Remarkable Case of Infantile Crime
In New York.
New York, Oct. 12.—Jealousy on the
part of a boy two and one-half years
old against his baby sister, one month
old, has led to the death of the lat
ter at the hands of the boy.
The tragedy occurred In the family
of Nicholas Robinson at Nyack, N. Y.
Since the little girl came a month
ago, the boy exhibited many times ev
idences of jealous rage. When at
tempts were made to interest him In
the little one he frequently ran away
crying and once he upset the cradle.
Finally he was left alone for a few
minutes in the room where the baby
lay asleep. The boy was playing with
a small bronze statuette
he cried to his mother:
“Hurry!
who, "ninety-nine times dut of a hun
dred, seeks divorce that he may have
more marriages.”
The proper conception of matrimo
ny was declared to be the basis of a
pure and anticipatory life, as well aa
the best determent from evil.
The conference voted to join with
otJTer churches in an attempt to se
cure the enactment of uniform divorce
laws in every state.
