Tuesday Reading club and was men

fers to Help Him-Youngster Is
Willing to Reform.

Bruce Stearns. the Gary messenger
boy who admits robbing Klainschmidt's
store in Gary of over $40 and who has
committed several depredations in this
and other cities, has made a full con-
fession of his crimes to Chief of Police
Benjamin jarrett of South Bend. Rev.
William E. Wallis of that city, who is
engaged IN missionary work, is now en-
gagged in securing the lease of the boy.
Rev. Wallis has already written Mr..
Kleinschmidt asking him not to prose-
cute the boy if the latter would promise
to go to work If he was released and
pay up what he owed him. He has also
made the same proposition to all Of
those whom he has victimized in Misha-
waka.
The letter, which he wrote to Mr..
Kleinschmidt, was in part:
am now in jail for stealing at
Mishawaka. Now I am by myself
here and have very dear friends
here who are helping me here, and
have home waiting for me when
get out If you will withdraw the
charge on me, I will pay all that
owe you, which I stole from you.
Kindly answer as soon as possible
and please forgive me.
His full confession was as follows:

down there--I do not know where he is
now-persuaded me to go and steal
some gum. Ny father and mother had
a drug store there and I was consider
ed honest by them. in fact I was too
small to think of taking anything that
didn't belong to me. But this boy told
me to get him some gum and, not
knowing any better, thought it would
be fine to get a lot of gum and give to
him and mamma and papa wouldn't
know anything about it. Well, I got
it and gave it to him and thought no
more about it until the next day. when
his mother came over to the store and
the gum came with her. Then I got
the first whipping I ever got In my
life for stealing
The next thing I stole that 1 re-
of was gold locket that be-
longed to my mother. took it to
school with me and dropped it down the
register. The next day was Saturday
