A Tough Lot of Customers Show Up in
the Police Court.
Most of the session of the Police Court
yesterday was consumed in the hearing OF
the case of R. Randall an old negro,
charged with being common drunkard.
Doctor" Curtis, the janitor of the City
Hall, unwilling that the old Virginian fam
lily name should be disgraced, exerted him
self to the utmost to free the old fellow of
the charge. He claimed he did this with
out compensation, but City Attorney
Church said he believed the Doctor was
coguizant OF the fact that election time was
approaching, and was making pull for
the colored vote, which would indirectly
keep him in his present office.
Randall was finally discharged, the Court
being inclined TO believe that getting drunk
on Christmas, New Years, ETC, did not
necessarily make one common drunkard
Patsy Connor was less fortunate than
Randall, and having been found guilty of
being common drunkard was sentenced
to 30 days in the County Jail. Patsy is an
everyday sort Of q drunk.
William Dugsn, booked for vagrancy,
made solemn promise never to drink
again and the Judge discharged him.

time past the ties belonging TO the railroad
company and piled no along the B,street
levee, from Sixteenth to Thirty-frst, have
been disappearing at a remarkably quick
rate, and tramps were suspected of using
them for firewood. The aforementioned
seven were caught camping in the brush in
that vicinity By the officers and brought
in. All OF them stated that they came
here with money, and the Court, recognize
ing that case could not be made out, dis
charged them, with the warning TO here
after use something besides railroad ties
with which TO make their fires.

Though q Man May Live Long In tn

Though Man May Live Long In the
Land He Is Never Done Learning.
The school of experience is often a
costly one, but 1t Is generally a
thorough one. Lessons learned from
experience are generally more lasting
ly and effectually impressed upon the
mind than those which are merely
theoretical, and young mans educa-
ton is never complete, or at least
never actually on the road to compile
hon, until he has studied in the varied
and ever expanding school of practi
cal experience. Theoretical education,
however thorough, however well
taught, can never fit man to begin q
practical business life with any assur-
ance of success, anywhere but at the
foundation Theory is undoubtedly
the foundation of all practical know1-
edge, but, without the actual practice
and experience, is of little value
This is fact which too many young
men at the present time ignore, and
which sooner or later proves their
ruin. They are wont to think that,
because they have passed successful
course at school or college, and have
mastered the theoretical problems,
they are fitted to enter upon the prac-
teal application of theory without
further study, and make a success of
their undertakings.
A mans education is never COM
plete, and those who have the sense to
see and acknowledge this are the ones
who VIII be most sure of becoming
successful. The longer man lives,
the more thoroughly he becomes inn

not wanting to warn any one against
pursuing such a course. And still
how futile seem the efforts of those
who are able to advise to impress
these facts upon the minds of those
younger in years, and who have never
learned from the school of experience.
The theoretical school is the one in
which the young mind should first be
taught, because it is then that 1t Is
more susceptible to such teachings,
and less able to profit by experience
requiring stronger physical develop
ments; but this mental training
should be supplemented by one COM
bining both the theoretical and the
practical. and it is in this that expe-
rience proves itself a most thorough
and able educator, and no young
mans education at the present time
should be considered complete until
he has been thus taught. Then, no
matter what conditions surround him,
whether he be the son of wealth or
heir to humber inheritance, he is,
at least, fitted to take his position in
life with knowledge of what life is,
and be able to provide for himself and
those who may be dependent upon
him for life's necessities. = Boston
