Three Youngsters Picked
Up By Police Charged
With Stealing Horse of
Street Commissioner.
ALSO HELD AS BURGLARS
Boys Took Horse and Went Away Rids
ing and Abandoned It On Farm Road
In Pleasant Prairie-Admit Stray.
ing From Marrow Path.

Three little blonde headed BOYS, the
oldest of them twelve were waiting All
the police Office this morning to be ar
ralgned on the serious charge of being
horse thieves. !" They even admitted
that all the police alleged against them
was true and they went farther and
added burglary to the charges by adj
uniting that they had been guilty of
pity thieving from stores in the city.
The boys were John Juricko, 10 wears
old. Charles Shatkiss, IL years old and
Chester Lojewske eight years old.
They appeared to be more interested
in than frightened by the fact that
they were in the clutches of the law.
Last Monday afternoon while Street
+ Commissioner Hall was busy trying to
swing the Main street bridge. he left
his horse tied to a pest near the bridge.
de was so busy IN his attempts to GET
action on the part of the bridge that
he forgot all about the horse when
ne went looking 1or it later u had dis
appeared. Some hours later it was
found along farm road some three
miles west Of the city and returned ia
Commissioner Hall. The boys after
they had been taken into custody ad.
mitted that they had taken the horse,
They declared that they did not make
any effort to sell it and all that they
wanted was to take a ride. Later
II
they admitted that they had taken some
small articles from one of the "ten
cent? stores and from the Pfennia
grocery.
Now what are you going to do with
the likes of 'em y was the comment of
Chief O'Hare as he looked over the
youngsters charged with one of the most
serious offenses under the law. 1sIt
would be crime to put them in Jail
and yet the people demand that an end
be put to this petty thievery. If
could just get the parents of such bows
to keep better track of them and inn
press upon these people that it is nee
essary to know where the boys are, L
believe that we would find the best
solution of this kind of trouble.V
It was forecasted that the three
youngsters would be turned over to the
probation officer. The records of the
court failed to show that any of them
had been in any kind of similar trou.

Three Men and Two Women
Who Were Out Riding In
Auto Without License
Nabbed BY Deputies.
MUST SHOW OWNERSHIP
Deputies Frazier and Robinson Pick
UP Party On the Geneva Road and
They Are Held Regardless Of Pro-
tests Made To the Officers.

Three young men and two young
women who claimed to be from Keno
sha were arrested just before one
0 clock this morning by Deputies Fra
zier and Steve Robinson and they spent
the night at the county jail waiting for
the officers to seek some further light
on the ownership Of the Ford automo-
bile in which they had been riding.
1t was merry little party when it
was stopped by the deputies and al
though the men protested that they
had legal right to the automobile
cuses for being away from home so
late in the evening, the hard hearted
deputies brought the members of the
party right along to Kenosha and put
them in the county jail for the even
ing. The young men all gave Kenosha
addresses, but their names were not
made public. The young ladies names
were not given out and charges Of vio-
lation of the curfew law were the only
thing against them. They protested
ties, holding that they were not violat-
Ing any laws and that they had been on
an innocent ride out in to the country.
The men or one Of them will be
charged with operating the automobile
without license.
When the automobile was stopped
Deputies Frazier and Robinson were
riding the road in an effort to get
some trace Of an Overland automobile
which had been stolen from Waukegan
just after eight clock Tuesday night.
The report sent to the sheriff here de-
clared that the men who stole the au-
tomobile had been driven toward Ke-
nosha and Frazier and Robinson both
went out just before ten o clock. They
had stopped every automobile on the
Sheridan Road from that time until
midnight and then they decided to
make the circuit Of the Geneva Road.
The first car they met was the Ford
auto driven by the Kenoshan. 1t had
no license number on it, but he in
sisted that application for the license
had been made to the state department
and he showed q receipt to the officers
for the application.
The Kenoshan insisted that the auto
mobile was the property Of his mother
and that he was driving it with her
permission. His story had the imme-
date sanction of the other members
of the party, but Frazier held that the
automobile was being operated without
license and that any way the people
in the party were pretty young to be
out at that time of night and he
brought them to Kenosha.
The case was brought to an end late
this afternoon when the driver of the
automobile paid fine of five dollars
and costs for operating his automobile
without license and one of the girls
paid fine of one dollar and costs for
violation of the curfew ordinance.
Both girls were turned over to the
probation officer for supervision.

FLIES TO SPOKANE
BIG BUSINESS IN AIR
DONE AT COLVILLE SHOW

Difficulty in landing was expert
enced by Lieutenants Symons and
Russell in a drop from the clouds
to Parkwater in their biplane last
Saturday night, on their return from
Colville to Spokane. The earth was
distinguishable in the dark, but
whether the distance was 80 or 500
feet they could not determine and
upon determination depended safety
in landing. The problem was solved
by familiar white house which in
dicated the situation of the field and
by a line of telegraph poles which
indicated the distance to the ground.
The line of poles was followed until
the ship was aligned with their tops
when the final swoop to earth and
safety was made. The ship left
COlville at 6:15 p. m, Immediately
after the discharge of a passenger,
and reached Spokane, 80 miles dis
