Address by Jndae Mark. With a few introductory remarks Judge Sutton Introduced Judge Mack, who spoke at length on the juvenile court work In general throughout the country and In 'hlcago In particular. In part Judge Mack said: "Juvenile court authorities know every child needs Individual love and care. would admonish .all fathers and mothers to give their children that Individual at tention they crave. What the neglected children need Is foster parent rather than an Institution to bring out their bet ter natures. One of the purposes of the juvenile court Is to find homes for orphan or dependent children. "The Distinctively new feature of the Juvenile court work In saving the children of the country Is the care of the delin quent . children. Formerly when a child reached the age of criminal responsibility it was put through the machinery of court and placed in contact with criminals of adult years, with no thought of the child's salvation. The result was the child was damned and contaminated and all the good crushed out by contact with the really depraved. The juvenile court rep resents' the theory that the state Is the greater parent; when the natural parent does not or Is unable to do his duty to the child the state takes Its ward and t.-alns and raises the child to good citizen ship by bringing out the good which Is Wtent In every human being.. That Is the basic Idea of the juvenile court. It is not a legal work, but rather a humane work the, educational feature being uppermost Th one thought Is. 'How may this child be, dealt with that be may turn out to be '- Studies the Individual.

Some children have gone such lengths In wrong-doing they need a preparatory train ing before being placed In another home. "Whatever may be the status of the child's moral condition, the juvenile court alms to Ive tie child that which it did not receive. which was personal attention. We have found what every delinquent child needs In human brotherhood the personal attention of someone wha hae made a real success of life and who is willing to give his love, at tention and devotion to the delinquent. It must be borne In mind It Is the Individual child we are looking after. Each girl who Is going or has gone astray should have some good woman to show her that right Is better than wrong and that there Is always hope for the te pentent alnncr. anrerne Daly of Parents. There la nothing more Important In the world than that the fathers and mothers should make real companions of their boys and girls.' If the fathers and mothers fail In this Important duty I can but warn them of the dangers ahead. And the parenta should not rest by looking after their own children, but should see that other parents know, their children and gain their closest confidences. Teachers, also, should be ever watchful for the first evidences of wrong doing In the school room. "It cannot be said the Juvenile court Is striking at the root of the problem, but mearely dealing with conditions after some thing has gone wrong. Insofar as each member of society causes Justice to prevail, insofar will the children be kept out of the Juvenile court. We must do the right thing If we expect the right to prevail. What conception does the child form of so ciety If he le eent to Kearney for stealing or for some other offense, and he learns of older criminals or grafter being turned free on technicalities? I am glad to see those In charge of our schools beginning to realise the necessity of training the band, eye and heart as well as the brain." Judge Mack emphasised the Importance of striking at the root of the evil and holding society responsible for the conditions which make the juvenile courts necessary. He stated that every member of society owed a duty to the child, a duty which is now being performed more than ever before. lie told a number of personal experiences showing that nearly every child, no matter how lnoorrlglble, may be saved by the personal attention of some good person and trained to be a worthy cltlsen of any community. Work la Chlragro. Prof, Thurston made a short and Inter esting talk of the work In Chicago. He said : It Is a wonderful work we are engaged In. Society at last is becoming conscious of Its duty to the little children. For many years Americans have prided them selves for wonderful development of re sources and educational systems, but only In recent years have they realised that many' boys and girls of the land have not been discovered. The most Important ques tion now before us Is, 'What kind of chil dren are we bringing up? Hence we have Juvenile courts for chlldacn who have not had proper care In other ways. The juvenile court cannot unless It brings personality In touch with personality re. deem the child. The task Imposed on pro bation officers Is overwhelming. They must have assistance of society In general. "The Chicago juvenile authorities are asking for volunteers to stand behind the probation officers. People have been widely awake to physical contagion,' hut have not been as widely awake about moral con' taglon as they should have been. It be hooves every member of a community to take a keen Interest In the work of the Juvenile court." Judges Button and Redlck made short talks. Judge Mack and Prof. Thurston returned to Chicago last evening. Bernstein's Ansial Report.

