Alvaro Obregon, candidate for the Presi- | dency of Mexico, who apparently has | become the “man of the bour” in Mexico through the country’s new revolution. Villa, discussing the rev- elutionary leaders, joked and laughed about Obregon’s attions at the con- vention of Aguas Calientes which led to tl. selection of Carranza as Pres! dent of Mexico through a split of) revolutionary leaders.

Mme, Pierre Tartoue, wife of the artist, introduced the novelty. When she reached the ballroom, Mme.

The child learned to regard Mrs. Brown as her | mother, and Mrs. Brown worked as @ laundress to keep up a home. Later on, the real mother married a soldier who wants to adopt the child. But 80 great was the attach- ment between the child and Mrs. Brown that the real mother had te resort to a writ of habeas corpus. It was in his decision sustaining this writ that Justice Whitaker made the child herself the deciding factor. He pointed out that what really counted was not the child's wishes, but her best interests, and he predicted that the grief which the little girl must suffer now ultimately will give way to a greater happiness. Justice Whitaker said: “In 1916 Mrs. Robinson married a young man who imediately after the marriage joined the American Ex- peditionary Forces and went France, Before the marriage Mrs. tion her early misfortune and the illegiti-| expenditu to publican candidates orde Robinson informed her betrothed of begin here Monday Senate The MRS.

She was compelled to do so that the child might be taken care of, and she gave the child temporarily to her friend. Now, being amply able to support and care for the child, she desires her return. “The Court can only take into con- sideration the future welfare of the child.

"The testimony here,” said Justice Callaghan, “is that this old man was deceived by kindness.

Fonda and Edward R. Fonda, broth- ers, and Mra, Florence B. F. Fonda, alleged that Fonda carried into the Marriage License Bureau at Bor- ough Hall on June 28 and next stopped at the office’ of a lawyer, where the will was made out. Attorney James M. Faweett, broth- er of Supreme Court Justice Fawcett, testified to-day that when Fonda came to his office to sign his will he appeared to be in good physical condition. Tho attorney added that Fonda, a well educated man, had communicated with him on June 26 regarding the will, explaining {ts provisions in detail, and the docu- ment was ready for signature when Fonda reached the lawyer's office Charles 8. Hayes, No. 25 Bay Ridge Place, Brooklyn, also an attorney, testified to ‘the marriage ceremony, saying that Fonda appeared in good physical condition and did not even use a cane, Witnesses for Fonda's | relatives, who are suing to break the will, tes- tified that the old man was almost carried into the chapel where the marriage was performed.
