Youthful Offenders.

Joseph Strobinger and James Bar
rett were playing marbles in IA box
car one day recently, and discovering
there among other things q pail of
tobacco, they helped themselves to a
small pc. tion of its contents. AS a
consequence, upon complaint of a
railroad employe, they were arrested
upon charge of petit lArceny,an had
Il hearing before Justice Huthcins.
They were convicted and sentenced
to the reform school, subject to the
order Of the district judge. The
judge is absent at present and the
boys now anguish in the county Jail
awaiting his return and final dspo-
sition of; their case. Owing to their
youth and other extenuating circum-
stances it is thought that the judg.
mentof the justice will not be ell
forced.
