But in that small space of time the Ufeboat and
Alan Law had parted company as definitely as
though one OF them had been levitated bodily to
the far side OF the earth.
IL could not have been more than a minute after
the accident before Barcus was guiding the boat
over what. going on his sense OF location and judg
ment OF distance. he could have sworn was the
precise spot where Alan had disappeared but with
out discovering a sign OF him.
And for the next twenty minutes he divided his
attention between attempts to soothe and reassure
the halfdistracted girl and efforts to educe reply
from Alan by stentorian hailing-with as little
success in the one as in the other.
"Alan!" he shrieked at the top OF his lungs
Alan Give hail to tell US you're safe!"
There was little pause: he was racknR his
brains for some more moving mode of appeal when
the answer came in another voice-in the voice OF
judith Urine. clear musical, effervescent with sar-
donic humor:
BE at peace, little one-bleat no more! Mr.
Law is with us-and safe-Oh. quite quite safe!"
In dumb CONSERVATION Barcus sought the coun-
tenance OF Rose. Her eyes. meeting his were
blank with despair He shook his head helplessly
and let his hands dangle idly between his knees
With no way on her. the liteboat drIfted with a
current OF unknown set and strength.

hands are tied, my wits helpless as my eyes

bare possibility that the reef she spoke OF may be

The girl wrung her hands. "But how could
Judith get there-and with her men-and ammuni-
ton?"
Don't ask me. Going on my experience with
the lady I'd be willing to bet that she was picked

So slowly the current bore the lifeboat toward
the beach, and so still the tide that Barcus never
appreciated they within touch OF any land

grating sound.
With cry Of incredulity he leaped to his feet

out her anchor and cable and carried them ashore

And as he rose from this last labor he was half

broke through the fog.
In less than five minutes the miraculous com

rolled the fog back like scroll and sent It spin

BARROW ON BOYS AND CRIME


In an address to the prisoners at
the penitentiary at Joliet the other
day Clarence barrow, the noted law
yer, probably the best-posted man in
the country on crime and criminals,
said:
Nov, first of all, most of the
crimes committed, like burglary and
robbery and murder, are committed
by boys, young people. Of course,
there may be second or third or
fourth offenses, but they begin with
boys. And they are boys OF a GER
tain class; boys who live in tene-
ment district; boys who are poor
boys; WHO HAVE NO PLAY
GROUND BUT THE STREET; boys
whose only place is on the railroad
track at night, where they learn to
steal coal because they need it, and
then go into a vacant building, and
finally into a building that isn't va
cant, and gradually learn crime, the
same as we learn to be lawyer, and,
of course, after they get started it is
easy. Almost all of them come from
this environment, and generally be-
gin as boys.
you can't tell anything about a
boy in the adolescent age. Take
boy from fifteen to twenty-five, when
his voice is changing and his beard
is growing, he begins to have feelings
and desires that he never dreamed of
before. He may lie, he may steal, he
may commit burglary that he is in
no way responsible for. You take
that boy and put him on farm and
he will get along all right: But put
him in a crowded city and he is apt to
take a certain course. 1 undertake
to say that. very few people are past
forty years old when they commit
their first burglary. 1 don't want to
say that there are no elderly people
here for burglary. There probably

chance to live and he won't be bur
glar 1t won't be necessary for him
to be burglar. He won't develop
that way. He will develop some other
way. What is the boy in the tene-
ment district to do. What other
activities or what other life can he
have? And the wise lawyers punish
the individual who commits the bur-
glary without ever trying to find out
the cause and cure the cause.
GAS l have often said before in
showing how wise we lawyers are, if
a doctor was called on to treat
patient with typhoid fever he would
look around and find out what kind
of water the patient had been drink
ing, or what kind of milk, to see
whether it was infected, and if it was
would clean out the well, so nobody
else would get it, But if lawyer
was called in to treat patient with
typhoid fever he would give the pa
tient sixty days in jail; he would think
he could cure typhoid fever by send
ing the sick man to Jail.
"And then, if he gets well in two
weeks, he would leave him there until
the sixty days were up; and if at the
end of sixty days he was still sick
he would let him out anyhow, be-
cause his time was up. Some time
we will begin to understand this ques-
ton. All the people in this world
worth while know now that the men
in Jail and out of jail are just alike
on an average"

BARTENDERS

There will be few bartenders in Den
yer tomorrow Sunday for they are
all going to Meta Grove in South Platte
canon. for their annual excursion and
picnic. They will be accompanied by
their wives and sweethearts and scores
of friends who always join this jolly
bunch. A special train will leave the
Union depot at a. M. The fun pro-
gram will begin as the train pulls out,
and be kept up until the return.
Brother Mics Heimerman will be gen.
eralssimo OF sports. and this is suffi-
cient to insure wholesome score card
and square deal to all participants,
even the fat men. Useful prizes will be
given in each contest and there won't be
any blanks.
Brother Ike Goldman of the Marquette
bar. one of No SIS most popular and ac-
tive members, will act as official referee
and timekeeper. In this line OF endeavor
he has great record.
Brother William Bandit has been added
to the picnic committee and his boosting
qualities have proven of great benefit.
1t has been announced by the commit
tee i'll charge that a fine of $40 will be
imposed upon any member of No. who
misbehaves on this auspicious occasion.
Therefore good boys. also good girls, will
be very much in evidence.

RETAIL CLERKS

One OF the hottest contested semi
annual elections ever held by Local
Retail Clerks Union No. resulted in
the choosing OF the following Officers:
President-H. r. Spriggs.
First Nice-W. Reamer
Second Nice-O. j. Timblin.
Secretary y-Treasurer-A. Seidler.
Delegates to the Trades Assembly
and other officers elected last Janu-
AIRY hold over for the entire year.
President Spriggs announced that
Memorial holiday. saturday, May 30,
more generally than ever before and
that larger number of retail stores
We're closed than on previous holidays.
The same rule will apply on the Fourth
of July. Decoration Day and the
Fourth. both coming on Saturday. this
observance of the agreement with the
clerks is all the more igra tifying and
shows that the merchants of Denver are
willing to forego one of their best sales
days to keep faith with their employees.
The union instructed that letter OF
thanks be sent the Trades and Labor
Assembly for its active cooperation
and work of committee i'll visiting mer-
chants in regard to closing on Decora-
tion Day.
More interest than has been mani
tested for some time is now being
shown by the clerks in their union, and
the meetings are we'll attended, with
the membership ON the increase.

PAINTERS.

They walked out and then walked
back again, did six union painters at the

about wages between the firm and the
men, which was soon adjusted after the
union painters showed they had the
spunk to quit. And now everything is
going along ,merrily once more.
Increased demand for union labels on
paint work has caused the Painters Dis

headquarters at Lafayette, Ind, for adj
