Extensive Power of Trial Justice

ItsSentences. Reprieves and Pardons Two
Cnlprits, All in One Day-Two Boy
Burglars and Their fearful Parents.
There was much excitement in Knight
vile Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week, and the event made anything but
happy New Year to the boys and their
parents involved. Mr.. o. G. Evans of
Knightville, who is supervisor of schools
in Belfast, came home with his family
few days ago to spend the holiday va
cation, only to find that his premises had
been broken into and miscellaneous
property to the amount of S25 or $50
stolen therefrom. The case was put into
the hands of Constable Joseph Craig,
who in short time connected four of
the village boys with the crime, ana
they were taken into custody at the
instance of Justice McManus, before
whom they had trial Wednesday fore
noon. Two of the youngsters, Beeman
and Ward, were exonerated from blame,
and set at liberty, but the other two,
I'll. G. Woodslde and Chase Goodwin.
were proved guilty and sentenced to the
Reform School during minority. The
Goodwin boy took his medicine with
bravado auguring i'll for his future, but
the Woodside lad cried like baby. Con-
stable Craig took the two tulprits in
team and started for the reformatory.
Meantime the boys relatives and other
sympathetic citizens, assailed Justice
McManus with fearful prayers and
pleadings which SO far softened the court
that it rescinded it's action and de-
spatched another team TO the Reform
School with reprieve, it arriving at
the door Of the instltu tion just in time
to save commitment. Both OF these
boys have always had the benefit of
rigid pious training. They belong to
the Sunday school, and are members of
formed here. On arrival home they
were hilarious over their fine sleigh
ride at government expense. Another
apparent crime was developed at the
hearing. The Goodwin boy testified that
he raised money to spend by selling
station nv belonging TO his father. Mr..
Lighthody, the druggist, had bought
some Of this, but declined to purchase
until the boy produced the fathers con-
sent. 1t seems that he persuaded Young
man named Shaw to sign his fathers
name to such permit, and Shaw was at
once arrested charged with forgery He
gave bonds for his appearance for trial
tomorrow.
