Yesterday morning, before Judge Miller, a Colored boy who was scarely tall enough to see over the clerk's desk was arraigned on a charge of vagrancy. He gave his name as Joseph Hill. A policeman arrested bim Wednesday hight just after he returned to the city from the country. The little boy, the officer said, Thy he fat. Dut he hat no home and that's arrested him. ‘thfal prisoner Was warmly clad ina pair of pine trousers and Scoat that was much too large for him. ‘@oat was stuffed down into his trousers, # warm covering for the boy's body. “How old are you, boy?” inquired the court. “Ten years” was his answer. ‘Where ix your home? ot ifbe have you been living with?” “Do you want to go to work?” odes, sir; if Dean get a job.” “Where are your purents?

Yesterday was a great day for foot ball in this city. Capitol Park was crowded with twenty-five hundred enthusiasts, who cheered the Columbia Athletic Club’s team to a vietory over the team from Georgetown College. The game settles the District championship for this year. The referee was Mr. B. L. Martin and the umpire, W. E. Van Loon, both of the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. The contesting teams were as follows: oroncETow. POSITION. ‘The game throughout was exciting and stub- bornly fought. Fleming in the first half scored the first and only tonch down for the college boys. Henchey failed to kick goal and the score was 4 to. Columbia at this point. braced up by sharp rushing and fine running and dodging by Butterworth; the ball was rapi ly carried into Georgetown’s te and Sta: lor scored the first Colum! touch down. Butterworth, however. was un- able to kick the goal and the score was even. After the ball was put in play once more Columbia obtained it and by short rushes shed the college boys backward, until at [Tength Ramsburg was forced over ‘the line, | scoring the second Columbia touch down, from Which Butterworth kicked a goal, leading the score 10 to 4. During the first half McCoy of the Georgetowns was disabled, Dyer taking his place. The first half ended without farther scoring. In the second half Murphy retired in fevor of D.

Veazy scored the final touch down for Columbia and & goal being kicked, the #core stood 22 to 4. Butterworth played ‘a splendid game through- out. ——— After the Peanut and Banana Men. ‘The men who sell peanuts, bananas and other articles from push carts will have to keep on the move except when making # sale or they will render themselves liable under the police regulations, which will subject them to fines. That was what Judge Miller said in the Police Court yesterday. ‘Two cases were be- fore the judge. The defendants were Peter Brown and Peter Cangos. It was the first time that Brown had been arrested and the court suspended sentence. Cangos had been before the court several times before and he had to give up another #5. ju A Bunch of Keys. Anegro named Frank Brown, who was on trial in the Police Court yesterday for disorderly conduct, had a large banch of keya in his pocket. ‘The presence of such a bunch of keys ‘on Brown the court thought was at least a sus- picious circumstance. and the prisoner was called upon to make an explanation concern- ing them. He told a story of the keys and claimed that they belonged to his sweetheart. ‘The judge doubted the truth of Brown's statement and Officer Sullivan went out and brought in the prisoner's sweetheart. | She did not corroborate the statement of her lover and the latter was fined £10 or thirty days. pennies thansains Stabbed With a Penknife. illiam Stewart and John Broadus, South Washington colored youths, engaged in a spar- ring match in a saloon a few nights ago, and Wednesday night when they met they renewed the friendly comba: Blow after blow was struc’x until the participants became angry, and then they went in for a genuine fight. Stewart drew a penknif> and stabbed Broadus in the right breast. Stewart is now serving two months in jail. a Fire in a Stable. Wednesday night about 8:30 o'clock fire was in the street sweepers’ stable, cor- ner of New Yors avenuo and 19th strect, and policeman Holmes turned in an alarm from box 31. The fire department soon got the flames under control after they reached the building, although considerable damage had been done before they got to_ the scene of the ire. How the fire originated is not known, but thonght to have caught from a carelessly dropped match. ‘The stable was owned by Mr. M. Draney, who also had the street-sweeping ntract. The damage is estimated at about 000. Fully insure — A Department Clerk's Troubie. “Tam a clerk in one of the departments,” re- sponded a nicely dressed young man when questioned by Judge Miller. The young man gave his name as John Betta. He waa arrested near 9th ané F streets about 1 o'clock in the morning and the charge against him was pro- fanity, ‘The question of whether he was under the influence of liquor or not was mentioned and his reply was a denial, although he said he had drunk some beer, but Policeman Williams said that he was intoxieated. The trouble all started becatse the young man suspected er man of evil intentions and he com- ined to the officer. Judge Miller thought that Betts got himself worked up over the af- fair after the other man had gone away and that he wanted to fight at long range. The court finally fined the young man and suspended sentence. ee ‘Mustn't Threaten His Wife. After twenty-three years of married life Wm. D. Colburn was yesterday called upon in the Police Court to answer a charge of threatening his wife's life. Both husband and wife told their sides of the affair, and the latter declared that she was afraid he would kill her. Their son wax called as an impartial witness, and, al- though he did not say anything flattering about his father, he mil he thought that his father's hreats had no meaning to them. Judge Miller flair told the wife that it was liseussing the in a little game of give and take. To the husband he gave words of warning not to repeat the offense. The husband was ped under $300 pervonal bonds, aud warned that if he re- peated the offense he would have to go to jail. Holiday Season—Opening at the Palais Royal. Each succeeding season makes it more ap- parent that people are seeing the wisdom of an carly selection of Christmas presents. The success of the holiday “Opening” ut the Palais is illustrating the fact. The “Child's Dream of Christmas.” which is depicted in one of the show windows, is quite artistic, both in conception and execution, while the interior decorations are the most brilliant ever seen at the Palais Ro: The completenens of the stocks will also be noticed, and especially the of choice goods. ‘The lace handkerchiefs at $17, pocket books at $14, seal capes at $60 and fans at $35 are but a few of the many high-priced novelties that have attracted not only admirers but purchasers. -_——_- A Substantial Shadow Sent Down. Last night Mr. Wender, who lives in South Washingtor. near Ist and C streets, saw the shadow of a man at his back window. He noticed the shadow several times and when he walked to the window he saw a colored man in his stocking feet walking along began: of the ck building. He told a colored in the maaee i get his pistol for him, but the man disappeared like a ghost. An examination of the premises showed that the intruder had A BAD LOT OF BROTHERS. ‘Two of Them Sentenced in the Police Court ‘Today. Clinton Johnson and his brother, Walter Johuson, colored men, who live in Hughes’ alley, wero in the Police Court today on several charges of disorderly conduct and assaulting Policemen Keefe and Gehrman, who arrested them. These are two of five brothers who en- deavor to give the police trouble when placed under arrest. Both prisoners showed evidences of having been engaged in a struggle with some one. Their faces were bruised and cut and their clothing spotted with blood. Walter was re- cently released from jail, where he spent a year for assaulting Officer Voelbel. The policemen arrested the pair of brothers for being drunk and disorderly and they fought the officers {he way to the station. While in the patrol wagon they continued their fight and assaulted the driver and another officer. “slam a giant.” shonted one of the brothers, “and it takes men to wi me.” ‘After ‘the policeman ‘had’ told. of the five Officer Keefe raid that Walter liad raid that he was under a spell from God _ not to let any white —— of « policeman take him alive. Judge Miller questioned him about the spell and he said that when he drinks it effects his head and he don’t know what he is doing. Sergt. Boyle related a conversution he heard between the Johnsons, in which they suid that they had bought too many half pints of black- berry and gin. ‘The judge gave Clinton Johnsen the benefit of his never having been charged with such an offense before and fined him 25 or sixty days. So far as Walter was concerned the judge said he was going to give him the same dove that he inter to give others who continually assault Officers. His sentence was six months in jail. tua sanbsaiy For the Eye of the Police. To the Editor of The Evening Star: ‘As there will doubtless be a number of foot ball games here in the future, and as the crowds will increase with the growing popularity of the game, a suggestion to the police authoritics may not be amiss. There was a large attend- ance at yesterday's game at Cupitol Park and policemen present showed a wocful ignorance Of their duties. To be sure, the force of blue- coats present was entirely inadequate, and there should be some allowance made for licemen who had to keep the crowd back from the east foul line without the aid of ropes, but there is no excuse for the wretched judgment shownon the bleaching board side. When the game opened the spectators on that side were all behind the stand fence, and policemen were ; stationed at intervals to keep them: there. But | they didn’t do it,nor did they pretend to doit. At | an exciting dispute during the game the crowd | began leaving the bleaching boards, first in twoa and threes, and when it was evident that there was no hindrance, in fifties. ‘The attention of the police was called to their negligence when the first break was made, but they would not even face the crowd. Later they were franti- cally endeavoring to keep the people back from the west foul line. When one of them was told by an indignant spectator that they had neglected their duty, he replied: “It would never do for us to go out and begin clubbi those young men over the head.” He secm to think there was nothing between abject in- difference and brutal clubbing. To keep the field clear there should be more policemen, and those who are present should have somo idea of what they are there for. ‘One Wao Saw It Att. —————— A Race From Frederick. The road race of the Arlington wheelmen yesterday from Frederick, Md., to Washington, sixty miles, was won in four hours and fifty. five minutes by D. L. Sandoe, riding a heavy- weight Victor Safety.

