SOMETHING RADICALLY WRONG

There is something altogether wrong
about the system in Kentucky that per-
mits the arrest Of a 5-year-old boy on
a charge of stealing horses, followed
by a conviction and a long reform
school sentence. The Louisville Courier
Journal tells the story. The boys name
is Dewey TrOutman. He lived with his
report, which is almost beyond belief,
when we remember the tender age of
the boy, Dewey had a mania for climb
ing into delivery wagons and driving
them away, merely for the pleasure of
riding. We are asked to believe that
he had been engaging in the practice
for a year, or from the time he was 4
years old.
The final exploit of this incredibly
precocious youngster was the theft o.
three horses and two buggies within a
period of forty minutes. He drove one
animal attached to a buggy until ne
was tired of it; then he abandoned that
outfit for another horse and buggy
When the. police got their first view of
him he had abandoned the second horse
and buggy and was blitheIy mounted
on fine saddle horse. AT sight of the
officers" the story runs, the lad put
spurs to the animal and dashed away"
A chase of ten squares followed before
young Troutman was finally captured.
Can you draw in your minds eye a
picture of that desperate criminal,
squirting his horse to it's utmost speed
in order to escape from the officers ?
Can't you see the little round-faced,
fat-legged, shOTt-armed 5-year-old rae
ing along on the stolen thoroughbred?
OF course you can. And the scene in
court later when he was arraigned.
tried and convicted, this 5-year-oId
baby boy, sent I'm the custody of a de-
tective to the reform school, waiting in
Louisville five hours for a train and be-
ing locked up in the county jail for that
period What a fine, big-hearted fellow
that detective must be, But he couldn't
run the risk of a break for liberty by
the shocking desperate in his custody.
And what of the boys father and
mother, the father and mother who
couldn't control a boy 3 years old Z?
What excuse viii they have to offer
before the Great Judge, before the One
who loved little children? Yes, and
what Of the baby who is thus started,
even encoura ged to become a real GRIM
inal? What chance will he have in life?
1t will not be surprising, after this re-
cital, if We hear at some future time
that a 2-year-Old boy has been convict
ed Of assault with intent to commit
murder for petuIantly striking his
mother with a rubber rattle.

A Dinner De Luxe.

Mr.. Plates, the welI-known publisher
Of subscription sets, gave a de luxe
dinner last Thursday evening to the
authors connected with his fiourishing
house. and not since the Mark Twain
banquet has so distinguished a group
Of men of letters been seen as that
which gathered at the old Clarendon
hotel. Among those present were Sir
Walter Scott, Charles Dickens, William
NJ. Thackeray, Alexander Dumas,
George Eliot, Honore de Balzac, Jane
Austen, Anthony Trollope, Louise
Muhlback (Klara Muller), and Mr.. Plu-
tarch. Letters of regret were read from
William Shakespeare, Edward Gibbon
and Henry Fielding.
The after-dinner speaking was un-
usually brilliant. The following toasts
were responded to:
Miss Austen: ''Pessimism and the
Modern Lady Novelist"
Mr. Dumas: Some Indiana Roman
GERS Who Have Influenced Me"
Mr. Dickens: GOOD Literature on
the InstaIlment Plan; the Age of Cou-
pom"
Mr.. BaIzac: my Debt to Henry
Mr.. Plates: Hands Across the
Sea-
Mr. Plates said in part: Ladies and
gentlemen, I am grateful for this op-
portunity to express my pleasure in the
fact that the cordial relations existing
between you as authors and me as pub
Usher have never been subjected to the
slightest strain. Acrimony between an
author and his publisher is too often
the case nowadays. Sometimes an au-
thor feels that he is not receiving a
sufficiently large royalty; sometimes
he suspects (unjustly, of course) that
more of his books were sold than his
statements show; or he may be dissat-
isfied with the amount of advertising
which is spent in pushing the sales of
his works. I am happy to say that
l have never received a line of COM
plant or criticism from any of my
authors. On the other hand, you will
give me credit for printing your mas
terpieces in the best de luxe bindings
and making them known to apprecia-
tive millions. 1t cannot but please you
to learn that, although none of your
works are listed monthly among the
Best Selling Books" they sell stead
lily from year to year in countless thou
sands 1t is true that I have never
sent you a sixpenCe in royalties, and ]
appreciate the delicacy with which you
have refrained from mentioning the
matter; you understood the great pub
fishing expense / was under. Still, I
am ready to pay each and every one of
you an honOrarium of so, which is,
believe, the usual thing in such cases.
Ladies and gentlemen, drink to your
continued health and deathless popu-
larity."

MRS. DAY ENTERTAINS.

