COOED AS DESTINY WAS BEING DECIDED

Little Daughter of Mrs. Merle Campbell the Object of Court Action. MOTHER LOVE IS SHOWN. LITTLE TOT CLASPED TIGHTLY IN ITS MOTHER'S ARMS FOR FEAR SOME ONE ELSE WOULD TRY TO SECURE POSSESSION. Clinging tightly to her little two-year-old babe, upon the instructions of her attorney, for ft;tr that Home attempt might be made, to relieve her of the burden, Mrs. Merle Campbell left the circuit court room this: morning. The ehlld is her own and there are others who desire Its possession against, the father's will. The court had just restored the babe to her custody and the mother appeared greatly pleased by the turn in the tide of affairs that gave Iter back her own. The story is one of human interest, but not exceptionally rare in some of Its particulars. William Iandwher is the father of the child, but he and the mother are not married. When proceedings were instituted against Iandwher he was adjudged to le the father of the babe and was ordered to pay the mother $4.V) for its support. Of this sum $73 was to be paid in cash ami S.V) per year thereafter until the entire amount was paid. Mrs. Campbell represented to the court that her life has rot. been one of ease, and she was not able to care for the child as she had no home of her own. She made arrangements with Mr. and Mrs. George Bates, of north of the city to care for the baby and she was to pay them $l.o per week for its support. Sho had failed in her paymen ta and for that reason the case was brought into court today. Hates brought proceedings to secure an order from the court whereby Land w her would be instructed to pay the money Into court instead of to Mrs. Campbell, and Bates was to be paid in turn by the court. Mrs. Campbell opposed the arrangement and her mother love finally induced tho judge to make an arrangement out of court. Judge Fox prevailed upon Mr. and Mrs. Kates to accept $1 pel week for their services to trje child for the past year. Mrs. Campbell had failed to make these payments. Mrs. Bates wished the court to grant tier the custody of the child, but the mother opiiosed. In tears she told the Court, bhe is earning from S. to (Weekly by doing washings and pleaded for an opportunity to prove her ability to give the child a home. The court asserted there was no habeas corpus proceedings involved and expressed a (Willingness to permit Mrs. Campbell the chance. She was told that if it be found she is unable to care for the babe, some other arrangement will nave to be made. I he child is a bright, blue-eyed girl and fondled its mother's face and cooed while the at torneys and judge wore deciding its destiny, unaware of w hat its fate would be. Here's a Way to Save. Don't measure the cost of your weekly wash bill by what you pay tho washerwoman. If she uses poor materials you must add the cost of the garments aa well. Always use a pure poap. Easy Task soap is always safe, and can be used without boiling if you wish. Only 5c everywhere. WIFE WAS UNTRUE Therefore Warren W. Lee Filed Suit for Legal Separation. UNUSUAL COMPLICATION. Before the case of Warren W. Lee vs ; Myrtle Lee for divorce could be calico ' In circuit court today, it was necessary i for 'Squire Abbott to dismiss one case of the same title. The squire had filed two complaints in the same case and the sheriff had served papers twice. All the legal technicalities may not j have heen disposed of in just the prop-j er manner, but when it came time for the trial and the 'Squire was told by the court ho was a little "mixed," Mr. j Abbott made haste to get rid of one ; complaint. I The divorce applicant is ' a young : men, so young that the attaches of the ! court and attorneys smikd when he: took the witness stand. He said his i wife had left him and by her own statementa has devoted her life to a career ; of shame. The witness stated his wife told, him tihe could' not live with him' and be faithful, and for that reason 1 ehe left. She was reported as having been In trouble while an inmate of an j Anderson resort, and was said to be at Marion now. Owen Meredith. Owen Meredith rested his fame on "Lueiie," but could never be induced to contradict the charges of plagiarism that were made In connection with It. "What's the use?" he said. Tf I deny them people will believe there is something in them. If I say nothing at all the book will be read and the charges ignored or forgotten.' He was proud of the poem, and in the circle of his intimate friends often quoted passages from it and described the circumstance under which these lines were written.

BECAME TIRED Of LIVING WITH WIFE

Then John Sullivan Left the Precincts of the Home He Abused. PROSECUTOR SCORES MAN. SAYS THAT WIFE SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT EARLIER ACTION FOR DIVORCE AS MAN OUGHT TO EE IN THE PENITENTIARY. ".Mrs. Sullivan, the only mistake I you have made was in not filing an affidavit against this man before t "no j statute of limitation expired. He i ought to be in the penitentiary.'' i It was in t'tis manner that Prosecutor Jessup addressed Mrs. Mary Ann i Sullivan in the circuit court room to-! day. The man referred to is John Sul- i li van. a laborer, and he was within I ten feet of the state's attorney when: the statement was made. The prose-! cut or meant that if too long a tiniej had not elapsed. Sullivan could have ! been charged with wife desertion and; given a term in state's prison. The j woman had brought suit tor divorce, i It was granted by the court without hesitation and her petition asking res-, (oration of her former name Mary Ann ; Shelley, was approved, also. j Mrh. Sullivan is a reputable woman; who resides in the Xorth end. .Sall.1van was her second husband and she told the court he had been cruel ynd abusive in hi.j treatment of her and the children. At one iini" his anger became so great he ordered them to leave the bouse under penalty of having the "officials" put them out. The woman was keeping bouse, when she and Sullivan were married in 1902 and he went into tje home she had maintained and immediately became its sovereign, lie was a friend of John Harleycorn it. was said and the acquaintance did not benefit Sullivan. The wife told how the husband had made use of epithets in discussing matters, much lo her own horror and dismay. Sullivan was put, on the stand and asked what he had to say. li was not much but enough to call forth the declaration of the prosecutor. Sullivan said: "Well, wo just agreed to disagreed, Mr. Jessup.' "What do you mean by thai?" lie was asked. "Did you just get tired of living with her? Didn't you want to support her any longer?" To these questions I he man replied he "just got tired and quit." TAFT THE CHOICE ON FIRST BALLOT q Predicts President Roosevelt, War Secretary's Friend. ENOUGH VOTES BEFORE.

