On July 1, as two li.ue boys were
playing in Washington ldno at Germans

one save the children and the men was
near at the time. For several days pre-

After having driven for some distance
the Oldest one Of the two little ones was
asked TO get out Of The carriage and buy

he most Willingly complied. No sooner
had he disappeared in the store than the
two men lashed the horse and made away
with.tbe little four~year-old, whose name is
Charlie Brewster Boss, and who has new
er since been seen by those who knew
him.
The father, after searching everywhere
in the neighborhood, came to the Police
Office, where, upon his arrival, your cor
respondent learned the rbove. The po-
lice, under the direction Of Captain
Helms, made The most scrutinizing search
everywhere. They continued their op.
erations increasingly day and night, and
were determined to leave no stone un-
turned that would restore the lost one and
puni2h its prosecutors. Ill in vain.