The afternoon party at which Mrs
II. S. Day entertained a large number
of ladies yesterday, at her delightful
home on East Main street, was an ex-
ceedingly pleasant affair
Pink and white We're the colors
employed in the decorations, and
clusters of sweet peas danintily ar
ranged, gave prominence to these col
ors.
Two novel contests were enjoyed
by the guests. The first was a draw
ing contest. Each was given card
and asked to draw some object as.
signed to them. Mrs. Ursa S. Abbott
captured the favor, a beautifur MA
donna Head"
There was literary contest in
which Mrs. A. c. Newton was the
successful contestant and she received
a handsome volume of that popular
romance, Monsieur Beaucaire."
Both contests created an immense
amount of merriment.
Not many prettier luncheons than
that served by Mrs. Day has added to
the pleasure of an afternoon party.
The menu was most charming.
Mrs. Day can be classed among the
very successful hostesses of the social
circles and her party yesterday ranks
high in the spring calendar of social
successes.

GREAT RAIN FALL.
The Heavy Rains Break Many Rec
ords' for This Section.-Total
fall is .S3 Inches.

Many Inquiries were made at the
weather bureau office this morning
IS to the extent of the rains that fell
n the city and valley Wednesday
night and yesterday.
The rain was one of the heaviest
md most prolonged that has fallen
in the valley in years.
The total precipitation OF TINS
torn was 1S3 inehes, it was the
heaviest fall recorded in any "a hours
n the month of May, during the
past fifteen years.
Some very Interesting data was
furnished the Sentinel this morning
BY Observer Hardinge, of the local
bureau.
For the benefit of those making in
quiries Mr.. Hardinge compiled pre-
eipitation data showing the rainfall
for the various months during per-
iod of fifteen years.
The average precipitation for the
month of May during this long per-
iod has been SO. The greatest month
ly precipitation recorded for the
month in any of these years has
been 1.9S, this was recorded in 1905.
The least monthly precipitation re
corded was O6 in the year 1900.
Up to the last rain the greatest
amount OF pIttlllldAlOI IeNOidGu III
any twenty-four hours in the month
Of May was 1.02. and this was record
ed last year. But as stated above the
last rain breaks all records.
During the past fifteen years there
has been only one heavier rain re-
corded in the valley, that is rain
that occurred within a period of -
hours. On September 1929, 1896
total of PIG inches fell in the val
ley.
September 1896, holds the record
for the greatest monthly rainfall in
the valley. The total for that month
was BIB.
The total rainfall for this month
promises to rank among the high
est.
1t is reported that heavy rains fell
throughout this section of the state.
and heavy falls are reported from
many other sections.
1t was a great rain, a slow but
steady downpour and the ground is
certainly well soaked No serious
damage is reported as a result of the
rains and the heavy fall will not hurt
the fruit in any way.
The maximum temperature yester-
day was AZ degrees, the minimum
was AZ degrees. The precipitation
for the twenty-four hours beginning
yesterday morning at six O'Clock was
1.3l inches. Partly cloudy tonight
and Saturday with local showers. war

Frank Sargent were kept posted at all times as to the progress of the South Car oina plan. The commissioner of that state, E. J. Watson. went abroad, and, after a two months campaign, was re- markably successful. He succeeded in in- ducing the North German Lloyd company to run a ship direct to Charleston. with the understanding that if the experiment was satisfactory permanent line would then be established.
 He received the heartiest support from the bureau of immigration, because. ian- der a recent amendment to the immigra- ton law, by a special proviso, states and territories are allowed to advertise abroad which Is forbidden to persons and cor porations From this it was argued that a sovereign state had right, unless spe- officially prohibited by law, to induce in- migrants to come into that state. and even to go so far as to pay their passage and insure them work

ADVERTISING AN ART.
Should Be Made an Art That Calls Beauty to It's Service.

From Sylvester Baxter's "The Nuisances
 of Advertising in the January Cen
 tury.
 Advertising hass indeed become an art. IL remains for itN to become if not fine art, at least an art that calls beauty to its service. When it does, much of the energy that is now msdirected much of the money that is. now prodigally wasted in destroying the worlds beauty, will be saved.
 The right procedure is indicated by the most conspicuous medium for public ad- vertisng The press, in it's daily. weekly or monthly forms, offers altogether the best means for calling public attention to all sorts of things. The best of public l1ournals-those which are recognized as the most desirable mediums for adver- ltising, and which consequently obtain the highest prices for their services-mal<e 1t a rule to classify and restrict in judi cious manner the advertisements that Ithey print They ,confine them to cer- tain parts of the publication. they re- ,strict their display to certain decorous styles of type, recognizing that to admit "a helter-skelter distribution through all ,columns, or to display them in incoherent fashion according to the whims of the ladvertsiers. would largely destroy the very objects held in view The readers of these journals would resent the in- trusion of advertising matter into the space set apart for news. editorials. etc, and the influence that gives the advertis- 1ng its value would decline.
 In the same way, the formsiof advertis-
