Isn't the Law Wonderful!
A Belgian paper tells of a woman
living at Mons who Is denied a mar
riage license becuuse she does not
know her name, age. or birthplace and
therefore "has no legal existence." .
Tho enso Is annlngous to that of a
man named Mnbony who was hanged
some years ago. When the prison
physician pronounced him dead, the
body was cut down and delivered to
the relatives. Life was not extinct,
howover, nnd a few hours later tho
man was quite himself again. lie was
Bitot by a murderer some time after
ward, but the assassin could not bo
brought to Justice because, as tho
court said, "Mnbony was legally dead,
nnd therefore could not be killed sub
sequently by unybody."
