street and James Kirk, whose home is In
the rear OF p Chaffee street. were arrest
ed on warrants charging them with being
truants this morning. Theer appears to
be something peculiar In the Kirk boys
case and the police intimate that the
boys stepfather is the one that asked 10
have the boy arrested. The boy Is afflicted
with a large scrofula sore on the side OF
his neck, and Is not allowed TO attend
school, and has a card for outdoor treat
ment at st. Josephs hospital, and IT is in
tlmated that the poor little fellow Is the
subject of spite instead OF good.
The boy when taken from home was
barefooted but Lieutenant Tyler sent the
boy back home again with orders TO MS
parents 10. dress his feet and dress him
as he should be.
The police did not care TO take the lit
tie fellow, but as the warrant was placed
in their hands for service they could not
refuse 10 obey the mandates Of the court.
Mrs. Kirk had two children when she be-
came Mrs Kirk and Mr.. Kirk had two
