IN THE POLICE COURT
Boy commsstsd 10 Connscti cticut School
 Ly Judge PsAs.sy.

Judge Peasley presided in the police court this morning.
 Mary Durham, an old offender was found hanging onto the fence on East Nam street yesterday by Officer Cron- in. The walks were very slippery and the officer escorted the woman to Har- rison avenue. The court thought the Brookside home a good place for her to spend a few weeks and ordered her sent there for thirty days.
 Michael Dooley went into the new rectory of the Italian church Saturday and started to give workmen lessons of plastering and was .leclaiming so vociferously somebody called Onicer Kiersted and Dooley was hustled oft to the station house. He admitted that he had "a beer or two too many {. but denied that he had done any harm. He came to town to buy q suit of clothes and if not detained would be off this morning to his job digging post holes for the telegraph company at $50 month and his board. He had been ''up'' a few times before on similar charges, and after q long pause the court imposed q sentence of thirty days in jail.
 James Jorsick, boy not yet twelve years old. was charged with stealing S1O from the residence of Mrs Eliza beth Zorn last Tuesday. The woman's son, Jacob Zorn, gave evidence which made things look pretty bad for Jor- sick. During the hearing it developed that the accused did steal the money, hut 1,f f.fl hnII nf o rp- turned it to, Mrs Zorn. Attorney Reeves, acting as guardian and coun- sel for the accused. explained the sit uation and made an able. plea for mercy. Considering the boys tender years, Mir Reeves believed that it would make no mistake to give the youngster q reprimand and give him :, over to the care of his father. De tective Dodds was put on the stand and he explained that Jorsick was ar rested last April for entering house in Simonsville and stealing a pocket book and eye glasses, but he got off easy because of his years and was turned over to his father. The court also reminded counsel for the accused that he was of the opinion that the home influence of the boy were not conductive to honesty. adding that his older brother is now in the Connecti- cut home for boys and he believed the best thing to with James was commit him to the institution until he reaches his majority and if he shows dis position to do better he will be let out after q year. This was the sen, tence imposed.
 The Jorsicks lived for q time lin Mohawk park, but they removed to the North end. The father of the boys appears to be hard working. well meaning man, but the boys are incor- rigibles and although he had done his best to control them all his efforts proved of no avail. They would run away from school, stay out nights and cut up all kinds of capers, notwith- standing that they knew their father was after them with a stick.
