JUDGE IMPOSES FINES FOR A HORSEWHIPPING Mrs. Bockrath of Sacramento Declares In and Out of Court That She Adminis- tered Proper Punishment to Douglas ACRAMENTO, Oct. 6.—“I horse- whipped Philip Douglas,” said Mrs. Charles Bockrath in the City Justice’s Court to-day. “and un- der the circumstances I would do it again.” Justice March held that the courts of- broken the law in going with Mrs. Bock- rath’s pretty 16-year-old daughter, and Bockrath and his wife had pleaded guilty of the charge of bat- tery preferred by Douglas, he would fine them $20 h. Mr. and Mrs. but Mrs done right “What can a mother do under such cir- cumstances?” sald Mrs. Bockrath in an interview to-day. “It is not a crime pun- ishable by arrest and imprisonment for a young man of 23 or 24 to keep the com- pany of a girl of¥15, even though the | parents believe he is not a proper asso- ciate for her. The most the parents of the girl can do is to reason with the yvoung man and ask him if he will not wait until the girl becomes of age and visit her at her home, and then if, in vio- lation of a promise, he continues to go with that girl, the parents should do as 1 have done—take a horsewhip to him. ““This is the second time I have horse- whipped Douglas in a public place, for the reason that it is the second time he Bockrath paid their fines, Bockrath insisted that she had tion to my daughter. My daughter is a 2s a mother to watch out for her and to protect her with a horsewhlp whenever it seems to me she needs such protection. “I believe there are many other mothers who should do the same for their daugh- ters, and they should be commended for | it and not subjected to the annoyance of arrest. 1 have pleaded gulity, first be- cause I horsewhipped Douglas as he charges, and second because I did mnot want to drag my daughter into a trial in court.” Both Bockrath and his wife declare that there is no truth in Douglas’ story that he was beaten by men immediately after the horsewhipping scene, and that what- ever bruises Douglas shows are due to the lashes of Mrs. Bockrath's whip, punctu- ated by a few blows from her husband’s fists. The father of young Douglas declares his son's reputation can easily be proved excellent, and that he had got out of a sick bed only a few days before the whip- ping episode.
