Judge Whitaker Reads a Healthy
Lecture to the Police.
BY referring to our court columns 1t will be
seen that the motion for q new trial In the
case Of Sergeant Jerry Donovan, convicted OF
false imprisonment, was overruled and the
accused sentenced toa fine OF 81, or imprison-
ment for one hour In the Parish Prison.
Judge Whitaker, in giving the sentence, read
the following opinion:
In imposing the sentence OF the law In this
case the court Is disposed to be lenient, for
two reasons: First, because the evidence es-
tablished the fact that you knew nothing OF Of
the accused, when you arrested him, and
could not have been actuated by malice; and
second, because, In making the arrest, you
acted In accordance with the instructions Of
Nevertheless, you have been guilty of the
offense OF falsely imprisoning a citizen, and
the authority Of superior officer cannot re-
ileve you from the responsibility attaching to
for you that you were placed in the. dilemma
OF being compelled to dlsobey orders or to
violate the law; the law is not at fault, and 1t
must be vindieated.
City Ordinance No. 5o4s, popnlarIy known
with benefit to the community. 1t can be In
terpreted 80 as to make It's provisions consti-
tutional, and 1t Is proper for the courts 50 10
interpret 1t, rather than to give lit b meaning
which could render 1t void. In the recent
habeas corpus ease Of Duffy, who was com
mitted under this ordinance the Chief Justice
appears to have followed this rule.
1t is q violation OF sacred right, secured
by the constitution, to arrest peaceable,
law..abiding citizen for merely standing upon
the baDquette while attending to legitimate
business, waiting for street car or saluting
friend, and not obstrueting the passage OF
pedestrians.
Such an arrest would be s'unreasonable'' in
the language Of the constitution o.
title |. That instrument secures all persons
from such q vi ,lation Of their rights, and
such an arrest was made by you.
The prosecuting witness was imprisoned
because he refused to "move on" and stand
ing alone, out OF the way Of passengers,
against the wall OF q shop, away from Its
doors and windows, waiting for street car,
and In the peace OF the State.
To dtsperse q disorderly crowd, habitual
loungers persons obstructing the banquette,
or the windows or doors OF shops, or other
wise creating nuisarce is a legitimate exer-
else Of police authority. Should persons so
offending refuse to move on, they should be
arrested and punished, and this ordinance,
providing therefor. has proved effieacious to
this end. II 1t fs enforced with discretion In
the future 1t will undoubtedly continue very
useful.

valuable historic relic In the form of
the complete skeleton of whale sixty
feet long has been found, we'll preserv.

that the skeleton was found imbedded
in sand hill which has been covered
with an extensive forest "from time
whereof the memory Of man runneth
not to the contrary" The sand of
this hill, being recently changed 10y

gradually removed from the place
where the remains of this ancient
monster OF the deep must have been
reposing for hundreds, yea thousands
Of years Another circumstance, be-
sides the fact that large trees of slow
growth are directly over the skeleton.
