A 14 year old boy was sent to the county industrial school for six months for his share in stealing 10 pounds of butter from a wagon of a Butte wholesale house.

One girl was tried for incorrigibility and given another chance to obey her parents. The probation office noted the girl would not stay home at night. Two widows with two children each were granted compensation.
