This Is tho second chapter OF the instructive
tale OF Bad Tom Dunn, the Sclf.Made Man, and
the Good Boys OF Twenty.third Street. Tho
first chapter. published in yesterdays sun,
told how tho Good Boys found a blank wall in
Forty.second street, opposite the Hotel Metro
pole. which is the castle Of Tom Dunn, though
the Cts didn't know II. They are too truly
good to know anything about such a naughty
boy os Tom Dunn. Why. goodness, he Is tho
Tammany nominee for Sheriff; ANYTHING
pertaining to Tammany is essentially horrid
and to DO avoided. So tho Good Boys
hired II room in tho MCtropolc, opposite
tho blank wall, on Tuesday, got q nice
little steroopticon and set 1t in tho window 10
throw pictures on tho blank wall after Forty
second street was dark. Then they all went
home and took afternoon maps. SO As to be pre-
pared TO stay up until after 3 o'clock, II 1t
should become necessary.
Meanwhile the naughty Tammany boys who
swarm about the Mctropole plotted together,
and when night came the happy little Cts and
the friends they had invited found their blank
wall filed with Tammany opinions Of Mr.. Low
and his party cast by Tom Dunn's LAM
torn. These opinions were of a sort
that made tho Good Boys weep. While they
were still wondering what to do, the proprietor
Of tho Metropole ordered them out Of the house.
They can't even now understand that, for they
say they weren't making half as much noise as
the Tammanv men down In the bar room.
The Good Boys departed and went to bed.
and yesterday morning, while they were wait
ing to be dressed and have their hair
brushed, they thought and thought and gave
themselves headaches. turning over schemes in
their little heads to get even with that mean
Dunn man.
They met at the Twenty!third street kinder.

these good women suggested that they hire a

also advised them TO see a policeman before
