8 THE OMAHA "DAILY HEE * TUESDAY , FEBRUARY 7 , 1891 SCOTT ON HUSBANDS' ' DUTY George T , Russell Given a Now Notion of the Obligations Entailed by Matrimony , WARM LECTURE ON PERSONAL PURITY Opinion of the Court L'oucrrnlnff tlio Moral Atlllmlo of Mnrrleil Men Who Defame Their Wives nml Tnko Up with Other Women. At last , ana after long weeks of watching and waiting , Mrs. Mary C. Husscll has secured the absolute custody and control of her two Cables , Occrgo and Virginia. The battle between father and mother has been fought \\lth every energy and every weapon known to the law , and at every point the mother has been the victor. Yesterday the last round was fought before Judge Scott of the district court and when it was over George V. Hussell , the fatncrof the children and the husband of Mrs Husscll was consid erably disfigured , though he announced that ho was Htill in the ring. I ist week week County Jiulgo Eller made his decision , appointing the mother the legal guardian of the children , Hussell , by his at torneys , sought the aid of the district court , where ho brought dlvorco proceedings , at the same time charging Mrs. Hussell with having committed adultery and further al leging that she was not a fit person to have the custody of the children. At that time he asked the rourt to place the little people in the hands of some disinterested party until after the disposition of the dlvorco case. Submitted on AIIIda\lts. When the case went into the district court Jmliro Scott gave each party an opportunity to file affidavits in support of their respective claims , and it was upon this hearing that the case went to trial yesterday. The whole of the morning and a greater portion of the afternoon session was devoted to the reading of the affidavits When the last document was finished the attorneys on both sides stated that they were willing to submit to the decision of court and that without argument. Judge Scott replied that he had watched the proceedings ulth considerable interest and that all of the facts brought out on tno trial were fresh in his memory. There was a painful silence In the great court room when Judge Pcott commenced by paying that when the county court appointed the mother the guardian of the children It did nothing but its duty. That court placed the children In the custody of the mother and there its duty ended. If it could bo Bhown that neither of the parents wcro lit pel sons to have the custody of the children it would bo the duty of the district court to Btcp'in ' and take them away , "but , " said the judge , "it has not been shown that the mother is not u suitable person to have them under her control. " Judicial Opinion ofa Detainer. Right hero the judco cut loose and then It was that Mr. Hussell heard something drop , for from the Judicial bench there was deliv ered a lecture that was worth double the price of admission. The court announced that the proceedings wcro deplorable in the extreme , "for , " said he , "I cannot imagine anything that is more deplorable than to have n man make Insinuations against his wife , especially when ho docs not proro them. Not only on account of the wife , but it seems to me that such things would kill the children , as the insinuations are against the chastity of the mother , but they do not prove anything. All of the affidavits which have been read merely insinu ate , and Insinuations can bo made ngainst the purest woman on the face of the earth. Fiom what has been shown there is not a syllaolc , not a line , not a word that would fasten the lack of virtue upon this woman. Take all the evidence ana there is no Judpo who can say that the woman isnot virtuous. It is nil easy thing to trump up a lot of circumstances to blacken the character of n woman , and that is all I can see that has been attempted in this case. "Tho man who attempts to rob a woman of I'er good name and destroy her reputation docs a dastardly aot , Un ho robs her of some thing which is more valuable than wealth nnd at the same tinie ho robs her of some thing which can never bo returned. " I'crnoiml Views oCItusftcll. Turning his attention to Mr. Husscll , Judge Scott said : "If one-half of the show ing made against him is true ho certainly is not fit to have the care and custody of the children. It seems that he , a married man ivlth a wife who Is alive and from whom ho Js not divorced , is staying alone in a house with a divorced woman. It may bo possible that u man can live this way and bo all J-ight. I don't say that ho