Last week Emma Scranton procured
the issuing of q writ of habeas corpus
by Judge Reed against e, P. Scranton
to obtain the custody of Orc Daisy,
the infant daughter of the parties, aged
about three and a-half years. Several
months ago Mrs. Scranton obtained a
decree in q DeKalb county (Indiana)
court divorcing her from her husband
and granting her the custody of their
child, but before the granting Of the
decree Mr.. Scranton obtained possess
ion of the child and brought it to Ra-
VIENNA. After hearing the testimony
and arguments of the attorneys Judge
Reed decided, on Thursday, that the
mother is entitled to the custody and
care Of the child. During the argu-
ment of the case bitter controversy
occurred between the attorneys which
beggars description. They called each
other liars and other like pet names,
till midnight, when the Court becom-
ing weary of the racket sent for the
Sheriff to arrest the belligerents, and
finally succeensd in restoring compar-
ative quiet.

A BAD SMAsH.-Last Friday the
workmen arrived from Cleveland to
set the plate glass in the front of the
Second National Bank and Richard
son & Sons hardware store, Phenix
Block. The box containing the glass
was brought from the depot and open
ed, when it was found that the two
large lights, each 1l6x60 inches and
three-eights of an inch thick, were
smashed to atoms. The breakage was
doub tless caused by the box, which
had been loaded on edge, falling fiat
upon the car bottom. The three, side
lights were not broken. The damage
to say nothing of vexatious delays
will amount to about 5000. Who
will have to foot the bill is matter
for future determination, but the Banh
will not be the loser.

gest tow that has been taken up the river for

lars and cents, and doa't you forget it.
A hoater was picked up at Helena Tues
| day. 1t proved to be white man, and had
evidently been in the water some weeks, as
the face was entirely gone and the clothing

his pockets a pair of cuff buttons and a
rabbit foot were the only articles found.

The difference in cost between narrow
and standard guage railroad is 3 10 per
mt in favor OF the narrow roads.
The termini of the west end of the San
Antonio and Of the Southern Pacific are now
about IVA miles apart. This gap will be
covered on or before next September, thus
making a continuous line through TO New
Orleans.
The franchises, rights of way, surveys,
etc, Of the New Orleans, Red River and
Texas Railroad Company have been trans
ferred to the Mississippi Valley Railroad
Company, the consideration being $4,000
worth of stock in the latter company. The

DRY GOODS

New YORK, April 1S.-The export OF
cotton goods for the week amounted to 1898
packages, and since January /, 1882, to a
total of 4S, 161 packages In wide printed
fabrics the demand for choice styles is very
good, and Cocheco lawns and foulards are
in active distribution. Prints are being dis
tributed with much regularity, looking to a
rapid reduction of stocks, while all special
ties are sold to arrive. Sheeting prints, and
also white ground fancies, are il improved
request. American dress silks, also hand
kerchief-ribbons and other silk fabrics are in
good request and stocks unimportant. In
cotton goods invisible transactions are of
more importance than open sales, and con-
siderable business has been laid out for the
near future. Wooden goods quiet. but de-
liveries are of much steadiness, and the gen.
eral trade of moderate proportions.
