A CROWDED DOCK TODAY Mondey Morning fosnes in the Police Court. Wisdom From the Sench—Some Who Will Not Be Out for the Election. In anticipation of party victories tomor- row some of the alleged street corner poll- ticians filled up with bad whisky Saturday night and yesterdey. They talked of bets, and thousands of dollars to them were no more then a dime to a street urchin. Yet many of them tomorrow night instead of listening to the election returns will be resting behind the bars on the farm. Tke arrests since Saturiay numbered Something like half a hundred, and three dozen of the victims were in the Police Court this morning, some of them having been released on collateral. One of these individuals was a boy whose name was given as Jacob Riggs, whom the evidence showed is deaf and his mind is not alto- gether right. “I desire to plead guilty for him,” said Policeman O'Neill. ‘He was a little tight yesterday and I gucss he was profane. But, your honor, he is deaf and I think his mind is affected. “One of the ofilcers speaks a good word for the boy,” said Officer Morgan, who had arrested him. “He is not exactly right, for when called as a witness in a liquor case last week Judge Miller would not take his testimony.” The boy’s mother was in court to look after lim and tears trickled down her cheeks as she pleaded his cause. “He ain’t right,” she said, “and I hope you will excuse nim this time.” “I will,” said the judge, “but this boy is too young to be drinking liquor.” Simply Made a Loud Noise. Policeman F. Owens had in court a small colored boy, not more than ten years old, and entered a complaint against him be- cause he had made a little more nofse on the street than the officer thought he should have made. The little boy had been locked up over night, and thrown in with full-grown men who were old in crime. This was the boy’s first experience in criminal circles. “He was playing cn S street,” was what tke officer stated, ‘‘and made a loud noise.” There was no bad language used, and when Judge Kimball learned of the boy’s experience in a police cell he released him. George Sprague, a colored boy, was in the Procession because of trouble he had in an cyster saloon last night. “I went in to get some fried oysters,” said the boy, “and because I owed the man 35 cents he refused to give the oysters, and choked me.” “But,” said the judge, “that was no ex- cuse for your profanity.’ . “I know it wasn’t,” said the boy, “but when a fellow logs 10 cents it’s enough to make him say d—.” “Five dollars.” John Coffey, a marine, who appeared to be under the influence of liquor when he got on a cable car last night. lost his hat, and then asked the conductor to stop the car. A discussion between them followed, and @ policeman who was called arrested Uncle Sam’s soldier on a charge of disorderly conduct. A fine of $10 was imposed, and the ma- rine stepped back. Fined for Wasting Water. Judge Kimball compelled a citizen named Lewis L. Wise to pay $10 on a charge of wasting Potomac water. There was no un- usual waste of the water. but Mr. Wise had promised to substitute a spring valve for an old-fashioned one in his place, and had not done so. His excuse was that his landlord had not made the improvement, and would Rot let him make it. “He was drunk and abusive and used the vilest language I°ever heard,” said Police- man Parham when a colored man named Charles Gaines was put on trial. “And,” the officer added. “he was disorderly all the way to the station.” “I was drunk,” said Gaines, “but I don’t remember making so much trouble.” “You are not calculated. to know much about what happens when you are under the influence of liquor,” the court sa!d, and the usual fine was imposed. A Georgetown Talker. Jim Moody represented Georgetown in the procession, and the charge against him was loud and profane language on the bridge. “I wasn't profane, didn’t talk very loud.’ “He was so drunk.” said a witness, he didn’t know what he was sayin: It appeared in evidence that Jim met a female acquaintance and wanted to talk to her, and this was the occasion of his bad conduct. ~ Judge Kimball charged him $5 for his bad conduct, but as he was out of funds the Lill stands against him or the books. The complaint against Fred. Jones was of a trivial nature, and the small {ne of $1 was imposed. : William Henry Thomas, a quiet-looking colored boy, whose head was cut, and whose ear had been disfigured with a brick, was in the line with John Robinson, a com- panion, and the sentence of the court was virtually one of uine and thirty. The ‘tittle boys were playing marbles in a South Washington alley, where more serious offenses are little noticed. They were unable to end their game without trcuble, and the police arrested them. Let Off to Be Whipped. “Who is here to look after these boys?’ Judge Kimball asked. “I’m here,” answered John’s mother, “and I'm going to give him a good, sound whipping when I get him home, too.” “That's just what ought to be done,” said the judge. : “I would have whipped him yesterday,” said the mother, “but he was locked up, and I couldn't get him.” “If you are going to whip him,” said the judge, “I'll let you take him home. And row, where is William's mother?” “She's home,” answered William. “Then I'li hold you until tomorrow, and if your mother will take you home and whip you I'll let her have you.” ‘The boy knew only too well that his mcether would do it, and in anticipation of what he is going to get he shed a few tears. Prosecutor Pvgh called the case of Henry Taylor, colored, for keeping an alleged un- Jicensed bar. Taylor's place on 8th street exterded was raided yesterday, and several cases of beer and a good supply of stronger liqcors were found. Lawyer Carrington, for the defendant, de- manded a jury trial, and the case went over. Amanda Lewis’ pet dog was the cause of a court case today. Stephen McFarland, her neighbor, was charged in the case. “He called me a d— dog,” was her charge. “And he says he did not say It,’ nis coun- sel said. “It’s a family affair, anyhow.” The proof was that the affair was a back yard squabble,in which no one other than the participants were interested, and the young man was discharged. Disturbed a Mission Meeting. Thomas Gandy, a youth with rosy cheeks and hair a few shades darker, visited a mis- sion ‘on 13th street in the “Division” last night, and, with his companions, he