FOR LOVE OF A GIRL
Two California High School Boys Had
Fight To Finish.

San Mateo. Cal, May S.-Stripped
to the waist and using bare fists,
David Caldwell and Otto George, two
freshmen of the, local High school,
fought an eight round battle in the
basement of the school recently,
Caldwell finally winning by knock
out. The boys are said to be rivals
in love, and bitter feud between
them resulted in the encounter.
The blow that lost George the fight
rendered him unconscious, and it is
reported it was long after the referee
counted the fatal ten before he re-
covered.
George. it is said, has challenged
Caldwell to return fight.

Mr.. cownie Does Not Believe in Cor.

Methods Of Control Should Be Used
Cites Instances Of Cruelty in lnsti-

Des Moines, April John Cownie,
who retired Tuesday as member of
the state board of control broke silence
for the first time and gave his first
statement yesterday as to conditions
in the girls industrial school al Mitch
ellville as he views them
MIR. Cownie asserts that the girl in
mates are tainted and ma gged about
their past careers. He further says that
a statement issued by Judge Robinson
and Senator Wade. announced yester-
day, does not state the fact in the
case.
''rhe people who have been writing
statements about the conditions at
,Mitchellyille do not know what they
are talking about" Mr. Cownie SAYS
There are other forms of cruelty
than corporal punishment" he contin-
ued. 1T is cruel, for instance. to throw
the mistakes of young people in their
faces instead OF giving them hope and
encouragement In my opinion, Off
GERS and others at the Industrial schools
who use corporal punishm emit are not

Institutions.

W do not believe in corporal punish

The trouble Is that at MttchellNilie,
as in many other places. there are a
lot of fine, noble women who are never
condone a lapse from virtue in their
own sex and who therefore are con-

never taunts the girls about their past

them. They fondly call her mother
and tease her as children will their
mother in their own home. They love
her because she is kind and good. There
would be no outbreaks il the girls are
| treated with kindness and considera-
ton.
These Mitchellville girls are not bad
at heart: they have made mistakes
and should be helped. not condemned,

TRAINMAN IDENTIFIES
STACY AS MAN WITH ROLL
In Turn Stacy Says He Saw Fielding
With Large Sum Of Money-Riersen's
Story About Miss Hoffman Giving
Him a Pin Diseredited by Police
Sold 1t For Sc.

Cedar Rapids, April 7.-Willian
Stacy, one Of the trio Of Rock Island
news agents arrested on suspicion of
having robbed the bodies of victims Of
the Green Mountain wreck, was posi-
lively identified yesterday by a Rock
him two diamond rings and a diamond
pin while enroute north on a train a
few days after the wreck. Stacy abb
solutely denies having had the jewelry,
and also says that the story he told
of having received $25>from a lady who
was injured in the wreck was a false
hood. The fireman states that Stacy
also had q large roll of money, more
than he would have made in many
months in the news agent business. ;
Stacy on the. other hand claims that
he saw Fielding have a large roll of
money shortly after the wreck, and
that some of the bills We're covered
with blood. The police are convinced
that all three of the news agents are
as accomplished a trio of prevaricators
as could be met in many days search,
and that if they would tell the truth
they, could make some startling revela-
tons. Neither the police nor the Rock
Island detectives have any faith in the
story of Rierson that the pin worn by
Miss Hoffman was given him by her
after. the wreck. Rierson, however,
describes the dying scene with Miss
Hoffman in a tragic manner. He says
that physician instructed him to
work the young lady's arms UP and
down to furnish artificial respiration.
He noticed that her collar was tight,
being held by the pin in question.
which he removed. He says he re-
moved the pin and placed it in her
hand and she gave it back to him with
instructions to keep it, as a remem-'
brance of her, a s she was dying. Rier-
son states that he kept it and told the
police q day or two after the wreck
when he showed it to them that he was
going to always keep it. But he
straightway went to Estherville on
his first trip and sold it for Sc.
Much of the mystery resulting from
the apparently conflicting statements
may possible be explained by the fact
that Miss Hoffman had on her person
at the time of her death two pins and
a necklace. all of which We're missing
when her body was identified. The pin
which it is now claimed the brakeman
has is a large buckle pin of handsome
design. The other pin was in the form
of a gold cross. The latter pin and the
necklace, Mrs. Scott has been informed,
were recovered and it is presumable
that they are in the hands Of the Cedar
Rapids officers.
Rierson is Released.
The authorities today ordered the re-
lease of Harry Rierson, one of the
train butchers" suspected of robbing
wreck victims. His release was due
to the failure of Miss Hoffman,s rela-
tives to identify the pin he sold at Es-
theryille
