Robbed Her Benefactor.

Mrs. Mary McQuarrie, whose residence is at 324 O'Farrell street, swore to a complaint before Police Judge Joachimsen yesterday charging Alice Adams with petit larceny. Some time ago Mrs. McQuarrie took the Adams girl from the Magdalen Asylum, with the understanding that she would be provided with good home, and in return would make herself useful about the house. As a return for this kindness the girl ran away, taking with her $35 worth of her benefactor's clothes.

Five Girls Arrested in a House of Ill-Fame.

A raid was made last night by Officers N. Hunter, Hooper, Christie and Adams on the bagnio of the notorious "Mag" Smith, at No. 128 Morton street, with decidedly satisfactory results. In the house were captured the proprietress herself, and five young girls, Nellie Howard, Nellie Allen, Katie Watson, Julia Adams and Mary Connell, the latter being but 14 years of age. Mrs. Smith was charged with admitting minors to a house of ill-tame and placed under a heavy bail. Of the girls but one, Nellie Howard, was over 18 years of age, and she was charged with being an inmate of a house of ill-fame. The others, with the exception of Mary Connell, ranged in years between 16 and 18 years, and were charged with visiting a place or bad repute. Mary Connell, on account of her youth and the unusual amount of depravity which she exhibited, was booked for the Magdalen Asylum. All took their arrest philosophically, and showed a tolerable familiarity with the interior of the prison.

Miss Adams Was Romancing.

Edward Lee, the young man who was arrested Sunday night on a charge of robbery for stealing a silver ring valued at $1 from Marie Adams, a girl 17 years of age, appeared before Judge Moran yesterday. After hearing the girl's story, who said she did not want to prosecute Lee, as he was her friend, the Judge dismissed the case. The girl's mother, who lives at 609 Post street, was in court and said her daughter was inclined to be wayward and tell romantic stories, and asked that she be sent to the Magdalen Asylum. The Judge ordered the girl into custody and will probably send her to the institution to-day.

Escaped Dec 25, 1869.

A MISSION ROMANCE.

Arabella Allen Wants to Marry One of the Sheas.

A pathetic scene, replete with tears and wailing, was enacted behind the bars of the City Prison yesterday morning.

The participants in this lachrymose feast were James Allen, his wife and son and their wayward daughter, Arabella. The latter was encaged in a cell and was awaiting transfer to the Magdalen Asylum. The Allen home is at 125 Clinton street, and this is within the hunting-ground of the famous Shea gang, so notoriously known and feared by all residents of the Mission. It is a red-letter day when some one of this gang is not incarcerated behind the prison bars.

Paddy Shea is one of the leaders and has lately evinced a partiality for the blossom of the Allen family, little seventeen-year-old Arabella. The girl is pretty and just getting into long dresses—has those lovely, deep blue eyes, to be found nowhere save among the natives of that tight little emerald isle across the pond. She is spirited and blythe and winsome, and the tails [sic] of midnight raids and all night debauches poured into her eager ears by her bold lover have gained for him a spot in her warm little heart. She loves Pat Shea, the terror of the Mission, and yesterday sho was wrangling with her heartbroken parents for permission to marry him rather than be sent to the dreaded "mag."

"She is going the ways of those Sheas," said the weeping father to an EXAMINER reporter yesterday, "and we have lately discovered that when we were all abed Paddy Shea would wait under her window for her to throw him out some of her clothing, which the blackguard would sell and get drunk with the money. The girl's so infatuated that she would marry him tomorrow. but the scamp will not marry her if I can help it."

In answer to the reporter's questions Arabella would only say that she loved Paddy and wanted to marry him, and that he had always treated her "good."

A Wayward Daughter.

Edna Amerman, a girl 15 years old, was sent to the Magdalen Asylum yesterday by Police Judge Low on the request of the girl's mother, Mrs. S. M. Barnes of 804 Larkin street. The girl ran away from home several months ago and was married by contract to Amerman, who is now in prison. The mother works for a living, and when she is away from home her daughter runs off and associates with immoral people. Mrs. Barnes' only object in sending the girl to a reformatory is to save her if possible.

The final crime that earned Mary Avery a spot in San Francisco newspapers happened in May 1879. On that occasion, Avery and a friend by the name of Marcella Columbia were arrested for drunkenness after being located on the roof of a Jessie Street building with a group of “small boys screaming and swearing at the top of their voices.” The boys got away, but Avery and Columbia weren’t fast enough. They didn’t help their own situation, spewing forth a series of curse words at their arresting officers. (“The round oaths which fell in a continuous stream from their lips were shocking in the extreme,” the Chronicle reported.)

This may be the precise moment that Avery’s luck ran out. She was swiftly incarcerated at San Francisco’s Magdalen Asylum.

VICTIMS OF MORPHINE.

An Unfortunate Woman Who Is a Slave to the Baneful Habit.

Agnes Baker, a woman twenty-three years of age, was yesterday, for the third time within the last eight months, before the Commissioners of Lunacy. She is a confirmed morphine fiend, and her dissipated looks show the terrible effects of her habit. She is a married woman, but her husband deserted her less than a year ago. Shortly afterward she became addicted to the opium habit and then commenced to use morphine. Her parents were unable to accomplish any reform, and they were compelled to take her before the Commissioners of Lunacy. After her examination and before she was committed she begged her mother to send her to the Magdalen Asylum, where she had been before, instead of to an insane asylum. Her request was granted, and she played a clever trick to evade her confinement. The officer who accompanied her to the Magdalen Asylum was unacquainted with her traits, and when she asked him to wait she asked for admittance he immediately acquiesced. She remained talking with the Sisters for an hour, and the officer, thinking that everything was all right, departed, She, however, had no intention of remaining at the institution, and after the lapse of an hour went home and made matters very lively there. She was then arrested and sent to the Napa Insane Asylum, where she remained two months and was discharged as cured.

After her discharge she used the drug again, and her parents took steps once more to have her confined to the insane asylum. She eluded the officers for two months, and yesterday she was brought before the Commissioners of Lunacy for for examination. She begged hard to be allowed to go on probation and her request was granted.

TIRED OF CONFINEMENT.

Lilian Baldwin Escapes From the Hospital.

Lilian Baldwin, 17 years old, an inmate of the City and County Hospital, escaped from that institution last Sunday night about 8 o'clock. The girl was sent to the hospital from the industrial department of the Magdalen Asylum and was suffering from a skin disease. She escaped through one of the. windows of the bathroom connected with ward L, the one to which she was assigned, and must have climbed the wall surrounding the hospital grounds. The wall is a very high one, and for that reason the physicians in charge think she must have received assistance from the outside. Her disappearance was reported to the police.

