little girl, dressed in black dress which
came 10 her heels, emerged from the emf
grant car aud was helped into the day
coach by one of the train boys. She Is n
pretty little girl. with a round, olive
tinted face. with great. large eyes. which
seem TO be so full of sadness that any one
with heart would pity her. Fastened to
her side by a string was one OF the tags of
the New York immigration service, stating
that the girls name was Hilda kannya-
miew, and that she was going to San
Francisco to her sister Sophia. She car
ried a little round basket on her arm, and
this was labeled Miss Hilda kanniainen,
Brannan street No. SIS, San Francisco
The passengers all took an interest in
her Immediately, but, as Hilda could not
speak word OF English, almost nothing
could be learned. A lady who was going
to Portland took the girl TO her side and
made her comfortable until Seattle was
reached, when the little Finn and her
newly-fouad friend got off the train.
Hlldats train ill not leave for San Fran
cisco until O'Clock this morning. and the
lady was anxious 10 leave for Portland
last night, but she did not like to let the
girl remain here all night alone. Just
then Mrs. w. V. Rinehart. jr., and lady
friend who were waiting for the Northern
Pacific train spied the little woman. and
OF course were Immediately interested.
She looked so tred and sad that Mrs.
Rinehart took her home with her. Quite

She SAID that her sister works in San
