 Relatives
SEARCHING FOR HER AUNT l

New York, May 31.-(Special.)-A pretty girl of 13 years, well dressed was arraign- ed before Magistrate zeller in the Jeffer- son Market police court today She gave her name as Goldie Baggott, and said that her home was in Birmingham, Ala.
 Her step-father, John Reigger, a railroad official had just secured a pass for her to come to New York and visit her aunt She said that her aunt's address was given to the conductor in whose charge she was placed at Birmingham, and he passed it along to the conductor on whose train she arrived in Jersey City.
 While she was waiting for him to make his report in the Pennsylvania depot at Jersey City today a strange woman talked with her and induced her to take Twenty third street ferry boat for the city. The woman told her that the conductor would meet her there. Little Goldie waited until noon and as the conductor did not appear she began to cry. A policeman noticed her and she was soon in the care of the Gerry society. The child does not know her aunt's present name or her address, but says her maiden name was Kate Reigger.
 Magistrate Zeller committed the child to the Gerry society pending the arrival of the aunt.

CAME TO A CLOSE
Devotions in Honor of the Blessed
 Virgin Mary

The Catholic church dedicates the month of May to the Blessed Virgin Mary and the devotions which were held in her honor every week day during the month came to close yesterday afternoon at half past o'clock. The Rev. Father Ken nedy conducted the devotions at St. Paul's After reading three points of meditation he knelt at the Blessed Virgins altar and re- cited the act of conservation, the congre- gation kneeling making the customary re- sponses. Then followed the litany of the Virgin.
 The devotions being ended the priest ad- vanced to the high altar and gave the benedction of the Blessed Sacrament
 A choir of children in the organ gallery sang sweetly two hymns and a chant. The clouded sky made darkened church and the scene at the high altar, ablaze with candles, was deeply impressive. In connection with the May devotions a | tenderly poetic and beautiful act might | have been observed every morning as the | little girls of the church, on their way to schol, brought flowers with which to deck the altar dedicated to the Queen of Heaven
