Youth Who Escaped From P0-
lice in Louisville
Caught BY Detectives and Patrolmen
BY Merest Accident at Sisters
Home.
CLEVER BOY BURGLARS END

Secreted in trunk, Bert Roberts,
16 years old, the confessed house
breaker, who escaped from the police
in Louisville, and walked in and out
of police headquarters in Paducah
without molestation, was found this
morning by Patrolmen Dick Wood,
William Moore and Detectives Moore
and Baker at the residence of his
sister, Mrs. Hart, on Harrison street
between Third and Fourth streets.
The search for young Roberts has
been exhaustive. and once the detec-
tives had him within their grasp
when he escaped through Detective
II. ]. Moore's arms in his night
clothes. He will be taken to the re-
form school at once.
Bert Roberts is, perhaps, the
toughest of Paducah's young Grim
mails. Several years ago he first
made his appearance as a criminal by
holding up a man on the Rowland
town road with a rifle. His next vent
ures were petty thefts and he landed
in the reform school with a three
year term. He had been in four
months when he escaped. Returning
to Paducah the boy was not molested,
the police believing that he had re-
formed, when several house break
ing cases were reported, and Roberts
proved to be the leader of the band
of juvenile criminals responsible for
them.
A confession was secured by Pa
trolmen Clark and Sanders and Spec
ial officer Patillo Kirk, of the Mi
nOis Central. County Judge r.. T.
Lightfoot sentenced Roberts to 5
years and the others years in the
reformatory. Detectives Moore and
Baker with Police Lieut.. Tom Pot
ter started with the boys and at
Louisville Roberts made successful
dash for liberty, returning home be-
fore the policemen arrived. Since
then lively chase had been made
for the fugitive.
Sunday night at 12i o'clock the de-
tectives got on a Cairo freight train
and rode to the CohanlSus Manufact-
uring company. thinking Roberts
would take the train and escape to
Illinois. He did not. and in the
meantime Patrolmen Wood and Orr
had secured a tip that the boy was
at his sisters house. They went at
2 o'clock to her home and were read
lily admitted. No trace of the boy
could be found and the party was in
the act of leaving when the trays Of
a trunk were seen under the bed.
This gave them Chew and going to a
large trunk they lifted the top.
Roberts was inside and seeing that
escape was impossible he dressed and
went with the policemen to Jail. They
will take no chances with him again,
and will put the handouts on him
when taken to Lexington to the re
formatory.