WAS PRETTY BUT WAYWARD.

THE ARREST OF A MAGDALEN FUGITIVE.

Annie Banales Scales the Wall of the Institution, but Is Recaptured.

Annie Banales, alias Nettie Dowd, a pretty but wayward 15-year-old girl, who was recently committed to the Magdalen Asylum by Police Judge Campbell, escaped from that institution Monday night. Yesterday she was found in a lodging-house on Sixth street by Officers McMurray and Holbrook of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, and returned to the asylum.

Notwithstanding her tender years the girl has frequently come under the notice of the police. A short time ago she went to San Jose and represented herself as Nettle Dowd, the daughter of a well- known banker of that name. She told a pitiful story of being cast adrift by her parent and compelled to seek the charity of strangers. Several women interested themselves in her behalf, and after supplying her with clothes, procured a situation for her in a private family. A few days later the girl stole a purse of money belonging to her employer. She immediately came to this city and was arrested in a lodging-house on Fourth street.

As the woman from whom she stole the purse refused to prosecute her it was decided to send the girl to the Magdalen Asylum.

Fannie Bashford Is Charged With Numerous Petty Thefts.

Several nights ago Detective Rogers took Fannie Bashford into custody be cause of several crooked transactions in which she played the principal part. The Bashford girl is only 19 years old, but she is as wayward as she is pretty. She was charged with petit larceny last evening, but many more serious charges can and may be placed against her..

The girl is a half-orphan. Her father is now an inmate of an insane asylum. For the last two years she has been supported by a wealthy man. Recently he tired of her and turned her adrift. Several kind-hearted ladies who became interested in the girl suffered for their kindness, for she stole from their houses.

The girl first came to the notice of the police about a year ago, when she was sent to the Magdalen Asylum. As soon as she got out she began operations as a thief. Among her victims is Mrs. Kingsland of 14184 Howard street, from whom she stole money and two gold lockets. She took the photographs of Mrs. Kingsland's two deceased babies from the lockets and hid the lockets in a closet until she could get away with the plunder. These were recovered alter the girl's arrest.

Mrs. Scott, who lives at 1416 Howard street, wanted to get her gold watch repaired and Miss Bashford offered to take it to a jeweler's. She took it to a pawnbroker instead and pawned it for $10. Mr. Potter of 6 Sutter street is poorer by which the girl took from his purse. Another victim is Thomas Ganey, a laundry-man, from whom she stole a diamond locket which she pawned for $12. Mrs. Hess, who lives on Kearny street, wanted to befriend the girl, and took her to her room. Miss Bashford found that Mrs. Hess had an account at a large dry goods house, and purchased $62 worth of goods on Mrs. Hess' account. Mrs. Hess pitied the girl's apparent distress and paid the bill.

These are only a few of the victims. The young woman takes the situation in which she is placed very coolly.

THE NEW MAGDALEN.

A Young Girl's Unhappy Lot—The Story of a Basket Foundling Told In the Police Court—An Engagement Ring Recalled.

Clara Beck, a young girl aged 16, was brought before the Police Judge yesterday on complaint of her adopted mother. An interesting history of the young girl and the circumstances attending her life was developed. It appeared that in January, 1859, on a cold morning, a man named Al G. Beck found on the doorstep of his house on Mission street a basket which contained a female infant. A slip of brown paper was pinned to the garments of the child, and contained the following words, written in a scrawling and almost illegible hand: "I have no father or mother take care of me. I am two weeks old." After some years of married life Beck and his wife were divorced on husband's complaint. The waif was given over to the care of the mother at her request, she having conceived an attachment and after having children of her own did not accord to the little waif as much of a mother's care as had previously been her lot to receive, and the young girl, not liking the treatment she received, left her home about two months since and sought her former foster-father, to whom she related her troubles. He clothed her anew and sent her back to her adopted mother. In a week she left again, however, and never returned. She was recovered by an officer the other night in a room on Ritch street. She begged not to be sent to the Magdalen Asylum, but her adopted mother was earnest in her desire to send her there. She asserted that the girl was only thirteen years of age, and in support of her assertion produced a slip of paper which she stated was the identical one found on the child in the basket. Mr. Beck, the adopted father, was brought into Court and declared that the piece of paper was a forgery. He did not desire to see the young girl committed to the Asylum, but thought she would be happier there than at her home.

A young man named McPherson testified that he had been engaged to the girl, but on learning that she was given to running around with bad boys and girls, recalled his engagement ring.

The girl, who is very pretty, has a vicious temper, looked up at the young man, remarking: "Umph, he wants a girl to stick to one feller. I aint that kind of a girl, I aint."

She was accordingly committed and left the Court-room assuring everybody that she would be "badder'n ever, now."

Placed in Asylum by her mother, removed by her July 3, 1869.

Parents died when quite young leaving some small means in the hands of the Sisters of Mercy for the support of her and a younger Sister in Mount St. Vincent's Orphanage. At 15 years she was apprenticed to a dressmaker & boarded with a Sister of the Mother's but she dying soon after the poor child fell into the hands of an indifferent sort of woman so that she felt unhappy & some acquaintances coming to New York she joined (with the approval of the Sisters) them & soon got into a situation in a nice family. But her duty of walking out with the children exposed her & so she became the victim of some gentlemen who provided her with a well furnished house, servant & every comfort promising soon to marry her. Things went on this way five or six months when a lady closely veiled & when (she since found was his wife) called & told her he was married and had a very large family she felt so indignant that she left the house at once & never again saw him. She went for her confinement to one of the City Hos. where the Sisters of Charity saw her & she made her Confession. But alas after the death of her Infant when two months old she relapsed again & finally came to Cal. with an infamous woman who keeps a den on Dupont St. She was only 2 weeks in this place when on the Feast of the Assumption (not knowing the fact) she took the sudden determination of making her escape & heaving off her grandeur ran with nothing but a gauze veil around her to the archbishop's house & begged the Priests to protect her. She was immediately sent to the Asylum. Dora Wilson was the name she took when leading a life of sin. Sent to live with Mrs. Cas[hman] July 12, 1871.

Returned to Magdalen Asylum Nov. 14, 1871. Sent to Mrs. Hastings Dec. 29, 1871. Dead. RIP.

Sent by Father Croke, was found to be quite idiotic and therefore sent to the Alms House March 29, 1870.

Found on the roadside in a state of intoxication and covered with scratches and dirt, discharged next day.

