The usual monotony Of the Police Court was
broken Thursday by a pleasing little dvertlse-
ment. The assistant District Attorney, bfr. G. S.
Moore,was engaged in prosecuting u case for grand
larceny in which an eminent lawyer not unknown
TO fame and an eX.assistant District Attorney,
Mr. H. H. Wells appeared for the defense.
owing to the non-nppearance of principal
witness for the Government Mr.. Moore
asked Judge Smell to continue the case
until next Tuesday. Mr.. Wells opposed the mo-
ton, and stated thnt as he was fully prepared to
prove his clients innocence itwould be great in
Justice to him to be confined In jail for nearly
week. Mr.. Moore said he had no doubt that Mr..
Wells could prove his clients innocence yet he in
sisted OH the continuance and yet, if he remem-
bercd rightly. when Mr. Wells occupied his (Mr.
Moores) present position he held different views on
the rights Of a prisoner being tried. Mr. Guy
Thompson, another lawyer not unknown to
fame, was sitting near, and added, soto
rOce, "Ses; and when you were assistant
prosecuting attorney you were not nearly as ac-
commodating as Mr.. Moore is" Mr.. Wells turned
sharply round, and, in q loud tone, wanted to
know what had Just been said. Judge Smell
sharply raped on the desk and said he would
have both lawyers taken into custody. Mr.. Moore
remarked that he would take great pleasure in
prosecuting both of them. The case was continued
and the belligerents went down the court shaking
their fists OF one another. When Mr.. Moore had
got his books together he went to his office in the
Police Court and found the contestants there, sur
rounded by group of admiring friends, "Genlle-
men, said Mr.. Moore, 81 pitch in nll you please
but you'll have to take change of rcHN and fight
somewhere else" At last accounts no blood had
been spilled.
