INSTRUMENTATION,
A Good-LOoking White Woman
With a Negro Husband.

James Robinson, cOlored. was fined
$40 in poll ce court yesterday ON the
charge of threatening to shoot another
colored man, Henry Collins. The
trouble arose over bet made by the
two men, Robinson losing some money
on wager that Collins would not be
admitted to the Dime Museum in COM
pany with awhile woman. Robinson
thought he had been buncoed out of the
money, and was going to collect it a {
the point of pistol. He is known.
among his people as ''bad coon." and
it took Officer Mealey, who made the
arrest, some time to find any one who
would point out Robinson to him. The
most interesting feature of the case
came. however, after Robinson had
been locked up in default of the fine.
A pretty white girl about nineteen
years of age came to the lock up, ascer-
tanned the amount of Robinson's fne
and went out to raise the money, telling
Lieut.. Nelson that she was the wife of
the prisoner. She returned soon after,
paid the fine and the Unmatched pair
departed, evidently in a very happy
mood

Health Precautions.

At the meeting of the board of health
yesterday morning case which has
been agitating the residents near 1914
Fourth avenue south, was taken up and
considered at some length. 1t appears
that there was diphtheria in the family
of Samuel Adams, residing at that
place, and the health department put
up warning cards. The child got well,
and the cards were taken down by some
one now unknown. A second case of
diphtheria occurred in the house, and
another warning card was put up, but
this was also torn down without author
ity. The child affected died, and the
family insist upon a public funeral.
Health Officer Kilvington says he will
endeayor to make the parents have the
funeral a private one.
