JUDGE LINDESY
 STANDS BY BOYS
DELIVERED A STRONG ADDRESS LAST NIGHT ON THE BOY AND THE srAre"-REcEpTloN AT BOYS CLUB YESTERDAY.

Judge Ben B. Lindsey of the juvenile court of Denver Col, was the guest of the Birmingham Boys club yesterday. and made very forceful address last night at the First Presbyterian church on ''The Boy and the State
 He was introduced by Judge Feagin of the Birmingham police court. who has done so much for the criminal boy in Alabama. The judge Is an entertaining speaker. He impressed by many illus trations of the actual incidents in his court, the importance of caring for the child, keeping him out of temptation, and providing ways for his correction. He was against Imprisonment or confine- ment with hardened criminals.
 The action of the legislature in call ing up the repeal of the juvenile court bill he considered a deplorable step which would hold the state back for many years. The judge left last night for New Orleans
 He was tendered reception at the Boys club yesterday afternoon by the ladies of the board of control. Light re- treatments were served, a number of prominent citizens attended, and the club rooms were inspected.

Breaks Our of Jail and
 Sahs Way Back Again
Fred Suttes Mere Youth Hard Keep Up With For Breaks Into Jail or Out Of Jail With
 Equal Facility

Again comes news of the bold and somewhat mysterious work of Fred Suttles. Another chapter is added to the already sensational story of his escapes from prisons. The condition that makes things interesting and so puzzfing and gives the tinge of sensa- tionalism Is the youth of the prisoner Suttles is young white man not more than 19 years old. certainly. He has never shaved and the growth of hair on his face would not indicate that he is more than IT or 1s years of age
 The young man, it will be remem- tempt to escape from the county bas- tile by climbing out of the chimney aad who was afterwards "sent up" to Flat Top for burglarizing one of the commissarles near Birmingham. He afterwards escaped from the mines, and to remind the men who sent him up, he broke into the commissary again. fitted himself in the best clothes in the house, placed his stripes where they would be easily seen, as a reminder that he had been there, and then left for Birmingham, where he was arrest ed on Morris avenue few days later.

ALABAMA DELEGATES ARE FUR ROOSEVELT Will Ge To National Convention
 With Instructions THOMPSON IS POSITIVE Believes That If Roosevelt Is the Nom- nee There Is Strong Probability
 of Swinging Alabama Into
 Republican Column.
THOMPSON IS POSITIVE

If the repeated ayowals of President Theodore Roosevelt are to be believed it must be true that the republicans are volens the nomination for a third cleo tive term
 In the words of J. o. Thompson, in ternal revenue collector, and chairma n of the republican state executive com mittee, there is no doubt but that Ala bamas delegation to the national repub- lican convention will be instructed for the President.
 Whether or not there is concerted movement 1t is true that the majority of southern states are preparing to take similar steps Republicans in Alabama, and many democrats, too. are of the opinion that MT. Roosevelt will again receive the nomination, and that he will accept it, stating that the unanimity of the proposal makes him the standard bearer perforce.
 Friends of the President in Brmng- ham declared yesterday that the nomi- nation of the President would necessari- ly mean his election They do not feel that the antipathy to a third term idea will subtract from his strength. They do not consider, as does Col John W.. Tominson, and other democrats that the present financial stress will cause a popular desire TOT change of. admin istration. They consider, too. that the nomination will be offered the President unanimously.
 In answer to a query from a New York newspaper, MT. Thompson stated unqualifiedly yesterday afternoon that the Alabama delegation would be instructed for the President There is no doubt of that fact" he continued. We espe- cally desire that step because we believe that by Roosevelt's nomination Alabama will be swung into the republican col umn." Mir Thompson intimated that Alabama's electoral vote would more probably be cast for Roosevelt than for Taft or Hughes.
 That First Assistant Postmaster Gen eral F. H. Hitchcock is interesting him self in the nomination of the President gained force yesterday when it was posi- lively learned that he participated last Saturday in the republican conference at Knoxville .n addition J. o. Thomp- son of Alabama, H. Clay Evans, ex- consul general to London, Congressman Hale of Knoxville and Newell Sanders, chairman of the republican state commit l tee of Tennessee, were present. All of the I participants are warm friends of the i President. The report Is general that in l case of MT. Roosevelt,s being elected l for a third term, Hitchcock will become | his private secretary, succeeding Will l liam Loeb, Jr.
 W. H. Skaggs of Chicago, well posted on things political stated in Birmingham yesterday that he foresaw but one danger to Roosevelt's election In the case of his nomination. and that was the possibility of his embracing the Wall street in terest in the present financial stress. He stated, however that he considered Roosevelt too adroit to make such an error.

capped for the second time, but more was to be heard of him. The last scene Is interesting indeed.
 Imagine a 17-year- boy, after es- caping from Flat Top, going to Mont gomery, buying steel saws a-plenty. and then going up to the pehitentiary at Speigners and saving his way into the prison during the day timel Those are the actions credited to young Sut- ties. But there is more which sounds romantic.
 The boys affections for woman inn prisoned in the penitentiary prompted him to break into the prison. The story runs that he sawed his way into the penitentiary during the day time. while the cells were open, and after gaining an entrance secreted himself in the woman's cell until she was again locked up, and during the following night sawed the lock from the door. took the woman with him and they left the prison by the way which he had entered.
 Shortly after they left the sawed lock was discovered and dogs were put on the trail. Suttles and his friend were run down after having gone about five miles. And now the young man has been sent back to Flat Top the woman to the penitentiary
 Suttles remarked as he left the Big Rock" yesterday: ''fiope I'll see you boys again soon." He will if the luck of the past stays with him.

 It Is pointed out that the cashiers checks first issued were printed hurr1edly and were very crude and more or less easily tempered with. Each bank had a different form and it was difficult to keep track of all of them. While only few of the checks were returned to the banks showing traces of having been tempered with 1t was recognized by the banks that all possibility of counterfeiting the checks should be removed.
 The first of the new certificates were put into circulation yesterday and others will be put out today. It is estimated that the greater part os the old cashiers checks will be redeemed by next Monday.
