arrangement as to price and pay

TWO RUNAWAY BOYS CAUGHT
Both Arc from Brooklyn and wer
Found on the BOwery.

Agent King. of the Gerry Society.
captured two runaway boys from Brook
Ign on the Bowery last night, and ar
raigned them in the Tombs Police Court
this morning.
They were Frederick Morquardt,
twelve years old. of CSC Flushing avenue.
and Albert Hagedorn, thirteen years
old. of $50 President street, Brooklyn.
They left home some time ago, and the
Brooklyn police sent out a general
alarm for them on Monday.
Young Morguardt is n bad boy. One
year ago to-day he was arraigned be-
fore Judge MARITIME in the Court of
General Sessions, for being with three
other boys who stole a horse and wa
gon in Williamsburg. and were caught
coming to this city at the Roosevelt
street ferry.
He pleaded guilty and sentence
was suspended. For a long time he was
a good boy, but his last exploit was an
urwisc one.
The Hagcdorn boy left home about n
month ago, and says he has been living
at Kirby'sl lodging-house, I'll Poplar
street, Brooklyn.
At the request of Agent King, the
two boys were remanded to give the
Gerry Society a chance to secure some
new facts.
