A few nights ago the night
watchman of the Rock Island
yards found a boy of some 16 or
17 years of age; cold, hungry,
penniless and friendless.
He had been trying to catch a
freight out but had been unsuc-
cessful, and when found was
despondent to that degree which
makes outcasts if not anarchists.
Under our beneficent laws he
should have bee cast into prison
as a vagrant. "The law allows
it, and justice grants it," but the
officer rose superior to the law's
technicalities, and brought the
lad up town to a fire.
A restaurant gave the boy a
good supper, and a—is sacrilege
to say it?—saloon keeper fur-
nished him a bed, and today
saw his smiling face behind a
counter where eatables are sold
—as happy as a clam—clean
looking and an honest boy, no
doubt. He is not a "vag," al-

the mandates of the law.
