SUES FOR HER CHILD.
MRS. GOODWIN SEEKS TO RECOVER
CUSTODY OF HER DAUGHTER.
DID NOT LIKE THE SOUTH.
Father and Mother Separated seve-
raj Weeks Ago-Attempts Mt Re-
The Case IN Court This Morning.

In the Circuit Court Of Henrlco county
this morning the eclipse OF a very inte-
resting but brief romance may be wit
messed in the case Of Mrs. Nellie Goodwin
against her husband. Mr.. Robert Good
win. in which the plaintiff sues under
special statute TO recover possession OF
her S-year-old daughter
FIVE years ago Mr.. Robert Goodwin
met Miss Nellie Brewer In Bethlehem.
Pa Their admiration was mutual, and a
little over four years ago they were
married
Mr.. Goodwin shortly afterwards secured
position with the Richmond Railway
and Electric Company. in this city. and
took up his residence here, with his wife,
at his fathers house, in Fairmount Park
Mrs. Goodwin did not take kindly TO
Virginia, and returned 10 the home Of her
mother. in Pennsylvania, taking her child
with her. All efforts at reconciliation
proved fruitless, and the wife remained
deaf TO the entrcaties of her husband to
return home. Then. about three weeks
ago, Mr.. Goodwin, acting upon the adj
vice of his counsel. went to Bethlehem
TO make a last appeal TO his wife. She
remained obdurate and Mr. Goodwin in
sisted on bringing his little daughter back
TO Richmond.
MRS. GOODWIN'S PETITION.
Mrs. Goodwin employed Messrs. An
derson d Anderson as her counsel and a
petition was prepared, asking that the
child be given into her custody. The
bill alleges that the father Of the child
Is not able TO properly support her, and,
further, that he is negligent. Mr.. Good
win who is represented by Mcssrs
Mosby & Folkes. denies these Allegations
and number of prominent people have
been summoned TO appear as witnesses
who will testify to his exemplary and
high moral character. The answer 10 the
petition further states that the defendant
has retained the confidence Of his en-
ployers ever SINCE he was engaged. which
he could not have done had the allega-
lions of the plaintiff been founded on
fact.
MOTHER AND FATHER WILL BE
THERE.
An interesting feature Of the case will
be the appearance of both father and
mother in court. 1t is said that n final
effort at reconciliation VIII be made. and.
falling in this. the fight will be an eX-
ceedingly bitter one.
The little girl. who is named after her
mother. is an exceedingly bright and in
telligent child. She appears to be per-
fectly happy and contented. and alto
gether oblivious of the painful differences
which exist between her father and her
mother.

STYLES IN FOOTWEAR.

thusiasm as are those for the head
Shoes, boots and slippers all have their
day, and although the changes in heel
and toe are as radical as those Of other
personal belongings, Dame Fashion does
! not cry it out from tho house tops;
neither does she insist that her whims
in this regard be followed closely.
Pointed toes have lost their prestige,
and round, roomy one has come in
their place. It has taken months for
this shaped toe to establish itself in
general favor, but it is English, and the
habit Of following customs from that
country is one of long standing. There
fore round toes will be seen ON the feet
Of all the really swagger set this season.
Tan shoes and other walking boots will
take OH this new style. Thus two i'm.
portant points will be gained-ease and
novelty. For the street, black boots are
preferred. The matter Of fastening also
is one Of preference. Laced shoes show
to greater advantage the natural shape
of the foot, while buttoned shoe will
always lack grace. A cloth top, with
patent leather vamp, is favorite style
Of boot for the street in the afternoon,
! although those made of kid entirely are
quite as much in vogue. For carriage
wear, patent leather vamps with tops to
match the costume are very handsome
This style is also carried out with tailor
made gowns in small checks or plaids.
A dressy shoe is tho Richelieu, al
though not novelty. 1t Is used for
general evening wear and Is made Of
the softest French kid, half low and
beautifully stitched. Other evening
shoes are made of satin to match the
gown or of suede kid. A pretty conceit
is the low cut patent leather slipper
with moderately high heel and lining
of silk or satin to correspond with the
costume.
Black satin boots and oxford ties are
growing in popular favor. These shoes
always feel delightfully."- easy on the
feet, and there is no doubt but that a
black shoe makes an ordinary sized foot
more dainty. This is especially true Of
black satin. Slippers for use in the
sanotity Of ones own bedroom are dain-
ty affairs of bright red kid, some Of
which are without a heel entirely,
while others have, high red one. The
soles Of these are padded, and many Of
them have sachets hidden in the satin.
Linen and crash slippers are most con-
venient and readily make themselves
necessary for bedroom use. The forego-
ing styles We're reported and illustrated
in the New York Times, from which
they are here reproduced.

