CASE AGAINST FOURTEEN
YEAR-0LD BOY DISMISSED
American 5oys' Pecularities Made
Subject Of Discourse by Attor-
ney for Youth Charged
with Theft

The case against Charley Bidwell, IL
year-old boy, charged with the theft of
a child's bank containing 49, was yester-
day dismissed by Judge Wilbur, the court
holding the evidence against the boy was
insufficient and conflicting.
The case brought many of the residents
of Tropico to Los Angeles and the court
room was well filed w..h adults and play
mates of Charley, many of whom testi-
fed in his behalf. The theft is said to
have occurred on October 5. but the testi-
mony appeared to show that Charley with
half a dozen other boys on that day was
In Joe McQuady's store, lettering about
in an effort to shirk work around their
homes
Deputy District Attorney Blair laid
stress ON the fact that the boy carried
large number of pennies on the day of
the robbery, but Attorney George p. Ad-
ans explained that Charley had received
10 cents from Joe Bowen. 10 cents from
the baker and is cents from his sister.
The attorney, in his statement to the
court, gave a long discourse on boyish
peculiarities '"rhey think as boys, they
act as boys" ne said, land | don't want
to see them act as men at IL years. The
boy goes to school from force of habit
but all the time he is supposed to be
studying he is wondering whether his
side is going to whitewash the other base

SIX FOREIGNERS
BECOME CITIZENS
RENoUNcE ALLEGIANCE TO Ma
TIVE LANDS
Many Seek Naturalization, but Three
Are Refused - Man Waits
Twenty Years to Take
Step

six foreigners appeared before Judge
DIN Wellborn of the United States cir
cult court yesterday morning and, re-
nouncing allegiance to their native COUP
try, became citizens of the United States.
They did not become terrified when
asked by the attorney how United States
senators were elected, but knew as much
about that, apparently, as full-fedged
politician of the twentieth century.
The names Of the new citizens are:
Max Zukerman, Russia; Joseph Schwab,
Austria; Bertram Charles Davies and
John Chambers, Great Britain; Adolph A
Weishaar and Gustav f. Eifert, Ger
many.
The room was filled with those DESTROYS
of becoming citizens, but of the ten seek
ing naturalization, three were refused
without prejudice and the case of one
was continued two months.
Carl John Larsen waited too long to
carry out his intentions of becoming a
citizen, for he made his declaration in
1888, under the old law.
A new law has since been passed, de-
claring such a declaration can be made
only by one who has reached his major
ity. So Larsen will wait another two
years.

NIGHT RIDERS
RAID TOWNS
IN KENTUCKY

By Associated Press.
PARIS, KY, Jan. might riders in
vaded the Burley district late last night.
visiting two towns and destroying two
warehouses and big general store The
riders did not fire any shots in either
place, but went about their work quickly,
leaving as soon as their work had been
accomplished.
The men were all masked and heavily
armed and created reign of terror
among the citizens of the little villages.
The first visit was made to the town OF
Bethel in Bath county, village of about
500 inhabitants, whose people were en-
tirely unprepared for a raid. The riders
marched into the town shortly before
midnight, and those who were aroused
were told to go back to their houses.
The mob proceeded directly up the main
street of the village and, saturating with
oil the big independent house Of A. H.
Robinson, soon had it a mass of flames.
AS soon as the raiders had left the vii
Iage, persons rushed to the fire and at
tempted to put it out. Before they sue
ceeded the general store of Peters Bros,
adjoining the warehouse, was burning
and all efforts to save it We're futile.
From Bethel the raiders visited the little
town of Sherbourne, in Fleming county,
where they destroyed the independent
warehouse of Dougherty Bros.
No shots were fired, but the raiders, IN
order to prevent any aid from being sum-
moned, cut all telephone and telegraph
wires leading into both places.

ATTORNEYS BELIEVE
CLIENT Is INSANE
Joseph p. De Plaza, Alleged Murderer
Of A. w. Wethern, to Be Tried
by Jury as to His
Sanity

Joseph P. de Plaza. charged with the
killing of A. w. Wethern, an employee of
the Hipolito Screen and Sash company,
was before Judge Smith of the superior
court yesterday for trial. Attorneys
Brown and Rex, who had been appointed
by the court Monday to take care Of the
prisoners interests, announced that they
had associated with them Attorneys Fred
Thompson and C. Barnes. and the latter
stated that In his belief his client was
insane. He had, he said, consulted two
physicians regarding the mans condition
and ho' h declared him to be of unsound
mind.
Mr.. Barnes asked that jury be Sc
iected to pass on the mans sanity, and
at the request of District Attorney Fred
ricks the case was continued until jan
uary 16. In the time intervening the dis
trict attorneys office will make an In
yestigation on it's own account.
De Plaa's actions yesterday as he stood
in the court room indicated a pitiful con-
dition of mind. Running his fingers
through his thin hair, he stared about in
apparent amazement. Then his gaze fell
and his eyes shifted about as he looked
into every corner of the room, as If In
search of something lost. The mans face
was almost haggard and his whole body
shook as IL with chill.

SAVED BY DETECTIVE WHOSE
LIFE HE SOUGHT
Mexican Wanted for Highway Robbery
Makes a Desperate but unsuc-
cessful Effort to Gain His
Freedom

After attempting the life of Detective
Talamantes, Miguel Duarte made an un-
successful effort to kill himself at lis
o'clock yesterday morning.
That he did not succeed was due to
Talamantes, who, after disarming the
man, took him to the city jail.
Duarte is known as 1.-THE bad man of
Sonoratown," and was wanted on a
charge of highway robbery. Charges of
more serious nature may be made against
him later.
Detectives have been seeking Duarte for
several weeks. and yesterday morning he
was recognized at lunch wagon on East
First street. He was warned by a by
stander of the approach of the officer and
drew revolver from his pocket.
When Detective Talamantes placed his
hand on the mans shoulder, saying he
Wlshed to speak to him for a moment, an
answer in the affirmative was given, and
IN another moment bullet whizzed past
the officers ear.
Inc detective grappled with the man,
put before he could disarm him an at
tempt at suicide was made by the pris-
oner.
Inc weapon missed fire, and before an
other attempt could be made Duarte was
disarmed and handcuffed.

DESTITUTE MEXICANS
FED AT INSTITUTE
More Than 1900 Are Taken Care of
by Rev. Dana Bartlett and
His Corps of Assist
ants

Destitute Mexicans to the number OF
1900 were fed at the soup kitchen of the
Bethlehem Institute yesterday They will
be furnished three meals day until the
last of them have been sent to their
former homes in Mexico.
On account of inability of the roads to
provide cars none of the Mexicans were
sent from Los Angeles yesterday. This is
quite a burden on Rev. DIR. Bartlett of
the Bethlehem Institute, as he fully ex-
pected the number of poverty stricken
cholos to decrease each day. According
to arrangements at least 200 were to De
sent away each day until all had been
sent home. No matter how long they re-
main in this city waiting their turn to
leave they will be taken care Of at the in
stitution.
After the last meal of the day at s p.
m. the hall is cleared and those having
no place to sleep are allowed to rest
there. Last night over 300 took advan-
tage of this and slept Indian fashion,
rolled In blankets.
In addition to serving those who come
to the hall, food is being sent to large
number OF destitute families.
