Come to I wM OdDlpi CdDinmpiMy, Bfot ml iioffigoM flo g ' 1 eg GIVES VERDICT nemusin Jury Decides That the Boy ' ' Homicide Is a "Delin quent Minor." ! The Juvenile court jury In the case of Jackson Held, the 12-year-old boy who killed George V. De Mars on Au gust 4, returned a verdict yesterday i afternoon declaring young Reld to be a delinquent minor. The jury was out an hour. . This verdict came as a surprise, not only to the defense, but also to the at torneys representing the state, who had virtually declated that thev did not expect such a verdict. The defense . had proven that young Reld, whn h6 ; , nhot De Mara dead with a huge 45 callber revolver, thought he w.is !n danger of his lift, or at leant . rinns bodily Injury at the lianos in furiated man. It hid been prettv !: rl - proced that f Mara was running to the attack armed with an oar, and was about to chastise, not the tog as the prosecution claimed, but the boy. Attorneys Idleman and Ksterley for the defense confidently expected a ver dict of aci"l'tal. and the best that the state hoped for was a hung Jurv. But the Jury evidently took other things Into consideration, particularly the Influences by which the boy is sur- Pieces of silver that are feldom used .

The fact that the boy's step father had Instructed him to shoot and shoot to kill on at least one occasion, if he were molested, was probably the determining influence on the verdict.. Bchemp, the stepfather, when on th"'e witness stand yesterday gave testimony which will probably either send the boy to the reform cohwil nr rAflult in hla betng placed on trial In the circuit court ror murder. Hchemp swore, as If It were the most natural thing In the world; that he himself had instructed the boy to use the revolver If any man miempiea to enter tne nouse. "I told him to shoot, and shoot to kill." Bald Schemp. "I told him he must not wound a man, because the man might stll be able to do him some In jury. He must kill him." Schemp added that he had given the boy no Instructions in the use of the gun which was kept where the boy could get it at any time. Other testimony as to the home sur roundings of young Reld was of such a nature that the Jury probably con cluded he would be better off In the reform school than at his home on Uovernment Inland. It Is nroh.ltll- that lh. ntHtiwl. 1 of the boy hims-lf had a good deal to uo wnn tne vfrdlct. He exhibits no remorse whatever for his act. seeming ratherproud of what he has done and carrying himself as a hero. An acqult- in mown prune oiy nave confirmed him n iiiin iniuua. The attorneys representing the state wtin wen- Dfputv District Attorneys Moscssolin and Vreeland and special lounne. jonn ii Stevenson, expressed n-pret thut thTe is no statute under which thi-v .-an prosecute Schemp. the hoy's stepfather, whom they hold to be mi- one really responsible for the trae edy. rhey think It' was undoubtedly his teachinKS and instructions that made joung H'-j i so ready to tae a human j 1 1 e. J he verdict rendered carries with It no punishment. It merely places the imiv nnuer tne jurisdiction or the Juve nile court as a delinquent bov." Judge J;mtenb'i'i mav sentence him to the reform school. (he thinks best, or niy release him with a warning, or may order mat the bov be thrashed bv his mother, or may hold him to the circuit court for trial under the Ir illctment which , hargeg him with irar- ucr in ine rirst degree. The attorney for the defense moved for a new trial, and this motion will be argued thiB afternoon. Charge Against Schemp. A charge of contributing to the de liniiuency of a minor child Is to be placed against Charles H. Bchemp. the stepfather of Chase Jackson Retd. A statement, to that effect wa s made this morning by leputy District Attorney Mnsessohii, who said that he would him self make the charge. This becomes possible through the verdict rendered yesterday by the Jury in ma irmi oi young rteia ror oenn quency through the killing of George F. De Mars. Schemp testified yesterday that he himself had Instructed the boy to kill a man if he tried to enter the house. Schemp's whole testimony was such as to make it apparent that ihe boy would probably never have thought or snooting in oiars k it nad not been for the teachings of hf. stepfather and the general nature of his home sur roundings. Contributing to the delinquency of a minor child may under certain circum stances become a serious offense, pun ishable at the discretion of the court with Imprisonment In the penitentiary. r AT THE THEATEES Seat 9a Je for "Paid in Full."
