STORY.
It was OF the twenty-fourth of
December. Little Willie Jones was
walking up and down the streets of
New Yor2:. try ng to sell his papers,
so he could buy some Christmas
things for his mother. His father was
dead, and his mother was sick, so
it was up to him to make living for
his mother and himself. The doctor
had told Willie that his mother would
have to h;,v,. n operation and that it
would cost two hundred dollars. Will
lie had already saved up about fifty
dollars and lie was trying to sell more
papers to make more money.
AS he was walking around in a
cafe in the underworld, he overheard
a conversation between some men at
table, and Hairlip Triggers was one
of them, a notorious crook of the un-
derworld, wanted by the police, for
murder, stealing and many other
things. Willie recognized him at once,
for he had seen his picture on pos
ters, and read that there was five
hundred dollars reward for his ar
rest, or any information of his where
abouts. which would lead to his ar
rest. Willie listened to them plot with
a keen car, and he overheard their
entire conversation. They were plot
ting to rob the Third National Bank
at twelve o'clock that night. After
they finished talking, Willie slipped
out of the side door of the cafe and
beat it for police headquarters. Willie
told the chief, all the plans of the
crooks, and also told him that Hair
lin Tr:"~rr. was one of them. The
chief told him that he was a smart
oy, and for him to come back around
to hcaIrunrtnrs the next morning.
and get ,hc reward if they caught
the crooks. Willie said that he would,
and started for home. AS he was
walking down the street he saw lit
y about four years old, run out
in the middle cf the road, and stop
ped on the street car track. Not far
