BOY BURGLAR

We often read of juvenile incorrig-

such undesirables in our own mldst.
Robberies of stores by boys, both
white and colored, are common &C.

laws concerning Juvenile offenders
and the pleas of parents or others TO
whom they are connected often
prove potent factors in enabling such
Youngsters to escape the penalties Of
their crimes.
Recently negro boy of this city
who had been sent to a state reform
school took French leave of the in

business was entered again last
night and several articles. including
box of cigars, had been CARRIE
