All the evidence in the case tended
10 prove this point and the court dc,
cided that the children should be
given into the custody of the society
The facts as brought out at the
trial showed that Mrs. Blake formerly
resided in Russellyille, Ala, and that
she was the wife of a Or. Gill a high

misconduct on the part Of his wife
was obliged to leave her The wo-

WHERE MONEY SHOULD FLOW

The Chidren's Home society Of
Cairo, with the aid of States Attorney
Wilson, made nobie and a success
fu fight yesterday before Judge
Dewey in the juvenile court, to save
two children. boy. and girl, from
their depraved mother The story II
told in the news columns elsewhere
as much of ii as can be told The
details developed at the trial are too
revolving to be printed and showed
the mother, Mrs. Gill, to be utterly
unfit to have the custody of her
little ones. The society took them
from her some months ago because
she was living in a bestial state of in
timacy with negroes, and was per
hitting negro men to act familarly
toward her little girl Complaint was
made to the authorities by Dr. Fields
who was attending the woman pro-
fessionally and who foresaw that
harm would come 10 the little gill If
she were not taken away, and the
DR., deserves credit for making report
of the matter. The children were
taken away by the order of the court
and given over to the care Of the
probation officer, Mrs. A. Comings
who placed them in the Children's
Home
