Boy Takes Up Long Walk Again.


Portland, Or, June 15.-Begrimed
with the dust of his 100-mile walk
from Chehalis, Wash, to Portland,
fcotsore, penniless and hungry, IT.
year-old Walter Cosgriff reached this
city Saturday morning, searching for
his aunt, the only relative the boy
has in the world. Mrs. White. his
aunt, is a stenographer. Young Cos
griff walked in on her Saturday while
at her work. She had not seen him
since he was 8 years old, but imme-
diately he had introduced himself she
dropped her work to relieve his con-
dition. Having friends at the Y. M.
c. A., she told him to go there and
take bath while she purchased some
clothing.
Mrs. White made a mistake in d.
recting him to the institution. 1t is
the supposition that the boy, who is
extremely sensitive. when he found
he had been misdirected, thought he
was not wanted and again took up
his weary tramp.
