sent ' here to locate the bodies of the

the bodies were discovered, for the
simple reason' that the only charge
that could have been placed' against

OLD GIRLS ii!
BOWERY FLOPS
By Wettbreok Pegler - ".
(United News Staff Correspondent)
New , Tork, Dec 25. This was the
merriest possible Christmas wider, the
circumstances for the game old girls
In the old ladies flops on the Bowery,
but that. Isn't saying much. "1
Christmas means day off, maybe
a day of blessing -to a creaky old
woman, of rising CO years, who spends
her nights on her marrows swabbing
the cold, stone floors of tall office
buildings with only an old watchman
to pass the time of night to. It inter
rupts her routine, and puts her to
thinking thoughts, especially at Christ
mas, time. I

when you've got 100 of them all cranky

HOT THE 3LEBBIEST.
So this won't be what you'd can a
regular merry Christmas to th old
ladies' flop,' at either flop, for there
are two on th lower east eld. Just
the merriest possible under the circum
stances. New Tork hardly knows these places
exist. But where you have down and
out old men you must also hav down
and out old women. One Of them, th
one on th Bowery, Is run by th Sal
vation Army ; the other one, on Riv
ington street, has been supported for
the last 33 years by a mysterious "Misa
White."
Th old matron won't tell you any
thing about this "Miss White," but
Wallace Winchell, a brigadier of the
Salvation Army, says she la a sister
of Stanford White, who wa killed by
Harry Thaw over at the Garden.
They used to serve a big dinner .at
"Miss White's" place on Thanksgiving
and Christmas, but they Nsut it oat a
few years ago. Th old women- Were
all 'Star boarders. Some wanted . all
white meat, soma all dark, and tur
keys would have to be centlpedal to
supply their demands for drumsticks.
So now they get eo cents each with
the best regards of their unseen sister-under-the-skin
and rustle their own
dinners at Beefsteak John's, the .Or
iginal John's, or the Mills hotel, up
the block. - ; '
STRAW OB WOMAX IS KI3TD
For th last few year a Jersey
woman, who doesn't let her nam be
known, has been motoring down to
Rivington street on Christmas morn
ing with a package of new dollar bills
and a lot of candy And oranges. As
the old- women come down the stairs
past the office to get their 60 cents,
she hands, each one an extra dollar,
small box of candy and an orange.
They don't know yet whether she will
be down this .year.
The ' World treats the old women