was disorderly. “They always prove a disturbing element,” said one of the mission workers, “and last night when they went out they invited me out to fight.” The mission worker asked Judge Kimball to release the boy on his personal bonds. “I want an example made of him, but I don’t want him sent to jail,” said the mis- sion man, “for I think that is not the place for him.” “It 1s the place for people who disturb meetings of this kind,” said the judge, ‘‘and when they are brought here they must ex- pect to go to the workhouse.” ‘The evidence showed that when the meet- ing was over this boy and others had sticks to use on the young man who had put them out. “I am going to protect all religious gather- ings from such troubles,” said the court, “and it matters not whe@er they are in churches, alleys or in tent: A fine of $5 was !mposed. John Price, a stranger who was found sleeping under a tree on a vacant lot last night, was sent down for a month as a vagrant. said Jim, “and I “that MISS POOK’S CASE. Her Father Hopes Soon to Have Her at Home Again. There are practically no new develop- ments today in the case of Miss Pook, the daughter of Chief Naval Constructor S. N. Pcok, retired, who was arraigned in a police court in New York last Friday as being in- sane. Miss Pook had left Washington in order to be with a young man named Henry Brandon. with whom she is said to be in- fatuatei. It was alleged that she was suf- fer:ng under the hallucination that her role in life was to prevent the young man from ccmmitting suicide, and the charge against her was brought by her brother-in-law, Mr. G. P. Frothingham of this city, for the sake of having her committed, that she might be brought back to her parents in this city. Miss Pook left her boarding house on East 60th street, New York, some time Sat- urday, and it was said that her where- abouts were unknown. Her father re- czived word from New York this morning ving ‘her present address, and was busily engaged today trying to find some way of getting her back. Mr. Frothingham_ re- turned to the city Saturday, but brought no satisfactory news. Capt. Pook said to a Star reporter this morning that he was sat- isfied his daughter is not in her right mind. This wes the most charitable construction to put on her recent actions. “We deepiy regret the publicity which the case has attracted,” continued Capt. Pook. “It was our hope that the hear:ng would be a private one, and that we could have got our daughter back without the story get- ting in the papers. This would have hap- pened but for the stupidity of the man who made the arrest. Mr. Frothingham was within call of the court, and if he had been summoned, I am sure she would have been committed, and we should now have her | back again. But he was not apprised of her arrest, and the result was that she was dismissed, and all our labors went for noth- ing. She was to have gone to court and back again in a carriagé, and the judge had promised a private hearing. However, we hope to have her back soon again, and 1 trust ‘that you will say as little about the case in The Star as is possible.” ——— NO RIFLES FOR MARYLAND. The Union Republican Club Condemn the Sugsestion. A very full meeting of the executive com- mittee of the Union Republican Club was held Wednesday last for the consideration of various important matters. The com- mittee, after a full discussion, adopted a resolution as expressive of the sentiments of the members of the club—that, “while we, as members of the republican party, are pledged to the supreme and sovereizn right of every lawful citizen, rich or poor, rative or foreign-born, white or black, to cast one free bullot in public elections, and to have that ballot duly counted, we pur- pose in the future, as in the past, to de- pend upon the lawful authorities of each state to maintain the purity of the ballot box, and hav2 no inclination or wish or sympathy with rifle or other practices not in accordance with statute laws. AMUSEMENTS. Boston Symphony Orchestra.—The in- terest which is being manifested in the com- ing season of the Boston Symphony Orches- tra is universal among those who delight in good music in this city. At every appear- ance of the orchestra in this city there has been apparent this selfsame interest and ap- preciation that has stimulated the aggrega- tion to its best efforts, and has made a last- ing impression upon the minds of those who would cry down Washington’s musical taste. There have been forty-two concerts vy the Boston Symphony Orchestra in this city from the first one, held in Congregational Church, to the season which is just about to open at Metzerott Hall. The first concert was on the 13th of April, 1886, when the or- ganization came here under the leadership of Herr Gericke. Since that time there has been a never-ceasing, unwavering devotion to the organization, until the present sea- son bids fair to outstrip all others in both a musical and a financial way. The music lovers of this city have seen a number of different conductors, and it is a hard matter to say which has been the most popular. Gericke and Nikisch had their followers, but the present leader, Mr. Emil Paur, seems to be just as much at home as any of his pre- decessors in his visits to this city. The his- tory of the Boston Symphory Orchestra ts also a history of the development of the musical taste of Washington. From a soli- tary concert during the long season, the de- mand has made possible a series cf concerts during the same season, 2ne cvery month, and it is due to the efforts of the orchestra more than any other outside agency that this effect has been brought about. Some of the most prominent solvists of the time in every branch of musical art have appeared here with the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the list is notable in more than one re- spect. There is no other musical organiza- tion in the western hemisphere that can compete with this orchestra in any way, and Washingtonians are fully alive to its merits and the appreciation which is due to it. The sale of seats for this season will commence tomorrow morning at Metzerott's. Amateur Minstrels for Chzrity.—_The Car- roll Institute Minstrel Company will appear at the Lafayette Square Theater Saturday evening next for the benefit of the Found- ling Hospital, under the auspices of the ladies of the Pierce Guild.

