SEVEN YEAR OLD IS
LOOKING FOR A JOB
His Present Address Is the Police
Station. Where His Mother Is
Wanted 20 Call.

Word was received from PocatcllO
this afternoon that the boys mother
was about to set out with party OF
citizens 90 drag Snake river, where IL
was supposed the ad had been
drowned. He apparently stepped
aboard a train and came 20 this city
without the knowledge of his parents,
who are now awaiting his return home.
"Oh, I came down from Pocatello
yesterday q get a job o. some kind"
This was the startling declaration
Of 7-year-old Leroy Ford when asked
what he was doing here wandering
about the streets. The little fellow
was found on First South between
state and Main last midnight by "a
policeman. He was taken 60 police
headquarters and every effort was
made 10 locate his parents but without
success The youngst sr was cared for
by the matron, Mr.. clifford, who saw
that he had a bah, something TO eat
ami q E!c5 bed 20 sleep i'm.
This morning the youngster made
himself perfectly at home about police
headquarters and his big blue eyes
stared with wonder at the patroh
wagon, horses and the big men In
brass buttons who moved about the
place He insisted that he was look
ing for a job Of some kind but was
not certain whether he would be O
policeman or a street car motorman.
He said he came from Pocatello with
his mother who was visiting his aunt
a Mrs. Price. who lived somewhere
across the tracks" lie then said the
number OF the house was 800 but
the police were unable 60 locate his
relatives.
That no inquiry was made for him
Is regarded as most remarkable by
the authorities. Up 20 late hour
today no word had been received about
him and the police are az loss TO
account for the apparent indifference
OF the lads mother.
