pardoned before being sent to state prison,
was before Judge Mills today, charged with tho
larceny of two hounds belonging to a son of
Mr. August Donath. The dogs were left in q
cellar night before last and yesterday morning
they had disappeared. 1t was evident that
some ono had opened the door leading to the

OF safekeeping. Pleasant White had been seen
with the dogs, and when the theft was reported
to tie police he was arrested He claimed that
the dogs followed him home. Officers Heide
and Dean told OF the prisoner q
previous penitentiary sentence, but the
latter said he had never been
in states prison Lavyey Moss, who defended
him at that time, told the court about the con-
vlction and pardon and Lawyer Pcyton, who de-
Tended White today. said he had known his
client ever since he was "knee high 10 a duck, ~
and then said what he could ir his behalf.
Judge Mills lectured White for trying to de-
celve the court concerning his former arrest
and fined him $50 or ~ days.

The Veterans of 1861.

The District veterans OF 1861 met last night
at st. Georges Hall, Mr.. J. Bradbury prcsld-
ing, and l.. F. Clements, secretary. There was
a large attendance and the meeting was an in
teresting one. The veterans gave a number OF
"reminiscences, and discussed the prospects Of
the 800 bounty bill The opinion was ex-
pressed that the pension bill endangered the
passage of the bounty bill. but many present
urged that it was their duty to use all honor
able means to secure the passage Of the BILL
although it would be in the nature of recog-
milton for their services merely, as in many in
stances the amount would not more than pay
the cost OF the uniforms paid for by the volun-
teers themselves and worn out in the service.