Catcher Fogle and Pitchers Hull and Guhl. have been pitched over the breastworks with requests to elim-j inate their presences from the vicini- ' ty of Huntington as quickly as possi- ; ble. Manager Jack Smith is an easy going sort of a fellow and he has stood for actions on the part of some of the ; players that, no other manager in the, circuit would put up with. However, when the four men mentioned refused yesterday to recognize his authority,; Jack got peeved and decided to start a little yard cleaning day of his own. He ' asked Fogle if he was satisfied. The! big catcher insolently replied that he; was not. "Then pack your clothes and meander," said Smith. Fowler, Guhl and Hull also stated that they were not satisfied with the way Smith was managing the affairs of the club, but that they would stand for it because of financial reasons. "Oh no. you will not. You fellows grab your baggage and follow in the walo don't want any player.-, who have a knock com in of Og'.f m this camp Skeedadle - git." And they got.

EXCITING CHASE OF HORSE THIEF

Stolen Outfit Driven Through Hollandsburg on a Run, Officers Following. MAY BE IN CUSTODY. MAN DRIVING STOLEN ANIMAL FAST LOSING GROUND WHEN LAST SEEN, AND IT IS THOUGHT HE HAS BEEN CAPTURED. The local police were car! this morning asked to assist in the capture of a daring horse t hit f. who at that time wits the quarry in an exciting chase through the country north, of this city. The appeal for assistance ct.me from the authorities at Parker, lie: Chief Bailey instrtnted a'l Ins officers to ktep a sharp lookout for the ihitf as it was thought the man was leaded directly for Richmond. However, about s o'clock Chief ltailey received a long distance telephone message that the thief, after Hearing Richmond, had changed his course and that at o'clock he was seen to pass Through Hollandsburg. O. driving at breakneck speed. The man was hotly purs tied hy two Parker officers in a road wagon. ! As the thief passed through Hollands burg, his pursuers could be seen further down the road driving their horse under the whip. Their commands to The thief to halt could be heard distinctly. Ten minutes after The Thief passed Through Hollandsburg. the two pursuers passed through The little town in a cloud of dust. It was the most exciting scene that Hollandsburg has witnessed for many months. It is probable that the thief and the stolen property have been captured by this time because when the chase Jed through Hollandsburg, it could be seen that the stolen horse was almost wind ed, while the animal the officers were driving was apparently fresh and was gaining at almost every step on the quarry. The stolen horse was the property of Otto Pond of Parker and was taken from his barn early this morninig. The animal is a three year old sorrel mare fourteen hands high with a while streak in the face and a white hind leg. BISMARCK'S ANGER. The Incident That Made Certain the Franco-German War.

This vast territory was explored by Captains Lwls and Clark, whos i reports were popular reading for our grandfathers, but the extent and rslue , of this distant possession wera T wj slightly understood, and no attempt at colonization was made save the establishment of the fur trading station of Astoria lu 1811. j Strangely enough, England, too, ! claimed this same territory by virtue of rights ceded to it by Russia and also by the Vancouver surveys of 1792. The Hudson's Bay company established a number of trading posts and Ailed the country with adventurous fur traders. So here was a vast territory, aa large as New England and the state of Indiana combined, which seemed to be without any positive ownership. But for Marcus Whitman It would have been lost to the Union. It was in 1836 that Dr. Whitman and a man of the name of Spaulding. with their young wies. the first white women that ever crossed the Rocky mountains, entered the ralley of tha Columbia and founded a mission of the American board. They bad been sent out to Christian! the Indians, but Whitman was also to build a state. He was at this time thirty-five years old. In his journeys to and fro for the mission he soon saw tha vast possibilities of the country, and he saw, too, that the English were already apprised of this and were rapidly pouring into the territory. Under the terms cf the treaties of 1818 and 1S2S It was ! the tacit belief that whichever nation1 allty settled and organized the splen- ' did territory would hold it If Kngland and the English fur traders bad I been successful in their plans, tha English into the territory, and Dr. Whitman took the alarm. There was no time to lose. The authorities at Washington must bo warned. Hastily bidding his wife adieu. Dr. Whitman started on his hazardous Journey. Tho perils, hardships and delays ha encountered on the way we can but faintly conceive. Ilia feet were fro sen. he nearly starved, and once be cam very near to losing hbs life. He kept pushing right on, and at the end of Ave terrible months he reached Waahgon. His statement was a revelation to the administration. Previous to Whitman's visit it was the general idea In congress that Oregon was a barren, worthless country, fit only for wild beasts and wild men. He opened the eyes of the government to the limitless wealth and splendid resources of that western territory. He told them of its great rivers and fertile valleys. Its mountains covered with forests ami its mines filled with precious treasures. He showed them that it was a country worth keeping and that It must not fall into the bands of the English. He spoke as a man lntpired, and his words were heeded. What followed the oreanization of companies of emigrants, the rapid settlement of the territory and the treaty made with Great Britain la 1S45 by which the forty-ninth parallel was made the boundary lice west of the Rocky mouLtains are matters of hlatory. The foresight and the heroism of one roan and bis galiant ride had saved three great states to the U talon. Omaha World-Herald. Two Ways.
