TEN YOUNG BOYS
LAND IN COURT.

On Tuesday afternoon ten boys rang
ing in ages from ten to fifteen years were
brought before the district attorney OH
the charge of taking fruit from the
orchards and gardens of the
great northern nursery owned by M.
+. Foley. For some time depradations
have been going on and the climax
came when a lot of melons and fruit
were taken. One fine greening tree
was ruined by the boys breaking it
down. Mr.. Foley had instructed his
foreman, Joe Baxter to give the boys
all the apples they want to eat but
this did not satisfy them and they
decided to help themselves. 1t was
found that two of the boys went to
bed as usual, then got up unknown TO
their mothers and stayed away until
5 O'Clock in the morning. That is when
the melons were taken. They had a
cabin near Mound street and strange
as it may seem, it is said some of the
parents protected the boys in their
evil hiding place. There they played
cards and drank liquor. In court one
of the boys admitted that he had been
drunk three times and this astonished
some of the mothers when they found
out the true situation. The very bad
affair ended by the boys being let out
on parole. 1t was found that if one
were sent to the reform school, all
must 60. Under the circumstances it
was thought best to give the boys an
other chance. Mr.. Foley has been
kind enough to do this in the past and
and the result has been good. All
these boys need to do in the future is
to let property belonging to other
people alone. 1t was severe lesson
but is one the boys should remember
as long as they live. The fact that they
were arrested will always be a black
mark against them but they are fortu-
nate to escape as easily as they did.

HOPE DESTROYER"
Who LOOKS GODD

Another "white hope destroyer"
looms up on the pugilistic horizon.
He is Art Nelson of Wyeville, Wis. a
woodchopper in that section of the
country. In stature he is almost a
giant, standing feet and IL inches in
his stocking feet. He is built like a
Frank Gotch, but weighs only 1870
pounds. Charlie Lavine discovered
the youngster, he being but twenty
two years of age, when Lavine took
Jumbo Wells up to Bangor, Wis, as
Arts opponent. Wells looked like a
pretty good hope at that time and was
in grand condition when the pair
spared off in the opening round. AL
most from the tap of the gong it could
be seen that Nelson was some hope,
and after hammering Wells almost out
of shape he crossed right over in the
sixth round that he spelled knock
out.
He was matched to go against John
w AllAOj OoO OnCAAA hdiu Vic ~.
Nelson has had some ten fights in the
Wisconsin towns, Frank Ryan and
and Jack Parres being some of the
men who felt the sting of his punches.
He put Ryan away in six rounds and
beat him so badly that Frank changed
his fighting name to Frank Kline
Nelson is all muscle and bone, but I'm
like many of the hopes, his muscle is
useful in that he is not muscle bound.
And he knows how to use his mitts
both in giving the wallop and warding
it off. He has good foot action and
for big fellow steps around
rather lively. He is d straight puncher
aud doesn't waste many.
Lavine is anxious to get Ned Car
penter, the Burlington hope, in the
ring and will secure CLUB for the pair
if Carpenter will consent to match.
A few more fights and Lavine will
send him against men of Palzer's
class. 1t is his managers intention to
bring him here and get some of the
middleweights to give him workouts

Fads in Food.

A man who has won considerable pub
licitv as a faddist in food theories was
taken to hospital the other day in a
serious condition as a result of his method
of living
The man had announced that 26 cents
a week was enough for a person to spend
on food. He set out o prove it by sub
sisting on limited rations of oatmeal
crackers. The doctors now declare that
he brought himself to the verge of death
from starvation by this mode of living
Other faddists in the East recently
claimed fasting cure for all sorts of dis
eases. They would substitute fasting for
the surgeons knife and the operating
table. Usually the faddist proved to be
man with a temperament" He also
knew the art of the press agent At the
close of a lengthy interview to the news
papers on how cancer or some equally
malignant disease could be cured by fhst-
ing, the man advertised new novel or
play which he was just finishing.
Once these faddists got into the news
papers and advertised themselves thor.
oughly they suddenly dropped out of the
public eve. Among the nearest friends
it was known that they had returned to
the old-fashioned idea of three square
meals a day.-ChicagO Tribune.

Mt. St. Marv,s Schedule.

Manager John Mccormick, Of Mount
St. Marys football team, gave out his
schedule tor the season at a meeting OF
the Athletic Association recently
The list contains eight games. Begin
ming with the Georgetown contest Satur-
day, game will be played every week
with the exception OF the week ending
October 20
Manager Mccormick had been planning
for a game with Dickinson for that date
at Carlisle, but had to give up the idea.
as that is the week set aside by the COL
lege council for spiritual exercises. For
the last three days all classes and athletic
work has been suspended, and as that
was the only date left open. the Noun
taineers will have to forego the pleasure
of meeting Dickinson this year.
After an absence of many years Get
tysburg who was always a rival in the
old davs, appears on the schedule. The
usual date, Thanksgiving Day, is again
turned over TO the Catholic University at
Washington. From past experiences this
game seems a fixture for future years.
All attention has been devoted this
week to getting the team in shape for
Georgetown, Saturday. The strength of
Georgetown is well known and the COM
parlson in weight is very much in favor of
the Wasl ington contingent. The heavy
rains OF last week delayed the progress
OF the squad to a great extent. The first
scrimmage Of the year took place Monday
and the work seemed to be satisfactory
TO Coach Thompson. II is rather hard 10
tell Just how good the otfense will be, as
the second team is rather light and the
backtield men on the first team had little
trouble in penetrating the line. Scrim-
images took place every day until today.

Schley Property Sold.

The sale of the property of Mrs. Steiner
Schley on West Church street. has been
ratified and the deed executed to Messrs
David Lowenstein and Charles Vert
heimer.
Negotiations for the sale of this prop
erty have been in progress since last

court of equity as Mr. John r. Schley is
a minor and was unable to sign deed.
The court held that the offer of 50. 500
was fair one and appointed Mr.. c. O.
Keedv trustee. TO ratify the sale and exc
cute the deed. Stoner & Weinberg rep
resented Lowenstein & Wertheimer in
the negotiations OF the sale.
The property will be completely remod-
eled by the purchasers. The first floor
will be used for offices, while the second
and third floors will be used for flats.

Railroad Facilities Must Expand

The pressure of traffic upon the iacil-
tiles OF the railroads for handling it is
condition in the business world which
tends steadily from bad to worse.
Everything points 10 much congestion
of freight and general complaints of in
adequate equipment on the larger rail-
road systems OF the country.
All of which means that there will
have to be more liberal provision for
the growth OF the business which natu-
rally falls to the American railways The
railroad companies must have more cars.
more locomotives and more sdings, and
more room for handling freight. Which
means, in turn, that thew must put more
money-a great deal more-into their
equipment.
The country will have to reckon with
this condition. AS the Leader has said,
there will have to be more provision for
railroad growth and this necessity will
have to he taken fully into account BY
the public authorities in dealing with
railroad revenues and expenditures. The
country will never relinquish any of the
ground that it has gained in the regula-
ton of the great common carriers, but
it will certainly not be unwiSe enough to
prevent them from providing amply for
the natural and necessary expansion of
the traffic which measures the general
progress of the nation. Cleveland
