BOY BANDITS"
ALL DOING WELL
Judge TulIy Has Meeting
with Three of Quartette
Who Staged Raid.
HAVE CLEAR RECORD

Kenosha was much in evidence in the
probation court of Judge John W.
Houston in Chicago, on Wednesday
when Sam Albin, Albert Boris, Irv-
ing Schreiburg and Abe Silver, the
four Chicago men who sauntered into
Kenosha last January and held up the
gambling house on Main street, came
in to make report of their probation.
Judge TuIly of the municipal court
here was the guest of Judge Houston
for the day and when the boys who
had been placed on parole in the court
here, came in it was the first time that
any of them had been seen by Judge
Tully since the morning he had given
them chance.
Albin did not come into court, but
his father, Samuel Albin, was on
hand to make the report for his son.
He stated that the son was in the
Alexian Brothers hospital where he
had recently undergone four opera
tions. 1t was said that he is now re-
covering from the effects Of the opera
tion. The father vouched for the fact
that the son had kept every provision
of his parole.
All of the Members in Business.
Albert Boris was in court to an
nounce that he is now the manager of
a theatre and that he was doing good
business and walking the straight path
all the time. Irving Schreiberg re-
ported that he is now associated
with his father in the commission
business and Abe Silver, the driver of
the automobile which brought the boys
to Kenosha on the night of the rob-
berry, is in the truck business. Mrs.
Silver and baby Silver were in court
to testify to the fact that Silver was
living up to his promises to the judge
Of the Kenosha court.
Spends Two Hours With Men.
Judge Tully spent more than two
hours with the three men hearing their
story. 1t was the first time that he
had personally received a report from
them since they had been placed on
parole for a term of seven years.
~ was well satisfied with the way
these boys are getting along,o said
the judge this morning. "They are
all, with the exception of Albin, work
ing every day and / have the assurance
that they are living up to the agree
ment they made with the court at the
time they were released. | had occa-
sion to look into the records of the
boys in Chicago and found that they
had no serious police records. 1t was
a great two hours for me, as / had a
chance to get an excellent idea of the
splendid workings of the probation law
among Chicago people. Judge Gemmel
was at one time quoted in Kenosha as
being unfavorable to the probation
law, but in making an examination Of
the records found that he had ex-
tended probation to seven hundred and
fifty adults during the last year."
Kenosha Wards Report Promptly.
Judge Tully said that his investiga-
tions had shown that the men under
parole from his court had been making
regular and prompt reports to the pro-
baton officers in Chicago and that
these reports had been most satisfac-
tory. None Of the men have been in
Kenosha since the day of their parole.
The father of Albin was much dis
turbed over report which had been
published in Kenosha to the effect that
his son had been arrested on several
charges in Chicago. 1t was declared
that AIhin had been aIrastad br+ onca
before he was arrested in the Kenosha
case and thats this one arrest had been
for violation of the speed regulations
for automobiles. Albin said that the
record Of his son had been confused
with the record of cousin.
