The Utter part of last May Ling Ti,

from her father's home at the corner of
Fourth 'and Burnslde streeU by Wong
Lee. The Utter had been a subject of
charity at bar father's bouse, and mean

Then the problem of what to do with

Munlolpal Judge Hogue committed her
to the care of the Boys and Girls' Aid
society. A litUe later an effort was
mad to ret her away from the receiv

not hear of It and determined to flaht
