STEALS FOR DYING MOTHER,
THEN GIVES HIMSELF UP
After Gratifying Parents Wish With
Pilfered Funds, Youth Con-
fesses His Crime.


Philadelphia, Pa-To provide funds
to bring his dying mother from Mount
Alto tuberculosis sanitarium and
gratifying her oft-expressed wish to
meet death in the home of her sister
in this city. Granville Smith, "a years
old, a driver for a Market street de-
partment store, stole $24 from his
employers two weeks ago. With the
money Smith carried out his purpose
to remove his mother to Philadelphia
and then went to the home of Speci-
al Policeman Bennett OF the reserves
and surrendered himself saying that
his happiness could not be shaken
by imprisonment, which he expected
many days ago.
Smiths home is in the neighbor-
hood of Fifty-first street and Flor
ence avenue. His mothers illness in
creased the burden of responsibilities
borne upon his shoulders, and of late
he has been harassed by creditors
seeking payment of overdue bills.
Three weeks ago he received word
that there was no hope for his mo-
theirs recovery, and simultaneously
came a letter from her saying her on
ly desire was to die in this city
where she was born, played as a child
married and reared her son. Gran
vile Immediately decided to risk all
to crafty this dying request of the
mother whose teachings had instilled
in him an adherence of dishonesty
Unwavering ne went upon his trip
one morning and never returned.
Detectives couldn't locate him.
His mother is now waiting for death
in the place where she wants to die.
In the night court at city hall Magis-
trate Mcfarland, to whom Smith ad-
mitted his guilt, offering no excuse,
held the young man in 5000 bail for
court.

UPHOLDS LIFE GUARDS|
Always Have Taken Pay for
Lessons at Beach, Says
Founder.

Apropos of the discussion as to whether
life guards at the municipal bathing beach
have the right to give swimming lessons
at the beach for pay, if the instruction is
given outside of the regular bathing
hours, w. X. Stevens, founder of the
beach and for almost eighteen years its
superintendent. said today that life guards
always had given private lessons and that
the question of the legality of the prac-
tice had never been raised before.
The District Commissioners have re-
ferred the matter to the corporation
is whether the beach may be used as the
place of instruction, the right of the
guards to give lessons elsewhere Is not
Questioned. The decision of the corpora
ton counsel will he ready in a few days.
During all the years that | was con-
nected with the municipal beach, said
Mr.. Stevens, the guards gave private
lessons for pay. and many patrons or
the beach requested the instruction.
There was no secrecy about the work.
and | was glad to see the guards have
an opportunity to make extra money, as
they could do it and at the same time
do all of the other work required of
them.
LAS il happens, / never gave any
private lessons myself but often re-
ferred patrons of the beach desiring spe-
cial instruction to one of my assistants
wa, an excellent instructor and had d
reputation as a teacher. His services
were in demand At the same time he
met all of his duties. and l encouraged
him in his outside work"
The first appropriation for the beach
by Congress was made in 1891, and from
that time until 1908 Mr.. Stevens was
the superintendent.