No Talking Allowed.

On Saturday last Maggie Smith filed a petition in the Superior Court for a writ of habeas corpus on behalf of Mary Birmingham, and alleged in her petition that Mary was an adult person, being 19 years of ago, and unlawfully imprisoned at the Magdalen Asylum. She also set forth that Mary was committed in 1875, to remain there until she was legally discharged by the Police Judge, and that she reached the age of 19 in November, 1880. On the 5th day of May, 1881, an order was issued by the Board of Supervisors directing that Mary be discharged, but when the order was presented to the head person at the Asylum it was not obeyed, and Maggie was not allowed to talk to Mary, wherefor she prayed for Mary's release. The hearing of the case was set for 10 o'clock yesterday morning in Judge Hunt's Court, and it then appearing that Mary was not of legal age, and that her term was not yet concluded, the writ was dismissed, and Mary was sent back to the Asylum.

Ran away Dec. 4, 1863.

This ought to be a respectable woman having many advantages, but all are destroyed by an unhappy propensity for drink. Her husband placed her in the Asylum, hoping she might be influenced by the instructions she would receive, although she is not a Catholic. Left December 30, 1871.

Left Jan. 2, 1867.

This poor woman (a confirmed drunkard) had spent six months in the County Jail and of her own accord requested admission into the asylum, but she acted in such an indecent manner after the first day or two that she had to be dismissed Oct. 29, 1870.

Sent by Archbishop, but removed by her mother March 12, 1868.

MAY GIVE ALL THE GIRLS THEIR LIBERTY.

A Writ Involving the Question of Whether the Magdalen Asylum Is the Industrial School.

Maud Bloodworth, the sixteen-year-old daughter of Enoch Bloodworth, was before the Supreme Court yesterday on the petition of the father that she be released from the Magdalen Asylum on habeas corpus. She was committed to the asylum last April by Judge Mogan on a charge of vagrancy to remain there until she was 15 years old. Her father aided by Lawyer Herman J. Custer, now seeks her release. The main points of contention appeared to be as to whether the Magdalen Asylum was the Industrial School under the terms of the new charter, and had the Mother Superior been appointed its superintendent by the Supervisors.

Matt J. Sullivan, who appeared for the asylum, held that the Industrial School, under the law. was a department and not a building, on the same lines as the School Department was not any particular building. He claimed that the application before the court was a part of a scheme to secure the wholesale release of the forty or fifty inmates.

Custer denied that such was his purpose and held that the Magdalen Asylum was not the Industrial School within the meaning of the law.

The lawyers were given five days to present law and evidence as to what Justice Beatty termed the "crucial point." whether the institution was recognized by the charter as the Industrial School, the charter having superseded all other municipal laws, and if it be the Industrial School, has the Mother Superior been appointed superintendent of it by the Supervisors.

She was found in a lodging-house of doubtful character by the police, and was allowed to return to her home on promising to lead a proper life.

YOUNG AND FAIR.

But Emma Brewer Has Been Keeping Bad Company.

Emma Brewer, aged 17, wayward and attractive to certain habitues of Howard and Third streets, was arrested by Officer Wells last night and taken to the new City Hall Prison. She was booked for some public institution and will probably be sent to the Magdalen Asylum.

Emma has been called in out of the cold world by police officers on several previous occasions, and each time she has been set at liberty on promise of better and more decorous behavior.

But her pledges have proved more brittle than those of the average candidate, and therefore it is now proposed by those interested in her future welfare to place her beyond the reach of the wiles of wicked men.

A PORTLAND GIRL.

ARRESTED BY THE POLICE IN THIS CITY.

Ellen Bryan Sent by Her Parents to the Magdalen Asylum Here, But Nearly Escapes.

Ellen Bryan, a very pretty young girl from Portland, Or., was taken into custody by Officer Anthony yesterday afternoon, and late in the evening transferred from the city prison to the Magdalen Asylum. She was found in a room at the St. George Hotel on Kearny street, and was quite willing to accompany the police officer. She expected his arrival before, and asked him why he had not met her at the boat on her arrival in the city on August 4th.

"I was told an officer would meet me when I arrived," she said, "but I didn't see any one, and I went off by myself. I guess you must be great policemen, here."

An explanation of this remark was given by Officer Anthony, who said that the girl belonged to a good family of Portland. She is but 16 years old, and only a few months ago was led astray by Jim Ellis, a notorious character of Portland, who induced her to run away with him to Astoria, where he placed her in a house of prostitution conducted by Kate Burke, a former San Francisco landlady, who was known here as Maggie Ryan, She was recovered by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children of Portland, and returned to her home. The girl's shame was too much for her parents, and as she showed a disposition to continue her evil ways they obtained permission to send her to this city as an inmate of the Magdalen Asylum. The girl was sent by one of the coast steamers, but the Portland authorities neglected to notify the police in this city. She fully expected to meet a police officer on her arrival, but not doing so she went off with a young woman whose acquaintance she made on the boat. Needing some clothing, she wrote to her mother, stating that she was at the asylum, liked it very well, and asking for her trunk. The trunk was sent as requested. The mother wrote at the time to the police here asking them to look after the girl in case everything was not all right, and mentioning in the letter that the trunk had been sent to the St. George Hotel. Anthony found her about the time an expressman drove up with the trunk.

Brought by her mother. Left Jan. 23, 1872.

Mrs Kearney however, not suspecting her, made arrangements with a very fine lady who kept a hair establishment who engaged her at $9 a week and she was to live at Mrs. Kearney's but Mrs. K, having some fears that it was her own fault to be late coming home at night called on her employer to examine into it, and of course, knowing this would bring the truth to light, ran away from the store when she saw Mrs. K and her employer in a conversation and though the police were immediately put on the lookout for her she was not discovered till about 11 o'clock on the night of the 21st and the next day was brought here.

PRECOCIOUS MABEL CADY.

A Willful Young Miss Who Declines to Live With Her Parents.

A bright and rather pretty young girl was up before Police Judge Joachimsen yesterday to explain why she should not be committed to the Magdalen Asylum for a few years. She had been arrested by request of her mother, who said she had been disobedient and inclined to seek bad company.

"What is your name?" asked Prosecuting Attorney Long.

"Mabel Cady," answered the girl smiling and showing a double row of regular, white teeth.

"Why are you disobedient to your mother?" asked his Honor.

This started the girl on her story. She said that her mother, Elizabeth Marks, was given to drink, while her stepfather beat her. Her mother had on Monday night last said that she might go to the infernal regions for all she cared.

