Timmins police are of the opinion that they have cleaned up a number of crimes that were committed by juvenâ€" iles and fellows just out of the juvenile age limit, as well as breaking up a dangerous) crime ring, with the arrest and conviction this week of several of the young fellows. A sudden outburst of crime over the weekâ€"end resulted in six charges being laid against four yuveniles and Rolland Furphy, 17â€"yearâ€" old boy from 408 Balsam street solkh. In police court on Tuesday afterncon Furphy was given a torm of six months on each of the four charges against him with the sontences to run concurrently. The juveniles drew their share of punâ€" ishment as well when three of them were sent to the Industrial School at Bowmanville and the fourth was parâ€" oléd to the Children‘s Aid Society for a year. The charges preferred against the five young fellows were of a serious nature and Magistrate Atkinson decidâ€" ed that he would make an attempt to make the young fellows go straight beâ€" fore they found themselves wrapped up in a life of crime that would lead them straight to the penitentiary. Most serious of all the charges was one of robbery with violence that was pressed against Furphy and two of the juveniles.

About half an hour later, Mrs. L. Murtagh, 153 Maple street north, had a purse snapped from her hands as she was walking along Maple street north. She gave chase and the boys threw the purse away but they made a getaway. She reported it to the police. Later on Monday night the storeâ€" house of the Timmins Golf Club was broken into but nothing was stolen. The door had been broken down but the thieves had evidently decided to The questioning of Furphy and the two juveniles that were arrested with him led to their admitting several of these offences and also to implicating two other juveniles. The police immeâ€" diately picked up the other two boys and laid the charges. In police court each of the boys admitted the charges against them and pleaded guilty to them all. The lads didn‘t even gllve any excuse for leading a life of crime when their parent« vouched that they were well looked after and had everyâ€" thing that, they could wish for.

After hearing the detective explain the cases the magisrate sentenced Timnin and Brouillard to nine months in jail and bound the other two boys owr to keep the peace for two years. Timm and Brouillard were the only ones who had any previous records.
