BONESETTER. KANSAS CITY
POLICE DOG, SAVES LIFE
OF CITY PATROLMEN

Kansas City, No, April 7.-Boneset-
ter has won many laurels and is high
in the estimation of the Kansas City
police department Although his name
might indicate that he is an orthopedic
specialist. Bonesetter is a large black
dog of the airdale variety But he
wears bright police star on his col.
lar and has assisted in the capture OF
many criminals.
The animal has been attached 20
police headquarters for several years.
No one seems to remember how he OBJ
tanned his unusual name. He works q
north.end beat and accompanies any Of
ficer who happens TO be patrolling the
district. A club raped on the pave
ment is sufficient to call the dog.
Bonesetters latest feat was the cap
ture of an alleged drug addict who ran
when an officer attempted to arrest
him. The police dog downed him with
flying tackle.
Several months ago Bonesetter saved
the life Of Police Sergeant j. p. Har-
rington when a gunman attempted to
shoot him. The man had been cor
nered by the OFFICER ana had drawn
gun but Bonesetter was on the job
He leaped upon the man, fastened his
teeth in the bandits wrist and bowled
him over. Sergeant Harrington com
plcted the arrest.
Recently the dog found the body Of
a man who had been stabbed TO death
in an alley and led patrolemen to the
scene.
Like all other geniuses, Bonesetter
has much temperament and hobby
The hobby is the police uniform. He
is friend OF all who wear the uni
form but has little regard for those
not so attired When policeman
changes TO civilian clothes, friendship
so far as Bonesetter is concerned
temporarily ceases.
