Charles V. Johnson and his bro
ther Willard, aged II and I9 years,
respectively, are s95 poorer today
than they were last night. The two
boys, who have been working in the
woods few miles from Tacoma, ar
rived in the city yesterday afternoon
and began at once to search for
work. During the early part of the
evening they visited the employment
agencies on Pacific avenue, but were
unable to find the kind of work they
desired.
While standing in front of one of
the agencies, q neatly dressed man,
about 40 years of age, came up to
them, and representing himself as
the timekeeper for large lumber
company, engaged the boys to work
for him.
The arrangements to catch the
morning train for the camp were
completed and everything was ar
ranged for good long Job. The
boys were greatly pleased and show
cd their feelings to marked de-
gree.
incidentally, before bidding the
two lads good night, the man made
known that he had 10 buy a small
stock Of goods before going to his
room for the night. Upon feeling in
