CHANCERY COURT.
Decision Rendered in the Ball anfant
Habeas Corpus Case.

|
In the Ballanfant haDeas corpus case
heard Monday in the Chancery Court.
Chancellor Alternately decided Tuesday
morning to allow Mrs. Eliza Bailan-
FAINT to remain with her sons, Joe and
Matt Ballanfant. Mrs. Rallan-
FAINT is quite aged and feeble, and
there was some contention between
the children over her custody. The
Chancellor interviewed her personally,
and found it to be her wish that she
remain with her son, Will.
In the case of the Farmers & Mer-
chantss Bank VS.. Jacob Barker ct al.
which was argued at length several
days ago, and in which a number of
lengthy briefs had also been filed, the
Chancellor announced that he would
not render his final decision until the
July term of court. A number of com
plicated questions of law are involved
IN this case.
In the case of J. e. r. Carpenter VS..
the American Phosphate Company,
decision was rendered dissolving
the injunction and Diminishing the at
tachment against the defendant. The
complainant appealed to the Supreme
Court.
In the case of the State of T ennessee
ex relations VS.. the. Columbia and Pu-
laski Turnpike Co., a decision was
rendered, to the effect that the Attor-
ney General, as an officer of the State,
had right to control the matter and
effect a compromise. This was case
where the forfeiture of the turnpike's
charter was prayed for, and in which
a compromise had been made with tho
Attorney General.
In the case Of Walker Stone vs. w.
FL. Wilson, administrator in the
Chancery Court, Chancellor Aber-
nathy rendered decision giving tho
complainant judgment for 81, 800.

NAMES OF JAPANESE BABIES:
They Vary at Different Periods of c,-- Their Lives.
Ledger NInnthIv

Ledger Monthly.
 The naming of a Japanese baby is not simply the bestowal of name upon it, soon after its birth. by which 1t shall be known during it's lifetime. The name of Japanese is changed at various pe- riods of his life.
 When a Japanese child Is a month old he is given his first name with national in state to the family temple. Servants carry the entire infantile wardrobe, the extent of which indicates the degree Of wealth and social nosition of the father. At the end of the procession servant walks carrying box which contains money to be given the officiating priest, and slip of paper on which the three names arH written. On entering the tenn pie the father hands the paper contain ing the names to the priest. who copies them on three separate sheets, which he mixes and shakes at random, while pronouncing in a loud voice a sacrament temple is dedicated. He then losses them into the air. and the first one that touch es the floor is selected as the choice of the presiding divinity. This name is and is given to the child's father as talisman. During the ceremony sacred songs. with instrumental accompani- ments. are chanted. Visits to relatives and friends of the parents follow the christening. in celebration of which fes- tivities of various kinds are indulged in and presents given to the child.
 The Japanese child wears loose gar ments until he Is years old. At that time theV are discarded and his clothes are bound about his waist with a girdIe. The girdling ceremonies are public and are accompanied bN very elaborate re- iEious rites His education begins at this period and is considered finished at l5. at which time he attdns his major ltv He assumes tho responsibility of man and takes his place in society with

Sham Diamonds.
The Gentleman's Magazsna

The Gentleman's Magazine.
 A point in favor of the diamond is that its imitation is more or less easy of de- tection A real diamond cannot be touched with a file., and,~a false one. though it can be made to scratch glass, will not cut quartz. It's brilliancy also fades. while the real diamond is abso- lutely permanent. It reflects all the light falling on its posterior surface at an angle of incidence greater than "A de- grees 13 minutes. but its counterfeit only reflects half this Night.
 But the imitation of the diamond may be more common than is imagined. There Is good story of one of the fa- nous NJ. Bourguignon's customers A lady went into the well-known Paris atelier of sham gems and asked the price pf Darure in exact imitation of the me she produced. Was NJ. Bourgunon sure that the imitation would he perfect; had he observed the peculiar beauty and ourity of the stones?" The reply came; De calm madame the same workman shall have the job; You may rely upon
