PORTLAND, Ore, June 14.-The at
tention Of Mrs. Lola F. Baldwin, super
intendent of the department of safety
for girls. has been called by the police
to Mrs. Jessie Reynolds, who has ben
living at the Morrison hotel, East First
and East Horrison-sts.
In looking into the conduct of the
woman, Mrs. Baldwin discovered that
she has an infant daughter four years
old who smokes cigarettes like vet
eran. The child has become so accus-
toned to the use Of tobacco that II she
is without II she becomes fretful and
peevish.
Mrs. Reynolds first came to the no.
tice OF the police about two years ago.
Her husband created disturbance
when he found Nicholas Lown with
his wife. Lown drew a revolver to
protect himself and Reynolds jumped
out OF a second-story window. Suisse
quently Reynolds was sent to the Sa-
lem penitentiary for larceny. Since
then his wife has been giving little
attention TO the care of her children.
Mrs. Baldwin has been unable to
learn where the little one acquired the
habit of using tobacco. The woman
left as soon as she learned that Mrs.
Baldwin was after them. She has
been traced to Seattle. The authori.
ties there will be asked to take pos
