BOY ROBBIN

c c CA G Ladislaus Soberalski, 16 Year Old Lad, Caught in St. Stephen's. Youthful bandits making systematic robberies of the noor box of .St. Stephen's Catholic church, Thomas and McPherson sts, were discovered Monday afternoon when LatiNlaus Soberaleki, 16 years old. 417 S. Anthony st.t was caught in the act of robbing the box by Joseph Martin, organist of the church. Soberalski had taken $2.67 from the box and had placed it in his pocket when Martin, who had "been watching the act from a confessional, caught him and turned him over to the police. Two lads were outside the church and when they saw the predicament of their companion they fled. Their names are known to the police. The young prisoner told Rev. Louis Horvath, pastor of the church that himself and five or six companions had been making raids up on the box sometimes twice a week and at least once a week for the last three months. At each haul they obtained about $3 or $4, sometimes getting more and often less than that amount. Soberalski is said to have told the priest that J3 had been taken from the box by the boys about noon. For some time Fr. Horvath had noticed that the collections from "St. Anthony's box" were small and suspecting that the thimr had been looted, stationed Martin where he could watch the place Monday afternoon. Sopieralski was arraigned in city court Tuesday morning and his case set for Thursday. Bond was placed at $50. An affidavit signed by Fr. Hovath was tiled against the lad. BRITISH AIRMEN MAKE SUCCESSFUL RAIDS Attacks at Night on the (Icrman Trenches Net Many Prisoners. LONDON", Dec. 26. The official statement from British headquarters Issued last night reads: "In successful ra'ds during the night (Sunday) against the enemy's trenches west of Angres and east of Armentiefes we took a number of prisoners. The enemy this morning (Monday) exploded a camouflet south of Hoi. The damage was slight. "There has been considerable artillery activity at intervals during the day along our front north of the Somme, where the enemy defenses and headquarters were systematically fhelled by us. Mirch damage was done to the enemy defenses. Elsewhere the usual artilleryactivity continued, being most marked in the neighborhood of Ypres and also south of Armentieres where we bombarded the buildings occupied by the enemy in the rear of his lines." FIND COLLEGE MEN ARE SLOW IN GETTING START Seventy-five Percent of the (Graduates iio Into Other Lines of Work. PHILADELPHIA. Pa.. Dec. 26.According to Dr. Simon N. Patten, leading economist at the University of Pennsylvania, only 25 per cent of the graduates in law at that institution follow the practice of law after they leave the university. The statistics also show that 7". per cent of the law students, after the long course and at heavy expense, go into other lines of work. "It requires ten years for a college man to earn as much as the untrained man of business," Dr. Patten added. "While college men require ten years to get on their feet, tho high school graduate usually steps at once into a paying business. Cut it must not be overlooked that the trained man far overleaps his untrained competitor after ten years." CLEVELAND GIRLS ARE NOT AFRAID AT NIGHT CLEVELAND. Dec. 26. Cleveland women are substituting the tin whistle for the male escort. No. not as a matter of choice, but when the escort is lacking, the whistle accompanies the girl out after dusk. Miss Florence Kukura is mother of the movement. She works nights and has got tired of being accosted on the way home by men with such ! Inquiries as "Aren t you afraid, llt- ! tie girl?" and "Where are you goi ir.g. girlie?" i . . . .... "(iirls can carry em in their vanity cases." said Miss Kukura. "If there isn't a policeman in the neighborhood when the call is sounded. there'll surely be some gallant man who'll respond." la Infill Coiurlis Helieyetl.
