The Judge KnoWs Him.

young negro named Temple was before the
Police Court today charged, under the name Of
William Jones, with stealing two hams from
Walkers grocery store. The prisoner evidently
thought that his identity was not known and to
avoid investigation he plead guilty hoping to
get light sentence, but Judge Miller called
him by his right name and asked him if he had
been out Of prison for as much as ten days at
any one time during the past three years.
Yes, sir" replied Temple; Il have been oct
weeks of that time"
Il thought something of that kind must have
been the matter" said the judge. The only
way to keep you from stealing is to keep you
locked up. You can 60 back for six months"

The hands Of the clock in the first police
precinct station indicated the hour Of 3:45
o'clock this morning when Policeman Pat
Creagh entered the building with two prisoners
Both were well dressed and told the officer
that they were government clerks The charge
entered against them was petit larceny, and
the policemen say the men had in their posses
sion the goods they were charged with steal
ing, comprising two old door mats taken from
doors Of houses, an old clock and two cigar
signs. Their act was evidently the result OF q
frolic. What attracted the officers attention TO
them was the sound Of a musical instrument,
and the tune which one Of them was trying to
play was I'VE Won't Go Home Until Morning."
They were then near st. Pstrick's Church.

NEW COPYRIGHT LAW.


To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The subject Of copyright protection effects
the interests more or less Of every person In
civilized life.
Having just examined the new copyright bill
Oh. r. l0SS1), which has Just passed the House
and is now before the Senate, to see II II
heightened or shortened the term Of protection,
made it better or worse for authors Of this
country while extending the privilege to
foreigners, &C., am surprised to see that
IN its crude form it omits to specify any
length Of time whatever that the first
grant shall run! By the wording Of
the first section (sec. 1852, RS, as amended, }
the life Of the copyright is to be perpetual, a.
no limit is specified to its duration. This 10 in
accordance with a few other countries more
liberal to their authors than we have yet be-
come. But the next section says: THE author,
inventor or designer, if he be living, or his
widow or children if he be dead, shall have
the same exclusive right continued for q further
term Of fourteen years upon recording the
title &c, within six months before the expira-
ton Of the first term" When does the first
term" expire? The bill nowhere gives any
light upon this vital point
Again, would have supposed that the Con-
gress of a nation enjoying Christian enlighten-
ment and liberty would not in this age have
entirely ignored the rights Of all authors of the
feminine persuasion by not including her, her
children, nor even her widower in the privi-
leges Of this second term or extension, but
they have confined it to the author If he be still
living, or his widow or children. Indeed, the
privilege Of the first grant can only be made to
extend to a femme sole or other feminine by
constituting author" in its generic sense as
including authoress, which would be 20 held il
the court" happened to be Q woinan's rights
man, but not if otherwise
Among the conditions imposed by the third
section is the usual sending Of two copies Of the
book to the Congressional Library, but instead
OF requiring copies of the best edition as at
present they may be the poorest edition, bound
or unbound, SO long as each is 'book;" and
the bill permits the books to be deposited at
the library or deposited in the mail within
the United States any time before they are
published, but mot later than the day Of the
publication thereof in this or any foreign coun-
try" How this could be done earlier than the
day of the publication, or how on that day,
when published across the Atlantic, cannot
see; but perhaps it was intended as an impossi-
BILE condition, since the copyrighted books are
required to be printed from type set in this
country or from plates therefrom. Further
more, the day of publication" in many cases
is very indeterminate and doubtful day, and
think it has never been decided at what point
in the manufacture OF printed volume it be-
comes a publication. II the time given was
that when first offered for sale or a reasonable
specified time thereafter it would avoid dis
putable point
hope this bill will receive revision before it
becomes a law. THos. HoGE.

A Result of Hasty Legislation,

The Vermont legislature passed a new school
law on the last night of its recent session about
midnight. The measure passed was compro-
mise, hastily prepared, and it botched dates so
that districts could not in the new school year
have acquired the number Of weeks of school
to entitle them to their share of the public
money. State Treasurer Field announces that
he will not divide the school money, amount
ing to $275,0O0, unless the supreme court
passes upon the new law. 1t is expected that
special session of the legislature will be neces-
sary to straighten out the matter

A New Year Drunk.

'This is my first offense and if your honor

who appeared before Judge Miller this morn
ing for being disorderly on It'll street last
night. Davis was "gloriously drunk" the
policeman sayc. When he reached the corner
Of It'll and G streets he sat down on door
step to take nap. Policeman Hebrew came
along and gave the intoxicated man a start to-
ward home, but Davis, who was not too full
for utterance, shouted aloud at the top his
voice and came near getting into figh. with
colored man. The judge did not excuse him
this time. but imposed fine of Is or fifteen
days.
