MOTHER SEEKS TO
RECOVER Child
Fine Legal Points Involved
in Case on Trial at
Caldwell.

Caldwell. April 2s.-In the district
court today. Judge Bryan is engrossed
in hearing the case of Eva Lovejoy
versus Henry and Lila Rodgers, an
action involving an application for a
writ of habeas corpus. This contro-
versy in which the mother seeks to
secure possession of her little daugh-
ter involves legal points of such a ma
ture as to make 1t a case of statewide
importance, one of the elements of
adjudication being as to whether a
parent can secure possession of his or
her child after it has been placed
with the Children's Home Finding &
Aid society consequent to his or her
bad habits or lack of ability to care for
the child, il such a condition has been
overcome by reformation or good for
tune. The plaintiff in her complaint
alleges that while living in Pocatello
during 1915, her husband, Fletcher
LoveJoy, was addicted to drinking and
was unable to provide for her and her
five children, and that as a result of
the complaint to the probate Judge of
Bannock county, her little daughter
was committed to the care of the Chill
dren's Home Finding & Aid society, but
that the order was suspended. From
March 16 of this year, while the child
was visiting in this city the sus-
pension of the order was revoked fol-
lowing which adoption papers were
granted to the defendant by the Chill
dren's Home Finding & Aid society
The mother in the meantime and pre-
vious to the granting Of the adoption
papers, had secured a divorce from her
husband. The case is being hotly con-
tested. Attorney S. l.. Upton of Boise
represents the plaintiff.

Pays High Tribute to the Memory Of
Former Governor Of Wisconsin

The following tribute Is paid to the
w. Peck Of Wisconsin, who died at his
home in Milwaukee last Sunday, by
Chief of Police M. S. Parker, formerly
resident of the Badger state and one
who had personal acquaintance with
that popular executive and author:
Il knew the late Governor Peck of
Wisconsin very well. In fact ! enjoyed
personal acquaintance with him, and
my opinion Of him was very high in
deed. He was most popular chief
executive and author. Surely It was no
small honor to be counted among his
friends, and the news of his death
brought to me. distinct feeling of sor-
row. His friendship and his confidence
were well worth the price to gain them.
Who among those who knew him best
could ever forget the genial smile, the
hearty hand shake and the witty, jocu-
lar sayings SO characteristic of the
whole souled editor OF Peck's Sun and
author of Pecks Bay Boy and Peck's
Bad Boy Abroad, which found their
way into many parts of the world,
brought cheer to the hearts of thou
sands upon thousands OF readers and
made the subject of this article a not
able figure in the world of fun.
Governor Peck many times visited
the city in which I published q news
paper, and when he called on me at
my office he brought with him sun
shine and encouragement and helped
me to get a broader view of life. 1t was
indeed good to have the governor drop
in for visit. He had a very happy
faculty of adjusting himself TO cir
cumstanees and environment. no mat
ter how trying they We're, and he could
dispel the blues about the quickest of
any individual ever met. He invar-
iably looked on the bright side of life
and made the best of everything
THE governor was reared on q farm
near my home town and he learned the
printers trade in another city a few
miles distant. Even after he had as
cended high on the ladder of fame he
used to enjoy going back into his old
home country to see his friends and
relatives. and they were always glad
to have him among them. He enjoyed
hunting and fishing and he was a fire.

PROSPtCTOR OPENS
VALUABLE DEPOSIT
BIG VEIN OF TUNGSTEN LOCAT-
I'D ~ SOUTHERN NlE
COUNTY

J.. Scheel, who has been prospect
ing in this state for q number Of
years, is in town making purchases
of ore sacks. He is about to begin
shipment of ore from a find made
at Oak Springs in an unorganized
district 60 miles north of Indian
Springs on the L. V. & T. The prop
erty is known as the Lucky Strike
group. 1t is owned by Mr.. Scheel,
who is superintendent; Dean j. G..
Schugham of the University of Ne
vada, Mrs. l.. B. Bower and Charles
Ferguson.
The formation of the district IS
lime and granite with quartzite and
intrusive porphries. The principal
vein is four feet in width and has
been opened for a length of rs feet.
1t carries from S.5 to SIS per cent
copper and a small amount of silver.
The ore will be shipped with little or
no sorting to the Western Ore Pur-
chasing company.
What Mr.. Scheel deems a remark
able feature of the find is hat run
ming with the ledge is a deposit of
tungsten. which has not yet been
developed. AS yet the workings are
superficial, but machinery has been
ordered and a shaft will be put
down following the ore.
This is not a new district, but was
prospected in ~haphazard fashion a
number of years ago. Prof. Spur
reported favorably on it, and Dean
Scrugham says: THE district opens
I'M a great field for mineral research
and scientific demonstration" Con-
siderable prospecting is now being
done in the vicinity and some of the
best locations are those made by

that section.-Tonopah Bonanza.
