THE BELLS ARE TRAMps.
So Says Agent Preston of the Organ
 ized Charities Association.

ized Charities Association
 The Bell family which was found on Howard avenue Saturday evening by Patrolman Doran, was not, it seems, in such straitened circumstances as 1t was at first thought Agent Preston of the Organized Charities association put both the man and the woman through rigid inquisition yesterday morning when he arrived at the Or ange street home, where the Bells were housed Saturday night, all day Sunday and the night following. MT. Preston's investigation resulted in the mans producing $3, as well as to dis close the very remarkable story that the youngest child was born Tn Fitch burg, Mass, and in Norwich Conn. The child was at once two and three years old, according to whichever story was accepted. Bell told one and the woman not only failed to corroborate it but told an entirely different one, The grand total of all the tales told by this nomadic couple, MT. Preston says, points strongly to their being tramps. Their home, if they may properly be said to have one, is in East Newark, N. J. As far as Agent Preston has | been able to ascertain, they have been tramping through New England For the last three years. They have been heard of in Fitchburg, Lawrence, Hol- | yoke Mass. New London, Middletown and Leete's Island Conn. MT.
