A MESSAGE BY TELEPHONE
I h;;d hail ii hard iluy with nu obsti
. 111: to case of a patient whom I bud
pulled tlit ' >u^rti with tuueh illtlleulty
ami was preparing for bod. hoping that
! would be allowed ! ? sleep till morn
ing. wheu there was a ring at my tele
plune.
"Are ynu I>f .MuiuockV' came a
cliiid's volctf.
"Yes."
?Tin"? I couldn't make out the
naiuc.
"Who?"
Ag;:In I'.'.e mine was a jumble.
"Speak loti.'er." I said
"I dmi'l diue They'll hear me."
"Well, what Is It? Why do you tele
plioue uie?"
? Voii're our family doctor. I've called
you up for mother ofteu. This after
noon I u.i- pns.Ni.iK a carriage stand
ing by the sidewalk. Two men pushed
ine l:i II ai: ! carried me off. Come here
ami got li.e nut."
"Where":"
"I don't know."
"Can't you tell me something about
It?"
"I saw Wit -hli.fjtou street on a lamp
post. The next street slj'n 1 saw was
Unmet"?
"Hepeat that."
"Burnet."
"All right. Co oa."
"We didn't tun nut of P.urnet. 1
kept looking at the stieet names, and
after we c;os od c!n slnut"?
That was the la:*t word I got. I
called n gal n nnd again without any
reply, only the huM&iug coiumon in tele
phones. It occurred to me at once that
a child? I couldn't tell from the voice
whether it was a boy or girl? had lieen
kidnaped and had got hold of a tele
phone only to lie stopped In time to
prevent my getting definite Informa
tion. 1 called up police headquarters
anil told my story, and after a few min
utes' consultation nniong them they
requested me to g;> with lltom for a
fearch. A carriage containing three
men in plain clothes soon drove up to
the house, nnd we started for Wash
ington street, turning thence Into I!ur
net and, crossing Chestnut, stopped to
survey the locality.
Meanwhile we had come to the con
clusion that the kidnapers must have
taken the child to a house of good
class since It contained n telephone.
The houses near where we stopped
were Due resiliences. It was the month
of August, and, while there were
lights in most of them, one had evi
dently been closed. A policeman
walked around It aa-1 reported that a
ray of light came through a crack In
an upper story. I was requested to
ring t lie bell aud ask if a doctor had
been called for. 1 r;i:'g but received
no reply. Again and again I pushed
the button, and at last the door was
opened, and a woiuau stood lu the
opening. I asked her If a doctor hail
lieen called for. nnd she said no.
The policeman In charge of the squad
was with me, carrying my bag of
medicines. He pushed Into the vesti
bule.
"Shall I strike a light, doctor?" he
asked. Aud without waiting for a
replyjie lit the hall gas Jet. We saw
' that the woman was old nml of forbld
dlug uppearuucc.
"Say," said the policeman, "we've
been telephoned that there's a child
sick In this house, and the doctor
must see him."
At the mention of the child and the
telephone the woman drew a long
breath. This was enough for the po
liceman. Ho ordered the house sur
rounded aud. directing the woman to
follow, went upstairs to a bedroom,
where he found a telephone. 1 went
with them.
"I thought bo," he said at seeing the
phone.
Taking up the receiver, he called up
the nearest pollcc station and In a
few minutes a couple more men re
ported. Then commenced a searching
of the premises. We soon came upon
a man In bed, who was routed out, and
both he and the woman were taken
along with us. We went from garret
to cellar without tlndlng anything.
We were looking about In the laundry
when It occurred to one of the men to
raise the lid of a stationary wash
tub. It was fastened. The man called
upon the old woman for something to
pry It open with. She turned pale.
Two men grasped the cover nml lift
ed It.
There, lying In the tub, was a boy
about six years old. He was Insensi
ble, having been given an annestlietlc
to prevent his crying out. I recognized
IMdle Thornton, the child of one of
my clients.
1 took measures to revive the boy,
and he soon came to li/s senses. The
man nml woman, 0:1 being questioned,
said they had never suspected that a
boy of si* would know how to use a
telephone, though they had forgotten
the phone when they put him where
It wn . The woman beard hlui. as she
supposed, talking to himself, but soon,
s.ispectlng that he might lie up to
some mlsch'ef. rushed Into the room
?i:id took nwny the receiver.
I vent upstairs, telephoned the boy's
parents. wi: > were h a frightful condl
tii !i itf i.il 'd. and told thein the news
Then I drove IMdle home.
