An Accusation, Arrest, Reconciliation and Happiness. Because of a lovers’ quarrel William Banf, @ South Washington resident, came near having to undergo the unpleasant expert- ence of spending some time in a police ceil. Miss Carrie Harris, who lives at 364 N street southwest, and who some day may partici- pate in services which will change her name to that of the young man's, is the fair one who caused him his trouble. She complained to the police that she had been robbed of three rings, but did not say anything about the lovers’ quarrel. Then she obtained a Warrant for him, charging that he had stolen the rings. This morning Detectives Carter and Gal- laher served the warrant on the young man, and Miss Harris was not far behind them when they reached the Police Court.