"I want to go to work and I don't want go home," she said, finally, the tears welling up in her eyes.

Mrs. Marks, the mother, being called Mrs. upon, proved to be a portly woman with a rather hard face.

She denied being given to inebriety and said her daughter was seeking bad company and would go astray unless she was placed in some institution.

"You do drink," interrupted the girl, "and I'm not bad. I would be willing to stay home, only you allow my father to strike me and then you abuse me yourself."

"I don't, Mabel."

"You do."

It appeared from the statement of the arresting officer, and an elderly gentleman who claimed to be a friend of the family, that Miss Mabel was associating with objectionable young men.

"How old are you, Mabel?" asked the Court.

"Fourteen years," put in the mother.

His Honor was in a quandary. To send the girl to the Magdalen Asylum would hardly better her condition, while to release her might mean the girl's ruin.

Miss Mabel finally suggested that she had a place awaiting her with a lady on Polk street, which she would accept if released. It was decided to lay the case over for one day. In the mean time the lady named will be communicated with. If she will receive the girl the case will be dismissed. If not Miss Mabel will go to the Boys and Girls' Aid Society.

An Uncontrollable Girl.

Margaret Case, an eleven-year-old girl who cannot be controlled by her parents, has been sent to the Magdalen Asylum by Judge Lawler. Some time ago she ran away from the Orphan Asylum, where she had been sent by her parents.

In 1857 we sent this woman home to her parents in order to break off a sinful connection (she was previously married but deserted by her husband) & supposed her still in Ireland when unexpectedly applied again for admission into the Asylum & we then found had remarried in Cork but one year. Left Oct 3 & got respectable employment.

Begged to be admitted, case same as No. 331 (Jane Carroll, drinking habit). Left Jan. 27, 1869.

Sent by Archbishop to save her from marrying a man who was already married and with whom she was infatuated, removed by her sister Mrs. Gilermaster Nov. 15, 1868.

Adelaide Cazueau tried to escape her fate, and yesterday a man, William A. Shade, obtained a marriage license for himself and her, Cupid Danforth requiring that the girl's father should appear and give his formal consent to the union, as she is only 15 years old. Judge Slack investigated her record and found that she had been committed to the Industrial School and recently escaped from the Magdalen Asylum. Since then she had been living with Shade. Altogether the court decided that the girl would have a better chance of reform at Whittier than as Shade's wife, and consequently the services of Rev. Dr. Spaulding, who was present to perform the marriage at once, were not required.

Three Girls in Custody.

Rosie Chilini, 15 years old, and Theresa Dollin, 16, who escaped about two weeks ago from the matron of the Girls' Training School while on the way to church, were recaptured yesterday morning in a room at 925 Howard street by Policemen M. Cooney and J. Conion. They had stocked the room with coal, flour and other supplies, in the evident hope of enjoying a prolonged season of liberty. Police Judge Conlan committed them yesterday to the Magdalen Asylum.

Kitty Conley [Connolley], 16 years old, who ran away from her home about a week ago, was taken into custody at 17 Stockton street by Officers McMurray and Coleman. She also was sent to the Magdalen Asylum.

NOTE: On Ancestry, I found a Rose Gatto (née Chelini) who lived in SF and died in 1945, buried in Holy Cross Cemetery in Colma.

CORA CHRISTAL.

Experiences of a Seventeen-Year Old Girl.

Cora Christal, 17 Years old, pretty, though showing marks of dissipation and ill treatment, and poorly dressed, was brought to the City Prison yesterday morning by Officer McManus and locked up for vagrancy. A year ago she was arrested for the same offense—that being the only charge through which such cases as hers can be reached—but managed to keep out of the Magdalen Asylum by marrying a young man who called himself Peter Savage. This man supported her for a few months, after which he sought to have the position of provider for the family shifted to her shoulders. He took her to Oroville, where they remained several months. Since her return to this city the girl has been frequenting opium joints and other disreputable places in company with opium fiends and similar characters.

Lane Will Go Free.

Captain Peter F. Lane will not be punished for alleged complicity in assaults on little girls at North Beach. His trial for an alleged assault on Eva Quinasso resulted yesterday in an acquittal. The jury was instructed to return such a verdict after a showing had been made that Lane was incapable of committing the crime alleged.

The girl, Julia Christensen, who refused on Tuesday to testify, was not again called to the stand yesterday. It was recognized that a commitment for contempt would be of no avail, as the girl would rather be a prisoner in jail than continue an inmate of the Magdalen Asylum.

Several charges are still pending against Lane, but they will be dismissed.

Left Jan. 21, 1872.

Ran away July 27, 1858, because No. 16 (Philomena McLaughlin) and she were enemies to each other.

Sent by her parents to prevent her from marrying a married man. Taken home by her mother Dec. 6, 1868. A Protestant.

Returned to Magdalen Asylum June 2, 1869. Had been placed in one of the Catholic Convent Schools but having shown out, pretty soon she was expelled and seeing she could soon become a complete libertine her friend again placed her in the Asylum. Removed by her friends on the 30th of January 1871.

Given Her Own Choice.

Judge Colley yesterday ordered Maggie Cravens, the young woman whose parents applied to bave her sent to Napa, to be committed to the Magdalen Asylum pending a further and final disposition of her case.

The Commissioners of Lunacy were inclined to think the girl not insane, while Dr. Jewell, of the Home for the Inebriate, under whose care she has been for some time, insisted that she was, though having rational intervals.

Her parents were only anxious that she might be confined somewhere, in order to save her from a vicious life. Judge Colley finally told the girl to choose for herself as to the place of her restraint, committing her to the Magdalen Asylum until she shall finally make up her mind.

An Unknown Friend.

Emma Kennedy filed a petition in the Superior Court on Wednesday for a writ of habeas corpus in behalf of Johannah Crenin imprisoned at the Magdalen Asylum, on the ground that Johannah was over age and entitled to her dismissal. The matter came up before Judge Evans yesterday morning, but the petitioner did not appear, and no one connected with the case knew who she was. It transpired that Johannah, at the age of 16, in 1879, was sent to the Magdalen Asylum by her father, because she had been led astray and was leading too wild a life. She became of age in February last, but her father did not apply for her release and so she remained at that institution. Yesterday when asked by the Judge whether she would stay at the asylum or go with her father, she replied that she would not go back if she could help it. The living was extremely poor and she had rather be in prison than there. Judge Evans told her that she was at liberty to go where she pleased and that she was of age and her own mistress.

Left March 30, 1869.

ALICE CURTIN.