John Thomas, alias Henry Harris, the colored man arrested on suspicion of chicken stealing, as heretofore mentioned in Tur Stan, was taken to the Police Court yesterday and | charged with being a suspicious person. He was also charged with assaulting Policeman Williams, who arrested him. ‘The prisoner ead not guilty to both charges and Judge filler heard the proof. When arrested the risoner had a basket of dressed chickens in iin possession, which he was trying to sell. He | bed the officers by the throat and choked fim when the latter placed him under arrest. He made several statements as to where he re- sided and sent the officer off on many wild ‘goove chases looking for feathers. ‘The defend- t, in his own behalf, told of how he got the chickens from another man and in giving his testimony Ts tused the word “met.” ¢ judge, interrupting, said, “I guess you did meet hima and afterward left bim to dveas the chickens.” He was required to give bonds or go down for ninety days as a suspicious person, and was fined $10 or thirty days for the assault. gicnst ccc Carnival of All Nations, Preparations for the carnival of all nations ‘to be given next week by the Potomac Woman's Relief Corps auxiliary to the Department of the Potomae, G.A.R., are approaching completion and it promises to be a brilliant aud unique entertainment.

The committee are now devising plans to defray the expenses of the celebration, ‘and it is probable that a ball will be given soon in the Masonic Hall as one of the means to that end. The executive committee of the arsocin- tion meets aguin tonight, at which time the pla: will be more fully digested. The work of mak- ing the necessary connecfions at the several int tions of road with other lines is all that remains to be done, and the company is pushing along: with all possible speed.

Tae Vawwe Of Hood's Sarsaparilla as a remedy for catarrh is daily becomin+ vetter known, as people recoenize in its use the common-sense method of treating this disease. Local applications can do but little good. Catarrh is cons:itutional in character and therefore requizes a constitutional remedy. Hood’s Sarsparilla attacks the dise..se at its foundation by eliminating the im- Purities inthe blood, which cause and ieed it, and thus restores the affected membrane to healthy condi- tion.
