Il WIS then 3'oclock 10 the afternoon,
aud the young woman informed the Of
6cer that her sister left her at 8 O'Clock in
the morning, and that she had since re-
turned. on hearing her statement the
officer pointed out 70 her the Home for
Friendless Girls, and advised her to 60
there. She at once did 90, and has been
kindly cared for ever since. No tidings
have been received Of her missing sister,
although the police are actively at work
on the case.
Through the courtesy Of Miss McCabe,
the mstron of the Home, q Herald re-
porter last evening held . conversation
with Lillian Aubrey, who 10 an interesting

while the prompt and lucid manner In
which she modestly replied to such ques.
tions a. we're asked her, carried with 1t
the conviction that her utterances were
most truthful.
To the question Why she and her sister
left their homo in Colorado to come to
this city, Lillian replied: 1--WE had NO
home there; our mother has been dead
two years, and our father died five weeks
ago; my father was farmer, and he had
been living in Insing, COL, about twenty
years; do not know what calling my
father followed before he went to arm
ing; he was an Englishman, and on first
arriving in this country he lived in New
York for q while; he sfterward married
a lady in Long Island and then emigrated
to Colorado"
"Thst lady was your mother, pre-
sume3"

the only children. am eighteen years
old and she is nineteen"
ut appears rather strange that you and
your sister should leave Colorado to trav-
81 all the way to this city where you were
not certain Of even finding the friend
whom you believed to be living here"
ut Was strange, but my sister thought
she could do better here. She has re-
ceived good education, and on that &C.
count she hoped to get situation as
governess. She only attended school tor
a year and half, but my father, who
was very well educated, finished her edu-
cation. went to school for longer
time than nay sister, but l was not So
ready at learning as she was, and my
father devoted more time to her than he
did to me, because Minnie wished to be-
come teacher; for my part intended
to do fine sewing for \ living"
"What became of your fathers farm
when you came on here's"
"My father was In debt when he died,
the farm was sold, and after his funeral
expenses aud debts had been paid we had
only about &45 left between US. OF this
we paid $14 each for tickets from lnsing
to New York, and when we arrived here
on Saturday, week ago, at four O'Clock
in the afternoon, we had but $l5 left.
We took board In Morris street on our
arrival, and they charged US $3.50 from
Saturday until Tuesday morning, when
we left to try and find Mrs. Higbee, a
friend, who lived in Church strcet; we
did not have the number of her resi-
denec."

reached the Park about eight O'Clock in
the morning. Ny sister then left me
