Tiring of the monotony of life in the house of detention, where they had been held several 'days, four boys, whose ages range from 12 to 16 years, took French leave early this morning. They spread the bars of a dormitory window on the third floor, using only their hands, squeezed through the opening and descended the fire escape to the ground. One was recaptured. Three of the boys had been arrested for the alleged unlawful entry of a chaln store at Kenilworth a week ago, later mhnill‘lng, #according to the po- C, lice, that they also had robbed other places. They are Carl Davis, 16 years old, 1111 Potomac avenue southeast; Raymond Davis, 12, 332 C street northeast, and Thomas English, 12, Quantico, Va. The fourth is George Narrington, 14-year-old Chinese ward of the Board of Children's Guardians, who was awaiting transportation to the Industrial Home School. Carl Davis, who was armed with a pistol at the time of his arrest, and the Chinese boy left the building FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1925. about 2 o'clock, having worked so noiselessly that their absence did not become known until about daybreak, when the two younger boys made a slight noise leaving. « > George M. Zuch, a supervisor, quickly learned of the departure of the two younger boys and went in search “of them. He ‘soon located English_on his Way one of his companions and captured him,-but the boy accompanying him soon got out of sight. to the home of When young English was returned to the House of Detention he told of how the older boys had planned the escape and spread the bars. It was mot his intention to leave the building, he stated, knowing he would be re- captured, and Raymond Davis also concluded to remain. Two hours after the other boys left the bullding, how- ever, they were unable to resist the temptation. Report of the escaps was communicated to police. and nearby communities were notifled.
