To-day an agent of the Children's Soclety discovered that from the first week in October up to Nov. 14 he had been regularly employed by Dob- blestine & Co., house painters, at No. 166 Went Ninety-ninth Street. Haet- ner quit hin job voluntarily on Nov. 14 and took his two babies out into the rain the following night. Jeanette Haeffner, she of the baby doll bang and the cheap jewelry, mother of Richard and Jimmy, who were abandoned in front of Gimbel's store last Saturday, and of the two younger children left In vestibules on the night of the storm, gave her views on @ mother’s responsibilities to-day in the rooms of the Children's Society. She said: “I do not want those two youngest children. They wore me to a shadow and I do not care to give up my life for four children. Other people who are as poor as we are may do it, but that is not the kind of a life for me. “Of course,I love the youngest as) well as the oldest two, but the two) babies will never remember that they | were abandoned, as Richard and) Jamie may, and can never accuse me of being heartless, They are all boys, anyway; they can shift for them- welves.” “If your husband gets a new start in life and can provide a home will you take care of all four children?” she was asked. Her answer was short: “No. Four children are too many for any woman to take care of,” Mrs. Haeffner, a woman of twenty- six years, whose short, sandy colored hair Is trimmed “Dutch style” over her forehead, and who wears large, gold-plated earrings and other bau- bles which are in strange contrast to her story of poverty, is being held by the society pending an in- vestigation. Just before an Evening World re- porter learned yesterday that she had four children inatead of two, and urged her to tell the whole truth about her family, she exclaimed: “I just won't stand for these ques- tions, that’s all. It's disgusting. Rather than have myself dragged down in the mire I'd rather give up the two children now being held by the society.” Haeffner, a good-lovking man of thirty-three, who apparently wor- abips the ground upon which bis fair- haired young wife walks, wagged his head as ebe sald this, and remarked: “Oh, I tell you, Jeanette’s a gre t irl, She's game, she is. You see, she'd rather give up the kids than have ‘em to question her. She's got proud blood in her, I tell you.” No Recoré of Marriage at AVinntic Clty, (Special to The Krening World.)
