HOME AGAIN. The Military Cyclers Arrive After Their Long Ride. At 5:20 yesterday the second separate com- pany, D. C. N. G. (Washington military oy- clists), touched the asphalt pavement at 14th street. They were met near Brightwood by Capt. Story, a few of the “‘stay-at-homes” and a large delegation of citizens. The titizens were members of the Twilight Tennis Club and came to escort the members of their club who were out with the cycle corps, After giving a hearty welcome to the members of their club and being made acquainted with the rest of the sunburnt lads, the escort, under command of Capt. Story,and the main body, under command of Lieut. Beck, to headquarters and were dismi The following places, including the smaller intermediate towns, were paseed in order daring the trip: Frederick, Hagerstown and Williams- port. Md., Martinsburg, W. Va., Winchester, Strausburg, Woodstock, Newmarket, Luray Caves, Harrisonburg, Staunton, Lexington and Natural Bridge, Va., returning through the same places to Winchester, then through Berry- ville, Charleston and Harper's Ferry to Fred- erick, then through Mechanicstown and Em- miteburg to Gettysburg and Penmar, and re- turning again to Frederick. The boys wont over the battlefields of Gettysburg, Antietam and Cedar Creek and several others of lesser import; saw Luray Caves and the Natural Bridge and through some of the best farming land in the east. ‘The hospitality of the citizens is unsurpassed, ‘as will be vouched for by every one of the com- pany. In every town in which a stop was made the company feceived a hearty welcome from the citizens, as well as the local bicycle clubs. je question of whether the bicycle corps will ever be of auy practical use in time of ac- tual war was one of the ideas to be solved. ‘The men have covered a distance of 690 miles | in fourteen working days, which lacks ten miles [of being an average of fifty miles per day. | Privates Croxton and Brower rode from Me- | chaniestown to Frederick, sixteen miles, in 1.19. | Privates Boody and Shumway covered the same | distance in four minutes leas time. Five of the | number made a century run_ and several others would have finished it’ but for a heavy shower. Private Croxton was first to finish, completing the 100 miles in 11.20, including all'stops. ‘The schedule laid out for them has been covered without asingle break. Lieut.

Beck and Private | Cobleigh mounted their ‘‘bikes™ and started in | hot pursuit. Cobleigh soon ran down the ani- mal, and, loading his wheel into the wagon, re- turned the fractious steed to its thankful owner. Private Jenkins also in a heroic manner stopped a runaway horse in the same town just iu time to save it from dashing into a carriage occupied by a couple of young ladies. He sprang from the sidewalk and seized the horse by the mane and hames, and as he was about to leap upon its back his foot turned on a rolling stone and he feil, but, maintaining a firm nold upon the animal, threw the horse and heldit until assistance came. His trousers were badly torn, his knees and shoulder bruived by the fall, and yet he finished the trip with the rest. The company hada drill of one hour every morning excepting the day of the century ran. ‘They have been thoroughly instructed in all of the movements of dismounted infantry. Day before yesterday the drill consisted of actual | guard duty, and yesterday of a lecture on the night duty of sentinela. Only two of the boys have been excused from drill and they were ex- cused for excellent reasons, POLICE COURT LOAFERS. Judge Miller Will Not Have Them Arocnd Any More. Judge Miller has deciared war on the Police Court loafers. Now that Judge Kimball is off on his vacation Judge Miller is holding both branches of the court, and the pertons who have business im court number more thin enough to fill the chairs and benches provided for the public. This morning some of the familiar faces appeared and the judge gave due notice that there was no room for them. While the public have a right to visit the court, said the judge, there is at prevent a sufficiont number of persons who have business in court to fill all the public apace. The crowd has bo- come so large during this hot weather and the atmosphere so bad that it is absolutely unbear- able and it is almost impossible to draw a free breath. ‘The judge directed the officers that it was necessay to adopt some measures to c rect the evil or some contagious disease will get a start.

A thirteen-inch plate, representing the side armor of the battle ship Maine, will probably soon be tested at the Indian Head proving grounds. This plate has been Harveyized and is the heaviest armor yet subjected to that treatment, and there is much curiosity in ord- nance circles to see how it will compare in were of resistance with the seventeen-ineh un- iarveyized plate recently tested at the same piace. ‘The piate comes from the Sethlehem iron works and in the test will be attacked by ch gun, firing » Carpenter shell. Owing xpense of ending the plate to the In- dian Head proving grounds it has been pro- posed that the test be made at Bethlebem, where there is every facility for the work Although the question is still unsettled, the probabilities are in favor of Indian Head as the place where the test will be made. co aia ‘The Yorktown Starts for the Pacific.

Just after Sunday's accumulation the com- plaints increase. Many and perhaps. majority of persons live better on Sundays than they do during the week, and consequently there 18 There were fourteen complaints made to the health office this morning by malland ee and seven were reported by the police, maki 8 total of twenty-one. Well-Blown Horns. The Commissioners have now given permis- sion to the National Sanitary Company to use horns on the garbage routes, something which would not be permitted by the previous board of Commissioners because there was a section in the police regulations against it. The horns adopted are the same as thove in use in Baltimore by the sanitary company. ‘The horns are to be used after 6:30 o'clock a m. The sounding of the horn is to be regarded as sufficient notice to householders to open their gates for the garbage men although the collectors have been notified to pay vtrict atten- tion to see that all the gates are tried and that all garbage found is removed. The Inspector's Report. ‘Mr. George A. Howe, the inspector, has in- vestigated nearly every complaint made during the last two days and found most of them well founded. « In some few instances he found that the householders were responsible. Inspector Landreau of the sanitary company said that the borns had been sent for and he thought they would probably be here in time for use tomorrow or Monday. ‘The report of pectcr Thomas shows that there were thirty-six carts in the service yes- terday and that fifty-six loads were collected. ——— NO JURISDICTION, Police Court Decision Overruled by Judge Hagner Yesterday. Judge Hagner yesterday afternoon, in the pe- tition of H. K. Patterson, president of the American Mutual Aid Society, who was fined $100 in the Police Court for conducting an in- surance business without first having obtained the consent of the District Commissioners, dis- charged him from custody, the court deciding that the Police Court was without jurisdiction in the matter. The case came before Judge Hagner upon a writ of habeas corpus, counsel for Patterson contending that the penalty was recoverable by civil process aud not by any criminal procedure. Judge Hagner, in rendering bis decision, said that usually points of law were not to be re- viewed on writ of habeas corpus. But the writ related practically to the jurisdiction of the holding or committing tribunal. Therefore, the onlv question in the present case was that of the jurisdicticn of the Police Court in the case. The acts relating to the offense said that the penalty should be $100, to be collected in the courts of the District. ' So the inquiry next arose what courts were meant. It was cleat that the Police Court was not one of the courts contemplated, and hence on that ground alone it appeared that the contention of the petitioner was correct, and that he should be discharged. In addition to that the penalties to be recovered were not made to appear as criminal ones, and therefore it could not be said that they could be collected by other than civil process, While the act complained of might be referred to as an offense, it could hardly be held that it was an offense over which the P. diction. 80, without deciding the penalties for such offenses should be col- lected, it was sufticioht to say that the Police Court’ had no such jurisdiction conferred upon it in the case at issue. Hence, the petition would be dismissed and the petitioner dis- charged from custody. —_——>_—_.
