Arrest of “Happy Jack,” the Alleged Highwayman, in Philadelphia. A young man named John A. Campbell, who resides at No. 1712 N street northwest, was on lith street just south of Pennsylvania avenue about midnight April 4, when a stranger came up to him and politely inquired the time of night. Campbell wanted to be obliging and could look at the watch he” was grabbed from behind by two men and held a prisoner until the man in front of him had relieved him of his wateh, chain and breastpin. His cries of “catch thief” did not prevent the men from ronning through the Smithsonian grounds and escaping, as published in Tue Stan at the time. The highwaymen next day sold the watch for lv. The case was investigated by Detective Carter, who recovered the watch where it had been sold. From information received by the officer he believed that he could pin the rob- bery on at least one man, and early this week the grand jury returned an indictment against Jack Laughton, alias ‘Fred Mason,” alias | “Happy Jack,” and upon the request of the | Washington authorities he was arrested in Philadelphia, A requisition for him bas been sent there. —_———-— IS A DRESSED CHICK MEAT? The Question Judge Miller is Called Upon to Decide. “Is a dressed chicken meat within the mean- ing of the law?” “Is the man who s!aughters achicken a butcher?” were the questions dis- cussed in Judge Miller's court in a case tried Yesterday afternoon. Lawyer Hewlett ap- peared on one side and Mr. Dumont on the other. The defendant was Perry Riley, a col- ored poultry dealer in the Center Market. He was charged by Policeman Proctor with being an unlicensed produce dealer and the question was raised that home-slaughtered chickens did not come within the provisions of the license act. Mr. Dumont, who claimed a conviction, re- were not meat; that dressed chickens were poultry. “If that be true,” remarked the judge, ‘the Mr. Hewlett bad argued that as the defend- that being a butcher he was not liable. This raised the question as to whether he was really a butcher. ‘The questions raised were discussed by the was ap- pealed to in vain, Finally the case was con- tunued until next Tuesday. — THE NAT IONAL GUARD.

QUALIFIED MEN WHO WERE NOT PRESE: The men who were entitled to practice at € co- ll, the the best shots in the command, did not have a single representative on the turf yesterday, and the first battalion was nearly as bad. Two companies of the second battalion only were represented. “Those men who failed to come Wednesday,” said Maj. Pollard to a Stax reporter, “have handicapped themselves by not commencing Eventually every man | lery will be given op- | who does well in the gé portunity to do likewise at the range, but ow- ing to the limited amount of practice now pos- sible we are compelled to draw the line on those who fail to make _ fifty per cent on the first trial.

Active practice is kept up in the various courts whenever the weather per- mits, and the men in training will no doubt exhibit some fine tennis playing. All the best players in the District will enter for the tour- nament, although Mr. McCawley at one time thought that it was doubtful whether he would be able to take part. He has, however, decided to enter, It is hoped that the players generally will enter, not merely to get the prizes, but for the practice which playing with new men always gives, The prizes are to be very hand- some. They are to be, with one exception, in money or rather in credits on certain business houses in the city, which will enable the win- ner of the prizes to get what they please, The prizes are duc to the generosity of several of the leading business firms inthe city. The first prize for the singles will be a silver cup valued at #25 and the Granbury plaque. The second prize will be #10, For the doubles the first prize will be €25 and the second prize $16, PRIZES FOR LADY PLAYERS. Handsome prizes have been secured for the ladies, A vigorous effort is being made to in- terest the lady players sufficiently to take part in the tournament. They have a natural re- Iuctance to enter for such an event, but itis | believed that this feeling mainly arises from j the comparative novelty in this city of having ladies take part ina tournament, There are a number of lady players here who have attained considerable proficiency and there is no reason why they should not havea chance to take part in a tournament as well as the men, Some ladies have already decided to enter. Miss Bacon and Miss Simms of the Glenbourne Club, the Misses Bartlett and Miss Meigs are among this number, The ladies will find, as the gen- tlemen have, that tournaments are valuable for the training which they give. a About two weeks intervene between the Dis- trict tournament andthe one given under the auspices of the southern association at Balti- more. The last week will be spent by the players in this city who intend to take part in practice upon grass courts, The grass courts in the grounds at Baltimore are a disadvantaze to the players in this city, who are, as arule, | accustomed to dirt courts. For the purpose of practice games the courts at the marine bar- racks will be used, A number of interesting games have been played on the grounds of the Bachelor Club during the past week. In_ the series of games played by Davidson and Borden against Me- Cawley and Woodward the re now stands 5 to 3 in favor of the forn Byrnes, Sheib- ey, Meteuif and others have been playing a d deal, and their play is watched with great interest.
