faeft of leaving home and staying away
over night, or until they get good and
ready to come back. On Wednesday
morning they left their fathers house
ana did not go back until yesterday
morning, when they cane home to get
something 10 eat. When asked where
they had slept they said on the benches
in the Salvation Army tent on North
Main street.
They are incorrigible youths and Mr.
Plummer has given up hopes of mending
their ways. even though they are very
Young. They sold Chief OF Police Camp

posed thief was arrested yesterday

Woods volunteered 10 watch the crib and
see II they could find out how the corn
was getting away. At about 10 O'Clock
a man boldly walked up 70 the crib,
opened the door, filled a gunny sack and
started 10 walk off with the stolen booty.
Z ne SGys started for him and ne dropped
the sack and ran 10 a house near by,
which he entered.

rested. charging him with the theft. He
was brought before Judge Hauton at 4

CORN IN IMMINENT DANGER
Corn la Full FOSSIL Now and Susceptible t
Hot Winds

Farmers came in from all over Sedg-

about of one opinion regarding the corn
crop. They say that the late rain, while
IL straightened the crop up for about "a
hours. apparently did no permanent good

Of the fields are dying in the tassel. Most
corn is now in full tassel and half the

Cured heretofore viii destroy the yield.
In west Sumner and Harper the crop Is
worse off than in the north and east Of
this county. but in Kingman county on
an average fares not so bad as the coun-
try further east.

NeeOS SurfeW Dell,
''Ali coons look alike to me-" is what
Rosa Seamans meant yesterday when
She testified in Judge Gienn's court that
sae didn't know the colored boys who
are charged With trying TO outrage her,
and that it seemd to her there were "a
dozen if any more"
Clarence Buford Fred Harvel,
Jonn Scoggs, John Mitchell and Dick
Craig were the boys arrested on the
charge and defendants in the trial.
Judge keenan, and D. B. Crewson de-
Tended and County Attorney Amidon
prosecuted
Rosa Seaman was the principal wit
hess and her testimony was a running
fire of implied anarhemas upon the
whole juvenile world Of ebon hue She
said all those boys or more committed
the effense with which they were charg-
ed al the corner of Fifth and Pine on
tae night Of July End. She was the read
lest witness perhaps who ever testified
In any court in Wichita, for her answers
were always in and cold long before the
question had time 10 strike the ceiling
for echo. She said as she was going
right down 10 Mrs. Ashton's and back
just IS quiet as she could the boys ran
out from Buford'5 on North Fifth ave-
nue. and grabbed hold Of her and threw
their hands over her mouth and tried 10
trip her and pulled her clothes all loose;
thai it seemed that there were a dozen
besides John Scoggs, and when she
broke loose and ran toward the Oak
street drug storethey an followed her
Ike herd of stygian apparitions.
The defendants offered no evidence at
all and as for Clarence Buford he show
ed an artistic contempt for the whole
proceeding by sitting haf-sided on his
chair with limburger expression on his
face, saying once in a while when he
deigned to notice the affair at all that
he "wuzn't there tall" When the
whole thing was over he walked down
stairs with his hat on one side OF his
head and said as he struck the sidewalk:
'Them's high doins"
Judge Glenn in delivering mis- opinion
said that boys had no use in being oCt
at that time OF night, zen o'clock and
that Wichita NEEDED a curfew bell about
as bad as new street railway. The
boys were all bound over TO the district
court and gave bail in the sum of 800
each. They range in age from Il TO II
years.
