being fined for SO for intoxication at
tracted attention Of persons interested

said that crusade against bootIegying
may develop. The boy whose name is
Carl Watson. confessed the charge
when arraigned in police court. but
steadily refused to tell the police where
ne obtained the liquor
John Dixon. also II years old was
sentenced to six months in the county
jail on a charge Of attempted house
breaking and his mother told the
court that she was certain the boy and
his companion were trying to enter
the house for the purpose of stealing
whisky. She said the boy came home
intoxicated one night recently and ad-
mitted whisky had been given him by
woman, who long has been under
police suspicion.
County Attorney Lockwood pleaded
with the court to give Dixon and Alex
ander. his companion. a sentence in
the Anamosa reformatory. Mr., Lock-
wood said he believed the boys would
be better of in the clean prison than
IN the Linn county Jail which he pro-
nounced the worst in the state. The
court however. took the position that
the boys could live down the odiun,
of Jail sentence, but a penltenrisrv
| sentence would be remembered bv
