The Contest Brings Out Serions Charges Agaiust All Concerned. Mother and Daughter at Logger- heads. An interesting habeas corpus case was declded by Judge Aylesworth, of the su- perior court, yesterday. The ocase was from Clay, Harrlton county, and the artlos concerned were relatives, the pe. ner being a grandmother who wanted ession of her granddaughter, and who olalmed that her own daughter, the mother of the child, was anythlng but pure, while the daughter claimed the same sad fact about her own mother, The petttioner was Mrs, Nancy Cerfing, and in her etatement she claiws that she ought to have possessiou of her granddaughter, a girl twelve years of age, who has, she claims, llved with her nearly all the time since her baby- hood, and has been cared for and sup- ported by her. She claims that the child s now being held in unlawfal restralnt by Ellas Pegg, who has been lewdly co- habiting with Mrs. Margaret Asher, the mother of the little girl. It s claimed that Pegg took the child away from her grandmother on the 28th of May Ilast, his purpose being to suppress her evidence in an actlon pending sgainat Pegg and Mra. Asher on a charge of lewdness. As Pegg 1a no relation to the little glrl, the grandmother wanted the court to make him glve up possession of the child, and farther set up the claim that the mother of the girl is not a fit person, morally or financlally to have charge of her. The other side of the case mas a denial of the charge that Mr. Pegg and Mrs. Asher were unduly Intlmate. nled that he had the ¢ child, and he made counter-charges against Cerfilng, claiming that she was a woman of bad repute, and not a fit per- son to have the chlld. In the hearing of the case the judge thought tne evidence did not show that Pegg had taken the child, or that he had her. that the chiid was taken away from the grandmother’s house by the mother, and that the only connection that Pegg had with the matter was that he engaged the team for the woman to go after the child. The case was therefore dlsmiased, e ——— A CHAIN OF EVIDENCE. It Resulted in Convicting the Presi- dent of the Y, M, C, 4, of Larceny. Yesterday afternoon there was a draw- Ing card in Justice Fraluey’s court, it b.ing the trlal ¢f Dr. Montgomery on the charge of petit larceny. The promi- nence of the doctor, and his position as president of the yonng men’s chrlstian association, and as one of the leaders in the prohibltory movement, created special interest in the crowd, snd there was evi- dent a feellng among many of the ungod- ly that he should be punished whether or no. The testimony was about as out- lined in yesterday’s BEE, there being no dispute about the fact that the doctor had possession of the girl's gold chaln, the controversy belng over the question as to whether he stole it, or whether he was legitimately holding the chain as security for his bill, he having been treating the girl. The doctor claimed that he had glven the girl credit for $10, and had told her that she could redeem the ch: at any time by paying the money. He explained that she was at the time out of her head and not expected to llve and he thought that somelone might steal the chafn, which was Iying on the stand, and 8o he took it. Afterwards one of the Overton boys, who were interested in the prosecution of the case, came to the doctor with a wrlitten order for the chain, but he would not give it up. The doctor claimed in court that he held the chain by virtue of a llen on account of professional services. The girl claimed that she did nct think that she would have to pay anything, as the doctor was running a free dispensary, and that in fact she did not crder the doctor, but being taken ill at ths Revere house, Mr. St. John, one of the proprietors, went for the doctor. Mr, St, John also testified that it was his understanding that the doctor was not to charge the girl anything, she being poor and without fiiends. The justice, in rindering his decision, remarked that he did not know of anylaw by which a physiclan could thus take a lien on a gold chain to secure his bill, and ¢tat he should have to find the doctor gullty, and he imposed a fine of $10 and costs, and placed the appeal bond 300, The doctor had not declded last even- ing whether he would appeal or not. He said ho wanted to wash his hands of the whole affuir, and denounced the prosecu- tion as mallc!ous and the decision unjust. Considering the prominence and reputa- tlon of the doctor 1t is a rather hard plnch to be thus placed on the records as gullly of larceny. s —— More Dimes anan wollars, The dimo museum seems to be in bad Juck, A short time ago one of the pre- prieters, Sanders, was mlsslng, and all sorts of rumors about him were flying in the air; and now the other proprietor, J. W. Palmer, has gone, leaving some mourniong creditors, It Is rald that he has gone to Minneapolis in company with two gentlemen named Tibbits and Wilscn, He left about $200 to be di- vided up among the creditors, and much more than that is due on salarles, H. H. Martens has taken the business, he being the owner ot the building, and this actlon belng necsesary as the rent was behind, He will contlnue torun the museum for a week or g0, and may find 1t to his advantage to ron .

It nowappears that before enterlng the employ of Mr. Melntire he was enpaged in soliciting orders for Mr., Samuel Tate, and that gentleman says that he fonnd Mason was collecting money and not turning it over to him. He therefore dlscharged him, and wrote the facts to Meson’s father, who is an attorney in Westfield, N, Y., and the latter wrote in return that he was not surprised, as he had been caused much trouble before by his son’s actlo) He wanted Mr. Tate to re the young man in his employ smal lary, and give him a chance t> square the matter up, but this request was not granted. It {s reported the young man in skipping out of town forgot or neglected to ettle his board blil with Mrs, Forterfield, the amount due belng about eighteen dollars. Mr. Tato {s thinking strongly of having him brought back here to answer a charge of embezzlement. if He 1s No safe Tackle, A eafo welghing 2,500 pounds was be ing taken up the stairs at No. 12 South Main street yesterday into the office of the Mutual life and accldent association, when some part of the tackling broke and the eafe fell crashing through the stairway, but fortunately injaring no one, —— Cobs at George Heaton's, (28 Broad- way. —— Cesrspools ana vaults cleaned Address, R. & K., Bek office.
