CASE COMES UP TOMORROW MORNING
Deputy Sheriff slavens Took 1t From
Its Father Under the Authority of
Writ of Habaes Corpus
Dairyman Fined s25.

Judge Roberts will have another ha- !.
ibeas corpus case before him tomorrow.
forenoon. Deputy Sheriff Slavens arm-
ed with writ issued by the court went
to the home of Michael Ware, aboutlten
miles southeast of town, this morning
and took possession of child four
months of age, which its mother, Mrs.
Nellie Ware, alleges was being wrong
fully detained. Steck & Smith are at
torneys for the mother and Seneca Cor
nell is attorney for the father and
grandparents.
/. Mrs. Ware says that she is the moth
er of Harvey Ware, who is the fruit of
a union between herelf and one Char
lie Ware. She says they were married
June z, 1899, in Wapello county, and
went to reside with her husbands pa
rents, Michael and Adah Ware. That
on account of the cruel and inhuman
treatment which she was subjected to
by both her husband and his parents
she was compelled to leave their home
last Thursday and go to the home of
her parents in Keokuk township, where
she now resides. She alleges that de-
PENDANTS refuse to let her have the
child, the only pretense they have, so
she says, is that they have as much
right to it as she has. She alleges
that they are wrongfully restraining it
and asks that writ of habeas corpus
issue. The court issued the order and
was to have heard the case today but
continued it until tomorrow morning
at 8 o'clock.
