HIS SECOND TIME IN COURT.

Frank Clarken Is Only 9 but He Is
Making a Record.

Frank Clarken, 9 years old, of 1734 Locust street, was before the juvenile court yesterday for taking six sacks and selling them to a junk man at Eighteenth street and Charlotte streets.

"You were in the court before," Judge H. L. McCune said. "What had you done that time?"

"I was teasing a lady," the urchin replied.

A search through the records disclosed the fact that Frank had broken a lamp belonging to a neighbor of his mother's and when the owner of the lamp had remonstrated with him he had called her "an old witch." The court sent him back home and told him to be a good boy.
