The main object in working for

That fifteen year old Chicago boy
who was yesterday sentenced to the
reformatory for life, probably was a
diligent reader of the "Nickel Libra
ry" the printing and sale of which
does more harm perhaps than both
whiskey and cigarettes.
The Record believes that high lie

present the only practical solution of
the saloon question. Morally of course
this is a truce with the devil, but

FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BOY
SENTENCED FOR LIFE
Chicago, Dec. 19. Robert Gordon,
aged 15, was today sentenced to the
reformatory for life, after pleading
guilty to the charge of murdering Jo
seph Reed, aged 8. Gordon pulled
Reed under a sidewalk, pounded him
on the head with a brick until he
was unconscious, and then dug a
hole in the earth in which he burled
him, allowing him to suffocate.
If the "Parson" caught a boy of

would try to reason with the boy
but if he caught the youngster smok

the "Diamond Dick" series, the Par

or anything else that happened to
be handy.

Nantes, France, Dec. 19. Considera

the chapel, palace and seminary here

the police, who were compelled to

mob until rescued by troops. Several

biting soldiers.
