Juvenile Court Methods In N. D.

States Attorney George W..
Thorp of jamestown has adopted
Juvenile court methods in hand
ling the younger members of the
community who are brought before
him as offenders of the law. He
will try to keep the youthful
offender out of Jail and at the
same time bring him to a realiza-
ton that he is a citizen who must
obey laws.
He now has six boys under
sixteen years of age under sur
Vigilance. After being given a
lecture on the error Of their ways
we're released on probation with
the provision that they report to
the officer every Saturday, and
give an account of what their
conduct has been for that week.
This has proven a good solution
of the problem Of dealing with
young boys in Colorado SO why
not in this state.

pending the outcome.
At the North Wheeling hospital.
where he was taken two weeks ago,
h was reported today as improved, but
still critically i'll. Despite his weaken
ed condition the authorities ventured 10
tell him of Mrs. Schenck's arrest, but
he is said TO hav only remarked: IF
ali tEesc things are true, she is where
she ought to be-"
That further arrests are to be made
was admitted by Prosecuting Attorney
Handlan Chief of Police Hastings.
The unnamed suspects are expected
TO cast light OF the manner in which
arsenic or some other drug might have
found it's way into heeSchenck home.

. sale of poisonous drugs without regis
tration of the purchaser. In this con-
nection it is said physicians will be

OVER BRUTAL MURDER
Suspicion of Killing Girl Rests
on Negro, Who Denies
Being Guilty.

Asbury Park, n. Y Nov. 16.-This
city and neighborhood were In a fer
ment Of excitement today over the un-

MEXICAN LYNCHINGS
UP To The GOVERNORS
Haskell and Campbell Will Try
to Prevent Further Acts
of Violence.
Washington,

washington, Nov. 1.-THE fulfill
ment of President Taft's promise to
President Diaz to bring o the pun
ishment of the persons who burned the
supposed Mexican Antonio Rodriguez
at Rock Springs, Tex, N to protect
Mexicans In this country, appears to
depend on the good will of the governors
of Texas and Oklahoma.
Governor Campbell, Of Texas, already
has promised to make an investigation
OF the lynching, and a telegram re-
ceived at the state department last
night from Governor Haskell, in an
swer TO an urgent request from Secre-
tary Knox to guard the safety of Mex
leans in Oklahoma, and particularly to
prevent any attempt to lynch the man,
supposed to be a Mexican, who killed
the chief OF police at Anadarko, pledges
the governor to comply with the re-
quest.
The state department has not been
able to confirm the report that Rod
riguez was not a Mexican, but a ma
tive-born American, but II is expected
Investigations now in progress will
clear that point.
A telegram from Ambassador Wilson
in the City of Mexico, informs the state
department that throughout Mexico
Sunday passed without any recurrence
of the anti-American outbreaks.

DR.. HYDE CURSES
SCHOOL GIRL WHO
PEEPS into CELL
They Betray Too Much Curiosity
and Jeer the Prisoner When
He Exhibits His
Wrath.

