OFFICIALS FREED
IN CONTEMPT CASE
District Supreme Court Holds
Juveniles May Be Convicted
in Police Tribunal.

Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford OF
the District Supreme Court today de-
cided that United States Attorney Leo
A. Rover, Chief Deputy Marshal Stephen
B. Callahan and George A. Sterling
superintendent OF the National Training
School for Boys, are entitled to writ
OF prohibition against Kathryn Sellers
Judge Of the Juvenile Court. who cited
the officials last August for contempt
OF her court in removing Frederick c.
Russell, colored, II years old. from the
custody Of the Juvenile Court.
The boy had been held guilty Of a
IL last and placed on probation. On
August 6. bv direction OF Rover, Gala
han took the boy into custody on a
felony charge and placed him in the
training school.
Arraigned In Police Court.
The boy was arraigned In Police Court
August 10. and pleaded guilty TO house,
breaking and joy-riding, and was sent
to jail to await action of the grand
jury.
Judge Sellers issued her citation in
contempt and Peyton Gordon. then
United States Attorney, began q pro-
ceeding for the writ of prohibition to
prevent Judge Sellers proceeding with
the citation. The matter came before
Justice Frederick l.. Siddons. who post
poned consideration until the Court of
Appeals should decide the question of
the exclusive right OF the Juvenile Court
over q juvenile under II years of age.
That tribunal has since acted In an
opinion holding that the Police Court
has concurrent jurisdiction over all
Juveniles charged with felonies. The
application for the writ was then re-
newed before Justice Stafford,
In lengthy opinion Justice Stafford
holds that Rover and the other officials
were maintaining the authority Of the
District Supreme Court to have posses
sion OF the boy while he was awaiting
action Of the grand jury, since the court
could not proceed against him while
deprived OF his custody, and had never
consented to surrender its possession OF
him.
Not in Contempt.
There is no more reason. the court
suggests, to hold these officials In con-
tempt OF the inferior court than ii
would be to hold the Justice of the Dis
trict supreme Court that passed SEN
tence on the boy.
Since the Juvenile Court had no
power, the court points out, to interfere
with the Jurisdiction of the District
supreme Court, II can have no power
70 entertain contempt proceedings based
upon that interference.
Assistant United States Attorney Neil
Burkinshaw argued the case for the
officials.

Doctor at 83 Finds People
Preferred His Prescription

The basis of treating sickness has
not changed since DR.. Caldwell left
Medical College in 1875, nor since
he placed on the market the Taxa
tive prescription he had used in mis-
practice, known to druggists and
the. public since 1892, as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin.
Then. the treatment of constipa-
ton, biliousness, headaches, mental
depression, indigestion, sour stom-
ach and other indispositions that
result from constipation was en-
flrely by means of simple vegetable
laxatives, herbs and roots. These
are still the basis of DIR. Caldwell $
Syrup Pepsin, which is a comhina-
ton of SIENNA and other mild Taxa.
tive herbs. with pepSin.
DIR. Caldwell did not approve of
drastic physics and purges. He did
not believe they We're good for hu.
man beings to put into their sys-
tenn. II grown people want to use
them no one can deny them the
privilege, but they should never be
given to children.
The simpler the remedy for con.
etlpation, the safer for the child and
for you, and the better for the gen.
eral health of all. And as you can
get results in a mild and safe way
by using DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, why take chances with strong
drugs? All drug stores have the
generous bottles.
