Katherine Keenan, the “littlemother,” who has been missing from her home, No, 490 West Seventeenth street, since Saturday last, stood under the elevated station at One Hundred and Twenty- ninth street and ‘Third avenue at dawn to-day, shivering in the chill morning air and so weak from hunger that her legs could hardly support her body. Gug M. Wilkins, who lives in the neighborhood, saw the weeping child, and he remembered how Katherine Keenan had disappeared from her home. He bad read a desoription of her in The Evening World and was interested in the child of eleven who had taken her mother’s place when the latter dled elght months ago. Since then Katherine had been mother to her younger brothers and_ sisters. She had kept house for her father and had been devoted in her attentions to him until Saturday, when she disobeyed his orders without meaning to, ‘What is your name, Ittle girl?” asked Wilkins. kindly, “I am afraid to tell you," replied the sobbing child, “I have disobeyed my father and 1 am wshamed to face him,” Only Runa Since Sunday. Little by little Wilkins drew the girl's story from her. She confessed that she was the ‘Little Mother," and then told how she had run away from home on Saturday because she had falled to clean the house, as her father had commanded her. “I went to St. Vincent's Hospital with Nellle Canty, who lives In our house, * she said, “Her brother is sick there, and we wanted to see him. When I got home Jt was too late to clean the house, I knew he would be angry with me and I was afraid to go home. I ran away and walked ever so far.” The child wag reluctant about telling where she had been since leaving home. “I was with a Mrs, Fitzgerald Satur- day night,” she explained. ‘I don't know where she lives, But I didn't like Mrs. Fitzgeras, and on Sunddy I ran away from her. Since then I have had nothing to eat except 2 cents’ worth of puns which 1 bought. I have walked the streets and tried to for- wet that/I was hungry and sleepy.

J. Nilon, of the Bast One Hundred’ and Twenty-sixth street station-house, and the two took Katherine before the sergeant. As the child stood at the desk she was overcome by weakness and sank unconscious to the floor. A physician in the station-house attend- ‘ing to’ another patient hurried to the child and revived her.

Counctlman Michael Hangley, of West New York, who has been sick several weeks, fell over the Palisades above Weehawken to-day and sustained in- juries from which he may dle. Because of the pecullar place tn which he fell it was two hours before he could be reached and attended, and for that reason it is believed his injuries were made worse, Convalescing from his sickness, the Councilman was atill very weak, and when he went walking to-day he was accompanted by his friend, Frank Curry. They were walking slowly along the edge of the Palisades, when Hangley's foot tripped on a ledge, and before Curry could stop him he had plung headlong down the perpendicular cliff of rugged rocks, Fall Deflected by Tree. His body first struck the mb of a pine tree growing out from a crevice, nd this saved him from going down tho whole distance of 200 feet to the base of the rocks, The limb turned the body and cast it ona ‘row ledge of rock which forms a shelf thirty feet below the summit of the Palisades, There was no way in which Curry could reach the body alone. The only approach to this narrow shelf was from below, and then it would require a clift- climber of considerable ability to hang on the crags as he mounted the bold face of the Palisades, Hangley had been made unconscious Plame aaa by the fall, and there was a fear that in his reviving moments ho might turn and roll from the shelf down to certain and instant death among the rocks. After procuring assistance Curry sta- tioned two men with ropes at the tap of the cliff directly above the shelf, and he and several others started off for the base of the Palisades, This re- quired the traversing of a circuitous route of more than a mile.
