 10-year-old girl. Mrs. Main, wife oi two years, and the mother of three month-old child, with tears streaming down her face, pleaded with Judge George w. Klett, who was on the bench, to find some way of taking care of her and her little child.
 The little girl told a straightfor- ward story from which she never wavered. Her chum, a girl of about the same age, corroborated her testi- mony Chief Detective Sergeant William c. McCue testified that his investigation had revealed evidence which substantiated the testimony of the girl. He also stated that Main had admitted his guilt. He declined to take the stand and was held under $1,000 bail.
 At this point there was a sensa- tional interruption when Mrs. Main broke down and cried out, Judge, who is going to take care of me and my three -month-old child?" Prose- cutting Attorney Joseph c. Woods at tempted to quiet Mrs. Main when he was requested by the court to let her speak She repeated her statement that she had three -month-old child and had no means of support except from her husbands wages. Tears streamed down the face of the heart broken wife and mother and her form shook with convulsive sobs as she was led from the room by Pro- bation Officer E. c. Connolly and Miss Helen Johnson, after Judge Klett had informed her that MT. Connolly would see that she was cared for.
 She was taken to MT. Connolly's office where she sat and cried bitterly. T don't know what to do,' she said, T can't understand 1t, he never was in trouble before, he was a good man and never had anything to do with the police or the court" Here again she broke down and cried before pro- ceeding. She said she had not the slightest idea where she could find the s1,0o0 bail Her parents, who reside on City avenue, have seven children and have all they can do to take care of the family. T don't know how I can get along" she continued, T don't want them to take my baby from me. either" She said her hus- bands folks live on East Main street but could do no more for her than her own family. She was taken out of the room by Miss Johnson, who told her not to worry that she would be given enough to eat. She said what little wages her husband had coming were just sufficient to pay the rent.
 Two other similar affairs have been to which Main admits, ac- cording to Sergeant McCue It is not known whether he will be prosecuted on these counts or not.