' BEFORE THE PEOPLE'S BAR Meanest Man in Police Court Gets Thirty Caji in Jail. ROBS HIS CHILD TO BUY BEER Takes llir I'enales Utile- One flensed and fiets Llqnor. De priving Family of Meagre Help. Thirty days In the city prison was the gentle sentence imposed on the pereon re ferred to as "the meanest man who ever came Into police court," thanks, for him. tot the leniency of the criminal code of Nebraska. It is hard to imnglne a man so mean that he would take from one of his chll- ren five pennies Intended for milk and buy bmr with the money, and the money ecelved by begging at that," observed a police court lawyer. Yet Such was the evidence offered against oseph Krusa of 118 Pierce street Mon- ay morning, when the man was arraigned before the people's bar on the charge of ruukenness and abusing his family. The Incident mentioned was only part of the estlmony offered against Krusa, who was sentenced by the pollen Judge to thirty ays in the county jail. Krusa has eight children, who and cared for by the good people of Bt. Peter's parish. ccordlng to reports Kruza has worked for a few days at a time and then spent his earnings for drink. .When the cravings of the drink demon would pull at every fiber of his body and he had no money 1th which to satiate the monster he would send one of his children out to beg. Last Friday evening little Mary returned ome, footsore and weary, with five pen nies clutched in her hand. Mary's first thought was to give the money to her mother for milk for the 2-year-old child f the family. No sooner had Mary croased the threshold than the father grabbed her by the wrist, took the pennies away from her and hurried to the nearest saloon. here he bought a glass of beer. That was testified to in police court Monday morning. Saturday evening the father returned home drunk and abused his wife and chil dren. Neighbors who had been watching the proceedings thought It time to notify the police. Defective Donohoe made the arrest. Before passing sentence on the prisoner the police Judge was anxious to know what would become of the family if the father was Incarcerated. It was explained that Officer Harry Wooldrldge would make an other Investigation of the case and see that the wife and children did not want for any thing. The arresting officers declared that Kruza was the meanest man ever brought before the local police court. The only excuse Ernest Wilson could offer for striking Miss Nettle Miles was that she struck him first. That excuse was ffered before the people's bar Monday morning, but did not go farther than Wil son could have thrown a male bos by the caudal appendage. Wilson and Miss Miles reside at 20 North Twelfth street. I'ntil Bundny evening they lived happily, but on last Sabbath evening Miss Miles began throwing lamps. It was lleged. Not being In the salmander busi ness, Wilson struck the woman a vicious blow on the face. Thirty days for Wilson. Charles Draper, the Jail breaker, played return engagement before the people's bar Monday morning. Draper Is the boy who breaks Into jail for a living. What do you plead," asked the city prosecutor of Draper, Monday morning. Before even knowing what the complaint might have been Draper pleaded guilty. It makes no difference to Draper. He be lieves in pleading guilty and exiedltlng matters. He believes In moving along the lines of least resistance. And he does It all with a smile. No frowns or sulking for Draper. Mr. Draper was returned to the county Jail for thirty days. The charge was vagrancy. . One Fare for the Round Trip. Via Chicago Great Western railway to points within 1j0 miles.

