| There were sixteen boys, ranging in age
| from to Is years, before the Police Court

arrested by officers Kent and Rider for
| being portion of the crowd that stoned
Chinese houses in the neighborhood of
Fifth and | streets on Sunday, while the
other three had been taken into custody
| by officer Frazee for assaulting a China
man on street, between Thirteenth and
| Fourteenth, on Monday Some of them
| have been reported to the police heretofore
as being bad boys, while Others were
! doubtless merely guilty of being in bad

until Saturday, and they were allowed to
| go without bail on their sOlemnly promis
ing to behave themselves 1t is scarcely
! probable, owing to the youth of the offend
ers, that they will suffer more than a
severe reprimand in Court; but there GER
taInly seems 70 be a duty in the premises
due from the parents of the boys to them
selves, TO the boys aud to society.
