Each of the defendants was sentenced
to the penitentiary for a term Of FIVE
years
The cases Of Flynn and Lewis, who
burglarized Milus Henry's store at

dawned upon them that the shortes
way out of their trouble was to with.
draw their plea Of not guilty and en-
tered plea of guilty. Judge RuckeI
fixed s. a. Minnis' punishment al
three years in the penitentiary, but in
the case against G. w. Minnis nOM
pr0segui was entered by order of Pros.
ecuting Attorney James A. Collet, fol
the reason that the defendant was Tn.
der I8 years of age and could not be
sent to the peniteniiary, and as he had
been in Jail for two months, Mr.. Collet
would not insist upon his further pun
i5hment.
Flynn. Lewis, Lee, Bartel and S. A.
Mcnnis were taken to the penitentiary
last Monday night by Jos. F. Hans
man and Pat Stanton.

Anemoted Suicide OF a School Boy.

Fritz Kuhn, r3-year-old hoy living
ut Brunswick, and son Of Chris
Kuhn, Louis Kinkhorst's baker at that
place. attempted to commit suicide by
the carbolic acid route in Principal
Buckmaster's room OF Brunswick's Vii
lage school building last Thursday al
ternoon.
Young Kuhn was a pupa in Miss
Olga Kuechler's room, but was sent to
Principal BuckmAs,eIs apartment for
punishment. for having, it is said, at
tempted to pass IN obsence note to
one OF his boy schoolmates, but which
was grabbed by one of the girl pupils
and handed to Miss Keuchler.
The fact Of his beng sent to Prof.
Bucknastcr seemed to M the boy with
terror, and when the professor started
to approach hun, the teuorized lad
drew from his pocket bottle OF car
bolic acid and swallowed portion Of
the deadly drug. and then said to Prof.
Buckmaster: Don't whip me; I've
got poison in me-"
Kuhn was hurriedly conveyed to
DIR. +. F. Martins Office by two other
boys At the request of Prof Bucknas-
ter. DIR. Martin administered an
tidotes and worked faithfully ID ex-
tract TIE poison from the boys stomach,
and in about an hour he was able TO
be taken home, where his recovery
was soon assured.
The possession OF the bottle Of car
boiic acid by the youthful attempter at
suicide is accounted for on the grounds
that bis father had been using the drug
in n diluted form to wash his horses
sore eg. and the boy took it to school
Tor the avowed purpose, he says, o
swalls owing its contents in case Prof.
Buckinas,er attempted 70 punish him.
