BEFORE JUDGE KIMBALL The paily March of the Army of the Unfortunates. Some Were Vagrants and Some’Had Used Too Much Liquor—The Different Victims, There were more than two dozen pris- oners in Judge Kimball's procession this morning, and only two of them were wo- men. Court opened at 9:30 o'clock, and when the procession started Policeman Nicholson had a complaint to mike atout*}'**“‘Not tramps begging in Eckington. He had two victims, Alexander Starke and Edw. Kruder, young Germans, against ‘whom he had a charge of vagrancy. “Yesterday afternoon,” said the officer, “complaint was made that two tramps were begging from house to house, and these men answered the descriptions given of them. While I was looking for the men a lady called me and told me that two tramps had come to her house and de- manded money. She gave them some money, because she was afraid of them.” Scon afterward he met these men, and the lady thought they were the men who had been at her house. Basen ede, + “What did they say?” “They are Germans, and claim to have: come here from Baltimore.” “Your honor,” added the officer, “tramps: #re coming in pretty thick now.” “We left Baltimore at 12 o’clock*day be» fcre yesterday, and tramped here,” said cne of the men. ~ “Why did you come here?” ‘Looking for work,” answered ‘one of them. ‘We have only been in this coun- oe ena “And what about you?” Ramoaine: y the other man “nly statement is the same.” : The men promised to leave here and re- oe Baltimore today, and were re- A young man whose name wa: v James Mitchell was in the Rrocessauice cause of his intemperate habits. He had been in court many times before, and he urderstood as well the effects of a sen. terce as he did, the effects of liquor. ‘He was very drunk yesterday,” said Sergt. Dunnigan, “and according to what the officers say he is frequently in that Sree ce alii im_the station over slee] ° . lene Pp off the effects of what he “When were you last arrested?” ‘The last time I was in court,” he an- apes hes 's in October.” . “October?” asked the judge, whi recovered from his pues eons: “Yes, sir; but I've been e then for being drunk. “Fifteen days.” About Drinking. Lawyer Moss, the attorney from Ana- costia, appeared in the next case, and he argued that his client, Harry Mosby, a colored man, was not drunk when he was arrested. The officer had said he was drunk and had to be helped in the wagon. It was the first time Harry had been arrested, and counsel thought he was probabi: e and the officer thought he was tee “But he was drunk,” said Officer Trum- bull, “and I could smell whisky cn him.” “Do you drink?” the officer was asked. eliao not," was his response. hen I am very glad to hes # counsel ys hear it,” added “And he should be commended for it,” said the court. “Some of the Gfticers do drink and there is no commendation for them.” Lawyer Moss continuing made an effort to tell of some of his own experiences, and said that until he became a er he dia not drink. “But,” he added, “1 would not to swear to what I might take now.” You had better be careful, Mr. Moss,” said the judge, “or the court will have to give you a temperance lecture.” Mosby was fined $5 or fifteen days. At a Revival. In the next case Lawyer Peyton appeared to defend Godfrey Jones and George Hack- erson, young colored men who were charg- ed with having disturbed a revival meeting in the Seventh Baptist Church, near Rock creek, last night. Jones, who was married in that church about a month ago, fell asleep in the meet- ing last night, although one of the church officials said they v ere having an “excitin’ time” there. “I was orderly in the church,” said Jones, ‘but 1 was asleep.” “Do you sleep in an orderly manner?” “I don't know.’* “Do you snore “If i do, I don’t know it.” When it became necessary to describe a revival, Lawyer Peyton came to the front and concluded: “I know, for I've been there myself.”” Evidence given for the District was to the effect that the men were under the in- fluence of liquor, and counsel said he would admit that it was against good morals for a man to go to a spiritual meeting with another kind of spirits in him. He charg- ed that the church officials caused the trouble. “These church officers,” he said, “are too thin-skinned, and if one coughs or sneezes in church he will be called to account.” Judge Kimball commented on church dis- orders, and said he thought that persons who are disorderly in churches and street cars should be more severely punished than for common disorder on the streets. It took Judge Kimball one hour to hear the evidence of five witnesses, make a speech and fine the defendants $10 or thir- ty days. : Mary Dwyer, a little old woman who has been figuring in police circles a number of years, was arraigned for vagrancy. “I very reluctantly brought her here,” said Sanitary Officer Frank. “She has been in every charitable institution in the city, but she will not remain in them. Her daughter will give her a good home, but she won't stay there.” “I believe this woman's right,” remarked the judge. “Don’t you believe it,” ain’t crazy.” “JT don’t know what to do with her,” said the judge. “Give her six months twice a year,” said Mr. Pugh. “It is about the best thing to do with