of the great bard, was ever given, than that
which transpired in the municipal police
court yesterday morning, where a family of
intelligent, industrious and orphaned girls
were forced to encounter the most ground
less inslnuations of dishonor, preferred for
sooth, by creature whose previous history
is smirched by countless numbers of the
most despicable transgressions.
There entered the police court few days
since man named Anton Anderson, who,
in villainous English, requested that war
rant be sworn out for the arrest of the Daly
family on the charge of disorderly conduct,
which was further fortified by insinuations
of the most heinous character. In swearing
out the papers, it was alleged by the com
plainant that the Days, six girls and q
brother, occupied portion of house owned
and partially occupied by him, situated at
No. IS Mt. Airy street, and that the proceed
ings of the family aforesaid were of such a
disgraceful character as to make longer ex-
istence in the same house a matter of i'm
possibility.
The case came before Judge Flint yester-
day morning. the hearing occupying nearly
three hours, during which it was demon
strated that in preparing the charges the
complainant was actuated by the most
despicable motives, and that instead of being
she injured innocent, he was better qualified
to enact the role Of peace destroyer and
tcou ndrel. The witnesses for the prosecu-
tion, six or eight in number, testified by
means of an interpreter, to the fact of the
Days having an organ, upon which they
we're wont to commit the objectionable sin
of relieving the hours between nightfall
and bedtime by the production of
instrumental music, the enormity of the Of
Tense being aggravated by the young man,
whose custom it was to render an accompani-
ment with the violin. In addition to this
enormity the Days we're actually charged
with the horrible crime of being addicted to
dancing, which inclination was indulged
once Or twice week. Mary DAILY, the Oldest
girl, first disclosed the real motives that had
actuated the complaint. The witness testi-
fed to having been grossly insulted by the
plaintiff, who endeavored to force her into
his room. The young lady repelled the vile
insult, when Anderson ordered them to leave
the house, remarking that if she wouldn't
come into his room she mustleave the house.
| The brother would have vigorously resent
ed the insult, had it not been for the restrain
ing influence of his sisters, who were deter
mined to leave the house when their month
was up, on the Goth inst, the rent having
been paid in advance. It may be stated en-
pdssG1at, that three of the DAILY girls are en-
ployed as seamstresses. while the brother is
the owner of team with which he makes 8
successful livelihood. in addition to which
they have an income of over $500 per quar-
ter, being the proceeds of an estate left by
their parents in Dakota county. The re-
naming defendants, Lizzie, Julia and Thorn
as, elected greatsympathy by their testimony
which was further strengthened by the pres
ence in court of Maggie, Allie, and Aggi
DAILY, three beautiful school children, who's
neat attire and intelligent faces bore evidenc
of the most thorough and sisterly attention
In summing up the case, the court said
with emotion, that he should do as he shoult
like his children to be done by, in case the,
were bereft of their natural protectors ant
had the misfortune to be assailed by sucl
groundless and willful persecution. Th
good name and honor of the young ladie
had been established by over a doze,
reputable citizens, in whose testimon,
he could repose the utmost confidence
Turning around, his honor then addresse,
the young ladies, expressing confidence il
their virtue and sympathy with their out
ragged and insulted sense of honor, conclud
ing by advising them to remove from th
nelghborhood as soon as possible.
