the WALL 2 YEARS. Hoboken|ImbecileTried to Kill Playmates and Has Since Been Kept Prisoner. STATE REFUSES AID. Society for Prevention ‘of Cruelty to Children Now At- tempts to Make Provision for Unfortunate Lad. For two years, or since he was Beven years old, Robert Scott has! been bound hand and foot in a room in the home of his parents, at No.|« 214 Hoboken street. He is an iinbe- cile who has threatened violence to} hie brothers and sisters and whose parents for that reason have kept} < hia tethered closely to thy wall. The child’s imprisonment hes come to the notice of the Hoboxen |; Society for the Prevention of Cru- elty to Children, and Mrs. C. 8B Alexander, of Castle Point, who is, fm member of that organization, nas) been making efforts to relieve the! buflering of the child. Poormaster Barck. of Hoboken, bas been appeaied to several times, and cach time he has said that, no has been unable to have the State} authorities take charge of the !m- becile. Until two years ago the little fellow was not strong enough to do much , and was permitted to play with er children, In fact, it was not noticed until then that his weakness of mental faculties was so pronounced as! to make hith an utter imbecile. But | when he was seven years old and still | incapable of exercising the ordinary mental functions, and when it was no- ticed that he flercely attacked his play mates, even trying to kill them, he was) placed under confinement. A room was! Bet apart for him, and there he has been closely bound for the last two years. | The parents believed that they could | take care of the child in that way| themselves, and are sald to have kept | the condition of the boy a secret. When Mrs. Alexander heard of it, how- ever, she Intérested the Society for tho! Prevention of Cruelty to Children in the case, and an investigation followed. | Vhe Society 1s now trytng to interest | the State Board of Children’s Guar-| @ians with a view to having the boy | taken to an institution for feeble-mind- ed youth, ——— WEAKFISH ARE EARLY.
