YOUTHFUL NEGROES
AGAIN ARRESTED
YOUNGEST GANG OF THIEVES IN
THE CITY CAUGHT STEALING
cHlcKENs-THE BOYS HAVE A
HISTORY.

The city jail is again the temporary
hotel for the worst gang of little negro
thieves which have ever made life mis-
cradle for the police force, and this time
five of them were captured in a bunch
for stealing chickens in the neighborhood
of Five Points.
The gang has been captained recently
by Arthur st. Clair, as Babe Daniels, the
regular leader is already in Jail. The
boys range in age from 10 years to Is
years, and they will steal anything that
is not nailed down.
These negroes first came into police
notoriety about two years ago when they
were arrested under the Bijou theatre,
where they had regular den filled with
all kinds of stolen property from hat
pins to lap robes and rugs. When the
police crawled under the theatre and pull
ed the gang out, a. portion of them by the
feet they found candles, empty tomato
cans, meat cans and empty cracker
boxes galore. They also found cigar
stumps, matches and every known luxury
of frst-class bachelors quarters
At that time the gang numbered about
a score and Babe Daniels was the ring
leader. Since that time many of them
have been transferred to the farms un-
! der Judge Feagins probation system, and
7 now those still at liberty are not over
five.
| Arthur and Andrew st. Clair were In
Jail some time ago, and under promises
OF better behavior they were released.
The very day that they got out they shot
and seriously wounded a negro boy, and
since that time they have been sought
for high and low by the police They
were caught Friday night loaded with
stolen chickens, and besides the charge of
larceny, one of assault with intent to
murder was placed against them.
Later the police also arrested John Wes-
| ley Johnson, Lennie Dorsey and Robert
| Murray three little negroes who the st.
Clair boys swore were interested In the
larceny of the chickens. These little
negroes have proven more troublesome
to the police department than any of the
older negroes. They will climb to a win
dow, slip through iron gratings and steal
anything they can get their hands on.
Judge Feagin expects to send all of this
gang to the country this week This will
make something like sixty little negroes
sent to the country to work on farms.
