A SAD SCENE.

People living on PeytOn street, be.
tween King aud Prince, witnessed a sad
scene this morning when 8 youpg
mother, who is suffering from menta'
trouble, walked about the neighborhOod
with her dead female infant In her
arms. The little one had been sick
during the past few days, and this
morning its condition became critical.
The mother picked up the child while
its eyes we're CLASSY and proceeded to
the street, unconscious of the fact that
she was nursing the limp and lifeless
body of her little one. Kind neighbors
persuaded the woman to re-enter her
home, after which the dead baby was
placed upon a bed. In the meantime
Officers Knight and Gsrvey appeared
and sent word to the father OF the child
who was at work on south Lee street.
The surroundings Of the distressed family
added another chapter to the short
aud simple annals of the poor. The
mother of the child wss later taken in
custody, she needing attention in her
present condition.
