A CHILD MYsTERY.-Mary Ann Lulu Wilson,
four years old, was yesterday committed to the
care OF Henry Watson Children's Aid Society by
Justice Farlow, of the eastern police station, as
being without any proper person or guardian to
care for her. Maggie Wilson, who claims to be
the mother of the child was sent to Bayview on
the 29th Of october, for begging on the street.
She lived at No. 276 South Broadway, and was
said to be the sister of Jas. Tourney, who re-

only persistfng that she had lived In Richmond
with her mother on "Sheep'S HILL" and that
she recollected coming to Baltimore from Rich

were joined by Tourney on the way. Other
statements of the child went to indicate that
her parents had probably kept grocery store.
Laura Files was unable to care for the child
permanently. and reported its condition through

Mrs. Smiths Runaway Match.


FATHERS C0ACHNAN.
Vice Chancellor Van Fleet of Newark, yeSter-
day granted an order to reopen the divorce
suits between Bernard Smith and his wife Mary
The order was based partly on an affidavit OF
John W. Green that one OF Mr.. Smiths wit
nesses, named Blanchard, had asked him to
assist in getting Mrs Smith out OF the way
Other affidayitS allege that Blanchard had ad-
mitted that his testimony was false and that
Green had been offered money to give evidence
against Mrs. Smith. The parties TO the di-
vorce suit formerly lived in Ireland, Smith
being a coachman employed by his w1fe's pa
rents, who were well to do. Mrs. Smiths
and her brothers at school. She was left very
much to herself. The result was that she fell
In love with the c0achman. When her father
learned the facts he promptly discharged
Smith His daughter thereupon went with
Smith to Dublin to be married. On their arrival
license until he had been a resident OF the city
twenty-one days. They took lodgings and lived
very quietly until they had acquired a legal
residence, when the license was obtained
and they were married. They then came
10 this country and settled at Newark, where
they have lived for Is years. Smith keeping

the1r sister: For many years Mrs. Smith re-

year they sent her $3.50, with the information
mat they would give her no more money unless
she left her husband Since then they have not
lived happily, and finally they sued each other
LOT dlvorce. Differences as to religion are
alleged by Smith to have been a source of
trouble between himself and wife, while Mrs.
smith alleges that the cessation OF the remit
tanceS from her brothers has had a good deal to
do with their quarrel.-[NE Y. World. Nou. Z.
