GIVEN HEARING,
WAS CRITICISED FOR HIS
LACK OF JUDGMENT
Claimed That His Treatment
Of Boy At Waseca Was
UncaIIed For 80

Waseca, Mimi, December 2.-Judge
F. w. Sem conducted a hearing in
the case Of Probation OFFICER Elof-
son OF the Redwing Training school.
About a month ago Mr. Elofson
came here to take young boy to the
Redwing Training school. He went to
the boys home and grossly misrep-
resented matters to the mother. later
met tho boy short distance from
the home, took him into custody, re-
fused to let him see his parents. took
him to the depot, where he placed
handouts upon him. and paraded him
about In an entirely unnecessary
manner. People who witnessed the
way this man treated the boy were
very indignant.
When the members Of the child
welfare board and r. w. Sem, the
Judge Of the juvenile court, heard of
what bad taken place, they caused
a complaint to be fled with the state
board of control and with the super
intendent Of the Redwing Training
school, Mr.. Fulton.
Hearing Was Held.
Superintendent Fulton brought Ell
olson and the boy here for the hear
ing yesterday. The charges made
against Officer Elofson were fully
substantiated by the inquiry and he
was given severe reprimand by Su-
pertntendent Fulton, who said he
showed aud for the steps he took to
away. The school does not want any
such treatment given to boys who are
sent to 1t. Superintendent Futon
to be commended for the interest he
showed and for he steps he took to
get to the bottom of the matter.
The result of the inquiry will be
laid before the board of control for
further action II 1t sees at to take
any.

Georges Carpenter Walked With The
Man Who Hammered Him.

who twelve years ago gave him one
OF the hardest hammerings he ever
got in the ring. The two walked arm
In arm across the paddock and every
one laughed for the one time van.
Quisher reaches only to the shoulder
OF the European champion. The fight
dates back to the days when boxing
was practiced in France only among
English and American lads in racing
stables and Carpenter himself was a
nipper Of fourteen in his native min
ing town OF Lens. An English trainer
offered a purse of $50 to promote a
fight between the champion of his
stable, a youth named Salmon, and
whoever wished to fight him. Carpen-
tier heard Of the offer and came to the
ring. At the end of the eighteenth
round Carpenters second carried
him out protesting and weeping be-
cause he couldn't see to fight any
more. Salmon pocketed $50 but re-
tired from the ring to become a sue
ceSsful Jockey.
