committed before and which is popu-
larly known as the "Carrefour du

One OF them was already dead and
the other was dying, but before he ex-

that the crime had been committed by
four young fellows who had attacked
them as they We're leaving a cafe, and
tried to rob them of their pay.
The police soon afterward arrested
the four young fellows, and among
these was the boy who was brought up
for trial. He was the youngest Of the
gang and had taken no real part in
the crime. The other three, however.
had persuaded him that because of his
age he would not be sentenced to
death, the heaviest punishment that
could be inflicted upon him being
only an order to shut him up in a
house of correction until he was
twenty-one.

them to appear in court.

weeks the young lad who had pleaded
guilty r%etracted his confession and
wrote letter after letter asserting his
Innocence. but the court refused to
take notice until suspicion was

WOMEN or GREAT BRITAIN


The present woman suffrage agita-
ton In England Is q matter OF a good
deal more Importance to the British
nation than the people on this side OF

male mobs'' that come In contact with
