Whipped His Wife Then, Quoted
Scripture.
Philadelphia Times.
Edward Spencer, a young
farmer.near Trenton, Mo., whipned
hia wife the rtl)u>t> <lav .U*.
yr - * - - - found
cause for the act in Scripture
and he tried to prove Scrip
tural license for it when the wife
brought him into court to answer
to u unit for divorce.
As u reason for administorting
punishment he said thut she had
not heea all that a good wife
should he to her husband.
"She has not given me the
obedience she pledged at the marriage
altar," explained Spencer
to the court. "1 have given to
her the rules of wifely conduct
laid down in Proverbs, 21: 'She
seeketh wool and flax and worketh
willingly with her bands; she
risetli while it ia yet night and
giveth meat to her household.'
But she in often lazy, is a poor
sewer, and I and my house are
neglected.
"The marriage relations are
clearly set forth hy the Apostle
Paul in his letter to tho Ephe*
sians," ho explained. 4'lie says
in chapter 5 that the husband is

In the 22d verse he says: "Wives,
submit yourselves unto your bus- t
.bands as unto the Lord."
Spencer admitted that this was ?
i . . k
i not a direct permission, but that
it meant the same thing. Mrs. j
i Spencer, however, had not ques- j
j tioncd this right in general Her c
point was that he had no right to
whip her with a hickory ramrod
i simply because she couldn't seo a
squirrel up a tree.

Negro Company Disbanded.
j Governor McSweeney, on WeiK
nesday, says a Columbia dispatch,
disbanded the Capital City Guards,
' a local colored militia company, j
| wh'ch engaged in riotous conduct (]
I on the state capitol grounds on ^
j Labor Day. \1 It Cooper, sec re
i tary of stute, has forbidden color- j
ed militia to use the capitol c
grounds hereafter. In the police j
court the rioting members wove I;
find $40, and some double that ^
amount, for contempt. This is
the best drilled company in the
i si mo, mine or DiacK, and lias
i
been largely suppt rted by white
people. Hut stringent methods
were deemed necessary to avoid
another clash. Theaffuirof Labor
Day was caused by two young ^
white men driving into the ranks
of the negro company, and enrai;ing
its mem tiers, who were not B
justified to the extent thoy went, r
clubbing inoffensive people with ^
riffes. Tho negroes have 10,000 e
rounds of ammunition, which they *
bought themselves. (
