Leldville, Col, June IS.-There
was an unusual scene at the Colo.
RADIO Midland DEPOT this evening
when the Denver train pulled In.
The train was loaded with a number
Of Lendville young people from The
Denver schools, who came up 20
spend the summer with their par
ents. Consequently there was n
number Of very pleasant family
reunions, but there was one in par
tcular which surprised the bysiand-
eEs to n very large extent and the
little girl who caused IL was not
from school either. When the
children had about emptied the car
they had occupied during the Jour
ney, little girl OF almost ten years
appeared on the STEPS, aud before
she had scarcely time to look
around AM see where she was
a well dressed woman, clothed
completely iniblack, rushed UP and
took her from the platform ami
buried her with kisses. CRYING
all the time. The little
one did not appear to DC frightened,
but did not return the embrace and
seemed TO question what il all ment.
IL was plain that the face beniing
above her was no; at all familiar. &.
Don't you know me, darling,''
implOred the woman, bending over
her. Il am your mOther.''
"No, l don't, but l suppose You
are, was the reply.
On this admission another burst
Of p3thOs followed and the young
ster was hurried towards the edge Of
The platform, where they wen.
