THE BOY AND THE Jup &c.
AJPieai instance or a Denver Ju-
dicial Celebrity's Treatment
of Youth.

seven years ago, before there was
Such thing as a juvenile court, boy
OF nine was arrested in Denver for
burglary. He was brought into the
criminal court, tried as a burglar. and
sent 10 jail. He served term of years,
curing which he learned thoroughly the
trade which he had been accused Of ply
ing. When he was released. writes
FRANCES Maule Bjorkr,an, in the Amer
lean Monthly Review of Reviews. he
began to practice in earnest. He was
rearrested, recommitted, and. after a
second term, turned loose again, more
accomplished burglar than before. A
rev months ago he was shot at by the
Denver police in an attempt to escape a
third arrest. He was captured and
brought into the juvenile court, still a
mere child that ought to have been go
ing to school,
Judge Ben" B. Lindsey, who presides
over the tribunal, was confronted by a
bold, hardened and unnaturally sharp
young expert in crime who had mysti-
lied the police by telling half dozen
different stories. Judge Lindsey began
by telling the boy that he didn't believe
him to be half as tough a kid as the
police had made him out, and that he
would not be sent up" if he was square
with the court" and made clean breast
OF his trouble with the cops
This new treatment got from the boy
his real story. He had been led into his
first offense by desire for knife with
which to make a kite His father re.
fused to get him one, and he broke into
barber shop and took razor. Ac.
cording to the letter of the criminal law,
the boy had committed a burglary. AS
there was no Juvenile" law at the time,
he was dealt with as a professional
housebreaker. Asked about his first
trial, he said to Judge Lindsey.
Jaw, de guy wild de whiskers, wot sat
up on de high bench looked over at dc
cop and de cop he says: Dis is
very bad kid; he broke into Smiths
barber shop and took a razor, and he ad-
mits it. yer honor. Den de guy on de
high bench sends me up widout givin'
me chanel to say void"
Thus, the boy was well started on
criminal career before he was ten years
old. Fortunately, he fell into the hands
or the Denver Juvenile court, which had
been established in the interval between
MS second and third arrest, while he
was still able to pull up" Instead Of
telling him that he was bad boy and
sending him to Jail again, Judge Lind
sey told him that he was bully fell
low" and set him free-no probation.
To-day that boy is still going uphill as
fast as he was going downhill before.

FRleHTENs HIS BROTHER RATS
Rodents Will Not Associate With

One of the old school-book stories

FINS ARE SIMILAR TO WINGS.
Flying Fish Really Propei Themselves
Through the Air.

Through the Air.
Does the flying fish really fly, or Is
the so-called flight a mere extended
leap, in which the fins are used on
the principle Of the aeroplane to float
or rest on the air, and SO afford sup
port to the body? The question has
been much discussed, and many nat
uralists have denied 1t the power of
true flight. Mr.. Frank Bullen, who in
his many voyages has had unique op.
portunities for observing the flying
fish, is emphatic in the assertion that
1t does really fly in the proper sense
of the word. He has seen it. for ex
ample, change it's course at a sharp
angle when an obstacle INTERVIEWED
and when about to re-enter the water
he has seen it rise and continue its
course on seeing an enemy below.
Some recent observations contributed
by Lieut.. Col Durnford to the Lon.
don Annals and Magazine of Natural
History, confirm this view. The
writer contends that the ordinary
aeroplane theory involves a mechani-
cal impossibility. The true explana
ton Is an intensely rapid vibration Of
the winglike fins-a vibration which
becomes apparent to the eye as 1t
slows down when the fish reaches the
water.-London Globe.

Spider Lives Long on Liaht.

Little Miss Muffet's spider was per-
haps not so hungry as he looked.
M. j. H. Fabre has studied the spi-
der's powers of fasting. He noticed
that the mother spider carries its lit
tie ones on its back for seven months
and thai during that time the young
spiders consume absolutely no food.
He concluded from this observation
that il is the solar heat and light that
for them directly takes the place OF
nourishment. In other words, the
motor heat in these young animals,
instead of being released from the
food, might be utilized directly as the
sun, source of all life. radiates it.
