Police Court.

THE PHASES OF DIssOLUTE HUMANITY
PRESENTED AT LAST NIGHTS SESSION.
When Mayor Almond started the
ball at the police court last evening,
Chief Maxwell ordered Charles Finne-
gan to be brought out from cell No. 8.
In response little round headed man,
with twinkling dark eyes, and no shoes
on, was placed In the dock, and officer
Carey testified that Charles was one of a
gang of "bums," who were in the habit
of loafing along Water street, full of bad
whiskey all the time. The usual penalty
was imposed.
A man with matted black hair and
wild.looking dark eyes, was next ushered
trto the dock, and uttered cordial
"thank yon" to officer Robinson, as that
official escorted him TO the bar of justice.
He said his name was Joel Dawson, and
officer Carey, who arrested him, said he
had been requested to do 30 by Dawson's
wife, who wanted him locked up until he
got sober, as he was very abusive when
drunk. The officer said Dawsons wife
had given him horse blanket, which
she saic her husband had stolen. He
brought the blanket to the hall, but had
heard no inquiry for 1t.
Dawson commenced to make a GAR
rulous plea for mercy, but the Mayor
ordered him to be committed TO jail for
thirty days.
Lewis Jeandell, rough lousy looking
fisherman, with sore nose, was ordered
to be committed to Jail for thirty days,
for vagrancy. Several years ago Lewis
was respectable, hard working man.
He supported his mother and sister in
decent style, but unfortunately they
both died, since which time he has been
"going to the dogs" at rapid rate.

He Fell AnsOmg Thieves.

Five rough looking characters named
Charles Coffin, Thomas Cundy, William
johnson, Joel Danson and Charles
Adams were put in the dock at police
court, this morning, on the charge of
robbing an inoflensive man, named Chas.
Finnegan, as he was lying drunk in a
pot shed, on Thorn street, yesterday af-
ternoon. Officers Briekel, Dolan and
Carey arrested the men, having seen
them running away from the shed. The
man testified that he was so much intox-
lcated that he could recognize none of
the prisoners the secret was that he did
not want to know them. A lad who told
the officers said be saw them all around
the man, drinking out of bottle, and
finally all went through the mans pock-
cts. Two of the men, who were loud
est in their declarations of innocence,
were shown to have been the worst ol
the lot. Charles Adams was held fol
court, for larceny, Joel Dawson was dis.
charged and the others we've committed
for yagrancy.

a Fatal accident.

A WORKMAN AT THE sT.'AUGUSTINE
PAPER MILLS CAUGHT BY A BELT
AND KILLED.
A sad and distressing fatal accident
occurred shortly after six o'clock last
evening at the st. Augustine paper mills,
on the Brandywine, the particulars of
which as far as can be ascertained at the
present are as follows:
Hugh McCarron, who has been en-
ployed at the mill for some time, had
Just been paid off, and was leaving the
building on his way home. In the mill
is one Of the largest belts in the country,
being six feet wide.
The wood casing which encloses the
belt for the purpose of preventing acci-
dents had been removed for the purpose
Of repairing the belt. AS Mr.. McCar-
ron approached the belt he was warned
Of the danger by the watchman, but be-
ing near-sighted he did not see his dan
ger, and before he could avert it, the
monster belt caught HIM about the
stomach, and gathering him up, hurled
him violently to the floor, mashing him
In terrible manner.
He was picked up, and, upon exami-
nation, 1t was found that he was still
living. Dr. Bullock was Immediately
summoned, but before he reached the
side of the unfortunate man he was dead.
The deceased is married and leaves q
family.

out to where the fugitive resided, and
succeeded in capturing him.

charged is forging the name of Joel
kirkland, IN July last, to check for

one in Camden and one here, with
whom he was residing at the time of hi.

special Correspondence OF the GAZETTE.
CHRIsTIANA, Del, Deco, 1879.
Mr.. James II. Smalley, a well known
and highly respected citizen ofthis plae',
seeins to be very much afflicted. With,
q week death has entered his residence
twice, and has carried away two of It's
highest ornaments, two lovely daughters.
On Saturday last he buried one of his
daughters aged about fifteen years, and
yesterday the only remaining one was
carried TO her last resting place. She
was seventeen years of age, and attended
the funeral of her sister on Saturday last.
They are buried side by side in the Pres
byterian church burying ground in this
place, and their graves are within sight,
and but few yards from their late home.
The wreath upon thegrave ofthe daugh-
ter that was buried ON Saturday last had
not yet withered, before another is plac-
cd beside it upon another grave. Both
of the deceased were very promising
young ladies' and were loved by all who
were fortunate enough to form abeir &C
quaintaDceship. Our citizens deeply
sympathize with the doubly afflicted
family, and what makes 1t more distress
ing Mrs. Smalley has not been able to
leave her bed room for the past eight
months. The cause of the two young
ladies' death was scarlet fever, which is
very prevalent at this place at the presen,
time, CHRIsTIANA.

The woman describes the miscreant as
