BEFORE TII 4 MAYOR.
what 1t Costs TO strike Little
Girl--A Number Of Children AZ

"ttHbB4GSs
There was several cases before the
Mayor on Saturday evening and Sun.
day morning, the former being of al
interesting character. Kate Callahan
a white girl, between IA and Ii years OF
age, was arraigned on the charge OF
malicious mischief, preferred by Jesse
Bingham. 1t appeared from the tes-
tlmony that Kate had been in the habit
of going into row of houses at Fifth
and Monroe streets, being built by Mr..
Bingham, taking wood ard lumber
thereirom and, when told to desist,
talked in an improper manner to Mr..
Bingham. she was held in the sum of
500 bail to keep the peace, and relnir-
ed to pay the cost of the case.
Miller Hudson, a little boy about 9
years Of age, and accompanied by hls
mother, was arraigned on the charge
Of striking Ella May Reed, n little girl
about the same age. Several small
children testified in the case, and a
wordy contest between Mrs. Hudson
and Mrs, Reed was entered into in re-
gard to the merits of their children,
which was promptly checked by the
Mayor before it assumed serious pro-
portions. Two small boys testified for
the defence, one of them Wilbur Har-
mon, testified that he was the one who
upset Ella, because she slapped him in
the face, "and don't low no girl to do
that to me-" said Wilbur, very val
iantly. He testified, however, that
Miller struck the girl, whereupon. the
Mayor required him to pay the costs of
the case ard to give 500 bond to keep
the peace.
A small ro!ored lad, was also charged
with Kicking little white girl about
six years old, injuring her severely
He was required to furnish 500
peace bond and pay the costs OF the
case.
Ella Platter, a colored dalnsel, was
charged by Rachel Ewing, colored, with
an assault and battery. They both live
on SearIs street, between Second and
Third, and had few words about their
children. When Ella threatened to cut
her head with an axe, whereupon they
clinched, tachG succeeding in
wrenching the axe away from her, but
Ella was not to he ontjOne so easy, so
She picked up a shovel and let her op-
poueut have it, which cut large cash
on her lead. Tie Mayor imposed il tine
of s. and costs and held her in 800 to
keep the peace.
One drunk, with the usual penalty,
concluded the hearings on Saturday
night.
On Sunday morning James Collins
was fined s. aud costs, for being drunk
and dlsorderly Benjamin Walker and
thoda c. Turner, were fined 81 and costs
each for fighting in the street; Elijah
Benson s. and costs for being drunk
and disorlelly, and three cases of
drunkenness, 50 cents and costs, con-
clu led the hearings of YESTERDAY, the
docket being empty in the evening.
This mornings cases are to follow.