her. She will be well cared for down there.” A sentence of six months was imposed. Yearly Migrations. “These men work hard to keep out of work,” remarked Mr. Pugh when seven white men and two colored ones appeared as vagrants. They were found in the Balti- more and Ohio sand house about 2 o’clock this morning. The sand is warm and the men found it a more comfortable place than out of doors or in barns. “I'm on my way north from New Or- ’ said one of the men. “That's just the way with the tramps. In the fall they go south and in the spring they start north.” “They follow the robins,” remarked Mr. Pugh. “I'm on my way home from Newport News,” said another. “Where is your home?” “In Phillie.” “Where? “In Philadelphia.” “And what are you doing here?” the judge asked another member of the party. “T thought I let you go to leave town?” “IT did leave.” “But you returned, and now you will have to go down.” He was given thirty days, as were five of his friends, and three of them were released to leave the city. Laura Welch, a woman who has a fond- ness for liquor, told the court that she has the vertigo and headaches. ‘My husband lives in St. Augustine, Fla., and he wants me to come down there and meet him.” “Will you go to Florida if I release you?” will, indeed, and I'll give you my word as a lady that I'll go.” She was released, and the court told her that if she is here Monday she will have to go down. arrested. once is not “y mind said Mary. The Infant Class. Three colored and two white boys, who were found sleeping on the iron grating in rear of the Corcoran building, were in line. Potomac water had not come in contact with the faces of the white boys for so long a time that they were almost as black as the colored ones. Two of them said they had been to the theater, and went to the warm grating be- cause it was too late to get in their homes. “What was the charge against you when you were here before?” one of the colored |. boys was asked. “Shooting crap.” The two white boys and one ef the col- ored ones were sent down for twenty-four hours to take a bath and the others were given two weeks. “We've now got to the infant class,” said the judge when a nine-year-old col- ored boy, named Joseph Washington, was called. His parents, he said, sent him here from | Baltimore to his uncle, but he could not find him. He was turned over to the board of guardians. * Edward Taylor's nervous condition was evidence of drunkenness, and Policeman Newkirk said he had been on a spree and had made a nuisance of himself. “I’m a pension attorney,” he said, “and I came here from Philadelphia to attend to Bewe Unfortunately, I got to drinking and" unfortunately,” interrupted the judge. “When a man gets drunk he does it with his eyes open.” The. officer told of the number of times he had seen him drunk, and a sentence of four days was imposed. Martin Hogan and Fila Wilson brought up, the rear of the procession as alleged vagrants. “She eens a house in Louse alley and supports him,” said Policeman Roberts. ‘The officer told of how they had disturb- ed Ellen Ale’s Mission. ‘They .were sentenced to three months each in default of real estate security. —— HIS LIFE WORK ENDED. Death in China of Rev. Dr. Nathan Sites, a Well-Known Missionary. A letter was received in this city yester- day announcing the death from fever at Foo Chow, China, on February 10, of Rev. Dr. Nathan Sites, the senior missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in China. Mrs. Sites, the widow, has been living in this ¢ity for the past two years with her son, Prof. ©. M. Lacey Sites, and her sis- ter, Mrs. A. P. Lacey. A daughter, Miss Ruth Marie Sites, who was sent out from this city by the Woman’s Foreign Mis- sionary Society, was with her father at the time of his death, and a letter from her brought the sad intelligence to his family in this city, The news was entirely unex- pected, as Dr. Sites had enjoyed vigorous health. He had, however, been engaged in conducting a series of meetings, and was attacked by the fever, which resulted in his death within a week. The deceased was one of the best known representatives of the church in the for- eign field. His first visit to China was made in 1861, when, accompanied by his wife, he went out in a sailing vessel. His familiarity with the language gave him great influence with the natives, and his life work was cne of great value. Mrs. Sites expected to go back to China next year.. The two younger children are in this city attending school. — Bastl Lockwood Acquitted. Basil Lockwood, the young colored man who rescued some of the clerks at the time of the Ford’s Theater disaster, was yester- day acquitted in Criminal Court No. 1 of } assaulting with intent to kill Edward Fick on the 5th of last month. James H. Rudd, alias Cotton Rudd, was acquitted in the same court of second offense of petit lar- ceny. In the case of James B. Ashton, col- ored, charged with carnal knowledge of 4 young colored girl, Judge McComas took the case from the jury after the girl had declared the charge unfounded. Judge McComas criticised the practice of some officers in attempting to make cases where the testimony does not warrant It. es Will of John S. McKenney. The will of the late John S.

