Mrs. Bath, the mother of George
Bath, one of the gang of youthful bur
glars who robbed a store on West Park
few nights ago of a lot of cheap
watches called on County Attorney
Connolly yesterday and made a plea for
her boy. The charge of burglary had
been dismissal as to four of the other
young thieves, because they were under
the age Of II, the age at which the law
says a boy can be guilty of crime The
Bath boy was the only one over that
age, and although released on his own
recognizance it has been the intention
of the prosecuting attorney to send him
to the reform school. The mother said
the boy was a good boy, but had fallen
into bad company and she wanted to
give him another chance. Mr.. Con-
molly heard her plea and said he was
willing to give the lad another trial.

court on Saturday morning and leave
the matter with Judge Clancy.