Solicitous Friends Try to Have Her Leave the Magdalen Asylum.

Judge Maguire has dismissed a writ of habeas corpus issued at the request of C. A. Rogers and designed to secure the release of Alice Curtin, alias Alice Carr, who, it was alleged, was illegally imprisoned at the Magdalen Asylum. The writ was issued on Saturday and returned yesterday morning, when the Sister Superior brought the girl into court. It was claimed by Rogers that the girl had never been committed by any Court to the asylum and, as she was of good moral character, he did not think it right for her to be confined in such an institution.

The girl told Judge Maguire that both her parents were dead and Mrs. Carr had taken care of her for more than six years, although she had never adopted her. Recently Mrs. Carr went to Hollister and left her in charge of Sister Mary Brown, who teaches a day school at the Magdalen Asylum, where Alice is receiving instruction. Several female friends had had the writ of habeas corpus sued out, but the girl informed Judge Maguire that she was well taken care of and that she did not wish to leave the asylum, because if she did she did not know where she would go. The Court dismissed the writ and remanded the girl to the custody of the Sisters.

The Girl Hannah Curtin.

Efforts are being made to have Hannah Curtin released from the Magdalen Asylum, where she was committed at the time of the shooting of Johnson by her father. A petition has been presented to Judge Louderback, who has not acted upon it at present.

REFUSED A KISS.

Sad Scene Between a Mother and Daughter at the Southern Police Station.

A sad scene was witnessed in Captain Spillane's office at the Southern Police Station early yesterday morning.

Lena Cutting, a girl about 18 years of age, had been sent some days ago to Sister Julia's Sheltering Arms, on Harrison street, till her trouble was over, but she made so much disturbance that Sister Julia was compelled early yesterday morning to send for her mother, Mrs. Cutting, 1220 Pacific street, to take her away.

Sister Julia, Mrs. Cutting and the girl were driven in a hack to Captain Spillane's office, and the mother asked the captain's advice. The girl was flippant and defiant and so exasperated the captain that it required all his self-restraint to keep him from giving her a good shaking.

As Mrs. Cutting was leaving she went close up to the girl and said, "Kiss me, Lena."

"No, I won't," she snapped; "you've done me dirt."

As the mother went away crying the captain called an officer and told him to lock the girl up in prison. She will be sent to the Magdalen Asylum to-day.

Before leaving the paternal roof she was induced to steal $65, a gold watch and chain and several articles of jewelry. The girl returned to this city yesterday saddened by her experience. She said that she and her soldier lover went to Stockton. His name is Walter J. St. Clair, but he is called Flagley. St. Clair had no money, but he squandered the stolen coin without stint, pawned the valuables and spent the proceeds, and then deserted the confiding girl. She had only money enough to get home. The girl was sent to the Magdalen Asylum by Judge Joachimsen. Her father swore out a warrant for the soldier's arrest for stealing the money and selling the jewelry. The girl states that St. Clair confessed to her that he had deserted three times from the army, twice in the East and once here.

Harry Brooks was held in $2000 bonds by Judge Rix yesterday to answer a charge of felony, for enticing Lizzie Davis, a young girl, away from her home, at 923 Natoma Street, and placing her in a bagnio [brothel] to support him. The girl, who was recently committed to the Magdalen Asylum, testified against her betrayer, and told the story of her wrongs.

A WAYWARD GIRL.

Leoni Davolles Sold Her Mother's Furniture to Get Money for Liquor.

Leoni Davolles, 16 years of age, was sent to the Magdalen Asylum yesterday by Judge Campbell. Leoni, although young, has developed an insatiable thirst for liquor, and to provide herself with funds she used to steal things from her mother's house at 33 Chenery street and sell them.

Monday afternoon her mother left home for a few hours, and during her absence Leoni got an expressman to convey all the furniture in the house to a second-hand store on Pacific street, where she sold it for a few dollars.

She was arrested by Corporal Shanahan, who turned her over to Secretary Kane of the Pacific Coast Society for the Suppression of Vice. The mother was in court yesterday and offered to take care of the girl, but the Judge thought that the Magdalen Alylum was the proper place for her.

Her mother died when she was an infant, her father placed her with Joahanna Murphy but neglected of paying for her for many years and is supposed to be dead. J. Murphy died in Nov. 1868. Sent to Mrs. Kelly (Jail San Francisco), June 16, 1870.

A GIRL BETRAYED.

Henry Flynn's Arrest for Ruining Mary Derringer.

Henry Flynn, a young man who has been employed as a piano player in various underground resorts, was arrested by Officers Anthony and Hook yesterday and charged with felony.

The charge was preferred by the sister of Mary Derringer, who was taken out of a house of ill fame on Dupont street last Friday by Officer Hook and booked at the city prison for the Magdalen Asylum: It is claimed that after ruining the girl, who is under 18 years of age, Flynn persuaded her to become an inmate of the brothel where she was found, and was living from the wages of her sin when apprehended.

Flynn claims that he did not seduce the girl and that she entered the place of ill repute of her own free will. He was anxious to marry her, however, but Mary would not listen to the proposition, and intends upon gaining her liberty to make an honest living.

A half-witted creature placed in the Asylum by her family to preserve her from a dissipated soldier who was following her. They sent her soon after to friends in the Country.

DESERVEDLY REWARDED.

A Rash Attempt to Take a Girl from the Magdalen Asylum.

On Friday morning George N. Webb, who claims to be an upholsterer, and recently from Oakland, appeared before Judge Murphy and swore out a writ of habeas corpus on behalf of Margaret Dix, who, he claimed, was illegally restrained of her liberty in the Magdalen Asylum. He states that he desired her release so that he might marry her. The writ was granted. Yesterday morning Officer Burke brought the the young woman into Court. Webb, much to the surprise of everybody, was conspicuous by his absence. The girl testified that she was over 18 years of age, but was staying at the asylum of her own free will. She had no desire to go with Webb. These statements caused Judge Murphy to institute a search for the missing young man. He was found and brought into Court. He admitted that he did not know of his own knowledge that she was detained at the asylum. The Court suggested that he be arrested for perjury, which was accordingly done, and the rash youth was locked up below. The girl was then allowed to return to the asylum.

From admissions made by both parties It is ascertained that Webb is one of that class of loathsome creatures who desire to live off the earnings of fallen women. He originally placed the young woman in a house of ill fame from whence she was taken by her father and placed in the Magdalen Asylum.

YOUNG AND VICIOUS.

Sixteen-Year-Old Jessie Dixon Consorts With Low Characters.

