A SAD CASE.
Two Little Boys Deserted by thoir
Paronte.
One of tho saddest cases that has
como to tho knowledge of The News
icporterfora long time was learned
this morning.
Mr. Lon Humphreys came aoross a
littlo boy on tho streots of East Waco
crying. Ho asken him what was the
matter and tho boy told him that his
mother nad gono off and left him and
his littlo brother with a negro woman
on South Ninth street and that his
mother was a white woman and he
wouldn't livd with negroes. lie was
turned over to officer John Hard wick
who bought him some clothing and a
square meal. Mr. Hardwick still has
tho littlo fellow in chargo and is dilli-
gently hunting for his mother. Ho
says if he can find her and got her
consent he has soourud a good homo
for tho boy.
The little boys arc aged respective-
ly about six and four years the youDg-
er of which is still in charge of the
negro woman. Mr. and Mrs. James
Archibald are the father and mother
of these innocent little waifs who are
today charges upon the cold charities
of the world and while they will find
oomfoitable homes and receive every
attontion that could be given them by
their own parents they are yet worse
than orphans. James Archibald is a
Scotchman who has resided in Waco
several years and a stone cutter by
trade. He is addicted to tho exces-
sive use of intoxicating drink and
when under the influence of liquor
becomes very violent. This is the
same man who was arrested some
months ago and fined 25 in tho po-
lice court for aggravated assault and
battery upon his wifo an account of
which was published in The News at
the time
