HIS FATHER WEP I.
A Bad Boy Makes an Old Man Cry
i'm Court.

Frank Schonwald is bad boy, according
TO all accounts, and, though not quite IL, has
disgraced his old fathers gray hairs. He
was found guilty yesterday by Police Judge
Joachimsen of pity larceny, and will be
sentenced to-day. He heard the Judges de-
cision with defiant grin and walked back
to prison with the antics of young hoodlum.
Frank committed offenses some years ago
and went beyond his parents control ALSO
lutely. Then they handed him over to the
police, and he was committed to the Boys
and Girls Aid Society Tor his wrong-dOlng,
with hope that lie could be reformed. But
he only awaited a favorable opportunity.
which came recently. to escape from that
Institution.
No sooner was he again free than he went
back TO his former ways. He became a
wharf-rat and was caught stealing bag OF
beans from a waterfront warehouse. For
this theft he will be punished to-day. The
boys father aud mother were in court yes
terday, but Frank Only Sueered ut then.
When the old man, gray-haired and tot
tering under the weight OF nearly 70 years,
assembled the witness-stand 10 testify regard
ing the incorrigibe youth, he burst into
tears and cried like a child. The Judge as
novel to indignation against the prisoner,
whom he leetured severely but justly.

THE COINAGE COMMITTEE.
The House Committee on Coinage

The House Committee on Coinage
is composed as follows:
Conger, Of Iowa; Wickman, OF Ohio;
Walker, Of Massachusetts,; Carter, of
Montana; Comstock, of Minnesota;
Bartine, of Nevada; Knapp, of New
York; Taylor, Of Illinois; Bland, of
Missouri; Tracy, of New York;
Mutchler, of Pennsylvania; Wilcox, of
Connecticut; Williams, OF Illinois;
and A. Joseph, of New Mexico.
Conger, the Chairman, voted
against free coinage in the Forty
ninth Congress. Wickman, Walker,
Tracy, Knapp, Taylor and Mutchler,
who with the Chairman, constitute q
clear majority, are all radical mono
metalists. Josephs, of New Mexico,
being only a delegate from territory
has no vote. 1t will be seen by this
that nothing favorable 81 the silver
interest can be expected from the
committee to which all measures re-
lating thereto, must be referred.
This condition of things is attribut-
able entirely to the precedence given
to National politics over the silver
question by the people of the silver
producing States and Territories. If
four or five Representatives from the
silver sections had held themselves
aioof from the caucus, they would
have held the balance of power and
been in n position to dictate such
forms iswould have insured the cleo
ton Of silver man for Speaker, and
the consequent appointment Of a
Coinage Committee favorable to that
interest. But politics took precedence
and with clear majority of bi-metal-
lists in the House goldite got into
the Speakers chair, while the silver
interest got into the SOUP Times
Review.
