WHOSE BABY is SHE 2
Father Marries Again and
Grandmother Wants Her.
An Exciting Episode With a Little Girl as the
Centre Which Justice Walter Clark viii
Decide Today,

An eighteen months-old baby is causing
a stir in court circles in Raleigh and TO
settle this Chief Justice Walter Clark
has been called on.
The case which has caused this is that
of THE State against Frank B. Perry
and w. H. Harris" This is the title of
a warrant sworn out by Mrs Edna Man
gum for forcible trespass against the de-
PENDANTS, two young wnlIe men of good
character and tried before Justice Hef-
lin yesterday.
1t is case full of interesting fea-
lures The defendant Perry is the father
of a little girl, eighteen months old,
whose mother, a daughter of Mrs. Edna
Mangum, has been dead since the child
was about two months old. The little
girl has been living WIN her grandmother
nearly ever since her mother died this
by consent of her father About month
ago Perry married again, which seems
not to have pleased his mother Law.
Mrs. Mangum so she refused to let him
have his child.
About week ago Perry met Mrs. Man
gum on the streets with the girl. He
spoke to her and held out his hands to the
child and took her, then turning to Mrs.
Mangum said Good bye grandma, I've
got my baby" The old lady ran after
him, and threw a brick-bat at him but
by skillful lodging he got safely to his
gate, and as good luck would have it,
Harris was standing at the gate and
held it open for Perry, who thus escaped
the angry grandma.
The child had on a cape, which it seems
belonged to Grandma Mangum, and as
Perry failed to return it, the old lady
not being in a good humor over the loss
OF her baby, had a warrant issued against
Perry for forcble trespass in taking the
cape. Harris got into the warrant for
holding open the gate for Perry to os-
cape the angry grandma.
Justice Heflin, after hearing the evil
dence ana argument of counsel Mr. 8.
G. Beckwith appearing for the defend
ants and Col. J. G. L. Harris for the
prosecuting witness, bound both Harris
and Perry over to court in bond of fifty
dollars each.
rey, Mr.. Beckwith, sued out the writ
of habeas corpus which is returnable
before Chief Justice Walter Clark this
afternoon in the Supreme Court room.
Whose baby is she, the grandmother's
or the fathers is the core of the matter,
which Chief Justice Clark will have be-
fore him this afternoon.

One of the most instructive attractions
of the great Gaslxill- Mundy-LeVitt Car
nival Cmpany which will be here at the

which the world famous glass blowers
the most adept in their craft in the world
are seen daily manufacturing every sort
OF novelty and useful novelty out OF

button to ship in a globe, and their
handiwork they give away to visitors as
souvenirs of their visit The processes
OF glass blowing are most beautiful and
interesting and from the tiny globule of

this is most highly interesting and in
structive and it is safe to predict the
Glass Palace will be well crowded dur
ing its stay in this city.

recalls the familiar figure and the shin

was an incarnate welcome. His voice
was an inspiring appeal. His thought
and the memory of it are an uplifting
power. $50 He died at the zenith of
the possibilities of youth. He was saved
from the misinterpretation of the years

misconceptions of the evil to come. OF
him and of all the great souls of the

said:
While round the sun old Mother Earth

COMPLAINS AGAINST HUSBAND
Woman Says she f. Destitute while
spouse spends Money for
Drink.

Mrs. Bert Waugh. residing at 1922 Lind
sey street, called at police headquarters
yesterday and told a pitiful tale. Mrs
Waugh stated that her husbands fondness
for Iiouor had reduced the family to a state
OF almost complete destitution, and as a
consequence Of his squandering every cent
which he might chance to earn for drink
there was but little food in the home.
II have four small children at home
now" said the weeping wife, waiting for

! am unable to get It. They have insuf1-
Client clothing to Withstand the raSSges OF

TO protect them from illness. We are with

fuel from neighbors."
Mrs. Waugh was accompanied by her
mother, Mrs. Matte McManigal. with whom
she resides, and who also made a plea for
assistance. Waugh has wealthy parents In
Marcellus, Mich from whom he receives
money but which. his wife says, never
reaches her hands. He was fined 81 and

found drunk Mrs. McManigal will prefer
charges against him for neglecting his fam
lily. The two women we're directed to the

RATES ON EXCESS BAGGAGE
Jobbers Induce Railroad Companies

of New Schedule.

The protest Of the jobbers at Missouri

minimum charges for excess baggage has
resulted in a temporary agreement
whereby the railroads will postpone the
enforcement OF the new rule from March
/ until April / and will give the jobbers
an opportunity to meet the general passen-
ger agents some time during the month
Of March, when the situation will be can
vsssed and final action taken in the matter.
Some Of the roads had gone so far as
TO issue instructions to agents, making the
order effective March 1, but these in
structlons have been superseded. In the
time between now and the date Of meet
ing the jobbers on the river will make
arrangements to send strong delegation
