COULD NOT STAY GOOD.
Willie Forrest Succeeds in Breaking
Into Reform School.

Willie Forrest and Manuel Rosa were
both sentenced to one year at the re-
form school by Judge Wilcox this
moinin@. They were convicted of steal
ing chickens from Gerrit p. Wilder.
The commital of young Forrest to the
reform school is a good joke on two
well known newspaper men of this city
some months ago Forrest stole a
sailing skiff and went out to sea. 1t
vas supposed that the boy had been
lost and the tug Eleu was sent in
search of him. The your%ter had
safely landed and was asleep some
where in town while the sea search for
him was being prosecuted.
High Sheriff Brown and Captain
Harry Flint decided that it would be an
excellent thing to shin the boy to sea
so they arranged with Captain Jeffrey
of the ship Arthur Sewall to take him
around to new York on the recent trip
of q vessel.
Two newspaper men with MOI 3
Cn...,lah .g-... Cnan good Judgment
scented an outrage and thought they
saw an attempt to shanghai poor in
offensive nIue Willie arounu the Horn,
so they hunted up Captain Jeffrey and
explained what an awful wrong wa0
being committed in sendin" the poor
inoffensive child to sea. The result as
that Willie was not taken to sea by the
Sewall.
High Sheriff Brown remarked at the
time, that his department would soon
er or later have to take Willie into GUS
tody. This prediction was verified
when the boy was arrested on the
CHARGE of stealing chickens The prob
abilities are that the next time some
erring youth is to be shipped to sea the
aforesaid newspaper reporters will con-
fine themselves to the facts and not
the sentiment of the case.
