The Oskaloosa herald. (Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa) 1885-1919, 1913-01-23
IN THE DISTRICT COURT
Disposition of Various Matters by
Judge and Jury.

Three boys, Glenn Gravitt, Robert
Wilson and Wilbur Evans were up
before Judge Willcockson in juvenile
court Friday. Last Saturday the boys
broke into the Arsenal on Company
rs rifle range north of the city and
stole a quantity of loaded cartridges.
Then they amused themselves ON the
way back to town by placing them on
the rails of the NJ & st. l.. tracks
This caused the railroad people quite
"a bit of trougle and they started to
looking into the matter. They found
the boys, and when captured they
still had number of the cartridges.
Information was filed against them in
Justice Bacon's court and they were
bound over to the juvenile court. 1t
appears that Evans was the ring lead
er in the bunch and consequently he
was sentenced to the reform school,
while the other two boys were let go
on probation. If anything more of like
nature happens they will also be sent.
