WANTS TO SEE HIS CHILD.
A Father Asks That n Decree o
Court BE Enforced.

The suit Of Susan, d. Brown against
Frank Wilson Brown. from whom she
was divorced some time ago, for alimony
and the support OF her tllree-year-oid
child, took a new turn yesterday when
Mr.. Brown filed a petition before Justice
Mccomas asking that Mrs. Brown be
made to respect the command of the
court requiring i,er TO allow the child TO
visit its father at least three times a
week.
This order of court was passed some
time before the decree OF divorce was
granted, and Mr.. Brown says that up to
that time Mrs. Brown obeyed 1t. The
court had ordered that Brown should be
allowed the society of his child on Tues
days, Thursdays and Saturdays, which
was carried out by Mrs. Brown so far as
1t did not interfere with the child's at
tendance at school When the divorce
was granted to Mrs. Brown in May last
nothing was set forth in the decree as TO
the particular times at which the father
might see his child. II being understood
that the old agreement would be salts
factory. Ii was not, however. and soon
afterwards an arrangement was made by
which Mr.. Brown was to see his child
on Tuesdays. Thursdays and Sundays of
each week.
Mr.. Brown, in his petition. states that
soon after this agreement was made Mrs
Brown began to violate il and finally re-
fused to permit him to see his child He
also states that he is deeply attached TO
his child. and while In his company and
presence he endeavors to do everything
in his power to see that the child is prop
erly trained and that nothing is said or
done that can injure him. His mother
and sister. he says. are also excessively
devoted to the infant. which devotion is
returned by the child. During their mar
ried life the boy often lived at the house
of his grandmother, and was attended 10
and cared for by her.
Mr. Brown further declares that he is
Informed that the mother of the child is
in very bad health, and is unable. there
fore, to give the boy the attention he
should have He says Mrs. Brown and
the members of her fathers family. with
whom she is living, are all devout men,
bers of the denomination or sect known
as Christian Scientists and that by rea-
son of her belief she does not herself use
medicines or drugs or take medical advice
Of any kind. 1t being contrary to her
creed so to do. In view of all these facts
he thinks it but proper that an order oi

We heard an excited individual
say, while returning to his home
from the opera house Friday night

ager Whitley had a fortune in his
road if he only knewi it. The car was
at this time bouncing along furi-
ously, the driver being anxious to
get off duty, it being his last trip,
and must have been making about
three miles an hour. When the car
halted at Mondays corner for the
switch to be thrown, the excited
man continued: 'If Whitley would
advertise to do churning for the
Texarkana people at cents a churn
and have his car filed with churns
gathered up all along the line, all
that would be required to churn and
make the butter come would be to
have the car make a round trip"

over the Maple street line after IL
