Fathers Rights Not Absolute.

CHILD TO BE LEFT WITH ITS MOTHER WHEN
SHE DOES THE MOST FOR 1T.
Judge Daniels gave decision yesterday in
the contest upon habeaS corpus between JeSu
Louis Prod and his wife Marie M. Prod, Tor
the custody OF their son, Jules Aime PROD
eleven years old. The husband claims that
the wife frequentS diSreputable society ana is
unfit to have the care of the child. She on
the other hand says that Prod after abusing
and maltreating her for years abandoned her
and the boy and went to France. He recently
returned to this country, and failing to get
the child instituted these proceedings for that
purpose. Judge Daniels In his decision SAYS:
while the fathers right to the custody and
control OF his infant children is, under Ordi-
nary circumstances, assured by the law still
II is not absolute in its nature, but has been
subOrdinated in cases of dispute TO the impor-
tant determination of what seems to be best
for the ultimate good of the child. That is
the leading consideration to be followed when
the ability OF either parent is drawn in con-
troversy. In this case each party has charged
The other with grave marital misconduct
which, If true, would render each an improper
custodian of the child. But the preponder-
ance OF the evidence upon this subject as
well as the prOba biliteS indicated by the gem
teel appearance of the child, are directly in.
favor Of the mother. She is shown to be
worthy, industrious woman, sustaining herself
and the Child in a reputable manner, wholly
Inconsistent with the truth of the charges
made against her by her husband. She is
doing more and better for him than can pos.
Sibly be expected from any efforts his father
can possibly make. His own inclination and
best instincts and those also of the public
Will, in the end, be promoted by refusing the
Application OF the relatOr and leaving the
child in the custody of his mother; and an or
