False imprisonment.

In the City Circuit Court yesterday the
trial of the cause of Saunders vs. Kain
was begun.
In August last Saunders, who is a po-
hceman, reported Kahn for selling liquor
on Sunday. Kahn was tried in the Police
Court and acquitted. Kahn then applied
to Squire Barrett for warrant against
Saunders for perjury, which was refused.
He then applied to Police Justice Rich
ardson for warrant, who also refused.
He then went back to Squire Barrett, and
insisted upon having a warrant. The
warrant was issued accordingly.
Saunders was arrested and locked up
In a cell in the Third station-house until
bailed. In the Police Court Saunders
was honorably acquitted. He now sues
Kahn for $4,000 damages for false i'm
prisonment.

apartments.

little fellow, while engaged at this from
boat in front of his fathers residence, fell

a memory of the past worthy OF all praise,
swan to the boy, took the lapel OF his jacket
tenderly in his mouth, and swan with him TO
the shore. Then seeing that the led uas un-
conscious il ran up to the house and brought
the family down. 1t waited only long enough
to see tho boy resuscitated, and then went
away. The father has been looking ever
since for the fish to reward it.
Another singular case is that OF lady
who. walking on the banks Of the Bronx,

saw suspended in q tree small catfish
scarcely able to struggle, and beseeching
help. The lady climbed the tree released the
trembling fish, who appeared 10 have been
there about a week But how he got there IS
unexplainable unless he was thrown there by
some inhuman angler No sooner had the
little animal touched the ground than he
knelt at the lady's feet kissed the hem OF her
garments, and manifested the most extreme
Joy and gratitude, finally throwing himself
into the water amid profuse apologies for be
ing obliged to depart. And yet there are
people who say that FISH are incapable OF graft

For Sweet Charity's Sake.

Will not our various charitable associ-
ations make an effort, and begin early, so
so as to relieve the necessities Of the de-
serving poor? Street begging should be
stopped. Let it be known that no wor
thy poor person shall suffer for little
bread or fuel, and possibly the great nui-
sance of from door-to-door begging can
be stopped. The superintendent Of out
door charity should have funds at hand
for this purpose. 1t is hard that in a city
like Richmond, full of churches and
Christian people, that any one should be
suffering. 1t is hard to refuse to give
when appealed to, but there must be some
system, or the public will be imposed
upon. Let the Committee on Poor, or
some committee of citizens, take the mat
ter in hand. If proper effort is made, it
is certain that no one in Richmond who
deserves aid will suffer this winter.
