HABEAS CORPUS.
Possession of a Young Girl in
Dispute.
John E. Zempel Sues Amel and VIM
Luedtke for $500 Damages for All.
legged Malicious Prosecution.

The Zempels and Luedtkes of Willow
Creek are again at outs Amel Luedtke
i, the father in-law of John E. Zempel.
The latter has fourteen year old
daughter who is living with her grand
father, and Zempel claims that the old
gentlemen refuses to let the girl go to
her home. zempel has commenced a
habeas corpus proceeding to force
Luedtke to surrender possession of the
girl. This was returnable at ten o'clock
Tuesday forenoon before Judge Sever
ance, but when the time came, Luedtke
appeared without the girl. The pro-
ceeding was thereupon adjourned until
ten o'clock Wednesday, and Luedtke
was ordered to produce the child in
court at that hour. Pau & pfau and
Fl. L. Schmitt are Zempel's attorneys,
and B. G. Taylor and w. J.>Osborn ap-
pear for Mr.. Luedtke.
Mr.. Zempel has commenced an action
against Amel and VIM. Luedtke to re-
cover So, 500 damages for alleged malic-
ious prosecution, on account of proceed
ings started last spring against Mr..
zempel for alleged non-support, which
proceedings fell through. The papers
have been served in this case, Pau &
Pfau and H. L. Schmitt being attorneys
for the plaintiff.
The habeas corpus proceeding was
settled this forenoon. The child was
brought into the court room but was
not placed upon the witness stand. An
agreement was reached that the father
might visit his daughter whenever he
liked at reasonable hours, and might
use reasonable means to induce her to
return to his home. Each party claims
that the girl would go to his home if left
alone to her own desires, and she is now
free to do as she pleases.
