LEGAL NEWS.
TIIE BABY CASE.
The genius of Solomon in discovering the
true mother in a celebrated b.\V>y case is re
corded in the Book of Books, the genius of
the law judges of this Stnte in disposing of
the virions baby cases that hive c j 11-i e
them is recorded in the State RejVirts, but in
all the reports in this State, and in all the
other law books to be fouaJ in But'er, no
parallel can be found to tne complications
that have arisen in the Monks-Harbison
case.
Monday at 2 I'.M. was the time fised for a ;
further hearing ol the case, but on account i
ot the large number of motions presented to :
the Court, it was nearly 4 o'clock before the
case was reached, when Mr. Galbreatu mov
ed the Court to quash ihe rule for contempt
granted on the defendants, on account of
their not bei> g parties to the original writ,
and also filed au uuwer in the habeas corpus ,
Martiu Monks was called by the plaintiffs i
and questioned as to his sister's whereabouts, j
whsn he stated that the last he saw of her !
was when she was getting on the train in Al
legheny for Chicago, and that when last j
heard from she was in Kansas City. He was
also questioned by Thompson as to the part ,
taken by himseli and family in getting her ,
a Robt. Harbisou, Jr., the father of the child :
told of his taking the child, as per order of j
Court and keeping and providing tor it, until ,
the Monks family and their friends came and
took it away by force, and recited the events
of that day, as he saw them, at the house aud
on the road.
Rob't Harbison, Sr., an aged and feeble
gentleman, told his story ot the tuss, and
said he expected there would bs death there
that day- , ..
Miss Mary Harbison told her story or tne
fuss, as did also Miss Lida Harbison.
It was now nearly six o'clock, and the
Court adjourned until 9 A.M., uext morning,
first, however, saying that it would vacate
the rule attaching the defendants for con
tempt of Court, aod go on with the heariuft
on the writ of habeas corpus, next morning.
Tiusday morning,jlartir* Monks was recallea
and questioned as to his consultation with
Thos. M. Marshall, Esq., of Pittsburg, in this
case, reg&rdiftg which the counsel tar the
plaintiff* seemed to be pretty well posted,
and then the prosecution rested.
Mr. Wendell Hiekey, whose home is in
Allegheny county a few miles trom the
Monk's was the first witness for the defense.
He stated that he =-ej}t to Harbison's on the
sth of October at {Martin's request for the
purpose of removing Mrs. Harbison's goods
to her father's house, told ot the fuss in the
house and said the Harbison* said they would
take the child from the mother dead or alive,
told of the fuss at the buggy and of Robert
trying to pull hi* wife out by t:ie leg.
John Xethereoate of Middlesex twp., was
the next witness. He was there to help piai
the goods, etc., took no jiart in the struggles,
gave a vivid description ot the war, particu
larly of the part fought on the roal, anl
thfca the defense rested.
Mr. Tbosjpsoa, tor the prosecution then
asked the Court to I (jle the defend tats to pro
duce the b->dy of the child within a stated
time, or be adjudged guilty ol sonteu;i't ot
Court, and also to rule Absalom Monks to
show cause why he should not be punished,
also to grant a rule on all the parlies to
show cause why they should not be lined
for obstructing the execution of the la v
The defendants filed a/i answer stating
that they wars not, gnd had not been siLce
the service of the writ iu the possession o!
the child, that it was now with Us matter iu
Kansas, and that they eould not produce it
Col. Thompson made the first speech for
the proaeatUm, during which he cited two
cases—one from Armstrong county and one
from Philadelphia—as bsariug on this case
He was followed by S. F. Bowser and James
Galbreath, Esqrs.,~for the defense.
Judge McJunkin followed for the defense,
aud he aau Thompson were soon in each
others wool na a question of veracity
Tnoinpsoo assertiug that he did not suv tha*
he would have these defend .uis in Jalt before
a certain night, and McJunkin affirming that
he did. MsJunkin also asserted that this
husband, Robert llsrbifon, Jr., had choked
bij wife when she wets lying helpless and
*ick in ohild-bed, and had damned har to
get up and get to work or leave the house.
