Bar Pays Respect to Judge of Ford
Republic How One Little Lad
Made Good Despite His Early En
vironments.
DETROIT, Oct, 28. Tito nows sov
oral wookH bro that Judge Frederick
Iilotunn liail died foil upon an iRnor
nnt ntiil at first unrosponslvo nnWIc.
Who nvnB JudRO Frederick Woman?
Throo diiyn Inlot- thousands know hlt
llfo story.
l'Yudorlok Dloinrm, 13 yonrs old.
Illiterate, red-honded and undcrslxod,
n. rcsouud waif and an uxIncorrlRlblo,
was judge of tho citizens' court of
tho Ford Hoimhllc for boys at De
troit. Four .years ago ho was con
roiiHortliiK with liobocs and bogRinf;
food for thorn. Ho watt a dirty,
swearing, tobacco-cliowlng imp, with
no recollection of a homo, or a moth
er, nnd with no respect for any Hvinn
thlntt. Yet at IiIb death n Judge of
Michigan's supremo court trnveled
100 miles to attend the funeral, the
probato court of Wayno county ad
joumed over two days In his honor,
leaders of bar nnd bench held a meet
ing to pronounco his eulogies, nnd
men and women of distinction gath
ered round his b'or In the navo of
St. Paul's Cathedral.
Ford Republic, tho Buporlntendeni
of which Is Homer T. Lane, Is a home
ftjr wayward boys. It Is greatly sim
ilar in Its principles of reformation
to tho bettor-known George Junior
Republic. For a time after Fred Bol
man was brought there tho habits of
his formor life mado him one of the
most unmanageable boys In the re
public. Ho had been taken by the
police from a band of gypsies, .nd Is
said to have been one oC the most
foul-mouthed youngsters whom the
authorities hnd ever discovered.
To causo self-respect, a proper re
gard for others, to grow In such a
soil seemed a hopeless task. Yet
young Blomnn's reformation, after he
came to the republic, though Rrad-
ual, was sure. He was slow to show
tho qualities that were In him. A
strong, almost grotcstque sense of hu
mor, which strangely enough, smack
ed of none of tho vulgarity of his for
cr habits of mind, won him ultimate
popularity. After threo years' rcsi
dotico tho boys elected him judgo of
their Citizens' Court for a term of
six months. At the end of that period
ho was re-elected. No one had ever
administered justice In tho little re
public with such firmness, fairness
and good-will. When Fred's second
term was drawing to a close his fel
low citizens hnd no thought but to
re-elect him. But Fred lay in the
hospital with a fatal illness. Realiz
ing that he could not sorvo them
again, yet unwilling that another
should wear his title, tho cltlzous
created tho position of associate
judge, and to thnt office elected one
of their number.
On the bench young Bolman dis
played IiiBcnuIty, tact, and ability In
handling his follow-cltizens.
White trying an alleged thief, Fred
onco asked tho accused: "Then you're
willing to bo known as a ciook?" The
defendant mado no objection, and
Fred ruled: "Well, you are a crook."
Later ho was brought before tho su
premo court for applying tho word
"crook" to tho accused. In defend
ing himself Fred evolved a definition
thnt has slnco becomo classic In tli
republic: "A crook Is a follow who
Is willing to bo callod a crook."
Heart dlsonso caused his death. In
a eulogy In the probato court ono of
tho attorneys said: "Tho llfo of
this lad called ncaln to my mind a
sentence by Bookor T. Washingten:
'It Is not tho height to which a man
attains that mcasuruH his grontuess,
but tho distance which he travels In
getting there.' Judged by this stand
ard, who can estimate tho greatness
of 13-year-old Fred Bolman? Ho wns
ono of the most efficient aides the
court over had In Its juvcnllo work."
His follow-cltizens attended his fu
neral. As the throng which had gath
ered round his blqr moved out Into
tho opon air an awed urchin was
hoard to whlsper: "Gee! A lot of
folks came to see Fred burled, dldu't
thoy?"

In this now play, whieh is by the
author oC "Throo Twins," Cecil Lean
who with Florence Ilolbrook, is es
pecially fontured in the east, inter
polates his famous base ball song,
"He's u Fan, Fan, Fun," one of the
eleverost satires on the base ball
"rooter" ever given on the stage.
The wo. tls and business of the song
are Air. Lean's own and the uuiic
wns written by Miss Ilolbrook. Mr.
Lean is a base ball "fan" of the
first water and admits that he
learned to imitate the "rooter" bv
the simple method of being one him
self. In his boyhood days in J)e-
troit Mr. Loan was a sand lot ball
player nnd he still nt times regrets
that bis earliest ambition, that of be
coming one of the stars of the dia
mond, was .doomed to dirtppoiuU
incut. But he never misses a game
that ho ean ixssible see. He num
bers many of tho great players as
his jHirsoiinl friends and in the song
whieh he has introduced in "Hritrhl
Eyas" lie has immortalized the faith
ful, but humble "rooter" who is to a
real bne ball game what the charac
ter of the melancholy Dane is to the
tragedy of "Hamlet."

With a total mileage of W.OOO
miles covered since July III, HMO,
and 4S states travelled in the globe
girdling Abbott-Detroit "Hull l)ogs
arrived in this city yesterday in
charge of Dr. Charles G. 1'oroival,
editor of Il&tUth Mngnxinu of New
York City, under whose nupiees a
trip of 1000,001) miles is being nt
tempted. The Abbott ear has been
travelling sfuee July, 1010 on the
longest trip ever known to the auto
mobile industry 100,00 miles nnd
judging from its performance up to
date it bids fair to accomplish the
feat.
The ear has already been com
pletely around the borders of the
United States for the first lime in
the history of nutomobiling and has
puthfiticd the Pacific highway from
Tin Juaua. Mexico to Vancouver,
British Columbia, and has travelled
under its own power from Skagwuy,
Alaska over the dreaded White Pass
to the headwaters of the Yukon
river am been to a point HO miles
beyond tit degrees north in the Arctic
Circle and a thousand niilos farther
north than ever bofore made by an
automobile.
For this feat Dr. Percival and his
companion George Brown won the
valuable silver trophy offered by the
Daily Alaskan of Skngwny, in addi
tion the Arctic Brotherhood the fatn
our organization of the Arctic Cir
cle composed only of men who have
"mushed" over the trail and lived
north of fi4 degrees, made both men
members of the order while Dr. Per
cival shares with the Lord Governor
of Canada, Karl Grey, of being .1
Grand Arctic Chief of tho order. The
two men have crossed the continent
twice nnd are now making their way
east over the historic Oregon trail.
At the completion of the 100,000
.miles, the car is to be toni down and
subjected to an exhaustive examin
ation by a technical committee com
posed of prominent automobile au
thorities, and it is conceded that
both the industry and tho Abbott
Motor Car Co. will benefit greatly
bv what has been arcomnlislic.l i,v
this $lf00 American automobile.
