ANOTHER FIGHT FOR THE CUSTODY OF
CHILDREN. ......,
Last evening, j. W. Walters, who lives at
721 E. 7th street, appeared at the police
station and obtained writ for the arrest Of
VIM, Stoops, who lives at 712 W. 9th, upon
charge Of forcible entry of his house. It
appears that Stoops has not treated his
wife and children in humane manner, and
upon a hearing of the case last week, before
Esq. Frazer, the custody of the children was
given to the wife, who went to live with her
sister, Mrs. Walters, where they have re-
sided since.
Yesterday afternoon stoops appeared at
the house of Walters, and after attempting
to enter the premises by artifce, forced
open the door, which Mr.. Walters had
closed in his face, and going to the dining
room forcibly took his two children,
both girls, one seven and tho other
ten years Of age, and carried them away
leaving his wife and young babe at
the house. A writ was issued and the case
will appear before the Mayor this morning
Stoop first tried to get two friends In the
house and obtain the children by this means
but failing he resorted to breaking the
door In,

A PREACHER WHO COULD NOT PRAY IN
PEACE.
Quite novel case was heard at the
Mayors Court last evening. Rev. J. M.
Burdick, who, several years ago, married =
widow lady at Brandywine Summit Camp
meeting, brought suit against the son of
her former husband, for using abusive
language, and interrupting him at his
prayers. The Reverend gentleman made a
long statement, telling his troubles with the
young man, James Ingram, who It appears
has always disliked his step-father and look
ed upon him as an interloper. N "''|' u
His wife after short prayer for guidancs
from above, delivered aloud in Court, gave
history of family affairs, from the begin
ming to the present time, and concluded by
saying her husbands statement was false.
The young man then gave as his reason for
interrogating his step father, that his
prayer contained statements that were un-
true, and reflected on the family, and hs
simply told him that God would not an
swer such prayer. The Mayor, after par
TALLY listening to the long testimonies, dis
missed the case. 's So '-."-
