The cold weather and snow yesterday and last night bad the effect of keeping the vio- lators of the law mdoors, where they could re- main by the fire, and the result was that the police throughout the city had but little todo except regulate the children who were coasting on the hills with their Christmas sleds. It was their first opportunity this season and hun- dreds of children took advantage of it In Georgetown Policeman Bloom objected to the oceupancy of the sidewalk by the children and their sleds and made three arrests. This morn- ing the threo arrested were called before Judge Kimball for obstructing the sidewalk. The first called was @ small colored boy named Willie Lancaster, who was hardly large enough to draw a good-sized sled up a Georgetown hill. His plea to the charge was guilty, and the po- liceman asked for his release on his personal recognizance, as he only wanted to warn him not to repeat the offense. In discharging the boy the judge warned him not to repeat the offense and told him what would bappen if he did. Isaac Willams, colored. and Harry Burrows, white, were called for a violation of the same law and they were charged with drawing a vehicle other than a baby carriage on the side- walk. These are similar cases,” eid the officer, “and Lwish your honor would take the same action ae was taken in the other case.” “But,” said the judge, “these young men are old enough to know better and their lesson must be more forcible.” They paid $2 each. THE GROWN-UP PRISONERS. There were eleven prisoners in tho dock and they were ull colored. Seven of them marched and the first one arraigned answered He was Isaiah Brooks, the negro who was shot in Georgetown some days by an unknown man. The charge against him was disorderly conduct and the penalty imposed was $5. Joseph Shields, a small boy who rode through Garfield’ Park on horseback, plead guilty to a charge of fast riding. Policeman Kraemer called to the boy to stop, but instead of doing so he gode across the sidewalk and gotaway. Personal bonda. man isa continual erapshooter,” said Policeman Bowie. He was talking ‘about Henry Williams, whom he arrested in Willow Tree alley for throwing “de bones.” Henry said that it wus @ caso of mistaken identity and that he was working when the game was in operation. A fine of $5 was as- sexsed against kim. Jenie Brown, the only fomale in the party, wus accused of having Used profane language on Virginia avenue, aud the judge imposed a fine of $8. A RoW IN Nasu's FLAT. Policeman Sutton told of a row in Nash's flat last night, in which Win. Malvern caused the trouble. “A woman screamed for help,” said the officer, “und when I responded to the call she ran hke a deer and got away.” He said that Malvern came out in the snow bare- d be arrested him. arrested me in my mother’s house,” in- terrupted the prisoner. “That's so,” suid the oflicer; “he ran into his mother’s house and when I got there she had a hatchet raised over his head. If Thad been a litte later I think there would have been a murder.” Eight dollars. am Kobinson, who objected to being i because the policeman had no war- fant, was next tried. ‘he jisges remark was that William had bee in bim, like many others, and the policeman said that he had more trouble with hitn than he ever bad with any person under arvest. Under the circumstances the judge made the fine $15. ‘ “I'm ‘Jack the Ripper’ and I live on Q and R streets,” was what William Butler said when arrested, and not having $8 he went down for twenty-four days. GEORGETOWN, A DESTITUTE FAMILY. Officer Hawkins yesterday discovered an- other case of destitution at No. 1043 Cissel alley, between Grace and Water streets, a family of ten persons—father, mother and ght children. ‘Three of the children are con- d to scantily covered beds and suffering with diphtheria. ‘The head of the house, who spoken of by the neighbors as a hard-work- man when in health, is now disabled and utterly unfit to provide for his large and de- pendent family. ‘Ine smali house is devoid of lurniture and the unfortunates are greatly in need of assistance.
