KIDS AND KIDS.
Slight Mistake Which Stirred Up New
York Police Officials.

New York World
An air Of deepest mystery pervaded
police headquarters Saturday morning.
From Staten Island had come this
strange message:
Have six buttin' kids. What shall we
do with emf DO you want 'em?"
The puzzled Mulberry Street sleuths
studied the dispatch and tried 10 read
between its lines 10 solve il.
"SiX-button kids" they reasoned. THE
gloves OF some rich society woman
''rirh society woman" Is a favorite ex-
precision az headquarters The gloves
are probably. the clue TO crime The
woman has been murdered. or, mayhap.
she sought the wilds Of staten Island TO
take her life"
Back from headquarters flashed the
questions:
Where did you find the kids? What
color are they is there anything in
them that points to their owner 20
From staten Island came this illumi-
mating reply
The six owners are In the station
house Offering bonds for the kids good
beha iOr Tor a year. Two OF 'em are
black. two white and two black and
whitehall Is the kids. We run fem In
for eating golf balls, rubber plants. and

ply from headquarters burned it up.