can't , but if any man can I want to bo introduced to that man. Right hero I want to say that no man who has a wife has any right to live in the eamo house alone with another woman " The attorney for" Mr Kussell said that ho wanted to take exceptions to the remarks of the court. Judge Scott told him that ho could except , but that the facts as ho pith- , cied them would bear him out in everything that ho had said. Then that attoinoy sub- pidcd , and the judge continued by saying that ho did not think that it was proper that the children should remain in the custody of the sheriff , ns ho had not been informed that that official was maintaining A creche for the care of children. t "I shall modify my order , " continued the Judge , "and I shall turn the children over to their mother , but I shall not expect her to take them from the jurisdiction of the court Until after the dlvorco suit is disposed of , nnd that must be brought on for trial within n reasonable length of times \ I do not pro- peso to keep this woman on expense and ftway from her homo for n longer period ol tlmo than I am actually obliged to in the ad ministration of justice. May Take. Her Children , "So far as the sheriff is concerned , the Injunction is dissolved and the mother is ul liberty to take her children and go where she sees fit , so long ns she remains withir the Jurisdiction of this court. " The attorneys held a conference and al the end it was decided that the dlvorco case should bo called for trial on February 28 and that the hearing should bo prosecutcc with nil possible speed. Mrs. Hussell at once furnished a bond thai she vi ould have the children in court at the appointed tlmo , nnd another chapter of the sensational case was concluded. After the announcements had been made Mrs. Uusscll's friends gathered about her t < extend congratulations and express theii happiness ever the victory which she hat jyon , Leaving the court room she went t < Sheriff Dennett's residence. remained a shor tlmo and then , accompanied by her little bo ; and gill , departed for the homo of one of tin ladies who stood by her during the long llgh for the possession of her children. Kussoll admitted that ho had been whippet nt every turn , but upon boimr cheered up b ; his attorneys , volunteered the informatioi that when the divorce suit was tried thor would bo something brought out that wouli open the eyes of the people and somothini that would turn the tide of public symp.xth in his diicetlon. iA' OPIXID. : jFlr t Dny of the 1'elirunry Term Slioiv I.lttle Animation.

HARD BLOW TO THE SHARKS * Iowa's ' Supreme Court Knocks the Under pinning from Beneath Collection Mills. MADE A RULE TO WORK BOTH WAYS Arbitrary Untiling * ortlio .IiutlcoShoris Con cerning Aimlgninmit * ofViiROi lie- verged hy the Highest Tribunal In tho.Stiite Iliillniir News. The justice mills in Council Bluffs have for years been crowded with garnishment cases brought ngalust railway and express com pany employes by professional collection sharks who have "reaped where they have not sown , " through the peculiar operations of a ruling of the Iowa supreme court that the Immunity from execution secured an Iowa citizen by the Iowa statutes did not extend to a nonresident. In their omniscient wis dom these upright justices , "learned in the law , " have held that , while wages to bo earned could bo levied upon and execution against In favor of a judgment creditor , it could not be assigned for the purpose of payIng - Ing n preferred claim to another creditor , thus blocking the efforts of the sharks to secure "Justice" and their "dues. " But the supreme court of Iowa has Just held that a rule ought to work both ways to bo effective , and has given an opinion that will check the dally How of garnishments brought against railroad employes from the Council Bluffs collection mills. In the supreme court of Iowa on January 80 , an opinion was handed down covering the question whether the Union Pacific could beheld held as garnishco In n case where a man's wages was assigned. Horace C. Motealf on December 31,1889 , brought an action against J. W. Kineead before n Justice of the peace , in which action n writ of attachment was issued under which the Union Pacific Hallway company was garnished. Notice of garnishment was served on the company December 81 , 18S9. Thereafter the company answered that prior to the garnishment and on October 29 , ISb'J ' it accepted the following assignment : Anauer oT the Computi ) . OMAHA , Oct. . 29 , 1889. Mr. T.

