WINTS NEE CHILDREN.
A Divorced Mothers Plea for Her BABES
--The COURT Thinks She Is Unfit.

nc court ln1nkh SnN Is UNIT
The divorce case of John b. Dougherty
VS.. Annie h. Dougherty, which has been
pending in the superior court for several
years, was settled on Friday afternoon
when the court handed down decree
granting the petitioner an absolute divorce
and the custody of his six children. The
decree was unanimous. During the
tendency of the suit the petitioner
paid liberal alimony for the support of his
family. Mr.. Dougherty is civil engi-
neer, stationed at Baranquilla, South
America where he will remove his chill.
dren, having already erected comfortable
home there.
II. II. Ward, attorney for Mrs. Dough-
erty in the Dougherty versus Dollgherty
divorce case stated to the court Nthat
while the petitioner, John u. Dougherty,
Dougherty, had asked for the custody of
his children, the commissioner did not
make any such recommendation. 1t was
the custom that motion be made for the
disposition of the children, and he desired
that some of them be left in the custody of
the mother.
Chief Justice Comegys remarked that
although the decree had given the children
into the custody of the father, II was not
final. Then he asked, "Doyou think that an
adulteress should have charge of children?
DO you want the court TO pass upon
that?"
MIR. Ward said that the argument for
placing some of the children in the care
of the mother was that she had had all
the care in bringing them ur. The motion
was denied.
The court allowed the counsel $40 in
addition as expenses to the fee of $3.50.
The Little Dougherty Wards.
II. NJ. Dougherty of Boston and Mr..
and Mrs. w. II. Reel of Pittsburg, are
at the Central Hotel. Mr.. Dougherty is
a brother of Charles b. Dougherty and
Mrs. Reel his sister They are here to
take possession of the children of their
brother, awarded him in the divorce
proceedings against his wife last week.
1t is their intention to take the little
ones to Pittsburg, where they will be
cared for by their aunt. Mrs. Dough-
erty, it is understood, makes no resist
ance against the decree of the court.
John B. Dougherty, the plaintiff, is ex-
pected home from South America soon.
