SAD CASE.
A Mother and Two Children PEN
niless and Deserted.

Special officer Dan Healy of the
Children'S Society was called to the
depot yesterday to investigate the case
of woman and her two children who
had just arrived on the overland train
and were without means.
Mr. Healy found the woman with a
sick infant in her arms and another
poorly-clad child of years. The
woman said she had come from Kan
sas and reached here penniless Her
husband had deserted her for the COM
pany of another woman, and she did
not know where to turn nor what to
do. Her sick child needed attention
that she was unable to give it from
lack of means.
The case being one that does not
come under the province of the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chill
dren, Mr.. Healy could do nothing in
the premises except to send the dis
tressed mother and her children to a
hotel, at his own expense, and this he
did, guaranteeing their expenses until
to-day.
The manager of the hotel, it was SUBJ
sequently learned, declined to receive
them because of the infants sickness,
and the mother and children were re-
turned to the depot.
Learning of this Mr.. Healy procured
beds and sent them to the depot, where
the strangers were made as comfort
able as possible for the night, and AS
sistant City Physician Ogden attended
the sick child.
1t is simply a sad case of misfortune,
such as are usually taken in hand by
charitable organizations, of (which
there are several in this city, and it is
hoped some of them will act promptly.
For mother to be abandoned by a
rascally husband and left penniless
with sick children among strangers.
thousands of miles from home, is a
condition that should promptly appeal
to the charitable, whether as individ-
uals or as organized bodies.
