The Charges Mostly Vagrancy and Drunk- ennens. There was asnow storm last night and no class of persons knew it better than the petty lawbreakers. For that reason not many of them were on the street and the police were not troubled with them. The scarcity of lawbreakers proved a good thing for the patrol wagon horses, as the animals were given comfortable quarters in the stable instead of having to run through the snow. There was not the usual crowd of drunken and boisterous prisoners in the « and this morning in the Police Court twenty-one pris- oners answered roll call and fully two-thirds of them were marched into Judge Kimbal 's court for trial on charges of violating the municipal ordinances. BOTH WERE OUILTY. Some of them appeared in couples. Hattie Hill, a colored girl, and William Barns, an old soldier, were in the line and they were charged with disorderly conduct. Hattie smiled when j Deputy Clerk Harper looked at her and asked, “Are you guilty oF not guilty replied, with an ited by persons of her class, “I'm guilty, too,” responded the old veteran, whose face appeared as though he was familii With some establishments in the one-mile limi “I'm an inmate of the home,” he said, “and ir of modesty if your honor will give mea chance I'li fetch | the fine in.” “Step back,” said the bailiff, “you have been fined $5.” HIS NAME WAS NOT SMITH. One of the innumerable “John Smiths” came | J next and he was arraigned for vagrancy. He acted as though he could not tell exactiy how he got where he was and he exprossed some doubt 2s to his being guilty of the charge against him. “What about this man?” the judge inquired. “He came into the station at 1:30 o'clock tinis | morning.” eaid Policeman Riley, ‘and asked to be sent down.” # “I was drunk. your honor.” said the pris oner, “and I went to the station because I couldn't get in the house.” “Thirty days.” “That's not his name,” said Sergt. Jordan. His name is Kelly.” “He's known as ‘Bum’ Kelly.” added Bailiff Kendig, “and he’s done time in the peniten- tiary.” ange his name on the records,” said the judge. “I don’t intend to have fictitious names on the records when their right names are known.” WENT TO SEE UNCLE WASH. Kate Bright and Maria Braxton, young col- ored women, were charged on the oath of Po- liceman Garraway with vagrancy. They were found in a stable where they bad no business and there were also some men there, but they were not arrested. “What were you doing in the stable?” they were asked, “We went there to see Uncle Wash,” was the Tesponse. “For what?” “To get his clothes.” “Do you wash for him?” “Yer, air.” “Uncle Wash” was not in court, and Judge Kimball sent the girls down until tomorrow, when the old man will be called upon to tell his side of the story. Nannie Hall attended court yesterday and was not held on any charge. She could have gone home a free woman hud she behaved her- self, but before getting out of the court build- ing she abused the woman, Maria Dennis, wh) Thad complained against her, and was “again ar- rested. lea, but the judge believed the other side of the story and sent her down. THE WOMAN GIVEN $IX MONTHS. Daniel Myers and Maggie Lancaster, colored couple from Jackson Hall penred on a charge of vagraney. Thomas Leiner, an inuocent-appearing col young Y, ap | ored man, told the court how he was lured to the house where the prisoners were by a young colored woman. He was ignorant of the woman's intentions at the time, but after being robbed he understood the game. ‘The woman's character was not very good according to the proof and Judge Kimball said that ail such persons ought to be locked up. He intended to do his duty in the matter and gave Maggie six months in default of bonds. ‘The man was released on his own bonds. “Guilty,” answered a young man from Georgetown who had been arrested for disturb- ing the peace and happiness of the residents of that section. John Dugan was the name given by the prisoner, and the condition of his e gave him the appearance of having come in contact with something harder than another man’s fist. He was given two weeks in default of fine. JU-TICE TEMPERED WITH MERCY. Justice was tempered with mercy in the case of Herman Horseman, and the leniency of the court was partly due to the fact that the pris- oner was able to take care of his own case. “He wi from bar room to bar room begging,” said Policeman Ciscle, “and I ar- rested him. ‘The prisoner exhibited a bottle of medicine and an injured finger, and he said he went in the saloons to ask fora rag with whien to bind the sore finger, which had dressed at the dispensary. “T live in. Virginia,” he said, “where Town horses and land and have a wife and six chil- dren. If you will let me go I will return home at once.”* . “You can go this time.” ‘RE MADE THINGS LIVELY. ‘Wm. T.

