BOTTLE OF BOOZE
FOUND BY BOY
BEING SAMPLED TO EXCESS
LIKE TO HAVE RESULTED
IN THE LITTLE FELLOWS
DEATH.

A lamentable story is related by
Willard Alden, of the finding of an
intoxicated boy last Sunday after
noon while out with his wife for a
walk. Mr.. Alden says that while
Mrs. Alden and himself were look
ing at the river from the wagon
road bridge near the FIGURING mills;
they saw several small boys, who
appeared to be trying to rescue a
little fellow from the river. Upon
hurrying to their assistance, Mr..
find that the boy, who appeared to
be about IL years old, had not
been rescued from drowning, but
was apparently under the influence
of some intoxicant or drug, from
the effects OF which he was not
only in a deplorable, but decidedly
critical condition, one that seemed
to demand the immediate attention
OF a physician The four compan-
ions of the boy, whose ages seem
ed to range from about s t IL
years, had been trying to revive or
sober the little fellow and had
plunged him in the water and
him about until he was IN
a sorry condition. Mr. Alden carried
the boy to the home of Mrs. |
Scantlin, near the west end Of the
bridge, where a physician was sum-
noned to care for him.
The unfortunate boy who had
probably never tasted intoxicating
liquor before, claims to have found
|. bottle of whiskey IN a stable,
where it had been hidden, and to
lave drunk large quantity OF the
ituff, to see what effect 1t would
ave upon him. He Is the son OF
Hrs. Jordan, a widow. The matter
S under investigation.
The moral OF such a story could
lot easily be enlarged upon; 1t IS
ufficient to say that every citizen,
.nless it is one who has not been
,enefited by civilization, will feel
he humiliation Of knowing that
uch an occurrence could have
cen made possible in this COM
1unity by the wanton act OF some
iolatcr Of the law. I

Sheriff Froman, of Canyon county.
and in the afternoon of that day,
the two men were arraigned in the

but, in consideration of the fact that
Young Baird had returned to this
city of his own volition and made
a full confession of his part in the
affair, County Attorney Griffith
changed the complaint as to him,
to that Of having contributed to
~ delinquency of minor children"
aN upon entering a plea of guilty
to the complaint, he was fined 500
and costs, upon the payment Of
which he was released from custody.
Jones was not so fortunate, being
arraigned upon the more serious
charge of having committed grand
larceny. Upon waving a preliminary
hearing, his bonds were fixed In
the sum of $4,000, which he was
unable to furnish and was committed
to the county jail to await the next
term of the District court.
Attorneys Norris & Hummer ap-
peared for Baird, while Attorney NJ.
G. Riebling represented Jones.
At the conclusion of the hearings,
the two young women in the case
were taken by the officers to Cald-
we'll, to be sent from there to the
State Reform School. But little is
known of either of them here. Their
names are said to be Pearl Baldwin,
aged Is years, and Frances Lucas,
aged 16, who is said to be the grand
daughter of well-respected old
couple residing near this city. For
some time previous to their escapade
with Jones and Baird, they are said
to have been leading reckless lives
here and elsewhere.

BUILDING PROSPECTS
APPEAR excellent
MANY SALES THIS SEASON OF
SINGLE LOTS TO PEOPLE WHO
PLAN TO HAVE HOUSES
BUILT THE COMING SUMNER.

The indications are that Daytona
will experience good summer in the
building line which will benefit all
business to a greater or less degree.
This belief is based on the fact
that many of the sales Of real estate
made thus far this season are of un-
improved property and in most cases
single lots purchased by people who
expect to have residences erected
ready for occupancy next winter.
There has been less speculation in
property this year than last season
when several auction sales of lots
we're held and lots were purchased in
blocks of half dozen or a dozen to
be held for higher prices.
Already lots enough have changed
hands to promise well for the build
ing business the coming summer, and
March, the month of the greatest
number of sales, is still ahead.