A young girl of slight build, slovenly in her appearance, with a hang-dog air about her that saddened the heart of his Honor, who has a fatherly interest in all young criminals, appeared before Judge Rix yesterday for commitment to the Magdalen Asylum. Jessie Dixon was her name and sixteen years her age. It is only about six months ago that her mother, a respectable woman of San Diego, unable to control her wayward daughter, sent her to this city to the care of the Rescue Home, an institution for the reformation of such offenders, located on Liberty street.

For a few weeks Jessie submitted to the rules imposed by the Rev. Mr. Ellsworth, Superintendent of the Home, and then left, choosing her associates from among a gang of hoodlums that infests the Mission. Her conduct attracted the attention of the police and four months ago they arrested and booked her for the Industrial School. On the hearing of the case Mr. Ellsworth, counting on the girl's youth to wean her from her vicious habits, induced Judge Rix to give her another chance.

But the girl was beyond reformation, and took advantage of the first opportunity to escape. For months past she has been living in a disreputable lodging-house on Fourth street, and associating with women many years her senior and of disreputable life. Latterly she took up with Maggie Hammith, and in company with her has frequented nightly and often, until late in the morning, a resort on Mission street patronized exclusively by dissolute negroes. In this place the pair were found yesterday morning by Officers Crockett and Dillon and placed under arrest.

From the girl's conduct when taken before Judge Rix yesterday morning it would appear that she is incapable of feeling the sensation of shame. His Honor talked to her in a way calculated to make her feel remorse for her conduct and manner of life, but all he got for his pains was a shrug of indifference. The only interest she manifested in the proceedings that were about to confine her until she should arrive at her majority was when the question of age arose. The officers testified that she was fourteen, but the girl insisted that she was two years older, and her word was taken. She remarked, as she went down into the jail, that it was only a matter of two years in the "Mag," and then she could live as she liked.

The Hammeth woman was sent to the House of Correction for three months for vagrancy.

A LITTLE GIRL PROUD TO BE BAD.

Eva Doherty, Thirteen Years Old, and a Criminal With a Long Record.

Boasts of the Fact That She Is the Toughest Girl in San Francisco.

LAUGHS AT WOULD BE REFORMERS.

A Juvenile Pilferer Who Boasts of the Circumstance of Her Precocious Criminality.

Within the walls of the City Prison is the toughest girl in San Francisco, the police say. Her name is Eva Doherty, her age is 13 years, and her record as a criminal would put to the blush that of many a man confined behind the bars at San Quentin or Folsom.

What is more, this precocious criminal is proud of her record, boasts of her prowess as a thief and laughs in the faces of the kindly-disposed people who seek to point out to her the error of her ways.

"They make me tired," she says. "It's a wonder they wouldn't get onto themselves and go talk to a church or something that's not next."

And then she unblushingly tells of some of her more daring exploits in the way of thievery, and with much gusto details the riotous manner in which she squanders her Ill-gotten wealth.

"I guess I am in for it this time," she said yesterday, "but then they can't send me up for more than five years, and when I get out you can bet your life I'll make things lively for a while. They've got to be pretty foxey to get me to prison. They're liable to lose me on the way."

The girl's last exploit, and the one for which she will have to answer in the Superior Court to-day, was the robbing of her employer, Mrs. A. Klinkner, of $200 worth of jewelry and $30 in money. She immediately left the city, made several short rail- road journeys, stopped at several good hotels, indulged to the full her passion for horseback riding and finally fell into he clutches of the authorities at Napa. She arrived in this city early yesterday morning in charge of Detective Anthony, and a few hours later was taken before Police Judge Joachimsen, who held her to answer to the Superior Court on a charge of grand lar ceny. To-day she will be committed to the Whittier Reform School until she attaine her majority.

"I'd rather go to the Mag." — meaning the Magdalen Asylum — "but if they say Whittler that goes. I'll never kick," was the way she expressed herself when informed of the fate in store for her.

The first notable chapter in the criminal history of this child occurred almost two years ago when she broke in the door of her mother's room with an axe, stole $24 in cash, and took the first train for the interior.

"It was this way" she said, when asked to relate the occurrence. "I got sick of staying at home, so I just broke into the old woman's room and took the stuff, and then skipped. Did I have a good time? Well, I guess yes. I went to Stockton, got a room in a lodging- house and blew myself for further orders. And, say, they never would a-ketched me either if I didn't fall off of a safety. I was doing the grand one afternoon a riding on a bicycle and was just coming back when I made a bobble and over I went. I was a brushing the dust offen myself when a cop come up and asked me did I hurt myself. I says 'no' and then he gives me a tough look an' says, 'What's your name?" I was on in minute, and so I tells him a string of lies that would kill you dead. I guess he was next, for he takes me to the prison and kept me there three days before they brought me back here. That safety was what queered me."

As a punishment for this Eva was sent to one of the Christian missions, where she stayed three months and then ran away. Later she was given employment by a family living in the Western Addition, but after staying a couple of weeks, she stole $12 and some valuables and ran away. From that time up to the date of her employment by Mrs. Klinkner she spent a portion of her time at home and at other places unknown to her family. She never failed to vary the monotony of daily existence by committing small thefts and engaging in all kinds of juvenile lawlessness. After robbing Mrs. Kilnkner she went to Berkeley.

"I went there," she explained, because the cops never look in those small towns for people they hunt for. I stayed at a bangup hotel every night, and in the day I would go horseback riding. I always went a-horseback because it's good fun, and I wanted to see the country, and besides if any cop got onto me I could give him the shake easy. I got tired of Berkeley after a while, so I thought I would go to Napa. Buy my own ticket? Well, I guess yes. That's dead easy. When I gets to Napa I goes to the Palace hotel, and there the cops pinches me. A woman that knowed me give me away and here I am."

"You know, of course, that it is wrong to steal?"

"Oh, come off. You talk like the Salvation Army. Do you think I'll enjoy myself at Whittler?"

With this she entered into a discussion of the respective merits of the prisons in Stockton, Napa and San Francisco, offering occasional suggestions for the betterment of each of the institutions named.

"That's the toughest girl in San Francisco," commented the Prison Keeper, as he turned the key in the cell door.

PETITIONS FOR DISCHARGE.

A petition from J.R. Sharpstien, asking for the discharge of the boy Louis Hamiltien, that he may be sent to his relations in Wisconsin. Mr. Death said the boy had already been sent Overland a week ago last Wednesday; he therefore moved for his discharge. Adopted. Lizzie Dunn, who was discharged from the County Hospital, was ordered to be sent to the Magdalen Asylum.