"That Burns claimed and owned all the wages earned by Kinccad as employe of said company , according to the tenor of said as signment ; that ever since its date the garnishco had paid the wages earned for the months stated In said order to Burns , and on January 3 , 1890 , paid Burns under said order the wages earned by Kineead. " The Justice entered judgment against the garnishco on its answer for $ . " > 8.f > 5. The garnishco sued out a writ of error to the superior court of the city of Council Bluffs and the superior court afllrmcd the finding of the justice. At the proper time the garnishco caused a certificate to be executed and filed by the judge of said court certifying certain ques tions of law to the supreme court for its de termination , which wcro : First , The right of a person In the employ of another to assign future earnings In the ab- kenco of a contract , under which the wages are to ho uitrnptl , so us to vest In the assignee nil the i Iglit , title and Interest of the assignor to the sumo. Second , Whether , In case an existing con tract la necessary to the validity of the assign ment , thcie Is any presumption that dofcnd- unt was woiUng under such n contract or must the contract be plead and proved. Tlilnl , Does the instrument set put , In law , amount to an assignment so as.to vest In Hums the wages earned hyi Kineead to thu ex clusion of thu attaching creditors. Opinion of the Court. The last question was first taken up by counsel in their brief and is first answered in the opinion of the supreme court in the affirmative. "It is insisted by plaintiff that as the , , order was addressed to 'E. Young , auditor. ' it would not bind the railway company , and that an acceptance of It by the garnishee would not , at least as against plaintiffs , bind the company , " says the supreme court. "True , the order is not directed to the rail way company , nor on its face to Young as an official of the company. But it has often been held that no particular form of words need bo used to constitute an assignment of a debt. All that is necessary is that the in tent to cffectuato an assignment shall clearly appear. That Intent may appear from the writing itself or it may bo shown otherwise.

"Tho fact that the order is informally drawn , " concluded the court , "is of no im portance in view of the effect given it by the parties and their manifest intent. If then Kincaids wage's were in law assignable a question hcrcattcr considered the order having been intended to assign them to Burns , and having been accepted and acted upon , is though informal , effectual as an assignment. " " lloth Held to lie Good. As to the first and third questions the court held in the affirmative , and in speak ing of the first question said : "Tho true rule is that an assignment of wages to bo earned is good if accepted , and if at the time it is made , there is an existing engagement or employment by virtue of which wages are being and in the future may reasonably bo expected to bo earned even though there is no contract , or fixed time of employ ment. And in the case of a contract for work or labor , an assignment of the fruits of it may bo good though the labor to bo per formed under it has not yet been com menced. " In concluding , the opinion is as follows : And as wo hold that the existence of a contract is not necessary if the assignment is based on wages to Do earned in an existing employment , wo need not consider the second question.

After you're pretty well posted , strike out for our shoe room look over CUM ; shos stock ask questions ( our shoe men'll answer'em as fast as you can ask 'em ) see if you don'tseoasggod shoes here as you've seen anywliara-just as many shapes as good styles and as large a variety to pick from you be you will. Then ask about the prices. You'll find the same kind of prices that wa've built up our business on. You'll find a genuine full stock American calf shoo , made with th ? genuine Coodyoar welt , at two dollars and fifty cents. You've probably seen the same shoe at four dollars ( but they called it hand made * . You'll find the finest American calf shoe that you've run across at three-ninety and the man that's writing this "ad" knows they're wearers for he's standing in a pair of 'em that he's worn over nine months ( nights not include : ! ) . You'll see shoes At SI 25 that are made with solid leather insoles and . t + fA.iw counters. At $1.65 thataremadeof substantial casco calf. At $1.85 thataremacleof full stock calf wJth dongola tops At $2 25 that are made of solid American calf-made in the same factory and of the same stock as a certain widely advertised best-on-earth-threa-dollar- shoe , " but we have 'em made better. You'll see the finest line of fine footwear at four-twenty-five , four-seventy-five and five-dollars-and-a-half that you've seen anywhere , and they're from two to two-and-a-half loss in price han you've seen their equals.
