The police court comes in for it's share
of the business this week, as we'll as
other institutions. Over seventy cases
we're disposed of Thursday, forty of them
being petty thieves and crooks. The
majority of the latter we're discharged
under suspended sentence and admon-
ished to leave the city within thirty min
utes. Among the thieves we're five dimin-
utive smooth faced newsboys from Des
Moines, who were arrested for picking
pockets and pilfering street stalls.
A number of little boys we're playing
on the bank of the river, on the East
side flats Thursday night, among them a
four-year-old boy named Gerhard Holt.
The little fellow became too venturesome
and in leaning over the embankment
lost his balance, falling headlong into
the river. The current is very strong
near the flats, and when his companions
realized what had occurred, Gerhard's
body could be seen floating rapidly down
stream. Then 1t sank, and up to a late
hour, all efforts to recover it had proved
futile. The little fellows parents live
on the fats.
