Two robboriee reported at Police Head
quarters last night turned out upon invesi.
cation to have been committed by party OF
juveniles who have become stage struck. The
chief culprits are Johnny Bolts, an aspiring
actor Of ten summers, and Mabel Drake, who
is his senior by four summers.
=, II was reported that the premises Of MISS
robbed OF $3.50 worth OF female attire, and
the premises OF Ella Davis, OF No. 6l0 Massn-
chusetts avenue, robbed OF $3i.
Detectives Raf and Block were assigned TO
the case, and about IL O'Clock tho boy and
gill were taken into custody. The story
ELECTED from the prisoners and others con.
they were TO commit several robberies to get
funds and supplies to start on a trip to New
York via Baltimore and Philadelphia, where
they were TO mako their debut on the stage.
1t was learned that girl OF 10 years. named
Maggie Shea, was to rob her mother of 800,
but something interviewed to prevent this part
OF the scheme. Johnny Bolts, who resides on

In the Police Court to-day Johnny and Mabel
were arragned on the two charges OF larceny.
Tho boy, who is small for his age. walked up
to the bar with nonchalant air and stood be-
side his female companion smiling, while che
wept bitterly. The evidence against them
was very conclusive, and Miss Withers testl-
fed to losing the clothing, and Detective Block
testified TO recovering some OF tho property at
Mrs. shea's In South Washington, where they
disposed OF II.
The Court sent the boy to the Reform School
and suspended sentence In the case OF the

CHICAGO, July 2s.-The Tribune, discuss
ing recent the Prohibition national convention
says: At all events, Il national Prohibition
ticket will relieve the leaders Of both the Re
publican and Democratic parties from all
temptation or pressure to enter into ex-
plantations or complications on the prohi-
bition question. Whenever and whar-
ever an effort shall I've made to commit one
of the Old parties to prohibition the reply
should be: THE Prohibitionists have a
national party and a presidential ticket OF
their own, and every man who regards that
issue paramount to all other human con
Germs OF question which divide the Repuhli
cans and Democrats should vote for Mr., st
John" There is now no longer any excust
for identifying any other party with politica
prohibition.
