STOLEN AND DEyoURED BY A HUNGRY PRISONER
Robert Smith, the negro who was arrested
near the pension Office yesterday afternoon for
using profane and obscene language, was taken
to the Police Court this morning and tried.
The prisoner was called up from the cell, and
while waiting for his trial he was given seat
in the corridor leading from the cell to the
courtroom. On the window at the end of the
corridor Bailiff Kendig had placed his lunch
Smith had not had anything to eat since yes
terday, and while waiting behind the door he
ate the bailiff's lunch. Then he was brought
into court and tried. He was fined $40 or 80
days. As the bailiff ushered the prisoner to
the Cell he discovered the loss of his lunch
and he Immediately overhauled Smith. The
latter had devoured most of the lunch and only
had piece of bread left. He also took the
napkin and put it in his pocket The bailiff
did not like the idea Of having to go hungry,
and TO get even with the negro he COMPLAINED
to Prosecuting Attorney Shillington. who filed
an information charging Smith with the lar
ceny of the following articles:
lone fried turkey neck, cents; one piece of
limburger cheese. cents; two pieces OF bread,
cents, and one piece Of cake, 10 cents.'
The presence Of the limburger cheese. Il n
supposed is what assisted the negro in finding
the lunch, which he no doubt greatly enjoyed
to the discomfort of Bailiff Kendig. The latter
thought the matter over and understood that
the temptation was q great one, and for that
reason he consented TO have the case noble
pressed.

AN EXCITING ARREST.
A Furniture Dealer and His Wife
dubbed by a Policeman.

Some excitement was caused on It'll street,
between NJ and streets northwest, yesterday,
when Policeman Ferguson arrested Hiram
Spear, secondhand furniture dealer. Spear
was standing in front of his store when the po-
iceman stopped and told him to remove some
goods he had displayed on the sidewalk. Spear
said that he was not going to remove his goods
unless his neighbors were compelled to do so
too, and, according to the officers statement
made use of some vigorous language. where
upon the policeman grabbed Spear and placed
him under arrest. Spear broke loose and ran
into his store. The officer followed and a
scuffle ensued, during which furniture and
chinaware were scattered about the floor. The
officer and prisoner
FOUGHT THEIR WAY THROUGH THE STORE.
Spear had struck the officer with a shovel
and had thrown a washstand at him. The po-
liceman used his club, which glanced from Mr.
Spears head and descended upon the head of
his wife, making cut two or three inches long
During the melee the officers whistle fell to
the sidewalk and was picked up by small boy
who blew it several times, attracting Sergeant
Jones and Policeman Reilly, who assisted in
taking Spear to the station. He left $50 COL
lateral and was released.
MR.. SPEARS VERSION OF THE AFFAIR
is altogether different from that of the officer
He claims that the policeman ill-treated his
wife and he will probably swear out warrant
for the arrest of that officer. He alleges that
his wife received not one, but several blows on
the head from the baton, and her health being
bad, ne fears that the result of her injuries may
prove serious.
This morning, in the Police Court, Mr.. Cahill
appeared as Spears counsel, and at his request
the case was continued until next Tuesday.
