Acts that In the eyes of the law are
criminal, when committed . by children.
In many Instances, according to Judge
Llndsey, should not be treated as such.
As an example he told a story of three
little boys who were brought before him
on a charge of burglary breaking Into
freight In a: bos car. "How did It hap
pen?" asked the court of one of the
boys. - -.
" 'Well; y see Judge,: replied tha little
fellow with a whimper, "Ms and d kids
went down to d' depot to gets some
watermelons.. Dere r wasn't nona dere
and ws seen a box In d' car with pi'tures
o' figs all over it, why ws busted It open
and we drank one of d' bottles. TJghl
It was fig syrup, and I've been punished
enough.'- '
'The average case Is as rldloulous as
that," declared the speaker.
"In, the ayes of the law whan, ha com
mits a wrong he is just as guilty and
should be punished Just as readily aa the
burglar who enters your house In the
middle of tha night with a pistol In his
pocket' Is such a condition fair? Are

Throughout his discourse Judge Llnd
sey dwelt on the evll of Jair life to ths
boy, and ha told of noted prisons where
criminals of all kinds are locked. "At
the Bridewell," he said, "where over 10,
00 prisoners go every year, over half
are young men. John Sloan, the warden,
and John L, Whitman., that great Chi

more, than one erring father or mother
to. Jail to think over his duty to his

If it Is anything like a home. Too many
homes are not. A number of boys were
once requested to write, an essay on
home, and half of them wrote something
like this:
"A place to sleep Snd get something
to eat,"' -
Judge. Llndsey told of "Llttla
Mooohie," whose father did not-care
whether ha went to school. "The father
was brought before me," said the Judge,
"and when I asked him why the son did
not attend school he replied, 'No, my boy
ha no go to school. - Ha meka 50 cent a
day.' After the father got out of Jail
he always became very busy looking up
nis son if he- happened to be away from
home unaccounted for.
"Before the Juvenile court system was
adopted In Denver, 65 per cent of the
boys arrested were sent to the reform

plished in ths conduct of the Juvenile
court and the Industrial school. Any
state," he declared, "that puta a man at
the head of an Industrial school, because
ha Is a political peg. Is criminal." A
round of applause greeted the remark.
"Do you know what that boy costs
the state of Colorado?" asked tha
apeaker. "Do you know what a similar
boy costs the state of Oregon? I can
ten you in the first case to one cent
I went to the police records and tha. rec
ords of the criminal rourt, and I figured
up In court costs. Jury fees, Jailor's feas,
mileage, attorneys for tha defense for

dustrial school, the total sum of II.-

which I believe amounted to 1(39. ' Do
you know what it haa coat tha people of
tha state of Colorado to not only make
a good boy of the tSOO specimen, but to

been in Jail a number of times and who at

" Te old guy slttln' behind d fence

says, "burglary, an' he's a bad un."
"Tirty; days," says de Judge. It took
three minutes. Jes like a prise fight,

by contrasting brutality and firmness,
and sickly sentimentality with firmness.
Both brutality and sentimentality were
to be avoided he said. - ,

'When we consider the absurd small-
ness of the criminal class, say about
100,000, in a population of 80.000,000, in

admit that it is beyond our control, yet
as conditions at present ara, it would be
to tha advantage of our people, when
