ed her not to return, as she would follow her shortly. AS THE LADY Du) No-r ltli’l‘UItS her maid made inquiries at. the law courts concerning her, but could g-un nu satisfac- tory information. The pulilewere communi- cated with, the reportch is usual took up the story and London urns breathless for a 500 moment on the verge of a new sensation. Very early the next day the suspense was dissipated by an explanation received from the police. The lady had, on leaving the law courts, been seized by four keepers from W ' v v I v r 'l. a “mum as) lum and comm ed [5 them L ) L close connection between the drink interest madhouse, notwithstanding Mrs. Cathcart's protests, who had called upon the police for protection and had been refused it.

An important public document was issued a most startling revelation as to the gigantic proportions of theli nor interest and its con- It will beremem- bered thatMr. Goschen brought in last. year a foolish and ill-advised measure which grant- ed compensstion of liquor-dealers on the ex- tinction of their licenses; and that this mea- sure roused such vigorous opposition that its authors were compelled to withdaaw it. We were then treated to piteous tales of the poor but honest publican who was to be de- prived of his living and turned out into the cold world, and voters were asked by enor~ mous lacards posted everywhere if they would consenting parties to such gross injustice. Apparently British voters were quite willing to consent- to it, and the docu- ment just issued is the justification of their hostility to that. compensation scheme. For it is now prOved beyond donut {what the opponents of Mr. Goschen’s bill had all along asserted) that the compensation would not 0 to the poor publican, but to the wealthy rewer. The government return, in short, proves that the liquor business is a. gigantic monopoly in the control of a. handful of persons who wield enormous power, and i that a ood proportion of these are peers of the road r. In London alone 10,000 liquor shops are owned by monopolists, companies, syndi- cates, and wealthy individuals, the nominal tenant being a. mere bartender, who has no interest whatever in the business. In Mau- chester there are 2,054 houses in the hands of absentee landlords ; in Liverpool, 2,008 ; in Sheffield, 1,102 ; in Bristol, 893 ;in Ports- mouth, 806 ; in Norwich, 605; in Salford, 567 ; in Nottingham, 541 ; in Hull, 460 ; in Leicester, 402., One single firm, that of Greenall, Whitley 8: Co., owns 534 driuk- l shops in three counties ; another firm owns 257 in Bristol alone ; one man owns l5!) in Birmingham, and another firm 143 in Liverpool. Two brewers own such places in the county of Nor- Iu short, the brewing and distilling trades are now in the hands of great wealthy bodies, which spread their tentacles in the form of licensed houses all over the land. it is peculiarly interesting to note the and the house of lords. Indeed, it is quite usual now to speak of the peerage humor- while the tenants on the ladv’s estate had 01’513' “'3 the “beemfie-” met an:l immediately .‘IllltSCllllIEIl a sum of ten thousand dollars to be otl'ered as a re- ward for the recovery of the lady ocad or alive, so much had she endeared herself to all of those With whom she came in contact. The tenants, upon learning what had be- fallen Mrs. Cat-heart, immediately started an investigation of the circumstances under which the seizure of the lady had been made, but could do nothing on her behalf, as the proper legal steps had been taken in the matter and her committal made on the Al'TLIOItlTY 0F PHYSICIANS. A key to this high-handed outrage may pmsi ly be found in the fact that by the conditions of her marriage settlements, in case of her being declared alunatic or dying, all her ropcrty reverts to her husband, and on his oath to her relatives. \Vho shall say that this peculiar legal instrument has not been the cause of a vile and detestable crime? In the first place, why was it fram- ed if not with some object of this kind in view? MRS. CA'ritcAirr was UNTIL mm MARRIAGE five years ago a Miss Unwin, the riches! heiress in England without exception and a young lady of extraordinary beauty. She became engaged to Mr. Catlicart, who was her cousin, and the couple Wcl‘e dul marri- ed with great display. Three wee s after her marriage Mrs. Cathcurt left her husband and refused to live with him any longer. She has not, so far as is known, given any further explanation of why she so decidâ€" ed than that she did it at the dictation of her own feelings and because of her husband’s conduct. As Mr. Cathcart refused to vacate the comfortable mansion to which he had gained admission through‘ his marriage his wife left her ancestral home and resided at the village inn in the vicinity. The two continued to live in this way for some time until finally, about a year later, Mr. Cathcartv, after consulting with a sur- geon. had her seized one night after she had retired to bed and forcibly conveyed in a. carriage to her own house. It is alle ed by Mrs. Cutlicart that her husband too ' this step for the purpose of obtaining certain papers from her relativeto the property. stir: sunsmvnxsnv ESCAPED mom HER uvs- BAND who was at the time unable to satisfy the doctors as to her insanity, aml resumed her independent method of living. She then published a statement in the papers that she would not- bo responsible for any debts her husband might contract and be instituted a. suit against. her to restrain her from sellin certain stock which was being transferred for her by the Bank of England. In this suit the husband was successful. Finally, having learned that her husband was un- faithful to her, 5] rs. Catlicart instituted pro- ceedings for divorce. At the trial she failed to substantiate the charges, and as the prin- cipal act of cruelty s cilied was her seizure at the inn and forcib e lemnval to her own house, the grounds were deemed to be in- sutlicicnt to justify the granting of her ap- cal. The suit- was consequently dismissed. . [rs L‘utlicart. has been under continual ap- prehension with regard to what new form of perscmtion her husband’s cruelty to her would take. She has at times imagined that he would seek to poison her, it is stated. and has always feared that he would execute his threat to place her in a n'adhouse. TERI“; IS ABUNDANT I'ROOF that the lady has been the object of constant persecution at her husband's hands, and if ihe has become qualified to be an inmate of m asylum it will not be surprising under she circumstances. Mr. Cathcart's conduct ices not appear to have been that of a corn dtive and highly refined gentleman, and it oaks very much from his actions that his his! interest in marrying was the acquisi- ion of his cousin's dueats. There will pro. tab!

Poets and novelists go into ecstasies over what they romantically call “ beautiful spring,” and “gentle spring,” and while, no doubt, every one is glad to see winter release its icy grasp, “ beautiful spring ” is, after all, one of the most deadly seasons of the year.
