RECOVERED HIS CHILD.
Pearl Irwin Given Into the Custody
of Her Eatler.

Judge Hart yesterday made, an order
giving to Nathaniel Irwin the perna-
nent custody of his child, Pearl IRWIN,
who in 1889 was given into the custody
of the mother, Laura Irwin, who had
been granted a divorce.
For several years Mr.. Irwin had been
trying to find his child, and finally dis
covered her on ranch in Yolo County,
where she was being harshly treated by
the family with whom she had peen
left.
Mrs Irwin did not appear in court
yesterday to contest her eX-husband
application fer the custody of the child,
and it being shown to the satisfaction
of the court that the mother is not a
proper person to have control of the
girl, the previous order was modified
so as TO place the latter in the per
manent custody of her father.
