that the question of loyalty or dlsloy-

Her Sad Story.
A LIVING, BREATHING DOLL.

four pound girl baby no bigger than doll
was born 10 lair haired-girl OF Ii in a modest
little home at Silver and Gould streets, on
Wednesday. Two days have gone by and the
baby is apparently strong and lively as the
usual ten-pounder The little baby is just
tea cup would entirely cover its little
head. Its arms about three
inches long and its tiny fists would lose them
selves in a thimbe. II is perfectly formed, in
good proportion, and its fingers and toes are
tipped with shiny little nails scarcely larger
than pin heads, while its head is covered with
wealth OF golden dowuy hair. The grand
mother sits in one room of the little cottage
holding the baby, first in one hand and then in
the other, while the young mother lies in the
bedroom adjoining.
The mother is fair-haired, pretty lass, only IA
years old, and her story is a sad one.
Mrs. Dolan, the grandmother, has by her
energy succeeded III buying house and LOT, the
one in which she lives Since her separation
from her husband, she has supported herself
ana daughter Florence by taking in washing.
Less than year ago one of her customers was
teamster working for the city, named Perry
White Florence used 10 deliver the washing
to White, and in that way be-
came acquainted with him Some
times she would have to go TO the stable in the
woods TO get her pay. On one OF these occasions
White took advantage of the girl She did not
tell her mother the terrible secret for several
months, and when she did the mother was in
dignant and demanded that White should at
once marry her daughter. He refused at first,
but through a friend of Mrs. Dolan he was
brought to time and the ceremony was per-
formed on June last. Two days later he left
the city. His parents live at Walla Walla,
and are said 20 be well fixed. The young
mother says that since she married him she has
heard that he committed similar deed at
"aila Walla and fled from the vengeance OF
relatives.
Mrs. Dolan took sick about ten days ago and
Florence heroically attended to her wants,
although herself in need of care She worked
too hard and broke down on Tuesday and was
forced TO go to bed As there was no one else to
take care OF her daughter, Mrs. Dolan got I'D
from her sick bed and took such care of
her daughter as she could. Doctors were
called, but as the sick ones had no money the
first two doctors declined the case. Finally, DR..
Palmer came. and he is still attending.
The house in which the wee baby was born is
about five blocks north OF Madison street at
its intersection with Fourteenth, and is about
four blocks northeast OF Grace hospital.

CAPTAIN JONES DISCHARGED.
COurt-Martial Declares 1t Had Nc
Jurisdiction Over Him.

Court Martial Declares 1t Had No
Jurisdiction Over Him.
The Jones courtmartial, which held session
at regimental headquarters yesterday afternoon,
came to rather unexpected termination
The court decided that il had no jurisdiction to
try Captain Jones for the ofense alleged, and
adjourned sine die.
The court was composed of Lieutenant Colonel
Joseph Green, Captain James A. Hatfield Cap
tain f. 5 Ingraham, Captain L. 5 Booth. Adj
jutant Chares Espiin, jr., Lieutenant W. II.
Gorham. as judge-adyocate, and Quartermaster-
Sergeant Z. ;. Fisher, orderly.
The court Immediately went into executive
session, and the question OF jurisdiction was
dismissed. The technical points presented by
the judge advocate were that the National
Guard of Washington followed the articles OF
war OF the United states army. Article So pro-
yides that regular and garrison courts-martial
OF field officers detailed TO try offenders shall not
have the power to try capital offenses or COM
missioned officers, or to ilfict fine exceeding
one months pay or Imprisonment, or put to
haTd labor any non-commls sioned officer or SOL
der for longer time than one month, the
special point made under this being that Cap
tain Jones could only be legally tried by gem
eral court-martial ana not by special one An
other point made was that the members OF the
court had been changed from those originally
detailed, and that the defendant had received
no notification.
Captain Jones had no hearing whatever. The
adjournment of the court, upon the declaration
OF no jurisdiction. has the effect of discharging
the defendant from custody, and OF renstating
him as commander OF his company
Captain Jones stated yesterday after the result
OF the session was made known, that the techni-
cal temporary termination of the case was dis
appointment to him, that he had appeared be-
fore the court ready to meet the charges upon
their merits, and that he was prepared at any
time to present his defense.