Articles incorporating the “Monkey Club” have been filed by Charles Fuller, John Phelps and Robert Chase. The object of the club is to encourage literary and ath- letic pursuits. — Indastrial Schools and Labor. Prof. McAlister of Philadelphia lectured in the School of Ethics yesterday on ‘The Relation of Industrial Schools to the Labor Problem.” He gave a historical view of the industrial school and showed that nothing new had been introduced into in- dustrial training in this century. The in- dustrial training, he said, was included under four heads, industrial schools, trade schools,technical schools and manual train- ing schools. In the last was to be sought the greatest aid to the solution of the labor question. The combined training of hand, head an cye would not only shorten the term of apprenticeship, but would put the pupils trained into a position to make the most of their opportunities and bring their heads to the aid of their hands not only in their work, but in shaping the condi- tions under which they labor: Prof. Hailmann led the discussion on the topic and talked on kindergarten training and ethical aims of Froebel in his schools. —_— Death of Mr.Jamex McDermott. Mr. James McDermott, of the firm of Jokn McDermott & Bro., carriage builders, died about 9:30 o'clock last evening at his residence, 313 Missouri avenue. Death was dus to a kidney trouble, with which Mr. McDermott had been suffering since July last, and his demise was not unexpected. Mr. McDermott leaves a widow, but no children, his only child, Frank, having dted two years ago. The funeral will be held Saturday morning from St. Dominic's Charch. Interment is to be made in Mount Olivet cemetery. Mr. McDermott was born in this city seventy years ago, and has been engaged in the carriage building business all his life. He was a son of Michael McDermott, who established the well-known firm. Pliny, Tacitus and Juvenal. Prof. A. P. Montague lectured at All Souls’ Church last evening on ‘Three Makers of Post-Augustan Literature,” these three authors being Pliny, Tacitus and Ju- venal. The lecture gave a graphic idea of the age in which these men lived, and a clear picture of their surroundings and their achievements. Sossondonteesecsontonteege DARING POWDIER Absolutely Pure.

A preamble and resolutions were adopted setting forth that the action taken and speeches made at the Columbian meeting. “cannot be construed as otherwise than in- sulting to the judges who officiated at the last debate between the debating societies of the law departments of Columbian and_ Georgetown universities—which action would in future operate to prevent self-re- specting men from acting as judges—and to the faculty, debaters and students of the latter university,” and declaring “That the Debating Society of the Law Department of Georgetown University, in meeting as- sembled, hereby repudiates the charges and insinuations made against the board of judges, selected by the joint committee from both universities, in whose integrity and uprightness it has full confidence; that, in view of the unwarranted and uncalled- for action of both faculty and students of Columbian University, this society hereby declares its absolute refusal to enter into any further contests with the Debating So- clety of Columbian University.” Beecham’s Pills are for biliousness, bilious lhead= ache, dyspepsia, heartburn, torpid liver, dizziness, sick headache, bad taste in the mouth, coated tongue, loss of appetite, sallow skin, etc., when caused by constipa- tion; and constipation is the most frequent cause of all of them.