Kansas City, Nov. 15~.-ITheye are
several girl pupils of the Kansas Com
mercial college, Kansas City, Kas,
whose curiosity to see the inside Of O
prison was more than satisfied Fri
day afternoon. Also they will not be in
haste 80 seek another interview" with
DR.. B. Clark Hyde, convicted of the
murder OF Colonel Thomas II. Swope.
In a trip of inspection" through the
county Jail they encountered an incl
dent they had not bargained for.
though they provoked 1t.
Prof. Q. M. West, principal OF the
school, conducted a class of 80 boys
and girls, ranging In ages from IA to
il years, on what he called a reward
for-good-conduct trip" which included
visits to the paper mills at GuInotte
n Woodland avenues and the county
jail. The pupils were shown through
the jail building by James Gilwee, chief
deputy marshal.
Visited the GaIIows, Too.
After the young people had swarmed
past cells filled with men and women
prisoners, they were allowed to troop
up the gallows stairs and stand on the
scaffold and gaze down through the
open trap. Then they wanted to see
DR.. Hyde.
They were taken to his cell on the
LulIu TIER III the west wing Oh tne
prison. They called 10 r..m to draw
aside the sheet which, hung across
the bars, protects him from the peer
ing eyes Of the curious. He refused, so
they clamored. That angered the pris-
oner and he shouted to them to go
away. Instead, several of the boys and
girls clambered up by clinging to the
bars and adjoining cells, and called
teasingly to him.
They Tainted the Doctor.
You must think you're too pretty to
be looked at" one of them said.
DR.. Hyde, enraged, seized a stick and
struck at them through the bars of his
cell. Deputy Gilwee afterward said that
DR.. Hyde cursed one Of the school girls
In ordering her to get DOWN from there
and go away"
II am opposed to children being al
lowed in the county jail at any time"
Judge Latshaw said, when told about
h school children's experience with
Dr.. Hyde. II believe hat going through
a Jail and looking at the prisoners
puts wrong ideas into the minds of
children. 1t is not customary for chill,
dren to go through the Jail. When a,
child to the jail to see anyone,
I order the prisoner to be brought from
his cell into the office.
Curtain Must Come Down.
"Dr. Hyde had no right to have a
curtain in front of his cell, and tomor-
row l shall order the marshal to deal
with Hyde as he does with the other
prisoners"
eve went through the paper mill in
he East Bottoms yesterday" Prof.
owen NJ. West said. After leaving
there one Of the boys proposed going
to the county jail, and as most of the
children never had seen 1T, l took them
through it. I know nothing about the
boy climbing up TO see DIR. Hyde, as
! was not in that part of the jail at
the time"

MENTAL CONDITION OF
COUNT Is QUESTIONED

Tula, Russia, Nov. 15.-Tne mystic
rious disappearance Of Count Leo FOL
stoi, the Russian novelist and SOCIAL
reformer, has made a painful t1pres-
sion. That he should decide 81 spend
the evening of his days in solitude sur
prises no one acquainted with his ca
reer, but that he should deliberately de-
sert the wife who had borne him nine
children is difficult Of belief even In
the light of his well known ecCentrtci-
ties Of character.
The suggestion Of a failing mentality
Is accepted by many in explanation Of
the counts sudden leaVe-taking, which
may have a tragic sequel, as the count
ess is Frustrated. 1t has heen reported
that she had attempted ner life. The
family was without q clue today. In a
letter left for his wife the count said:
az can not continue 20 I've surround
ed by luxury and, like many other old
men, I retire from the world to COM
plete my life in solitude. I ask that you
do not seek my place of sojourn and
that you do not come to 1t, If 1t Is dis
covered. I beg forgiveness for the grief
that I may cause YOU"
Lived Like Peasant.
The novelist's reference to livins
amid luxurious surroundings is signif1-
CANT OF MS STATE OF NINA, as ne mas
long lived the life of a peasant. While
his family occupied a substantial man
sion on the Y~aSneaya POliana estate,
Tolstoi's abode was a peasants hut,
partaking only of the simple PEASANTS
food and wearing the peasants Co.'S
tune, a rough blouse, wide trousers
tucked into his cowhide boots, a leath-
er belt and a fur cap. He has not al
ways continued this humble mode of
life, but 1t has been his choice.
The first news of Tolstoi's disappear
ance came from Prince Dimitry Obol-
ensky, who says the count left his
home several days ago accompanied by
DR.. Makovsky, his physician. That the
doctor should be a party to the affair
is another tnexplicable feature. Mako
vetsky became the companion of the
count In succession to the latter's pri-
vate secretary, M. Guseff, whom the
exiled to Siberia, alleging
that he had influenced T%olstois anti
governmental writings.
Has Had Bad Health.
Tolstoi has been In i'll health for
some time. He suffered frequent fait-
ing spells and on October Is was I'M
conscious for hours. Later it was re-
ported that he had improved somewhat.
In his writings Tolstoi has condemned
Suicide as immoral AMI irrational and
as indicating a perverted view Of the
significance of life.
1t is believed Toistoi proceeded to an
old monastery in the government of
Kaluga, which adjoins the government
Of Tula on h west.