The company will be augmented by the ap- pearance of one or two teams from local talent, which will fill in the specialty line.

ECHO MEETING. The Purposes of the Luther League and Its Enlarging Work. At the Church of the Reformation, Penn- sylvania avenue and 2d street southeast, Rev. W. E. Parson, D. D., pastor, last even- ing, there was held an echo meeting of the national convention of the Luther League of America, recently held at Pittsburg. The speakers were Revs. H. L. Baugher, D. D., and M. W. Hamma, D. D., and Messrs. A. J. D. Wedemeyer of Liberty, N. Y., and Cor- nelius Eckhardt of this city. Mr. Wedemeyer, the first speaker, told of the origin of the Luther League, in the cr- ganization of the first Martin Luther Society in New York city, and the erection of the statue of Martin Luther in this city, ever ten years ago. From this society and the Statue Association sprung the numerous so- cieties of the Luther League of America. Dr. Hamma spoke of the efforts recently made, and the adoption of resolutions by three of the principal bodies of the church looking toward closer union and co-opera- tion in the work of the church, He stated also that the Luther League of America had become a very important factor in this ef- fort, and their work entirely along church Unes and under the direction of the church. Mr. Eckhardt reviewed the program 2s rendered at Pittsburg, noting particularly the speakers and their subjects, as also the services on each occasion, and giving. im- pressions from a layman's standpoint. He told of the representation of twenty states and the District of Columbia, embracing so- cleties of every name and Lutherans of every tongue, regardlessvof synodical rela- tion. Dr. Baugher told of the great enthusiasm displayed on the part of'all present, the earnestness of the delegates in tran the busiress and the intentness with every word was listened: to by all present. He pointed out a number of good things to be accomplished by thisenew organization, and demonstrated the faetivery clearly that the greatest success must:come from cfforts to do good to otners. There was a good-sized: audience present, and the choir of the chureb rendered several selections appropriate to the occasion. seinen pita AMONG THE WORKIANGMEN.

The annoircement was made at the meet- ing of Cigar Makers’ Union Saturday right that a cigar making firm in Baltimore is selling its goods in Washington- under a bogus blue label, which is the distinctive mark of the union, and steps were taken which it is hoped will result in shutting the alleged bogus goods out of this market. » The committee appointed a few weeks ago to visit the various cigar stores in Washington and ascertain which were and which were not selling union-made cigars submitted a report, which stated that since the committee began its active work the number of stores where union-made cigars are kept has largely increased.

Hawkes, consulting physician during the last illness of the testator, was the first wit- ness, and he testified that at the time the will was made Mr. Young, in the opinion of witness, was of sound and disposing mind. Dr. Hawkes was followed by Mrs. Mar- garet Adams of 312 14th street southwest, whe stated that she waited on James E. Young and provided his meals for him dur- ing the sickness which resulted in death. Mrs. Adams, according to her statement, was almost constantly with Mr. Young, and she considered him of sound mind. Testi- mony to the same effect was given by Mrs, Croghan, a professional nurse, and recess was then taken. It was inadvertently stated in The Star ‘Thursday last that the will of the late James E. Young, now contested, contained a be- quest of $5,000 to the First Presbyterian Church of this city. In reality the provision referred to was made by the late John M. Young, a brother and beneficiary of James E., in his will dated June 29, 1894. At the conclusion of the present hearing it is un- derstood that a contest is to be made on the will of John M. Young.

Whatever impurities the blood does hot carry away cause what we call disease. ‘Therefore, for Catarrh inhalants, snuffs and other local applica- tions can give only temporary relief. The true way to cnre Is to purify your blood by taking a constitutional remedy like Hood's Sarsaparilla, which elitinates all impurities and thus permanently cures catarrh.