This woman, the only daughter of "Grandmother Crudden," was married young and, having been brought up in Albany, New York, in the public schools, she had not much religious feeling, but was generally well read and intelligent. She soon left her husband, fell into the lowest habits of drinking and all kinds of debauchery until she was looked on as a hopeless case, but to the delight of one who knows her, she came of her own accord to spend a few months in the asylum and was joyfully received. Dismissed for misconduct May 27, 1871.

Two Noisy Girls.

Camille Nichols and Annie Eagan were arrested yesterday and charged at the Seventeenth-street Police Station with disturbing a religious meeting. The former was also booked for the Industrial School. Both girls, who are of the chippy class, have served terms in the Magdalen Asylum. Yesterday they went out to the hills back of the asylum to catch site of some of the inmates, all of whom they know. They didn't see any of their friends and began yelling to them. The regular Sunday afternoon services were being held at the time and the girls were taken into custody.

Died July 28, 1863 in the spirit of true repentance. Her infant adopted by ... Los Angeles.

Sent Back to the Asylum.

The wayward Augusta Extrom, aged 16 years, was returned yesterday to the Magdalen Asylum, from which institution she was released two weeks ago on approbation. Benjamin Jones, with whom the girl was living when she was arrested Wednesday night, and several of his friends, made strenuous exertions to have her set at liberty, but Police Judge Joachimsen said that a reformatory was the proper place for her.

Still in the Asylum.

Gussie. Eckstrom, the wayward young girl who was committed to the Magdalen Asylum, did not get away from that institution as reported. Joseph S. McGinn, the son of the deceased undertaker who got out a license to marry the girl on the consent of her mother, will not be able to marry her, the authorities refusing to allow her release.

[Editor's note: Augusta later married George R Grunwald, and died in 1946, at 71. To see a picture of her in later years, check out the gallery on the left.]

Enceinte, brought by her mother. Left with her mother January 21, 1872.

A Wayward Young Girl.

Maggie Edwards, a rather pretty blonde aged about sixteen years, was brought back from San Jose yesterday by Detectives Silvey and Anthony and booked for the Magdalen Asylum. She ran away from her parents' home on Scott street near Geary about three weeks ago and was traced to San Jose, where she was found in a private lodging-house. George Smith, who had Emma Connors arrested on Saturday night on a charge of stealing a diamond ring from him, is said to have taken the girl to San Jose.

A Jewess, married in August but of such dissipated habits that her husband placed her in the Asylum. Removed by her husband Dec. 19, 1868.

The next case called was that of Theresa Ehrhardt, a girl of 16 years, who was charged with being idle and dissolute and of consorting with dissolute characters. Nathaniel Hunter of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children presented to the Court a letter from the mother of the girl, who now lives in San Jose, in which the mother tells of being beaten and bruised all winter long by this girl and finally forced to go to San Jose to another daughter, and states: "I am heartbroken on her account, and I beg of you to put her where she can be controlled. She is my daughter yet."

The Court was nonplused: "If I send her to jail," he said, "I ruin her for life. I think I'll send her to the Magdalen Asylum," which he did.

All six girls testified in court in a case against Mrs. Letitia Gilmour, Matron of the City Prison. Read the testimony and other details in "Tales Told By Wayward Girls."

HAS A RICH FRIEND.

What a Young and Wayward Girl Told a Policeman.

For the second time within a few months Mary Fitzgerald has been forced to occupy the bird cage cell in the City Prison. Mary is wayward and will be consigned to the Magdalen Asylum. Something like three months ago Detective Anthony found the girl in company with a lot of opium fiends and fast women in a resort on Mason street. Her parents, who reside on Filbert street, near Powell, found that they were unable to control Mary, who would remain away from home for days at a time. They finally notified the police, which the result stated. Mary behind the bars made them relent, and Judge Rix allowed her to go on probation. For a time she behaved herself, but it was for a short time only, and a few days ago Officer Anthony was requested to find the girl again.

This he succeeded in doing late Saturday night. The girl was in company with Lillie Cunningham, who is also wanted, but as soon as she saw the officer she broke and ran away, and Anthony had to content himself with capturing the Fitzgerald girl. The latter stated that she was all right and had a rich friend at the Palace Hotel, who would get her out. Who the rich friend is the girt declined to say.

CAUGHT ON THE FLY.

Two Wayward Girls Lead the Police a Lively Chase.

Agnes McCaffery and Nora Fitzgerald, wayward girls of 15 and 16 years, respectively, who have been playing hide and seek with the police during the past two weeks, were captured early yesterday morning in the Fallon House, corner of Mary and Folsom streets.

They ran away together from their home, 1358 Minna street, about a fortnight ago. On Tuesday last their asylum was discovered, but when a policeman accompanied Miss Fitzgerald's sister to the room they occupied, the runaways escaped in scanty attire by way of a second-story window.

Shortly after midnight yesterday morning Sergeant Donovan and a posse of patrolmen descended again on the hiding place of the two incorrigibles. The voices of the girls were heard in the room a moment before, but, when the officers forced the door only their clothes could be found. An hour later Policemen Nolting, Gibbons and Staples made another attempt to catch them. They first sent a citizen to the room to inquire about another woman. When one of the girls opened the door the three policemen dashed into the room.

Three men were stowed away under the bed and in a clothes closet. Nora Fitzgerald was halfway out of the front window and Agnes McCaffery had disappeared. Policeman Gibbons climbed through the window and on a porch outside, on to which she had dropped from the windowsill, he found Miss McCaffery shivering in negligee attire. Both girls were taken into custody and later in the day Judge Mogan committed them to the Magdalen Asylum. One of the three men In the room, who is alleged to have induced the girls to leave their homes, was arrested for vagrancy. He gave the name of John Wilson.

MARY FORTIER MOURNS HER SAD PREDICAMENT.

Rather Unusual Conduct of Her Parents Toward Her Betrayer.

Mary Fortier, a heart-broken child, stands through many hours of the day looking out of the windows of the maternity ward of the City and County Hospital. She almost refuses a word with those about her and is brooding the hours away, overwhelmed by misfortune. On the 22d of May she will be 14 years old, but long before that time she will be a mother.

The case is one of the most pitiful ever reported to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. The child of grief is the daughter of Charles Fortier, a farmer at Norman. She is one of a family of eight, a fairly well-grown, healthy, but plain-looking girl, in ankle-length frocks.

