PROBATION FOR PRISONERS

A few days ago when Omaha's mysterious
snper, imagined to be an invisible firing fiend of
deadly aim, who had stalked the city and dealt out
death to people remote from the other, was
finally discovered and captured, it was found that
he was a prisoner out on probation Some of the
state officials there then openly and vehemently
denounced the parole system now in vogue in that
state, declaring that law and order will be impos-
sble so long as criminals are thus turned loose to
continue their careers of crime.
These denunciations of the parole system may
have been uttered at tense moment when the
speakers were not fully in control of themselves,
for the sentiments expressed are greatly at vari-
ance with the opinion gained by the observations
of Chief Justice Crosby, of New York State.
In an able address before the Parent-Teacher
Association of the Senior High School at James
town. N. Y, recently, Supreme Court Justice
Harley N. Crosby pronounced the Buffalo probation
system as "well nigh fautless," and in this speech
he said:
'eYou viii be surprised when / tell you
of the number that being savaged by the
probation department. In Buffalo survey
was made of 200 men who had been convicted
of felony, and 156 of these were found to be
successes, that is they never came into court
again. Surely anything that does work like
this is advantageous to any county. Proba-
ton is only for first offenders
Referring them to the economic branch of the
probation system, Justice Crosby said:
'Do you realize that one young man gone
wrong costs as much as the salary for one year
of a probation officer? In Buffalo they saved
four out of five. have had ten men under
80 years of age before me at this term of
court"
So it viii be seen that, just the same as with
any other proposition there arc two sides to this
probation, parole, question.
As for the utterances mentioned above, one
was paroxysm of righteous rage, while the chief
personal and careful observation and court
records.
Probation systems in one form or another arc
employed by most Of the states quite generally
now; the faults that develop from time to time
are being corrected, and there are few conamuni-
ties in the country where the majority of con-
one kind or another.
II IS very probably that time viii bring about
a successfully working parole system that win be
adopted uniform by all the states of the nation

A. this evening The first game will bring together the two occupants of the cellar, the Trinity Motholists and the k"nsing- ton Congrcgationa!isis. The M"tho- dlsls have put up stubborn battles in their losing fights with the two league leaders and have q deter mined team which will make trouble for any opponent which lets down for an instant. The suburbanitcs showed greatly improved form against the powerful Lutherans last Saturday and should give the Main street team q real struggle. The game will be especially fierce be- cause of the attempt of both team 10 escape last placr.
 In the second contest thn Sout h church now tied for first place, will take on the dark horse ot the circuit, the Blue Army. The south church has taken hnth its games p!2 yed so far and has what is undoubtedly one o' he best outfits in th" league.

The Mohawks and Ramblrrs meet in the first game today for the second time In the "Y's" Saturday afternoon basketball league. The last time these two teams faced cnch other ON the basketball court the Ramblcra gave the Mohawks q warm session in the first half hold ing them nearly even until Parker and Licnhard shot in some CorkinS goals from the center of the gym which sent the Rambler teams hopes glimmering. The Rambler five has been holding down the cellar pionship. having lost five straight games and they are now due 10 turn in their first win.
 The second game should prove a hummer when the Tutcos and the Pioneers meet for the second time. Only two points separated the winners and losers in their previous clash, the TutCoS winning in the last few minutes Of play with q field goal.
