BABE LEFT IN A CONFESSIONAL.
A five months old boy was abandoned
by woman on Thursday afternoon in
confessional of the Roman Catholic
Church OF Our Lady Of Mercy, in Web.
ster avenue, near Welch street, Ford
ham. The infant was neatly dressed.
William F. Smith was painting the
organ in the choir loft at half past three
o'clock Thursday afternoon, when he
heard an infants screams. The cries
continued at intervals for half an hour,
but the painter, supposing an infant
was being christened, paid no attention
to the screams. His eight-year-old son
Willie, who was in the lott with him,
started down stairs to see what caused
the chiid's cries, but was held by bis
father.
A young lady entered the church at
four O'Clock, and while kneeling heard
the infants cries She traced the cry
ing 70 q confessional.

young woman saw an infant lying on
the floor. She FASTENED up stairs and
told Smith. The infant was lying at

from which it is supposed it had fallen.
There was slight swelling on the back
of the head which it is thought was
caused by the iall.
Smith picked up the child and car
ried it to pew. He called in Police
man James Erett, of the fremont sta
tior, who wanted Smith to carry the in
fant TO the station house, a amile and
quarter away, but he refused. Brett
finally took it to the station house,
from whence it was transferred to
Bellevue Hospital.
The child was dressed in white
wooden cloak, white dress with rad
trimmings. white flannel petticoa',
white hood and stockings and button
shoes. 1t was very pretty.
The woman who carried the baby
into the church is described as tail and
we'll dressed. Several of the neighbors
saw her enter the church with the
baby in her arms and leave few mo-
menls later without the baby. She was
stranger in the neighborbood.
The priests OF the church were horrl-
fed at the discovery.-N Y. Herald.
