BOYS ARE SENTENCED
Cambridge City Lads Must Go
To Reform School for
Their Acts.
THEY SEEM INDIFFERENT.

Three Cambridge City boys, who
are said to be worse than any produc-
ed in this city. were sentenced to the
Plainfield Reform school by Judge
Fox in the juvenile court this morn
ing The trio is composed of Ralph
Goodwin, aged eleven and Harry and
Clifford Hickman, aged twelve and
nine respectively. The boys are said
to be absolutely incorrigible. Recon-
mendations for their commitment TO
the reform school were made by A. r.
Feemster of the board of children S
guardians and Mrs. Gambler, probation
officer The boys have been guilty OF
a number of petty depredations about
Cambridge City. This morning Harry
Hickman admitted breaking into
Ohmit's store a week ago Sunday and
stealing bucket of candy. He pertin'
emily stated he wished he had more.
Judge Fox told the boys they would
be better cared for at the home than
they have been at their own homes
They will be kept in restraint but edu,
Gated and taught trades. Harry Hick-
man, who appears to be the leader
showed an indifference remarkable in
a lad of his years. His father blam
ed him for the short comings of his
younger brother and the boy admitted
the fact. He said he enjoyed staying
at the Home of the Friendless. where
he spent last night and would like tC
keep on staying there.

destined to be given the nomination.
THE friends of Mr.. Bryan are too
confident. There will be no nomin-
alton on the first ballot. Mr.. Bryan
will lead. but he will have no more
than 600 votes and we predict that his
friends will at once begin to dwindle.
Claims have been made that Bryan
is to have all the way from 700 to 500
votes. In this his friends are mis-
taken The Bryan boomers. for in
stance, have claimed solid delega-
ton from Ohio, whereas Judge Gray
will receive at least a dozen votes.
They have been counting upon nearly
so votes from Pennsylvania, but our
figures show that the Nebraskan Will

dition exists in Massachusetts. Judge
Gray has positive assurance Of sup
port of dozens of southern and eastern
states. Governor Johnson, Of Mime,

Gray Men Hopeful.
I'VE are sanguine that there will be
no nomination on the first ballot. and
that when it becomes apparent that
Bryan cannot win, his supporters will
begin to come over to Judge Gray.

be made by l.. I. Handy, of Whining
ton, and the seconding speech by
Peter A. O'Boyle, of Pittston, Pa. We
are in this fight to win and are conf
dent of the issue"
Much of the confidence of the Gray
managers is predicted upon the fac
that Bryan himself has given expires
sion of his appreciation of the clear
campaign waged by the friends Of the
Delaware judge. They say that the
Gray campaign is for Gray alone ant
that they have carefully avoided al
suggestions of criticism of the Nebras
ka commoner. The Johnson boomers
however, have not been so cautious
Gray's managers therefore expect tina

LIQUORS TEMPT
GEORGIA | LAWMAKERS.

Atlanta, Ga, June 30.-The Geor-
gia Legislature wants to go to
Chattanooga in body TO inspect
the states railroad property. but it
fears the gin mills and beer saloons
in the Tennessee city. The House
agreed to the trip and SO did the
Senate. But the latter reconsid-
cred and decided not to go.
Senator Brock thinks the SEN
ate is hesitating because it fears
the Chattanooga saloons. He has
written to Chattanooga officials
asking that the saloons there be
closed next Friday and Saturday
so that the Georgia solons may in
spect the states property without
danger of falling into temptation.
The House is willing to go and
run the danger of open saloons.

Mr.. Hitchcock arrived here today,

just what part each one shall play in

Want Charles p. Taft Named.
Some Of the friends of the secretary
of war would like to see his brother
Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati, made
Chairman, and many potent and sound
arguments have been advanced in his
favor. 1t has been pointed out that
the selection of Editor Taft would re
| move all ground for jealousy and rival
ry between the several men that are
ambitious to become the head of the
committee, for none of them could OBJ
ject to him with any good reason.
Associates of Harry S. New of Indian
apolis, who recently retired as chair
man, are urging his reappointment
although at Chicago, he repeatedly
asked them to make no request of the
kind in his behalf.

said that John w. Kern vii take it to

that the Nebraskan was desirous for
reasons political and otherwise, that
Indiana figure prominently in the
platform making. and as the Chicago
convention turned down such a plank,
supporters voting solidly against it,
the contrast will appear more vivid,
in the view of Bryan should the plank
go west bearing distinct Indiana
stamp, and the undivided support of
the Indiana delegation. The plank
bears no sign of quibbling. 1t is
straight-out and state leaders say ii
will pass muster at the convention