Shisler, Boundhouae Foreman, Shot and Daneeronsly Wounded. OUTGROWTH OF ANOTHER MAN'S QUARREL Earlier In Day Another Person Is Mysteriously Shot In l.esv by Someone t'nseen by the Victim. O. E. Shisler, night foreman of the Bur lington roundhouse near Thirty-second and M streets, was shot and dangerously wounded last night by one of two men who assailed him while he was en route to sum mon a crew to go out on a train. The bul let struck him In the abdomen and made a dangerous wound, but the doctor docs not think It will prove fatal. He was taken to the South Omaha hospital, where he is now resting easily. The men who did the shooting lied ut once, but one of them, Felix Jnhnltis, was arrested later. His companion, Peter Vstl- vanls, has not been apprehended. Both are Polanders. The Injured man was unable to give any reason for the shooting, as lie said he did ont know either of the men and had not had any trouble with anyone which might Induce them to attack him. The police. however, on investigating, discovered that the two who did the shooting had been vis iting with a friend, Peter Weltkenwlcx, who some time previously had a controversy with some railroad men and this came to mind when Shisler ctrme ' along with his lantern. All railroad men looked nllke to them and they proceeded to take a shot ut the roundhouse foreman. . Mysterious shootinev Affray. Andrew Kubersky, 2630 Washington, was severely wounded by a rifle ball yesterUuy afternoon. The ball passed entirely through the thickest part of his thigh, narrowly missing the bone. The curious part of the a (fair was that Kubersky could not discover where the ball came from. He was walking north on Twenty-seventh street, between (J and R streets, when the ball struck him from the front. No one was to be seen on the streets In any direction except a woman. with a little girl. Kubersky and his friend, Carl Gloup, with whom he has lived for the last five months, were coming up to attend the Oerman American democratic meeting at Twenty fourth and N streets, and had Just arrived at the spot mentioned when the accident happened. He felt the sting of the bullet and both men looked around for the cause, but the pain was so slight owing to the numbness of the wound that they paid little attsntlon to it, thinking it was only a spent ball or a missle from a boy's slingshot. They had heard no report. They walked on to the meeting, where Kubersky noticed blood was trickling down his leg. He then discovered he had been shot. He walked down to Dr. McCrann's office, where the physician took the ball from the back or his leg,, where It had nearly passed out through the skin. The ball was a 22-callber less than half an Inch long, such as is used In the 22-callber short cartridge. The course of the bullet had been slightly deflected by contact with the bone. The wound will no doubt be a serious one and will confine j Kubersky for many days and perhaps weeks. He Is a section man working for ihe Rock Island railway. As soon as the case came to Dr. McCrann It was reported to the police, who began an Investigation. They are of the opinion that the shot was accidental and that It was probably nred by some boys who were out practicing with a small rifle at a point be neath the Q street viaduct. A couple of the patrolmen' were detailed to make a search for the parties who fired the shot. It ia not likely that they would, If caught. be charged with any more serious charge than the firing of deadly weapons within the city limits. It la hardly to be supposed that they would take a shot at a man walking the streets out of pure malice. Kubereky was returned to his boarding house aa soon as possible before the wound became too painful to admit of his moving. More Talk ol Vladnrta. There Is considerable talk in some cir cles on the Question of the viaducts of South Omaha. It la stated the repre sentatives of the engineering department of the I'nlon Pacific road have been in conference with -the city department re specting the grafle of F street, which is being established by ordinance now pend ing before the city council. It Is under stood that the I'nlon Pacific asked a mod ification of the grade to such an extent as to accommodate the terminals of a via duct, which. It la intimated, will be con structed on West F street. No definite announcement has beey given out as yet but It Is held as one of the possibilities of the near future. Nothing further had been done with respect to the Q street viaduct. An investigating committee was sppolnled several months ago to examine the condition of the same, and If the rase warranted it to condemn the struc ture. There have been no further reports with regard to the viaduct. Repairs have been ordered since ths appointment of the committee, but there has been some hes itancy In passing a condemnatory order for the reason that the street car company would then refuse to allow their cars to pass over. This would practically close West W street. It la believed that In the event of the vonttructlou of a viaduct at Why 5yrup of Fks the- best family laxative It is pure. It is gentle. It is pleasant. It is efficacious. It is not expensive. It is good for children. It is excellent for ladies. It is convenient for business men. It is perfectly safe under all circumstances. It is used by millions of families the world over. It stands highest, as a laxative, with physicians. If you use it you have the best laxative the world produces. V street or thereabouts the Q street via duct would be closed. It is believed that the railways would le glad if the viaduct were closed tip, as in the position It now occupies It makes a strlcturo of the yard age facilities of the companies. With It removed the tracks could be widened con siderably. The last reports of the U street proposition were that the Rock Island road had not come to any decision as to tha part it would assume in its construction. The Union Pacific and the city are ap parently in line on the proposition. Women Voters for School Hoard. The new primary law does not materially modify the franchise accorded to the women of South Omaha who wish to take part In the election of the member of the school board. It Is anticipated there will be quite a large vote from the women this year. The present candidate will only serve for one year on an unexpired term. The women will not be required to regis ter before the election, but In following the strict letter of the law all will be re aulred to take oath that they are over 21 years of age, that they have residod In the state the past six months, within the county forty days and within the pre cinct ten days and that they possess prop erty which Is assessed In their names or that they have children of school age. City Council Meeting. The city council will hold a session to night, at which the Judges and clerks of the April election will be nominated and approved. Besides this it is understood the council will allow the salaries for the month of March. Two new ordinances will be Introduced providing permanent sidewalks on the 'east side of Twenty seventh from Y to Harrison streets, and on both sides of D street from Twenty second to Twenty-fourth. It Is not thought that the council will take up a large amount of miscellaneous business on ac count of the affairs of Ihe campAlgn. This Week Closes CampalKn. This week will close a municipal cam paign in South Omaha which so far has been remarkuble for Its quietness. Thlt much work Is being done and that the republican candidates are growing In favor each day is unquestioned. In South Omaha, where the annual ex pense of the city government exceeds 1 1125,000, and where within the next year more than $250,onO will be expended for public Improvements, It Is to the Interest of every taxpayer, home owner end cltlien to look carefully Into the record of each candidate liefore voting. Republicans call attention to the fact that their candidates are all men of marked business ability, who have themselves succeeded: that they are men of strictest integrity and un swerving honesty, in whoso hands the af fairs of this city are safe, and who will see that a full dollar of value to the city Is gotten for every dollar of public money expended. Some of these men have been serving the city for years, and the fact that in six years of republican rule Its financial condition has been raised 'from almost bankruptcy, where city and school war rants went begging for want of funds, to a cash basis, more public improvements made and paid for than ever before and all this accomplished with a lower tax levy, is ample evidence of their ability to care for the city's interests. Register Xet Saturday. Chairman Laverty of the republican city central committee calls attention to the fact that next Saturday, March 31, will be the last chance to register before election and urges that every republican who Is not alreay registered do so at that time. swedlali-Ainerlrans Indignant.

Firemen (ailed Oat In Itnln. A fire alurm at 9:45 last night took the department out In the rain. The house of John Woodward, a contractor living at 213 North Twenty-llrFt street, was partially de stroyed. The fire started in the second story of the house and was well under way beforo It was discovered. Mr. Woodward was at the time down stairs, where he had fallen asleep In his chair. Ho did not know of the Are until the department arrived and waked him up. By this time the up per part of the house was ablaxe. The de partment soon had it under control. The loss will be between $5n0 and Itfln. Mr. Woodward stated that a large number of valuable papers were destroyed as well as his Insurance policies and other effects. Maalc City Gossip.

There will lie a meeting at the Young Men's Christian association rooms March ;x, 11106. for the purpose of organising a band of Good Template. All people who are Interested are urgently requested to be present. A large number have already signed the petition for a charter, and the prospects are blight for many more.
