composed a committee from the wom-
ans auxiliary of the California prison
association and were Miss l. L. Nc
Kinstry, Mrs. Gaillard Stoney and Mrs.
Marcus Koshland.
Murray pleaded guilty a week ago
TO the charge Of petty larceny. commit
ted after a prior conviction. The mans
answers to the questionings Of Judge
Dunno proved him rather more a
sveakling than a criminal He seemed
be one of those unfortunate .charac-

and his crime was put the stealing

he was hungry" Dunno declared that
he would give the man another chance

willing TO stand by him and give him a

wise he must stand by his crime and
bear the punishment of the law
While the three society DANES were
waiting for Murray's case to be called
they were attracted by the plea made
by Albert Thompson, an Englishman, 21
years of age, who pleaded guilty to his
first offense-that> of assault with in
tent to commit robbery Thompson. a
fine, clean-cut young fellow, made the
same plea which has been heard time
and again in the criminal courts since
the days of the recent panic. He had
come TO San Francisco four days before
to obtain work as a boiler maker, but
could not get any. His last dime he
spent for glass of beer and a free
lunch. and then, on the advice of EN-
met Carleton, minor also suffering
from the stomach pinch. decided to
rob. the first man they met. They made
horrible bungle of the job and were
arrested half an hour later. Carleton
was sent to the reform school, but
Thompson, being a few months older
and over age, had TO face the peni-
tentiary. The committee promised to
investigate his case and see what could
be done.
This has been the first work taken
up by the organization for some time
past, and it has been met with the
heartiest approval and support by the
criminal judges and the district attor-
ney's office. In the criminal dragnet
there are many who show great prom
ise of better things, but who. if AL
lowed to run unchecked. would coon
develop into criminals of the first
water Many. of them are young fellows
mere boys-driven desperate by hun
ger.
Lack of work and hunger drives
many more men to crime than is gem
orally imagined" said Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Ferrari. and if these
good women can find employment for
these unfortunate yours ae lows thes
will be doing the community an inn
mense amount of good The district
attorneys Office is only too glad to see
them doing the work and will aid them
in every possible way"
