LAWIEss YOUTHS.

A fearful boy bandit greeted his
sisters yesterday in the jail at Upper
marlboro, Md. John Morgan is no
longer the brave desperate that strobe
into the Citizens National Bank at
Laurel week ago. He is only IL, and
he wept bitterly when his sisters told
him of their efforts to keep the news
of his arrest from their aged father,
who is in critical condition in Cali
fornia. He is ready to make any
promises to the states attorneys to OBJ
tain release. The number OF des.
perados is increasing in this country
Some people suppose moving pictures
which represent imaginary deeds on
the part OF striplings, together with
tlimsy literature which portrays inn
possible juvenile exploits are feeding
the passion of lawlessness manifested
by many young people. Years ago
the authorities OF London barred Jack
Shepherd from the stage on the
ground that it corrupted the morals OF
The younger generation. Mischie1ous-
ness, however, seems Unborn in some
boys, and they rapidly develop. A
smooth face youth stood before the bar
of the Police Court OF this city yester-
day morning to answer the charge OF
entering a store and robbing the till
of over twenty dollars. He had pre-
viously attempted to get spurious
checks cashed, according to the evil
dence. The accused was formerly a
resident OF this city. The robbery,
flight and subsequent capture OF the
youth we're dramatic, and showed the
youngster had rehesrsed the act before
carrying it out. He was sentenced to
serve two months in Jail. Whether his
confinement will bring repentance and
reformation remains to be seen.

MRS. sCHENk REVIEWS BOND
amendment.

The docket in the Criminal Court at
Wheeling, w. Va, will be called today
and among those who must appear in
court will be Mrs. Laura FarnsWorth
Schenk, indicted for attempted murder
OF her wealthy husband, John O..
Schenk, by arsenical poisoning, the
jury in whose first trial disagreed. Mrs.
Schenk must appear to renew her per-
sonal bond for $4,000. Her counsel
say they are ready for trial at any time
but although Prosecutor Handlan still
insists there will be second trial of the
celebrated case, it is the general opin-
ion Mrs. Schenk will never be tried
again. The taking of testimony in
Schenk S divorce suit against his wife
is as yet far from complete, and it is
believed second trial hinges on the re-
suit OF this case. Schenk, it is said, is
devoted to Miss Evans, the nurse who
tenderly cared for him during his i'll
ness, and the local public is expecting
the marriage OF Schenk and Miss Evans
if the divorce is granted.

WANTS WIFE TO RETURN.

The elopement OF Mrs. Walter Lis.
penard Suydam. wife of young mil
]ionaire of Blue Point, Long Island, is
the subject of general conversation at
that place at present. Her companion
in flight is cook, son of a plumber.
Suydain is anxious for his wife to re-
turn and keeps light burning in the
window for her. 1t seems that Suydam
is a disciple OF Isaac Walton and
spends most Of his nights fishing. His
wife finally grew tired OF being loft
alone and formed an attachment for
the cook. This incident should be a
hint to men who marry and spend most
of their time away from home, especial
j. their nights.

BISHOP WNERlE MERE 18TH
SPEAKS IN THIS CITY

Last Saturday evening Bishop Wherle
met With the Sisters hospital COM
mittee and went over the finances in
c connection with the construction OF the
new building. 1t seems that the Sisters
order in Ohio is reluctant to finance
the deal and some additional support OF
guarantee is needed on the stsrt. People
who live in Western North Dakota, rea-
lie that there is a field here for a
Sisters hospital and that it will receive
very general patronage as soon as
opened.
Such an institution is of the greatest
Importance to Dickinson and this sec
ton Of the country and everybody should
take a deep interest in the project.
Bishop Wherle wants to speak to the
people on the matter, explaining his
plans for financing the building. and
has set as the date, Friday evening,
May 18th.
Bishop Wherle is an exceedingly busy
man and it is a great problem for him
to find time for all of his important
matters. but he has pledged himself to
see that the Sisters hospital project is
properly financed. Now let the citizens
turn out and show their interest in the
matter.
Contractor Thomas Powers is already
at work on the hospital structure.

The move ment bore the earmarSs of short sell ing Efforts to advance the market 1 having failed, speculative venture on the short side was attempted, and it was found to be easier to force prices down than to put them up.

Lehigh Valley was the only one of the leaders to move far in the fore part Of the day but it's gain of nearly two points was lost in the afternoon decline.

MORRIS BADLY PUNISHES KENNEDY

New York. Decs 27.-CarI Morris. the Oklahoma engineer, outfought Tom Kennedy, the New York heavyweight. in eight rounds of d ten round bout st the Empire Athletic club tonight. In the general opinion of those at the iingside, neither of the white hopes" showed any advancement toward their aspirations of some day wrestling the worlds championship from Jack John son. Tho Oklahoma man, who weighed 22S pounds to kennedy's 215, was con sidered too slow, and Kennedys much praised footwork proved disappoint- ment.
 The New Yorker showed great game Tess in taking the punishment which the former locomotive driver gave him. He had so much the worst. of it in the latter rounds that many of the spec tators shouted to Referee Dan Tome to stop the bout, but he declined to in terfere-
 The only damage Morris showed at the finish was puffed lips, whereas Kennedy was bleeding profusely at the nose and was otherwise battered.
