Discipline is the transcendent princl-
pie with the military official. Mayor
Wright is consequently diScipli marian
of the rigid type. Monday was the
Christmas holiday, when everybody is
supposed to make merry. The legends
of the day for eighteen centuries have
taught by precept that it is right and
proper to make merry. But it happens
that some of the policemen possibly
oyerstepped the bonds OF ordinary cele-
bration, and there were three trials in
the mayors court yesterday because of
such indiscretions. John GOWN was
fined s25 for being found under the in
fluence of the ''old creature" Daniel
Meighan was not found at his post OF
duty by the sergeant when the police
relief was posted. and this cost him SIS;