DREW THE FATAL NUMBER.

Month, but Was Prevented.
Walter J. Mcbride of Honolulu re.
Gently became insane, it is said, through
drawing the fatal number in suicide
club which he joined about six years
ago in Seattle. According to the story,
Mcbride received his summons about
year ago and was doomed to take his
life last month, following in the foot
steps of five other members of the club.
Mcbride drew the fatal number, but
had IL months in which to kill him.
self. The matter weighed so heavily on
his mind that his reason became unbal-
anced and through his strange actions
and nightly rawlings his friends learned
the truth.
Mcbride is only about 30 years OF
age, but during the Seattle boom in the
early part of this decade he is said to
have made $50, 900, every dollar OF
which he lost when the bottom fell out
of the boom. A dozen young men of his
set shared the same i'll fortune, and
while drowning their troubles in wine
one night they decided that life was
not worth living. Some one suggested a
suicide club, and the idea was adopted.
The club was formed, and each of the
13 members took a solemn oath to fol-
low out its object. Lots were drawn
that night, and within "a hours there
after one member was dead by his own
hand.
Mcbride returned to Honolulu about
four years ago and secured position in
Bishop & Co. s bank, where he rose to
paying teller. He made considerable
money in sugar stock and was again
on the high road to prosperity when the
summons to die came. That was year
ago, but through the unanimous action
of the surviving members of the club
Mcbride had years time, but last
month he was to commit suicide.
Mcbride had made preparations to
conceal the motive for his intended sui

and real estate he owned, converting
them into cash and placing the money
in bank. He then made his will, leav-

washington,s Statue In London.

D. G. Murray, the novelist, recently
proposed national subscription to erect
in London a statue in honor of George
Washington. Messrs. Bayard and Hay
have both approved the scheme. The
Daily Chronicle, however, questions
whether the statue might not result in
an imbitterment of relations and says:
Like all near relatives, England and
America quarrel now and then. Perhaps
some day it might occur to boisterous

in His Suit Against the
Railroad.
LEGAL BATTLE LASTED A WEEK.

be Tried Over Again.

The great legal battle of Polhil vs.
the Florida Central and Peninsular
railroad, which had been waged for
the entire week ia the little courtroom
at HinesviIle, Liberty county, closed
yesterday at noon, when, after a strong
concluding argument for the plaintiff
by Col. T. G. Parker, of Baxley, and
long and exhaustive charge by Judge
Falligant, the case, with its mass Of
expert and othar testimony, was gwen
to the jury.

nounced that the jury had just report
ed that it wag up able. .to.agree.
The jury stood eleven for the plain
tiff and one for the railroad.
This status of the jury amounts sub
stantially to victory for Mr.. Polhill
and his counsel. The practically
unanimous standing of the jury is
strong proof of the justice Of his cause.
Mr.. Pc, ,hil's suit is for $33 900. The
read spared no expense. in fighting the
case. Expert testimony was employed, +,
the state was scanned for witnesses,
and human skeleton was produced
in court.
Judge C Symmes and Col. Sam G.

of Baxley, represented the plaintiff,
and Messrs. Crovatt & Whitfield, of
this city, the defendants.
The case will come up again at the
next term Of court.
MIR. Polhill, the plaintiff, says that
nearly every one who attended the
trial of the case, outside of the road's
employees, believes firmly that the ver-

Veteran Engineer Could Not Stand the

Engineer Frank Herring Of the Big
Four had the fastest ride of his life re-
Gently, and SO rapid was the clip set by
his engine that George Wilson, an old
engineer on the retired list, who was
riding in the engine cab as his guest
jumped from the locomotive in fright.
Herring pulled out Of the Preston and
Washington street depot, in Louisville,
early a few mornings ago with Wilson
at his side. Outside of the city his train
lost time, and when the straight stretch
of 81 miles just out Of Jeffersonyille
was reached Herring turned his engine
loose. Ten, 10, 20, 30, 40, so miles an
hour Wilson, the old engineer, made it.
Then the brow of Milton hill was
reached, seven miles to the bottom.
Wilson demonstrated with Herring, but
the latter threw his throttle wide open.
The train seemed to fly. "Seven miles;
six minutes" exclaimed Wilson. At
Deputy red flag was shot up, and the
train stopped. The Big Four record over
the line was broken. Wilson jumped
from the engine. He said: 81 was 81
years at the throttle, but stop here.
That kind of riding is too fast for me. "