We were not present at first hearing ot
this case—this vas the third —and of course
did aot hear the evidence on this point, but
if Rob't Harbison, Jr., did abuse bis wife
whileshewaslyiost l.edpless It} e!|jl i?be l,orw i 3
yet weak and sick from it, he did an ant that
should have c>st him the respeot of the com
munity aud the respectful consideration of
any Court in Christendom. It is as black an
act as a man be guilty of, blaoker than the
murder of a stranger or enemy, and puts the
being guilty of it below the level of any
other anim tl iu creation.
Chas. McCandless finished for the prosecu
tion aud said that the attorneys f>r the defense,
and particularly MeJstjkiu. should bj em
brased iu the rule for ooatempt, tod & lot of
other heroic trash.
Judge Hasten said he had made up his
mind to order theee parties to produce the
child Robert Charles Harbison in Court by
9 A.M. of Monday, Nov. 14, and would write
the order, which we understand is to include
Martiu and Wm. Monks, Weqdell fjiskey,
Mrs. Matilda Doerr, Absalom Monks aud Mrs
Catharine Harbison,ou Siturlay morning, or
as soon as the stenographer ciu furnish him
with the notes of the evidence.
Mr. Bowser excepted to the granting of the
rule, and Mr. G albreatb objecie 1 to the first
writ of habeas corpus, being incorporated in
the evidence. The Court ovcr-ru'.el him, he
took au exception, aud the ease tii'liid }pr the
present.

I desire to inform the oitizeus of Under Co.
that I am the Prohibition cmdi'iate for
County Tretsurer, believing that we have
many friends of our cause that h;ive not yet
voted with us and that a vote foremen who
are openly oppise l to the liquor ttatno counts,
while to vote with either of the old partus di e<
not count anything for the cause of temper
ance. I know you will be told, if you offer
to vote for one "of ns, "you will only thiow
away your vote and let in that other man "
No'.v that is cne of the mealiest arguments
tiiat even intiuenced a conscientious man in
voting, for when we vote for a can udatc who
openly avows certain principles that enter
into politics we vote for the priaciples they
uphold and the objects they have in view.
Therefore a vote for a principle is never
thrown away. This being true, if you vote
the Republican or Democratic ticket your
vote on the temperance issue is nowhere, for
these parties wiil not and dare uot avow a
principle in opposition to the liquor traffic.
The duty therefore of a man of even common
morals is plain. Both the old parties stand
in the way of better government, both stand
in the way of a re-united North and South,
from both good men must and will come and
join hands to save the Xation from the pres
ent corruption of our politics as well as the
indescribable curse of the liquor traffic. We
beg vou to come to our help in this righteous
cause against tLe saloon, encouraged by the
thought that even one vote for the right is a
majority .with God, and go to the election
with a' high and noble purpose and do a
work for God and home.

The Star of Oildom.
The star of Oildom which has hov
ered over the Jefterron Centre field
lately has concluded to abide there
for the present. On Saturday nit;ht
last the driil in Bolatd and Green
lee's well on the Lonitz farm reach
ed the sand, and the indications be
inp ,?ood, drilling 1 was discontinued
and preparations made for a big
well. On Monday morning of this
week the well was drilled in, and with
but one bit in the sand began flowing
at the rate of 110 bbls an hour, and
siuce that time drilling has been dis
continued, and the well has been al
lowed to decline on account of the
lack of sufficient tankage, and inabil
ity of the pipe line to the well, to
carry off the oil. The striking of this
well proves that there is a good tieid
there, and it was immediately follow
ed by the usual rush and scramble
among the producers to get leases in
the vicinity. All the farms m that
vicinity will now be leased at rates
varying with their nearness to or dis
tance from the big well, and some
leases have changed hands at big fig
ures. Haymaker and Legszett arc
said to have sold their lease of a farm
near the well to the Marshall Oil Co.
for $20,000, and Reiber got £4,000
for a hall interest in a lease ol the
Ohl farm, snd $2,000 for his interest in
another lease. Several other good sales
of leases have been made. The strik
ing of this well will also be the
cause of all the titles in that vicinity
being looked up and recorded. One
prominent citizen of Scxonburg came
to town Wednesday with tweuty
three old deeds in his pocket, to be
recorded.
