her home. $50 Springfield. avenue, three
days ago, and during that time lived
in a tent In Hillside Park sheltered and
fed by those who cared for her more
than those whom she called father. and
mother. :.
The girl was found early today by
Chief Of Police Flynn. of Belleville. and
turned over to Captain vogel, Of the
Fourth Police Precinct, who in turn.
because she is under age, placed her
in charge Of Probation Onicer John J..
Gascoyne. When he heard her story
he promised to find her ahome in East

be good.
Mary's father, Theodore Auer, is a

visit to relatives in East Orange last
March, when she was accused of steal
ing $1,000 worth of jewels from Mrs.

Both are against Andrew Albright, Jjr.,
and the summons were served upon
him today in his Office. Sc Ferry street,
by officers from the sheriff's Office. The
papers are made returnable on July 5
and the suits will probably be listed for
trial during the September term of the
Circuit Court
One of the actions seeks a balm OF
$25,O 900 from the defendant because Mrs
Ridley says she had a warrant made
out against her before Judge Simon
Hahn March is last in the First Grim
inal Court. and the other action covers
damages In $4,000 more. because on the
same day she was compelled to GO
from the Market street station to the
criminal court under restraint and kept
there for four hours.
Both suits are brought through Lum,
Tamblyn s. Colyer. and others are
likely to follow.