Chief Clerk Sylvester, who wag seen by 8 Stap reporter, expressed some doubte as to the power of the police to act as health inapec- tors, He thought that the officers would not have power to enter upon any premises with- ont consent of the occupant. The law under which the officers are appointed, he said, speci fies their daties and in operating as health in- spectors ther would have to perform duties other than are made by the law. Under the law it is necessary for an officer to have a war- rant before he can enter a house, and Chief Clerk Svivester said he did not understand how he could be paid for police duty when he was really acting as a «worn officer of the health department Speaking of the work of a house to house in- spection Mr. Sylvester said he thought an im- portant matter had been overlooked. He re- ferred to the occupancy of squares where there is no drainage or water and where there are stables and tenements, In many such squares where there are tenement houses he said the occupants of them are compelled to depend upon public hydrante for water and throw their offal and filth into public sewers. Then many cuch persons » h clothes and the water fromlinen from the sick root oF hospital is thrown in the yard or somewhere on the ground. With the stables where horses are sheltered year after year the ground becomes saturated and the use of lime has no! good effect on such places. By the use of lime on piles of filth, he said, noxious gases are generated, therein lies one danger. He also o the dumps in thickly populated se. city, pools of stagnant water and the wash water that is thrown in alleva. The box were al-o mentioned and Chief Clerk Sylvester thought that unless they were kept in drst-class condition they constituted a disease-breeding element. noms Bonded to Keep the Peace, Richard Brown, an electric light lineman, wasa prisoner in the Police Court today. He was arrested be-ause he threatened his wife while he was under the influence of liquor. His wife said she had put up with his conduct for « long time. but she could stand his actions no longer. Judge Miller said he thought it was « shame that the man’s wife had been obliged to invoke the aid of the law todo what it was his duty to do. ‘The husband disclaimed any intention of do- ing bodily harm to his wife, aud Judge Miller took his personal bonds to keep the peace, tell: him that if he violated the terms of his bond he would be brought in and sent to jail. Fined for Wasting Water. The water inspectors are looking after per- sons for wasting Potomac water and the police are trying to get the snow removed from the sidewalks. There were four case of the water law tried in Judge Kimball's court this morn iesmyer paid $5, while zell was fined $2. In WHIPPING CHILDREN, From the St. Lonis Globe-Democrat. are the rod and spoil the child is the best idea, I tell you,” said Judge Thomas, as he rolled the Giobe-Democrat up in ruler shape and belabored his knee with it ms he sat in bis Christmas arm chair at the Lindell. “Don't talk to me about persuading and reasoning with children. The only thing is implicit obedience, and the sooner you exact it the better for you and the child, too. Punish without temper, though. Never show your anger to your child. That's the trouble with most parents. They get in a passion them- selves when they whip, and the child is quick to notice it, and soon begins to resent it and cherish it as a wrong. “Do your whipping more in sorrow than an- ger. Unless you can do it in this way you had better not try it at all. The worst whippings I x got in my life were by my mother, who did it with tears in her eves at my suffering and a prayer after it, which took all the resent- ment out of my heart and made me feel that she was the greater sufferer. Ob! this latter- day idea of not whipping children is the supremest rot and 1s doing «great harm. If whipping can be avoided, all right, bat if nothing else will do lay it on with slipper or switch. The thing is to make them mind. Begin the business exrly in life, too, for the longer it is put off the harder the task will become. “What does a child know about the reason of things? Why attempt to reason with a little thing which is simply a bundle of no’ petites and impulses, which must, for its own good, be restrained ‘and directed? Obedience is the prime education. I tell you more than three-fourths of all the ugly lawlessness and crime which now afflicts thia country comes from the lack ef control in the family circle. The disobedient, self-willed, indulged child ix sure to give unhappiness ahd trouble to bis parents and, after leaving them, to violate the laws of his country. No respect for authority ina family circle means no respect for the go¥- erning powers of the state. This is all just as true as preaching.” ~se- HOME-MADE PANTALOONS. Com ted in Forty Hours, Withont Help From Any Modern provement. From the Greenfield Gazette, “Late in the afternoon of one of the last days of May, in the year ‘76, when I (Mrs, Eunice Locke Richards) was a few months short of fifteen years old, notice came to Townsend, ‘Mass., where my father used to live, that fifteen soldiers were wanted. “The training band was instantly called out, and my brother, that was next older than I, was one that was selected. He did not return till late at night, when we were all in bed. When I rose in the morning I found my mother in tears, who informed me that my brother John was to march, next day after tomorrow morning at sunrise. My father was in Boston in the Maseachusctts assembly. “Mother said that though John was supplied with summer ciothes he must suffer for winter garments. There were at this time no stores and no articles to be bad, except such as each family could make itself." The sight of moth- er’s tears always brought all the hidden strength of body and mind into action. I instantly asked what garment was needed. She replied ‘pantaloons.’ ‘Oh, if that is all,” said I, *we will spin and weave him s pair before he goes.’ ‘But,’ said mother, ‘the wool ison the sheep's back and the sheep ate in the pastare.” “-I immediately turned toa younger brother and bade him take the salt dish and call them plied: ‘Poor child, there are no ee. ck have some small shears at the loom,’ “But you can't spin and weave it in so short a time.” 53 58 S E 4 i fl a5 ii ut i a i é i Hi t i MH i A if e A cet i E; I i i i Ui poet iti i i From the Chicago Tribune.