The story of the girl's downfall places the responsibility upon one Joseph Girard, a farm hand employed by her father. He is a French American, has been on the ranch seven years and was considered and treated as one of the family. His victim he has watched grow from a tot of 6 years.

A strange feature in the case and one which may play an important part in the prosecution which will be instituted is that the father and mother, after discovering their daughter's situation, paid Girard his accumulated earnings of seven years and permitted him to remain in his old position in the family.

When the father brought the child to the city to place her in the Magdalen Asylum, Girard drove the wagon that carried them to the depot.

NOTE: Mary and Joseph married in 1897, and their daughter, Celia, was born that year. They had seven more children and lived long lives. Joseph died in 1960 at 88; Mary died in 1968 at 85. They're buried together in Chico Cemetery.

LIZZIE FRANZ, the girl burglar of 1207 1/2 Stevenson street, was committed yesterday by Judge Mogan to the care of the sisters in charge of the Magdalen Asylum. There she will remain in the Institution until she comes of legal age, which gives her four years to work out her reformation.

In addition to the burglary she committed last Thursday in Henry Farley's residence at 1207 1/2 Stevenson street, another robbery was fastened yesterday on wayward Miss Franz. Reading in the newspapers of the girl burglar's arrest, Mrs. J. Hall, who resides at 15 Lapidge street, recollected that Lizzie Franz was seen hanging around her house when it was entered and robbed about four months ago. Mrs. Hail never dreamed of connecting Miss Franz with the robbery at the time it occurred, but the account of the Farley burglary aroused her suspicions, and on Sunday after- noon she acquainted Patrolman T. C. Cainan, who arrested Lizzie Franz, with them.

Cainan taxed Miss Franz yesterday morning with having robbed the Hall residence and the girl readily admitted her guilt. She then went with him to the beck yard of 1907 1/2 Stevenson street, where she dug out of the ground the fragments of a gold watch, the property of Mrs. Hall. In her efforts to destroy the evidence of the Farley burglary last Friday she had also chopped up the gold watch, which was valued at $75. rendering it worthless as a timepiece.

In Judge Mogan's court yesterday the father of Lizzie Franz represented that if she were released he would find her employment with a respectable family in the city. He admitted, however, that his daughter was beyond his control, so the Court refused to entertain his plea in her behalf.

When Judge Mogan asked her why she had robbed the Hall and Farley residences, the fourteen-year-old burglar said: "Because I was drunk each time. Father always keeps wine in our house, and whenever I drank too much of it I felt like going out and stealing something. I just didn't know what I was doing after I drank too much of that wine."

"NOW I HAVE DONE IT."

Alice C. Fuller Throws Herself Into the Bay.

Alice C. Fuller, a rather pretty girl of seventeen summers, was apparently in a very despondent mood when she left her mother's house at 84 1/2 Everett street yesterday afternoon and wandered toward the water front. Arriving at Hathaway's Wharf she threw off her cloak and sprang into the bay.

Several men, who were working on the Mail Dock, ran to her rescue and one threw a rope into the water, but the girl would not seize it or make any attempt to save her- self. Corporal Cockrill secured a boat and with the assistance of two boatmen, soon had the girl out of the water and on the wharf.

The patrol wagon conveyed her to the Receiving Hospital, where she was kindly treated by the matron and placed on a cot in the female ward. In the cloak which Alice left on the wharf the following letter addressed to her mother was found:

Dear Mama—By the time you receive this I hope to have succeeded in doing away with myself, as you told me to do while leaving the house this morning. Everybody seems to tell tales on me and you believe them all in preference to me. I have caused you lots of trouble, mama, but please God I will do so no more. You have told me a dozen times before to do this, and now I have done it. Sincerely hoping we will meet In the next world, I am your only child. —ALICE C. FULLER.

The unhappy maiden ran away from home some time ago with a worthless fellow named Matt Kelly. Both were arrested, and the girl was sent to the Magdalen Asylum, from which institution she was released three months ago. She held her head in her hands and moaned piteously when a CALL reporter stood beside her cot and asked why she had attempted to drown herself.

"I have tried my best to be a good girl," she sobbed, "ever since I was released from the asylum. My mother was tired of me, and kept constantly accusing me of things I was not guilty of. She often told me she wished I was out of the world. She received letters and anonymous notes about me, and I got a number myself. Every time I received one I showed it to her and told her I was innocent of the accusation. She believed everything she heard against my character, and this morning she told me to go away or kill myself. That is why I became so despondent and decided to commit suicide."

The girl further said that she had been working in a millinery-store, and went home promptly every night after work. She said that her mother works in a saloon as a waitress, and is very anxious to be rid of her. Those who heard the girl's story at the hospital promised to try and secure for her a home in some respectable family. 

ALICE GOES HOME.

She Will Again Try to Content Herself With Her Mother.

Alice C. Fuller, the young girl who attempted to end her life on Wednesday by jumping into the bay, is now in a penitent frame of mind. She made her escape from the Receiving Hospital under circumstances detailed in yesterday' issue of the EXAMINER, and was subsequently found in the California House. She then declared that she would not return to her mother, as she feared she would be abused if not sent to the Magdalen Asylum. She said she intended remaining where she was until she found a place to work.

Inquiry at the California house yesterday elicited information that the girl left there in the morning in company with her mother.

After a lengthy discussion she decided to return home and again seek peace and contentment there.

The EXAMINER is in receipt of telegrams from various points in the interior from charitable persons who will give Alice a home if she wants to leave the city and its allurements.

SCAPEGRACE ALICE.

The Fuller Girl Again Figures in Police Circles.

Alice Fuller, the sixteen-year-old girl who attempted suicide six weeks ago by jumping into the bay, was arrested yesterday morning and booked for the Magdalen Asylum. Two young men quarreled over her affections, and entered the fistic arena and had a twenty-round contest to settle the dispute. A few days ago Alice, in company with Eva Troy, attempted to collect money from the Hibernia Bank on her mother's bank book.

An Incorrigible Girl.

Mabel Gaffer, a girl 15 years of age, was sent to the Magdalen Asylum yesterday by Judge Conlan. She is an incorrigible girl and wants to be bad. When her parents died she was adopted by Mrs. M. Montenegro, 309 Fulton street, but for the past six months she has been behaving in a most shocking manner. A few nights ago she cut off her long hair and told Mrs. Montenegro that she intended to sell it so that she and her lover could leave the city. She declined to say who was her young lover. She declared that she wanted to lead a bad life and nothing could stop her. She was taken to Secretary Kane's office by Mrs. Montenegro, and when left alone for a few minutes broke everything she could lay her hands on.
