they were joined by the following
girls and Boys: Misses Vera Smith,
Elizabeth McElveen and Messrs Her

Ealph McElveen, Ehrlich Wallace and

:way several pleasant hours.
About sun-down the crowd was
summoned to assemble at cozy spot
where a delightful picnic lunch con-
s;sting of sandwiches, cake and horae
made candy were served. This hav-
ing been prepared by two of the
girls, was an agreeable surprise to
the others.
On the homeward ride the happi-
ness of the crowd was expressed by
the singing of favorite songs. Arriv-
irg home about seven o'clock, these
young folks found many more of
their friends awaiting them.
Together they enjoyed a play-party
until eleven o'clock when each one
reluctantly departed for his or her
home. .-.r :"

time is the enjoyment it afforded
"Court Crier" D. H. Smith, Miss Thel-
mas father, who has expressed him
self as having hid the best time of
bis life.

Good Returns for Potatoes.

County Agent Cathcart reports to
Us that during the week a car Of
banked sweet potatoes WIS shipped
from Gourdin to Richmond, Va.
through the South Carolina Sweet
Potato Association for Messrs ]. P,
Gamble, w. M. O'Bryan and S. A
Cranam. The lot was composed of 322
cne hundred pound sacks and netted
the shippers s40s.96, or an average OF
rs cents the bushel. It will be un-
Gerstood that the price paid for bank
ed potatoes is not as good as is COM
manded by cured potatoes.

How shall 9-year-old Robert Silvers
be punished for fatally stabbtng his
plamate, Bernard letter, ., at Port
land, in controversy over baseball
game?
This question today confronted Gov
ernor McCray, Attorney General L. s.
Iesh and numerous other State officials.
The Sllvers lad was sentenced to the
Bows Reform school at Plainiield TO re
main until he becomes q years OF age,
but an act recently passed by the Legis-
laturc preclEdes boys under the age or
10 being sent to the reform school. He
cannot be sent to any Of Indianas S other
penal institutions, State officials claim,
and fnasmuch as 1t has not been shown
that the lad Is not of sound mind he
cannot be sent to any of the institutions
for the feeble minded.
The Governor has the power, accord
ing to Attorney General Iesh, to order
prisoners rightfully committed to one
institution TO he changed to another un-
der certain circumstances. but there are
no provisions which apparently cover the
present case of one wrongfully SEN
tenced to an institution.
The fatal stabhing of the Teeters youth
has caused feeling to run high In Jay
County according 10 reports received st
the Statehouse. and In case the lad was
given freedom, doubt Of his safety was
expressed. A suggestion that he await
his tenth birthday before serving his
term, according to the opinion of the
attorney general, would not be accord
ing TO the law.

LAW KEEPS YOUTHFUL
SLAYER FROM PRISON,
THOUGH HE IS GUILTY

youth want him committed to the boys
school.
One solution put forward is that
Charles McGonagle, head Of the reform
school be allowed to adopt the youth
or be lawfully appointed his guardian.
Under some such arrangement the boy
might be given training such as the
school affords and the ends of justice
met.
Many letters have been received by
State officials questioning criminal re-
sponsihility of boy at the age OF o,
and asking II he is not responsible for
crimes or misdemeanOrs at that age,
would he lecolne responsible at a later
age for such crimes
1t appears likely that Governor McCray,
who was out of the city today, will be
compelled to make some disposition of
the case by a broad exercise of his ex-
ecutiye powers.
The law regarding commitment Of
youths to the reform school follows:
If any boy over the age OF 10 years
and under the age OF 10 years be ar
ra!gned for trial In any court having
criminal Jurisdiction, on a charge of any
violation Of the criminal laws of this
State. the court or jury trying the same
may commit said boy to this institution,
instead of the Jail of the county or states
prison; and the Judge may, with the con
sent OF the accused. arrest at any stage
of the cause. any further proceedings on
the part Of the prosecution, and commit
the accused to the guardianship Of said
institution; provided, that no commit
ment shall be for a shorter perAd than
until the boy shall attain the age of 81
years."-Acts 1853. page IL.
