Johnny Wick and Joseph Boyle, two
white boys charged with the offense
of grand larceny.
A Daily News reporter who inter
viewed Mr.. Smith, learned of the cap
ture of John Robinson, a negro muir
derer for whom Volusia county Off
cials had been searching for several
years. and who was arrested by the
sheriff, at Winter Garden, last Mon
day night.
The crime for which Robinson was
sought is alleged to have been pc
culiarly atrocious one. One night in
1911, about four years ago, so the
story goes, an Orange City negro
named Charlie Bell was called from
his house and shot down in cold
blood. Bell died and Robinson, about
whose being guilty Of the murder
there seems 10 bc little doubt, Aed
He was heard from several times dur
ing the long period he remained at
large, but until this week all efforts
to capture him were fruitless.
Robinson was placed in Jail at the
county site, and probably will be tried
for murder at April term of circuit
court.

PLAN TO REGULATE
WIDOWS PENSIONS
HAMILTON COUNTY ATTORNEY
SAYS RELATIVES ARE sH'Rk-
ING DUTY.

Webster City, July County At
torney j. E. Burnstedt of this city Is
going to call halt on the granting OF
Widows pensions so freely hereafter,
Records in the office Of County Auditor
A. J. Peterson show that Hamilton
county pays out annually in widows
pensions the sum Of $4,000. 1t is charg
ed by the county attorney that gooa
many pensions are needless and that
they have come about through the fali-
ure Of relatives to do their part.
The new law under which pensions
are now granted gives certain sum;
fixed by the judge, to the widow ana
additional amounts for every depend
ent child. The theory of the law is an
excellent one and is intended syste-
matically to relieve suffering among
families left without any support
through the death Of husband and rain :
er. It is said, however, that the Tree
horse is being ridden to death, ana a
stop is to be put to it in this county.
From the attorneys present at the
annual meeting Of the Iowa State Bar
association in Fort Dodge, 1t was
learned that similar condition prevails
in ma jority Of Iowa counties.
