FUNkHOUSER AID BEATEN
1t never rains but it pours, runs the
old proverb. And it seems to hold
good in the case of Major Funkhous-
er and his aids.
With lightning rapidity the major
has been struck several times in the
last two weeks. First Chief Gleason
took the policewomen from under
Funkhouser's control; then the NOR
ais squad was declared unauthorized
to make arrests; yesterday Damien
berg, inspector of morals, lost his

once there was dark and lonesome
alley in which lived n little crippled
boy, named Tommy. When he was
about a year old his mother got drunk,
and she let her baby fail from her
arms, and he was crippled He had
been sickly ever since she dropped
him. His mother put him away in
this old alley, for you STE she was
a cruel woman and cared little for
her baby. Tommy was only six now,
and had never known Or heard of
Jesus. You see he had ne one to love.
He was often lonely.
One sweet summer afternoon little
Tommy felt so lonely ana still he felt
that he was sinking, when he thought
he heard somebody singing. Now, lit
tie Tommy had never heard anyone
sing and how eagerly aid he listen I'M
til the singing came nearer and near
.er Tommy began to call and to
shout until the singer heard the sound.
But, oh, how she did surprise him
when she came in. She was ragged
and her feet were bare. Tommy asked
her her name. and he Was told that
she was singing Jessie. She asked
Tommy his name and what he want
ed with her. MY name Is Tommy

Tommy lay there IN the alley which

the angels came and carried him TO
