AFTER AGENT O'BRIEN
lhc State Board of Charities Making
an Investigation.
A CASE AT THE CITY POOR FARM
TTTiicri is Charged to te the Eesnlt of Yerj
Gross Negligence.
WANT CHUDBEX BETTER CAEED FOB
The State Board of Charities is finding
fault with the Humane Society's methods,
and has complained to Secretary Davis, of
the latter, concerning the agent's course.
One young coman was taken ont of the So
ciety's charge yesterday (or rather from the
City Poor Farm, where Agent O'Brien had
placed her) by members of the State Board
of Charities.
These members claim that sufficient care
is not taken in the placing of children by
the Humane Society, and point to the young
woman taken from the City Poor Tarm yes
terday as an awful example of carelessness
or neglect on the part of Agent O Bnen.
About ten months ago a young woman,
who is now 17, was left an orphan by the
death of her mother. She went to lire with
her brother, but he cither would not or
could not keep her, and she went to work
for a woman on Perrysville avenue, Alle
gheny. The sons of the house are alleged
to have corn c home drunk and abused her,
and at last she appealed to the Humane
Society.
Agent O'Brien placed the girl in the
temporary home on Penn avenue for a short
time, and then sent her to live with the
wife of a saloon keeper in Allegheny.
"While tnere the girl suffered a downfall at
the hands of a boarder, a plumber by trade.
The girl says that when the lady of the
house learned of her condition she told her
to keep quiet about the matter and pro
cured medicine for her. It failed ot its
effect, however.
TVHEKE nn SENT HEB.
Then the Humane Agent was called in,
and he sent the girl, who was the Tictim of
an awful malady, to the City Farm. She
is now about well.
The case was brought to the attention of
the State Board of Charities, two of whom
visited the g.rl yesterday at the City Farm
and heard her story.
Last night they called on Secretary
Davidsor and inquired if the Humane So
ciety w ii aware of the fact that its agent
had placed any unprotected children in
saloon boarding houses. The committee
then requested that a more careful ov er
sight be maintained over children, so that
they might not be placed where both health
and morals are ruined.
It is charged by the girl in the case men
tioned that the agent made no effort to
punish the young man whom she charges
with her downfall. The State Board of
Charities, or rather the committee acting in
the 6ae, say that thev are carefully investi
gating the matter and that they will place
the responsibility where it belongs.
AN OFFICIAL QtJEItY.
A member of the State Board of Chari
ties handed the following 10 a DlsrATCH
reporter last night:
The people ot our city had better look a little
more carelullv into details of the benevolences
for which they pa their money and in winch
tliej place confidence. We hear that an agent
of such a society when called upon to protect a
joungprl from the abue of the family In
which she was living, placed her in a saloon
hoarding bouse, where her health and morals
were ruined. Under kind and skillful medical
treatment at the Pittsburg Citj Farm she is
no restored
Querv Are desolate, unprotected children
to he consigned to the tender mercies of saloon
boarding bouses
Querv Are there not suitable men to be ob
tained for these positions of trust, where the
lires and morals of the young may be preserved
