Mrs. Clark,
Okolona, Miss.
Dear Madam
There are at present II white boys
in the State penitentiary under twenty
one. There are approximately rs
more on the farms and in the jails
Of the various counties, This takes
no account of others who, showing
wayward tendencies, will become
law-breakers unlesa something is
done for them.
AT meeting held at the State
Capital on Feb, 18th. The Missis-
sippi Juvenile Reformatory Associa-
ton was organized. It's object is to
get before the public information on
this subject, and to enter in a State
wide campaign for the purpose Of
securing the passage by the next leeis-
lature of a bill for the establishment
Of an institution for the correction,
education and moral training Of youth
full offenders. Prisons and peniten.
tiaries are no places for children who
have been guilty of petty violations oI

the law. Associations with hardened
criminals during the foundation years
Of life precludes the possi-
bility Of there is ever being
good citizens. The experience
Of neighboring states proves
that 80 per cent Of the wayward
youths can be saved to the State.
Our desire now is to form working
committee in each county which will
disseminate information through the
press and otherwise and who will ap-
proach prospective candidates for the
legislature and eEdeavor to interest
them in the cause, and at the same
time keep in touch with the central
committee in jackson. Literature and
advisory letters will be sent out from
time to time.
Will you help US in your County,
and give US names Of others in
terested? N
A prompt reyly is requested.
Respectfully,
MARY REDDING,
For the Committee.

AETNA HAS
FIRE LAST
EVENING

The fire whistle sounded shortly after
nine o'clock last night calling out the
Aetna volunteer fire companies to put
cut a fire in the soda dryer building
near the Wabash depot. 1t is thought
that friction in the machinery caused
the blaze. After twenty minutes work
the flames were quenched. No adjoin-
ing buildings were endangered
When the fire whistles sounded their
third series of blasts number Of new
employees ran towards Gary but the
permanent hands at the mills went to
the fire as if it were an every day oc-
currence. Finally when those who
were on the run saw that the women
in the town were not upset in the least
they returned and Joined the fire
brigade.
AS the first blasts were being sounded
an automobile from Gary was making
its way along the Fifth avenue road ex-
tension. When the automobilists saw
the flames and heard the whistles they
reversed their machine and put back 70
Gary at top notch speed
1t is estimated that the damage will
amount to about 5000 and is said to be
covered by insurance.

BROKEN VAL vE HURTS
CITY WATER SUPPLY
Hammond Left Without
Water Pressure Through
Accident at Station.

A broken valve in the interior of the
big pump at the pumping station left
the city without water pressure from
11:30 last night until o'clock this
morning. Enough water remained in
the mains for fire protection, provided
the steamers we're being used, and pro-
vided the fire would not have been a
serious one.
Had water been needed for a big
fire" said Joseph Kasper engineer at
the pumping station this morning, I'VE
would have had to start the pump in
the condition she was in and take a
chance on breaking more of the ma
chinery.
No parts of the new $4,000. 900 gallon
pump have arrived as yet, and it is
doubtful whether 1t can be set up now
and be in operation by the first of the
year. Once it is installed, lack of wat
er pressure like last night is promised
TO be eliminated, because then If one
OF the pumps is out of commission the
other can be started by cutting in
