A TRUMPED Up CASE,
Apparently in the Matter of Maggie
Hercules Detention

Charles Hercules will have to pay the
costs of the habeas corpus proceeding,
brought by him last Saturday for the
recovery of his own daughter. The
hearing on the writ was held before
Probate Judge DOlman late yesterday
afternoon, and all the interested par
ties appeared in court From the evil
dence il was determined that Maggie
Hercules was not being fOrcibIy de-
tanned from returning TO her home by
James Spurgeon and J. Henderson, as
was stated in the writ of habeas corpus
and the costs of the proceedings was
charged up TO the petitioner.
The Hercules matter appears to be
simply a case of a difficulty existing be-
tween father and daughter and the
consequent refusal of the daughter to
lives at home James Sturgeon is a SON
in-laW of Hercules. and at his home
the girl has been staying for the past
month She is supposed to be in love
with Else Sturgeon. a brother of her
sisters husband, who, her father says,
is responsible for the girl leaving home
He states that Else Sturgeon has at
tempted at different times in the past
to induce the girl to leave home.
Judge DOIman ordered the return of
the girl to her home. but after the
hearing yesterday afternoon she posi-
lively refused to accompany her father
and said she was going back to her
sisters house The girl is Il years of
age.
