The Paternity of Child Decided.

,JANEsv111E. Wis, Dec. 19.-[Inde-
pendent. IA case said to be without a
parallel in the courts of the world, has
been decided by Judge Bennett in the
circuit court. Property worth $3.50, 900
of child was involved, and the ques.
ton raised was that of paternity.
Leila Hurd Ingle was divorced from
Andrew Ingle, of Fulton, Nov. Is, 1889.
She married Alexander Shuman Feb.
10, 1890. and July 8, 1890 daughter,
Sarah, was born. By the death Of
Sarah's grandfather, Silas Hurd, and
the subsequent death of her mother, the
child became heir to $50, 900. shuman,
insisting that she was his child, took
charge of the property.
Not for o year afterward did InRel
have an idea that the girl was his
daughter. He was led to believe that
she was born nine mouths after the
second marriage instead of five months.
When Sarah's youngest sister died,
however, the age that was put upon the
coffin plate showed that Sarah, being
just year older, was four months older
than was supposed. She would thus be
daughter of Ingle under the law cover.
ing the paternity of children born with.
in eight months after divorce, But
under another law, which declares ali
children born in lawful wedlock to be-
fruits of that union, she would be the
daughter of Shuman.
The case would have gone to the Jury
today, but after hearing the evidence
Judge Bennett took the case into his
own hands, and ruled for the plaintiff.
He held Ingle to be the father of the
child, thus putting the care of her pro-
perty into the hands of her guardian,
John Hurd. The remarkable resem.
blance of Sarah to Mr.. Ingle is spoken
of as strong factor in the case,

started by man who sought to commit
suicide by burning himself, and also
destroy his property is not credited.
The facts appear to be that the man
Schmidt, who met his death in the blaze,
was merely victim of a drunken
stupor. An overheated stove ignited
the gas in the store where he slept, and
the flames spread too rapidly to permit
of his rescue. Editor Ellis, Landlord
Vinkel and another man attempted to
carry Schmidt out OF the building, but
Vinkle became exhausted and the other
gentlemen were compelled to give him
their attention. The confsgration was
great blow to Cakes, the best portion
of the town being destroyed.
