A WARNING TO CAB DRIvERs.-Frank john
son, young man who has been driving a cab
for the past twelve months, was arraigned in
the Police Court this morning on a charge of
overcharging Louisa Marshall colored. His
counsel pleaded not guilty. Complainant
testified that several nights ago she employed
depot to drive her to No. 637 L street north
west. He charged her so cents. She gave him
a dollar and he handed her the change, which
turned out to be meal check from Johns
restaurant, 80 that she really paid him 81 for
the trip. Hack Inspector Quinlan testified that
the legal fare for the trip was only rs cents,
and exhibited the card Of rates to the court.
Officer Lamb testified to the arrest of the
defendant, who admitted being the driver
engaged by Miss Marshall. The defendant
admitted that he charged fifty cents. He said
that he made the charge before he took the
job, because he did not care to lose his place
on the stand for twenty-five cents. He did not
remember having had the check. The court
imposed fine of IS and ordered the driver to
refund Miss Marshall seventy-fve cents.

An Outrage in Barbed Wire.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
Some months ago double barrier of barbed-
wire fence was stretched across 10th street, at
the crest of the hill just beyond the boundary.
This barrier prevents persons from passing to
the west of the iron standpipe, which has been
thoroughfare for years, and forces all passers-
by to drive to the east, where there is barely
room for single carriage track, and where
passing over the sod has already made a dis
agreeable slough. l presume that the
portion fenced has been enclosed to
establish some private claim to the
land, but 1t seems if a concession of this
claim on the part of the commissioners might
be made in such a manner as to justify the
owner in removing the wires, since he can
scarcely intend to practice agriculture this win
ter on macadamized road-bed, and the pub
lie is seriously Inconvenience by the present
arrangement which has practically closed the
street. If the barrier must stay it's proprietor
should be required to remove his Instruments
of torture, and substitute fence, which will at
least be harmless to passers-by. Even on moon
light nights the wires are invisible, and in dark
or stormy weather serious accidents are likely
to happen. Although rarely pass in that d.
rectiOn, know of at least three instances in
which persons and horses have received painful
cuts from the sharp points of the ''hog-wire,"
There are many "outrages in barbed wire" in
and about Washington, but this is the most OBJ

THE SIGHTS OF NEW YORK
NOT THE BIG THINGS MENTIONED
IN GUIDE BOOKS,

But the Every Day Life of the People
as Observed III Days Tramp
Through the Metropolis-WhatC Can
Be Seen by the Searcher After the
Curious.
New YORK, Jan. 14.-The thoroughbred
cockney is as green as grass about the dens
and the denizens of those great outreaching
townships which far eclipse the sights" of
London in interest and wonderment, 1t is
much the same with the average resident in
all great cities and the native New Yorker
Is generally content to limit his personal
acquaintance of his Babel city to the safe
and respectable middle area, bounded, say,
Inv the park on the north, the post Office on
the south, and Third to Eighth avenues east
and west The show places of the guide
hooks must be seen, of course, and are well
worth seeing, but the real sights, the true
portrait of the actual New York, must be
looked for behind the scenes and between
the sights" The physiognomy of New
York is more and more fascinating, astound-
ing and puzzling the more you look not sim
nIV at but into it. And there is no recrea-
tion so celebrating, no combined bodily and
mental exercise so calculated TO brace up
haccid muscles and put tone into the jaded
brain than real good days tramp over
New York. You enjoy the charm of ex-
ploration, with perhaps bit of adventure
bv way of spice, and you combine the healthy
exercise of all the system with the mild but
real excitement of going through a constant
change of scene. For myself | am a strong
advocate of city tramping as a wholeSomer
constitutional than the regulation
s.change of scenen to dismal village or a
sleepy seaside resort.
Let us have day S outing in New York.
We have breakfasted early and start with
a turn through Central Park. We soon be-
gin to experience the ups and downs of life
as we climb its tempting boulders in the
vain hope OF getting fair view of its roll
ing landscape charms, and then a dive
down into it's lovely fairy glens, mirroring
the wintry branches in the placid lake be-
low. We can't get long sweeping view,
because the surface is so upheaven, but the
endless succession of mimic mountain and
valley scenes lift us right out of the brick
and mortar brownstone and marble world
that lies outside OF the famous parks of
the Old World and New this is one of the
most wonderful and charming. Its two
and-a-halt miles of length and half-mile
width inclose $40 acres of as diversified
parkland as landscape lovers could wish and
we tramps will get tired too soon for our
davis work if we don't cut short our explo-
ration OF It's % mics Ol looJpdUuS anu 10 Vi
drive ami bride roads. We give the go by
to it's boats, its wild beast show, its play
grounds, strawberries, restaurants and stay
not in rapt delight at its inky rows of stat
ues, for there is pain in the contemplation
of Burns with the crick in his neck, and
poor Shakespeare with the legs of Steele
Mackaye shivering in the biting January
blast All, here's statue instinct with life,
still life indeed, but if we shout who
dubbed the catl' that lay equestrian figure

We stroll up Broadway to Park row and
thread our rough-and- way through
the crowds that stand reading tine bulletins
of the evening papers, a scene of hustle and
brisk struggling that would galVanize a
moribund philosopher into circus gym
mast for the time being. Lucky as usual
we just escape being scalded by that blind
ing escape of steam from the grating in the
middle of Broadway, at Chambers street.
By the time we get to Lafayette place TO
look at the imposing Devinne printing
house, and at the new official home of the
Bishop, and take peep inside the Aston
Library, it is closing time, so that we wind
up our days travel with as smart a quick
step as we can manage across Broadway
into the lady's land of shops, through Union
square, then Madison square, until we reach
the end of our toll and the beginning of our
joyful acknowledgements.
Since we started out at s a. m, we have
walked just twelve miles, besides our rides,

cratic caucus one night when he was on top
of the heap here, but, having been intoxi-
Gated with the exuberance of his own YER
bosty or something else, he was unable TO
stnv till the end. After he had left the de-
bate ran along without result till the two
sides agreed that Campbell, of Ohio, should
draw up a proposition such as his side could
support, and that Alexander Stephens
should draw up a proposition such as his
side could support, and that then they
should leave it 'Toombs to say which should
be adopted as the caucus resolution. 80
Campbell wrote out his statement and
stephens wrote out his, and the next morn
ing the Secretary OF the caucus carried both
IN Toombs. Toombs was not quite ready
for business yet, so when the Secretary told
him that the caucus had determined to leave

about to read the conflicting statements 70

The day is done, and in their coy nest
The rosy darngS lie IN perfect rest,
Their shining treSses softly straying DER
Those dhnpled cheeks, that we may kiss once
more
Before we go; but let the kiss be light
Good night sweet slumbererS!
Good night Good night
Anon we see a smile all gently play
Ger a sweet face, then slowly die away
The little brain with fairy fancies teens,
A nd Flossie wanders in the land of dreams;
There she will wander till nights shadows flee.
Good night my little one,
God guardeth thee!
She sees serener sunlight, fairer flowers,
And bluer skies than grace this world of ours,
AS down the silent slopes of shadowland
Again she guides her hoop with eager hand,
Or may mythic butterfly pursue,
Good night, my pretty onel
Till morn, adieu
