Washington has not been afflicted with very much severe weather so far this s~a- son, but now there is every reason to be- Neve that winter is on his way here, ready to make things lively for every one—except for the poor, and for them there will only be more cold and suffering. Winter is a Uttle late in coming, but when it joes get here it will last for six weeks. ‘Why s0 sure of this? For the reason that today is ground-hog day,and when weather- wise people got up this morning, the first they did was to look at the sky to see what | ! the prospects were for a sunny day. Every one, except small children born since the 2a of last February, is expected to know that on ground-hog day that curious quad- ruped issues from his permanent winter home and squints about to see what the signs of promise are. If he sees his own shadow cast upon the ground he knows that there will surely be six weeks more of winter, and he crawls back intc his hole to take another good long nap before he comes out for his summer campaign. Today was an indeal one for the ground hog to make his appearance on earth—that is, providing you like winter weather. When the specimen out at the Zoo got up this morn! he looked at his calendar and, noting the day of the month, yawned and stretched himself, and then crawled out into the light of outer day. At first his dulled eyes were almost blinded by the powerful light, and he decided to go back to his com- fortable bed without any more delay. Then, as his eyes got more accustomed to looking at things, he o! that what he had at first mistaken for sunlight was only early dawn, and that the sun, which had not had as long a sleep as he had, was not yet out of bed. About this time one of Keeper Black- | burn’s assistants brought him his coffee and rolls, after which Mr. Hog lighted a cigarette and threw himself back in an) easy chair, puffing leisurely away and anx- ious only to see what the day would) bring forth. It was not long in coming. Breaking through the early morning mist the sun began to pour down in royal radi- ance upon him, and from that time on there was not a moment in the day when the poor worried ground hog could get away from his shadow. No matter which way he turned nor where he went that shadow was with him, like a Nemesis, and the “d—d spot would not out.” »So he took to the woods, not to be seen again for six weeks. And great is the joy among the coal men and the plumbers. epee RESTORED TO THE MOTHER. The Decisio: J Hagner in the Hendricks Case. “And may this little child lead them,” exclaimed Judge Hagner this morning, as he concluded his decision in the suit of Mrs. Mary L. Hendricks against her husband, ex-Policeman Wm. T. Hendricks, for the possession of their three-year-old child, Randolph. The decision gave the little one to its mother. Judge Hagner delivered an oral opinion of some length, in which he commented upon the evidence submitted on both .sides during the past few days, declaring that the allegations of improper conduct and habits made against Mrs. Hendricks by her husband had been proven to be utterly groundless. On the other hand, the court held that the father of the child had: been shown to be a cruel, intemperate husba=d, and a father unfit to have the custody of his child. Hendricks, Tac Judge Hagner, had six times been found guilty by the police authorities of charges preferred against him as an officer, and had receatly been dismissed from the force. In addition to that, said the court, he had been fined $50, recently, in the Police Court, for com- mitting an assault upon his wife while she ‘was not recovered from a confinement. The Father's Love. It might be true, said Judge Hagner, that the father loved the little boy; if he did it was greatly to his credit, although no more than he should do; but the mother also loved the little one, and perhaps more than tan could comprehend. Yet it was un- reasonable to say that because such a father loved the child he should, because of that one fact, retain the little one in his custody. It had been charged, explained the judge, that the mother had been forced to depend upon the charity of her father. “But,” asked the court, addressing Hen- dricks, “who but you forced the poor wom- an to seek such a refuge?” In conclusion Judge Hagner decided that he was clearly of the opinion that not one of the charges preferred against Mrs. Hen- dricks had been proven, and explained that he would place the little one in the care and custody of its mother, the child not to be taken out of the jurisdiction of the court, and to be allowed to be visited by its father. the court’s remarks the little During |z,|one had nestled in its father’s lap on one side of the table between counsel, while the mother sat just opposite, beside her counsel. As the judge conciuded, Mr. Fit- man, counsel for Mrs. Hendricks, asked the ecurt to direct the father to hand the child over to its mother. This Hendricks did, and springing toward her child the poor mother clasped the little one to her bosom, showering it with kisses, and sobbing in _|her joy. She was at once surrounded by her relatives and friends, while many in the crowded little court room pressed for- ward and congratulated her. Mr. Moulton, counsel for Hendricks, stated to the court that his client was willing to provide a home for his wife and children. “I hope he will,” remarked Judge Hagner, “and may this little child lead them!” Neither Mrs. Hendricks nor her counsel her arms she proudly and lovingly carried him off, while the father surrounded by sev- eral male friends, watched it all in silence. The little fellow, oe by the confusion, cried for his father as he was triumphantly borne away. ———_ MRS. SHEA ARRESTED. While Her Husband is Still in Con- John Shea, the first liquor man given a sentence of absolute imprisonment under | LEE. the new liquor law, is still in the work house serving his sentence. The impris- onment portion of his sentence expired some days ago, but there is now a fine of $500 or six months’ imprisonment standing against him. Application for pardon has been made and Shea is remaining in the work house in hopes of saving his money. While he is spending his time in prison the police claim that his wife, Marla Shea, is conducting business at the old stand on Maryland avenue. Sergeant Daley was in- strumental in uring evidence in the case and yesterday he swore out a warrant, Mr. Thomas, attorney for the District, sign- Ing the information in the case. Armed with this warrant of arrest, the sergeant, with a squad of officers, called at the Shea residence last night and found Mrs. Shea at home. Her daughter was there with her, but neither of her sons was at home at the time. Instead of the usual resistance and fight, Mrs. Shea submitted quietly to arrest and went with the officers to the police station. Later in the night bond in the sum of $1,000 was given for her appearance in the Police Court and she was no longer retained. At the house the officers did not find a bar room running openly and above board. as they had anticipated, although a small amount of bottled beer and stronger liquors was found in the house. Lawyer C. Maurice Smith appeared in ccurt this morning as counsel for Mrs. Shea and demanded a jury trial. The case was therefore continued. ——-—.—__ Tramways in Cairo, Egypt. F. C.
