usually long in returning, he
went to find out what was wrong
AS he stepped through the
door. Alexander is alleged to have
seized and choked him. The
other boy, the guard stated,
picked up a heavy bucket,
struck him over the head with
it, thereby fracturing his skull
| The guard received other injuries
of a serious nature when it was
alleged that the boys knocked
him down, then kicked him IN
the face and ribs.
Given Until May rs to Talk.
After the attack on the guard,
it was reported, Alexander pro-
ceeded through unprotected hall
ways and out through the office
of the building which was I'M
guarded. The attack on the guard
was not discovered until he had
escaped from the grounds.
Judge Posanski, whose action
is being severely criticized, in
releasing the boys, instructed
their parents to make some plans
for sending them to another en-
v.ronment. The boys were given
until May Is to talk about the
guns, what had been done with
them and from whom they had
been obtained.
The boys will be sent to St.
Charles School for Boys if the
courts instructions are not adj
hered to, he declared.

executions without review by the
President
Following the presentation of
this petition, on September 3,
President Wilson, after review,
committed ten death sentences,
and affirmed six, the six men be-

which was presented to President
Harding, asking for a pardon for
the cOlored soldiers still in pris-

life sentences were reduced to
terms Of fifteen years, making five

STANWYCK AND MARSHALL IN
 CAPITOL BILL
Breakfast for Two Ro- nance of Lazy Playboy
 and dBusiness Woman

The old wheeze that true love never runs smoothly is again proven and treated in hilarious fashion in RKO Radios romantic comedy ''Breakfsst for Two" co-starring Barbara Stanwyck and Herbert Marshall, which opens tonight at the Capital Theater.
 With love blossoming during g hectic tour of New Works night spots and gaining momentum dur ing series of wild escapades, mis- understanding and quarrels, the gay story races madly along to its hilarious climax.
 Herbert Marshall is cast as the last of a family of ship owners and instead of carrying on the tradition of the family, he neglects his busi- ness and wastes his time and money on wine. women and song.
 As a wealthy and lively girl from Texas, Barbara Stanwyck decides to direct Marshall's energy and inter- ests into different channels, but runs against a bulwark in the playboy's determination to lead a merry life and marry for spite a gold-digging actress, Glenda Farrell.
 The wiles and strategy used by Miss Stanwyck in making over the charming idler and winning his af- factions. lead to the exciting and hilarious climax of the film.
 Heading the supporting cast is Eric Blore, playing another of his memorable valet roles; while Frank M. Thomas, Etienne Giradot, Pierre Watkins and Donald Meek essay other roles of importance.
 Alfred Santell directed Breakfast for Two" which was produced by Edward Kaufman.

 -Oldtimer Tn North

Charles Dubmolton, aged 76, old time Alaska prospetcor, succumbed to a heart attack last evening aboard his barge, "The Prospector, :" moored at the approach to Fem mer's Dock. The body is at the c. w. Garter Mortuary pending word from relatives in Seattle. He is known to have two daughters in Seattle, one of them being Mrs. Bruce Evander of that city, and a sister, Mrs. Ted Shearer in Seattle.
 Dumbolton had prospected off and on in Alaska for more than 30 years although he considered Seattle as his home. He had been over most of the Territory in search of gold. His latest venture was last year when he took party from Seattle to Lituya Bay for beach mining. This ill-fated ven ture ended in Juneau last fall when the entire party arrived here and Dumbolton appeared before the District Attorney with the charge that he had been brought to Ju- neau against his wishes and had been held prisoner aboard his boat. After. investigation, no further &C., ton was taken, the balance of the party going home to Seattle and Dumbolton staying on here. Some goats and horses which the party had were mostly disposed of here.
