Was Committed to the Care of the
Board of Guardians-The Mothers
Sad Story.

There have been tiny defendants ar
raigned In the grim old police court oot
the tiniest mite of all was a chubby baby,
not more than three months or age, which
was brought before Judge Miller late yes
terday afternoon. The infant came iu.o
court in the arms OF Fortly colored
"aunty'' and was accompanied by Agent
Parkman OF the Board OF Children's Guar.
diaus.
1t was a cute little thing. rotund and
rosy, and clad in costly apparel. Uncon-
scious of its surroundings and unconcerned
about its fate. this child of misfortune
crowcd at his honor as he was committing
1t through the Board of Guardians to one
of the District orphan asylums.
The baby, which is now a ward OF the
Capital City, is the sequel OF sad story
in real life. This story was related to
The Times today.
Agent Parkman explained to Judge Miller
that the mother OF the infant is scarcely
fourteen years OF age. She was brought
TO this city some time ago from North
Carolina by a designing scoundrel, to
whom she is not married. This man is the
father of the little defendant who appeared
In the police court under the abandoned
and destitute children's clause of the act
for the protection of children in this Dis.

The old colored nurse stated that the
girl.mother OF the infant had been seriously
Ill ever since its birth. That she was poor
and unable to provide for her offspring.

manded his honor.

ored woman.
"Where is he now?''
an Philadelphia
THAT is usually the case" said Judge
Miller. "The guilty father gets away,
but the child is always here to be cared
for by the District. Let the infant be
committed to the hoard of guardians
About fifteen months a go Lily Martin, the
mother, not then thirteen years of age, was
an innocent. romping schoolgirl at the
home of her uncle, in Currituck county,
NC. Her parents are dead and Lily had a
good home with her kinfolks there. One
luckiess day she met at neighbor's house
the man who has caused all her misery of
mind and body.
She fell an easy victim to his blandish-
ments, and ran away with him. She soon
learned that he was married man, but
the die had been cast. and she dared not
retrace her steps over the path of folly,
which had led her to the very depths of
ruin. The ili-Inated pair finally found
their way to this city, where about three
months go the little one was born.
Lily's relatives In North Carolina have
been apprised of the true situation, and
as soon as she is able to travel she will
be returned to them. Not the bright
faced. sunny -dispositioned schoolgirl of
yore, but a decrepit creature, though still a
child.

The members of the Rivers and Harbors
Committee and Others forming the party
now making an inspection OF tie Monon-
rahela and Ohio Rivers, as heretofore
noted in The Times, had "a narrow escape
from death Just before reaching Pittsburg
yesterday.
The Aonongaheh was almost at food

from Mprgantowp, W. Vu., was entering
lock No. 1. tie vessel was carried within
six feet of. the dam, and was prevented
from going under only by the oppcrtune
ARRIVAL OF another steamboat, which towed
the Mason out OF danger.
There were about one hundred persons,
men, women and children. on board the
.mperilcd boat, including mcubers Of The
Rivers and H1rhors Committee, and other
wcP-knowp Congres smen, as follows:
Representatives Warren b. Hooker, hair

accompanied by their wives and daughters,
and. in addition, a large company OF promi-
neDt citizens OF Fairmont, Wheeling Nor
gantown and Pittsburg were OF tie party.
Those aboard the beat were not aware
of their peril until the danger was averted,
all being coDgregated in the saloon, where
Congressman Catchings was making a
speech.
