New \ ork courtroom, the other dav, the
spectators OF which could not but be
moved to pity. 1t appeared that Il poor
widow named Mrs Sharkey put out her
only Child 10 nurse about four wears ago
with German woman in that city. Mrs.
Sharkey herself earned 2 living by nurs-
NC the sick, and was unable to take care
OF the child. The German woman became
attached to the child, however, and re-
fused to surrender it when asked to do so
by the mother, setting up an alleged lien
Tor few weeks unpaid board of the child.
Mrs. Sharkey then applied to the Courts
Tor redress, and obtained a writ of habeas

ing She made further complaint. and
Judge Donohue issued a peremptory order
requiring the production of the child in

The child, each striving to take it from
the other, Both women screamed, and

but not without considerable screaming
The Court officers, as soon as they recoy-

the women, and the mother hurriedlv
rushed from the court room with her
child. The German woman was so much
overcome that she fell into a fit Of hyster-
lcs and had to be carried out. The scene
drew together very large crowd and at
tracted general attention, many rushing
out from other court rooms to discover
the cause Of the noise and alteration,
which was plainly audible in the streets
about the Court House.
