AN OLO PRACTICE
 ID BE BROKEN UP
The Moline Case Has Emphasized
 the Necessity for 1t

Charlotte Moline, the twelve year old girl who was committed to the reform school on the discovery of her relations with Rodolfo Athon. was taken to Benson last night. This case will mark a turning point in the man ner of dealing with cases of this kind. For several years there has been a class of young Mexicans who have made cOnquests of this kind and have seemed to feel proud of them after they had got out of their trOu- ble, usually by marrying their victims and then deserting them.
 The girl said that that was what had been planned by Athon in this case. He had told her that if they got caught she should swear that she was fourteen years old, they would get married. then separate and that would be the end of it.
 J w. Canning has taken a lively interest in this affair and he has been backed by an organization known as the Mexican Probation club whose purpose is to prevent occurrences of incidents of this sort. There is a strong determination to send Athon to the penitentiary and he will undOubt- edly go there for he has already ad- mitted the truth of all that has been charged against him.
 It is also understood that under the present judicial regime there will be no more marriages of convenience and that when it is necessary to send a young girl to the reform school in cases like this a young man will be sent to Florence

BRISTOL, Va, July 31.-Col. John 8.

Colonel Mosby lived In Bristol and

young girl and she told the young re-
cruit that If he should distinguish him
self In the army that upon his return
she would give him a kiss.
After the war he did not return to
Bristol. This week he met Mrs. Car

the war and reminded her of the prom
ise. She remembered II, too.
He Came Too Late.
