MOOSE RENDERS OPINION.

Little Rock, March 27.-Attorney General w. l.. Moose Tuesday after noon rendered an opinion which will cause woe among the lawless bands of boys which have wandered about Ar Kansas cities pilaging at will. Little Rock has long been infested by such troop of young highwaymen and petty thieves, but the courts were un- able to throw enough scare into the culprits to drive them into the straight and narrow path. The youths were too young for the penitentiarv and there was considerable doubt as to whether or not the county courts could send the boys to the reform school. Driven to despair, County Judge Joe Asher appealed to Attor- ney General Moose for an opinion on the matter and was informed that the county court can commit the offending boys to the reform school for as long a term as it sees fit. Judge Asher will now proceed against the boys in keeping with the opinion.
