YOUTH THOUGHT TO BE
CHRONIC KLEPTO MANIAC

John Andrews, young man who has
served three Jail sentences for theft
since June 7, appeared in Police Judge
Austins court for the fourth time yes
terday to answer to a charge of steal
ing.
This time he was accsued of having
stolen pair of trousers from Norton
Bros clothing store on Main street
October 6.
All the thefts with which he has beer
tried have been trivial ones, in almost
every instance consisting of articles OF
clothing. The fact that he persists In
taking worthless articles which invari-
ably land him in Jail for a long SEN
tence causes the police to believe that
he suffers from chronic kleptomania.
He was yesterday held over to the su-
perior court, as Judge Austin expressed
the opinion that an ordinary Jail sen.
tence would not be sufficient
