JUVENILE COURT IS BUSY (Continued from page 1.) m exemplary youth. The Norden youth claims to be a little less than 16 years of age, and will undoubtedly je sent to the reform school. As a matter of fac he will find there a -etter home, perhaps, than he has ver known, asfrom his own story hf vas sent- out to shift for himself when 'e was but 10 years of age and has een "sort o' drifting along ever iince." He says he has worked at all torts of work since then, sometimes Ir . box factory and again on the farm r shining shoes. As evidence of tht act that he has served time in t !jox factory he exhibits a mutllatec. and. The last two lingers me min ing. As evidence that he has had tr lo with horses. Is a great scar between lis eyes where he says he was kicked y a colt. His story Is a hard one. '.Ike the story of most of the boy vho have gone wrong, It shows that .he home was not what it should hav been. His mother died when , he wa: j years of age, and at the age of 1C 'lis stepmother thought that it wn? time for him to begin to earn his own ivlng. He says he. Is willing to go to he reform school, where he hopes to be able to learn a trade and then be ible to earn an honest living. A noil ioc Case. Ira Newman 4s also Implicated, but at the present time there does not oem' to be any particular evidence ne-ainst him. and unless something more is developed at the trial tomor row morning he will be discharged. In yesterday's report of this ca. the name of Ira Moon was substitute for that of Newman. The Moon boy Js in' no way connected with the af- "air and his name should have r... been used. Young Moon bears a good ;putatlon and we hope our reader.' will realize that his character is untarnished. E. D.
