Charge of Little One, and Father
is Released.
North Yakima, Wash., April 21.

elty to his child came to light this
week when William Mohr was ar
rested for beating his lQ-year-old
daughter Lillian. The father is now
living with his second wife. He hnd
three children and she had about the
same number of her own before she
married Mohr. On occasions the
authorities have stepped In to prevent
the rather from abusing his children.
It appears that 5Iohr and his wife do
not live happily together. They quar
rel, and it Is said he beats his child
ren. To the neighbors this practice
became intolerable and complaint was
made to the county commlsloncrs.
Mohr was arrested, but was let go
by the authorities providing he would
turn the child over to the home find
ing association of Spokane. He
agreed to this and signed papers de
livering little Lillian to the borne
finding association. This is the second
child that this association has taken
from him. Chairman Llnce of the
board of county commissioners says
hte county will probably have to take
Uie third child from him.
