WERE IN DIRE DISTRESS.
Sad Plight of ii Polish Woman mid
Her I'our Children.
Poor Director F. L. Terppe. of the
South Side, had to deal with a pathetic
case of destitution Saturday. A Polish
woman and her four children arrived In
town from Philadelphia and they were
seeking the father, who lives on Cedar
avenue In the Twentieth ward. The
woman was fatigued and the children
were so worn out from the long travel
and scant food that they were almost
famished.
The man works In the breaker, and
earns only a mere livelihood. He had
not expected his family so noon and
was not prepared for their coming. He.
had been sending them small savings
from time to time and thought they
would wait until they hnd enough to
sen them safely to Seranton, but they
started out and upon arriving at Phila
delphia wero penniless. The poor au
thorities there sent them to Seranton.
Poor Director Terppe rented a house
for them at Cedar avenue and Genet
Ft reft ant) cave them an order for
Biucerles. Mrs. Duggau, of the Hoard
of Associated Charities, and Minn Klep
cl. the nurse, also attended to them ana
they are now tn comfortable condition.
Hr. J. A. Munley Is Riving them medical
attendance. The oldest loy, about
years of ape, was very nick, but with
Rood care he will be belter in a few
.!ays. The rumor that the children were
ml ci ted with a malignant form of
measles has been found to be not true.

I to demolish everybody who Interfered
I with him. He further stated thf.t Dun-
sey had a gun and bull dog, and was u
dnngercus man to approach,
i The original cause of all the trouble
! was that the tenant was usked for the
rent and not relishing the dun proceed
ed to resent the Insult by getting drunk
and taking revege out of the landlord's
property.
As the scene of the trouble was across
the border the Seranton police could

BOY LOST HIS MOTHER.
I ivc.Yciir.Old Youu'xter Haiideiing
in illinooku.
At 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon a boy
about f, years old was found wandering
along Main street, Mlnooku, near the
city line and was taken In charge by
R. J. Callery, who afterward turned him
over to the police. Lleptenunt Peter
Hang has him now at the South Side
station house on Alder (struct.
The youngster Is well dressed, but he
Is not capable of giving any definite ac
count of himself and therefore the po
lice are at it loss to know with whom
to communicate. He fays, as near as
can be understood, that his name Is
Johnny Wetzel, that he was out with
Ills mother, and she got on n street
car and lost him. lie said his home is
on Scotch Hill, wherever that Is.
- - -
H!S BOY WAS NOT GUILTY.
Statement of Grocer Heed
llcl'cicnco to His Son,
Ytith
"There was no evidence offered
against my son before Alderman Howe
to show that he wus guilty of assault "
said (Jrocer Ueorge Reed, of Wyoming
nvenue, to n Tribune man yesterday,
"ami consequently he was discharged."
"The boy Is only live years of age
and had been visiting his grandmother
ut 517 Taylor avenue, next door to the
residence ol Robert Hang, the prosecu
tor. The arrest was a bit of spite work
that was intended to humiliate some of
the boy's relatives. It is absurd to
think that it boy of live could commit
an ussuult that would muke It neces
sary to require the intervention of the
law.''
