STORY OF SOME BAD BOYS.
Mother of One of Them ConfrOnts Her
Son at the Police Station.

Two youthful offenders were arrested yes
terday afternoon on the charge OF petit
larceny. They are Carl King, aged nine,
and Warren Bowman, eleven years old.
Carl lives with his mother at 20 North
West street, while Warren lives round the
corner at 2f1 West Washington street. The
boys are members Of a gang that loafs
around the Park Theater corner and causes
the officers much annoyance by petty mis-
deeds. After the two lads were turned into
hardened criminals, three OF their compan-
ions called and asked turnkey John Long
for permission to converse with them. The
request was granted, and the boys were
called to the wicket and held a whispered
conversation. Carl King was overheard to
utter the word mother" The patrolmen
were coming in to roll call and the three
boys fingered around long enough to re-
ceiye a good lecture from one of the of
ticers. They were entirely unabashed and
After they left, the officer said the three
boys were among the worst in town; one of
them had already served a term in the Re-
form School at Painfield and another was
out of the workhOuse on suspended sem
tence.
About an hour later Mrs. King entered
the station house. She was crying and
asked to be directed to the proper officer for
information as 10 whether her boy was one
of those arrested. Mrs. King, is a poor
woman. She had no umbrella and had
walked all the way from West street IN
the driving rain. Her garments were water
soaked and she was foot-sore and weary.
In broken accents she made known the OBJ
ject Of her quest and asked If her boy had
been arrested. When informed he was in
the cell room she asked to see him. Turn
key Long opened the cell room door and
called the boy to come and see his mother.
The mother peered at him through the
iron wicket and said: 20 Carl, why didn't
you come back and go to Sunday-school in
stead of running away with those bad
boys? l told you you would get in trouble
If you kept running with them. What did
they arrest you for? What did you dor
Nothing the boy replied. sullenly. 1t
seems she had left the boy at homo in
the afternoon and returned to find him
gone and the door locked. She asked him
for the key. He said the policeman took
it. The boy was behind the bars and Moth
ing more was to be done. She said again:
20 Carl. why didn't you come home and
go to Sunday-school? They will send you
to Plainfield for this She turned away
from him and buried her face.in her hands.
The iron door was closed and the two We're
separated again. Turnkey Long looked for
the KEY. but found il had not been taken
from the boy when he was searched. and
told her the patrolman who made the ar
| rest probably had it. What am | to do?"
she said; II can't get in the house AFTER
inquirlng if the case would come up in the
Police Court this morning. she turned about
and went out in the rain again.

LOCAL SALVATION ARMY CORPS.
Brigadier Fielding Presents the Flags
The New Soldiers.

Brigadier Fielding last night organized
the Salvation Army Of this city into the
Indianapolis corps of the army, with a
membership of fifteen for the beginning.
Eleven men and boys stood up and took
the vows necessary TO become members of
the army, which, with the four women
who nave been carrying on the work,
makes the total fifteen. Under the rules
of the army q corps cannot be organized
until there is a certain number of appli-
cants for membership. Then the corps is
formally organized and the flag of the
it Is situated is presented, which, together,
form the colors of the corps. The Salvation
Army flag is made of a small flag of the
occupied by the stars in the American
flag. OF the remainder of the flag the
center is red, representing the blood of
Christ. with a blue border, typifying purity.
In the center is a yellow star. In pre-
senting the flags TO Captains Connor and
Carlson, Brigadier Fielding made a lengthy
address, exhorting them to see that the
flag of the army was taken into all parts
of the city where the arm of the church
does not reach and also that they. see TO
as members of the army were persons
whose everyday life marked them as
Christian workers.
The eleven men and boys who subscribed
TO the pledge of the army were all jealous
in their efforts to show hat they had
turned their backs on their former lives

themselves. Besides these there were a
number of other converts who are now
awaiting the required time Of probation
before being taken in as soldiers of the
army.
In a little hall on the second floor at
33is South Illinois street is where the meet
ings OF the Salvation Army are he'd. When
the army made it's START here almost a
year ago it was jeered and looked upon
as a thing that merited only the ~slurring
remarks Of those who passed by its hall
Since that time there has been a changc.
Then the attendance was quite small and
was composed mostly of people who stopped
for a few minutes out OF mere curiosity
Now, however. the attendance is made up
mostly of people who are attracted from
motives far different. but still many
curiosity seekers may be seen. 1t was
noticed last night that most OF the people
are of that class OF we'll meaning people
who have no church connection and prob
ably never would have simply because they
are located in blocks down town and arc
practically isolated from church-goiug peo-
pie. They have found the meeting OF the
Salvation Army a pleasant place TO spend
an hour on sunday evening and from that
nave gradually become interested in the
work that Is being done. The very earnest
ness Of the workers IL sufhcient to impress
