ACNES HOME Clothing Of Best Texture And Par ents Evidently Well-to-do No Clew To Their Identity As Dr. H. S. Mount was leaving his touring car which he had placed in the parage at his home at 9 o'clock rTiuay ntgnt, ne heard a faint cry, as If coming from the rear o the machine. He looked Into the car and tspied a bundle. He opened the bun dle and there snugly ensconced was a bright-eyed baby girl, about ten days old. Dr. Mount is an authority on babies, but, for the nonce he was puzzled. Then collecting his wits he took the Infant Into the house where it was given every attention. Dr. Mount reported the finding of the baby to Night Policeman Green, and it was finally decided that the best thing to do with it was to take it to a home. So a few minutes later the physician with the foundling snugly wrapped up took It In his auto mobile to St. Agnes' Home at Park place, where It will be tenderly cared for by the sisters. The baby's clothing was of the bet texture and Policeman Gren is of the opinion that its parents are well-to-do. There were no marks or letter ing on the clothing to give a clew to the identity of the Infant's par ents. Policeman Green thinks prob ably that the baby was left in the automobile by a woman w ho came to the city on the 8:27 o'clock train. He found tracks made by a woman near where the automobile stood. Dr. Mount left the automobile In front of his home about 6:30 o'clock. It is thought that the woman got off the rear coach of the train when It stop ped and going through Ninth street saw the automobile, and decided it would be a good place to leave her charge. Rev. R.
