IT'S WELL TO BE A DOG.
1t Is Allowed Many Privileges Which
Are Forbid den to Male Bipeds.
Richmond Star.

Egypt never paid more reverential re-
specg TO its cat gods than Richmond does to
dogs. They own the city, and they have
many more privileges than are accorded
to men.
If man gets drunk, for-example, and
makes merry on the street, he is run into
the station house, and the next morning he
is arraigned before Justice John to an
swer the charge of disturbing the pubib,
bark and howl without being drunk at all
and TO make night hideous with his noise,
and no m an ever thinks of runnin & him in.
If man should secrete himself behind
q tree and rush out at passing horse and
jump up at the bit and howl at him until
the horse was frightened or provoked to
desperation. that man would be taken to
court to ans wer for his offense, But dogs do
that sort of thing every day and the law
takes no note of it.
If man should station himeslf on the
sidewalk and rush into the street after
girl riding on a wheel and tug at her skirts
and try to throw her down, he would prob
ably not be arraigned in court, but indig-
nant citizens would deal with him before
ever the law could get him into its clutches.
But the bicycle rider is the especial delight
of the Richmond dog, and the dog has all
the fun he wants trying to throw men and
women from their wheels. And if any
body should resent such insolence with
rock, that cruel somebody would probably
fall into the h ands of the s. P. c. A.

A PAINFUL SCENE IN COURT
Two Supreme Court Opinions Received
Yesterday for Filing
A PAINFUL SCENE IN COUR1
French Benevolent Society-A Peculiar
Suit instituted-Court News

Christian Smalley was awarded the
custody of his 3-year-old daughter,
Mary Lily, yesterday morning by Judge
Van Dyke in department four of the SUI
perior court. Smalley is a plasterer by
trade, a man about 80 years of age, and
much older than his Wife, a buXom
Swedish woman. The couple have not
been getting along well of late, and
quarrelS have been OF frequent occur
renee. Mrs. Smalley claimed that she
had to work to support the entire family,
and some days ago, becoming weary of
this sort of thing. left her husband
home, taking her infant daughter with
her. Smalley instituted habeas corpus
proceedings to recover possession of the
child, and the matter came up before
Judge Van Dyke yesterday. Evidence
was introduced to show that Smalley
was not a fit person to nave the custody
of the child, who needed a mothers care.
Judge Van Dyke, however. ruled that
the law was in the husbands favor; the
mother could not leave the home and
take the child with her. and accordingly
granted the writ, awarding the Gus
tody to Smalley. Then followed one of
those distressing scenes that sometimes
occur in courts of justice, and for which
there does not seem to be any remedy
Mrs. Smalley had been sitting in the
court room, with her child sleeping in
her lap. When the judge announced his
decision the mother was notified by her
counsel Quite lengthy discussion fol-
lowed the poor woman evidently at
first being unable to comprehend that
the law was so cruel as to deprive her
of her own child. When the matter was
made clear to her, however she braced
herself for the final effort. She aWoke
the sleeping infant, and tying on her hat
started to hand her over to her father
The child screamed and chung to her
mother, who. unable to longer bear the
scene, tore herself away and rushed
from the court room. Smalley then
caught the child, and placing her on his
shoulder, also left the court ROOM which
ended the painful episode until the mat
ter comes up in the divorce court.

Committed to tjiohIands

George Partridge, aged 80 years, was
yesterday examined by commission
consisting of Drs. MCGOWAN and Coch-
ran. before Judge Smith, and on being
adjudged insane was ordered committed
TO the asylum at Highlands. The case
is peculiarly sad one, from the fact
that Partridge has only been married a
little over year. Previous to his mar
riage he was subject to fits. but for the
past two years has been free of this
trouble. In January last he had an at
tack of brain fever from which he recov-
cred without any apparent bad effects.
ON Monday last, owing, it is believed,
to the extreme heat. he became men,
tally unbalanced and has since grown
worse. His mania took a suicidal turn
and he had to be locked up to prevent
him killing himself.

The case of Silvain Brun VS.. the So
ciete Franchise de Renaissance Mu-
tuelle de Los Angeles ct al. was partial
ly tried before Judge Shaw yesterday.
This is contest over the election of di-
rectorS of the society 1t is alleged in the
complaint that on March LIST there was
an election at which the following We're
elected as directors: T.. Faure, f. Cla-
we're, f. Clos, p. Echardis, Chas. Faure,
j. Grimaud, G. Pellissier, j. L. SEN
tous and f. Fleur. but that many IT.
Irregularities We're permitted. BY virtue
of the bylaws the election should have
been held under the Australian ballot
system, but its provisions were not OBJ
served in several particulars, and it was
further claimed that the votes of many
persons not entitled to vote were count
ed for IL successful candidates, while
the vote of one person not member of
the society was admitted. The plain
tiff alleged that il tWenty-eight votes
wrongfully counted, according TO his
view, had been thrown out by the board
of canvassers the election would have
materially changed the dictatorship.
Messrs. Ballarde, Conte, Echardis, T..
Eyraud, c. Faure. j. Luguet, l.. Loeb.
j. l.. Sentous and c. Pellissier would
have received the ma jority of the votes
Silvain Brun also averred that the So
ciety owns realty of the value of $40
000 in which he has an interest as
member of the corpora ton, and that this
interest would be prejudiced by having
the persons declared elected by the can
wasting board act as directors. For these
reasons Brun asked the court TO set
aside the election and restrain the pres
ent directors from acting as such or of
keeping possession of the books and
moneys of the society Most of the af-
ternoon was taken up in a recount of the
ballots, but the case was not concluded
at the hour of adjournment. There is
considerable feeling over the result and
a number of the members of the socie-
ty were in attendance.
