LOST HIS CHILD.
Placed in County Home Ten Years
 A&O--NOW LoOkinS Her Uu.

DotninicO Montezano has started to find his daughter Marie, tell years of age. The man, some years ago placeel his children in the county home, ac- cording to the story he told Attorney Lauber. He was unable to support his family, wife and three children, and the latter~h he placed in the custo- dy of the c6unty hen1e, through an or der issued by the city court. He How finds himself able to support his chf1- dren and wife. and is anxious to, gath CT them together and enjoy their so- c1ety. Two of the. children were re- turned to him from the county home, but the eldest, Marie, seems to have been lost by that institution. The usual disposition was made of Marie as is made. with all children that the home can get rid of. She was placed with an outside family without any record or any date whatever being taken. But there was nothing strange or unusual about that for 1t is the way all children sare sent from the county home: that is aH children who are. old enough to be farmed out and can be sox disposed of. The consequenee. was the same old story. When M6ntsza- no went to get his child, no one, &C., &ording to his story could give. him tlfe slightest information about her. All they knew was that she was given to a. family, but where that family lived, no record was taken of.
