he wore when first placed in jail.
His clothes were ragged and his
person had the appearance as II
soap and water were the rarest ar
ticles in this world. The usual
question was asked by the court,
and the boy replied that he does
not want to go back to the reform
atory, as he had just come from
there. The boy said that his par
ents reside in Dallas and that at
the age of eight he left them and
went to Houston. He said that he
had a stepfather, who drove him
away from home when he returned
once before. The boy stated that
he learned to read and write in the
reformatOry, although he went to
school in Dallas, and that he was
in "long division" in arithmetic
when he was released from the re-
formatory. Judge Noonan passed
the sentence and told the lad that
he hoped he would be a better boy
when he gets out again.
A motion for a new trial was
overruled and notice of appeal
given in the case of George Robin
son, charged with beating and kick
ing his wife, from the effects of
which she died. Robinson was as
sessed punishment Of thirty
years in the penitentiary, and he
received his sentence without say
ing word.
Albert Baumbach was sentenced
to five years in the penitentiary,
charged with assault to rape Min
ME Smith, little girl about five
years of age. He had nothing to
say of the verdict of the jury and
took the sentence indifferently.
Santiago Cara, charged with
theft Of a horse, was the last GRIM
inal called. He had nothing to say
and was sentenced to five years in
the penitentiary.

LAND FOR WATERSHEDS.

OF City Creek canyon, where a thorough
protection and full development and

possible only by the ownership
Of the entire watershed Of tho canyon
