Mr- Dabbs calls? especial attention
to the edict of the Imperial Council
relative to what is generally known
as "street work." The highest author
ity in the Shrines has decreed that
nothing shall be done on the streets
which is calculated to embarrass the
candidate or humiliate him in any
way. At the ceremonial session here
last week the street work was elimi
nated entirely and Mr. Pabbs declares
that while he is potentate nothing of !
this sort shall be permitted. i
"Iii fact," says he, '"the entire Impe-1
rial law will be enforced to the letter
while I am in office."

This story may be true. Fifty years

indicating devotion to duty. In these
analytical days it is only the unso

the episodo except a wooden subjec
tion to circumstances. Under like con

History of Case.
It will be recalled that Mr. Wilson,
having . failed to convince a judge
who was presiding at a term of court
here over a year ago that he was
able to take care of his child and
should have it back, appeared before.
Judge Shaw here in the early vpart
of last September in habeus corpus
proceedings again, with the purpose
of getting possession of his child.
Judge Shaw instructed Mr. Boyd to
appear before him with the child on
Saturday, September 14, and show
cause- why he should not return the
child to its parent. On Saturday Mr.
Boyd appeared in court but without
thee hild, saying his daughter, Miss
Arpy Boyd, about 19 years of age,
had disappeared and ' the child with
her. -
Judne Shaw again ordered Mr.
its father, whom Mr. Boyd and mem-f
bers of his family have, contended
was not capable of taking care of the
child as it should be taken care of.
She traveled over sixteen hundred
miles to Arkansas and back, making
the trip all the way to the Western
country alone with the child, this
constituting her first extended trip
on a railroad train.
Mr. F. M. Redd represents Mr. Boyd
and his daughter and Mr. J. D. Mc
Call represents Mr. JLewis Wilson, the
petitioner for the custody of his child.
The case has attracted a . great deal
of attention because of its human in
terest features and also for the in
teresting points of law involved.
