Experience with Municipal Plant.
W. NJ. Sanger. a newspaper man Of
Ciarinda. who Is IN the city attending the
term OF United States court as a member
Of the petit Jury panel. believes that the
municipal ownership OF the water works
in Council Bluffs would be losing PROPOSE
ton for the taxpayers and the city gem
orally. Mr. Sanger bases this opinion on
the experience Of hts home town Clarinda
owns its own water works system. but
after operating Il discovered that several
thousand dollars a year could be saved by
turning It over to a private corporation.
The electric light company now operates
the water works plant with its own ma
chinery and power, that belonging TO the
city standing idle. The company operating
the water works, besides furnishing electric
light and power. manufactures artificial
ice and supplies steam heat to a consider
able portion OF the city.
Mr. Sanger. while discussing matters in
general yesterday; mentioned the fact which
had not been noticed In the press dis
patches, that twenty-seven coal miners and
their families who have been supported in
idieness By the United States Mine Work
ers' association since the strike of about
a year ago were deported last week from
Clarinda to other places where they could
secure employment.

FOR TIE BOYS
Admit 7h,y PrOke Open EOrthwsitsrn Car
and Took some Corn,
ALL CHILDREN OF MPUTAsLE PARENTS
Admonished Another ORense would
Land Them in Reform school and
Then Discharged ~ Judge
wheeler.

Judge Wheeler had before him yester-
day morning in the Juvenile division Of
the district court fourteen boys whose
ages ranged from 10 70 IA years. The
youngsters were charged in an information
filed by Detective Weir with breaking into
Northwestern freight car and stealing
a quantity OF corn. with but one OF two
exceptions the boys were neatly dressed,
clean and were shown to be regular at
tsndants at school.
During the hearing, which lasted the en-
tire morning. It developed that the lads
had frequently been given permission by
the yard men to sweep the floors of cars
from which corn had been unloaded and
take homo what they thus gathered. Thus
they became familiar with the railroad
yards and surroundings and II was not
long natil one Of their number suggested
an easier way Of obtaining corn and I'm
larger quantities. A car was broken into
and II is said some of the lads carried the
corn away In sacks, while one Is alleged
to have taken quite a quantity in 3 wagon.
Duvan Miles, one OF the lads arraigned,
was manly enough to admit that he opened
the door OF the car and several others
made no denial Of the fact that they had
helped themselves to the corn. Judge
Wheeler impressed upon the youthful de-
PENDANTS the gravity OF their offense and
explained 20 them that had they passed
the age of 1e years they could have been
sent to the penitentiary for breaking into
a freight car. AS It was, he said. they
were standing on the very threshold OF
she reform school and they could be sent
there for what they had done. The Judge,
however, taking into account the youth OF
the lads and their evident respectability.
was inclined to be lenient, and after adj
monishing them as to their future be-
havior and what would happen II they were
brought before him again. discharged them.
