A huge birthday cake was presented to the finan- cier, with twenty-five candles surrounding it, the number being intended as a compli- ment to his youthfulness of appearance, and decorated with eight bleeding hearts, which were supposed to be typical of the despair of the eight ladies who sent it.

There was a decidedly mixed gathering in the dock of Judge Kimball's court this morning, the men, women and children of both colors numbering nearly three dozen. Annie Crawford, one of the court’s regular visitors, headed the procession, and she was the happiest one in the crowd. The policeman who arrested Annie probably did not know her very well, and instead of charging her with vagrancy he preferred against her a charge of disorderly conduct. “Is that all there is against me?” asked Annie, when she recovered from her sur- prise. °That’s all,” was the reply; guilty or not guilty?” guess I'm gullty,”” was her plea. ood guess; five dollars or fifteen days.” It frequently happens that persons are arrested for breaking into houses, but sel- dom does it occur that arrests are made for attempting to break out of a house. Such, however, was the case Saturday night, when Officer McNamee arrested a colored man named Isaac James. “He slept in the office of a lumber yard,” sald the officer, “and when he awoke he broke a panel out of the door to get out.” “Ten dollars or thirty day: Maurice Harmon, a shoemaker, visited “Bloodfield” Christmas night, fell in the caral and remained there six weeks. His son, John Harmon, twenty years, was drunk Saturday night, and he threw a beer glass through Isaac Sakolski's show window. “I threw the glass through the window,” he admitted to the officer. “I don’t want to go home again, because my father was drowned in the canal.” “Twenty years old and drunk,” remarked the court. “Don’t you think it about time for you to stop drinking?” “Yes, sir,” he answered. “Why did you break the window?” “I didn’t intend to break the window.” “But you threw the beer glass?” “Yes, sir.” A fine of $10 was imposed. A Vagrant. Next in line came a white boy, whose name was given as John Yoder. He was charged with vagrancy, and his plea was guilty. “Last night between 10 and 11 o'clock,” said Policeman Baterman, “‘the prisoner was on Pennsylvania avenue begging. He was under the influence of liquor, and when I saw him stop a gentleman and lady I arrested him.” “Does he belong here?” the court asked. “No, sir,” replied the officer; “he's a stranger in the city.” “Thirty days.” William Johns, a young colored man, who visited South Washington and imbibed a little too much liquor, strolled up 433 street at a late hour, and his loud language was more forcible than elegant. Policeman Williams was one of luis hear- ers, and he deprived the young man of his liberty. This, however, did not have the effect of putting a stop to his vile lan- guage. Had he behaved himself while under arrest he would have been fined only the usual amount, but for his continued bad language the fine was doubled. ——— The Pinte Restored. A plate which, under contract with the State Department, Mr. W. F. Roberts of this city was engraving, was seized by the secret service officials on Friday last. It was made from a proof for the plate of the dl- ploma granted to exhibitors at the world’s fair and was similar to the diploma, except that in place of the space devoted to the award a message of thanks from the Pres- ident to the governments participating in the fair, was to be engraved. As the law prohibits the reproduction of the certili- cates of award, it was thought that the work being done by Mr. Roberts was in violation of this law. However, the mat- ter was explained and the plate was re- stored today to Mr. Roberts, and he pro- ceeded to carry out the contract which he had made to deliver the engraved plate to the State Department. Sasa e The Fine Excused. A colored man named Samuel H.

He told Wells that he would give “are you “I guess How him fourty-eight hours in which to put in a new box, and if this is done he will not ave to pay a fine. 7 PROBABLE DROWNING. Calls for Help and a Hole in the Ice. The watchman employed by the author- ities in charge of the coffer dam construc- tion reports that on Saturday night while standing on the wharf near Tenney’s mill, he heard coming from the vicinity of the dam at the Aqueduct bridge loud and dis- tressing cries, mingled with the werds “Help, help.” He was too far away to investigate im- mediately, and when he reached the spot from which the cries had arisen there was nothing to be seen but a large hole in the insecure ice, resembling that which would be made through the falling in of a body. ‘The watchman believes that a man is at the bottom of the Potomac at that point. There are others employed about Upper Water street who also testify to hearing cries for help. All the stories resemble each other. ‘The coffer-dam watchman thinks that the victim was some one returning to Georgetown on the ice after a visit to the gambling places on the other side of the bridge. He probably became careless and walked on particularly soft ice. The supposed drowning -is said to have cccurred at about 10 o'clock. Dragging parties will investigate today. beret SA oh The public clinic to have been conducted at Freedmen’s Hospital yesterday after- noon was declared off till next Sunday as a mark of respect to the memory of the late Frederick Douglass.
