PAID FOR PLAYING POLICEMAN.-William
c. Doolcy, country boy from Albemarle,
Va. came to the city yesterday and offered
for sale Il valuable medallion. 1t contains
a portrait of lady, painted on porcelain,
and Il lock 0: hair set in heavy gold, very
handsomely wrought. and is evidently an
cid family relic. DooIey said that he
bought it from colored boy, who said that
he found it. Dooley, while searching for
PM chaser, met an awninS-makcr,
named William King, on the street,
and asked bin il he wanted to buy the
medallion. King asked to see it, and when
he cot it he put it in his pocket and told
Dooley to consider himself under arrest, as
he was an officer. The pair started for 4
magistrates office, and on the way hlnS
said: "I'll give YOU nice overcoat Tor TINS
thing and let you CO." Doo!ey suspected
that his captor had no authority to make the
arrest, and as they ran across Oflcer har-
low he stated the case to him. The result
was that Harlow placed King under arrest
and DooIcy was released. King was locked
M for hearing in the Police Court on the
charge Of stealing the medallion from Doo-
lev Washington Republican.
