/ Police REPoRT-Iast night wa.
clear until about twelve o'clock, wheI
it became cloudy. -Four dodgers and
three prisoners were at the station
house.
Mayor Strauss this morning disposed
of the following cases:
Frank Laid. charged by Ernest
Padgett with being a suspicious charac'
ter and for threatening language, WAS
the first prisoner ushered in. Accord,
inc TO Mr. Padgetts testimony Ladd,
while under the influence of liquor, hal
become menacing and threatening to-
ward him. and on one occasion the ac.
cused had been seen i'll complainant ;
lot. corner of Alfred and Wilkes streets.
Mr.. Gibson, with whom Ladd has been
boarding, bore witness to the honesty
and straightforwardness ofthe accused
said ne had been working as q painter
here for some months, and the only
thing he knew to his discredit was that
while drinking he acted strangely and
would wander about aimlcsSly. Ladd
was discharged.
kossuth Williams, colored, was next
called in. 1t seemed that about twelve
o'clock lest night the prisoner was in
the house Of Geo. Finch Potomac HalD
north Fairfax street, where night WAS
being made hideous by startling shriek..
When the officers arrived on the scene
some one was in the act ofejecting Will
liams, and the proprietor informing the
officers that he was the main incitor OF
the disorder, he was taken in custody.
The accused of course, in his state
ment was oblivious to last nights pro-
Geedings. He was fined $3.50, and not
having that sum was soon returned to
the place from whence he came-be-
hind the bars.
James Madden, for keeping q vicious
dog which had used lis teeth on a boy
named Downs. was fined 81 and Officer
Arlington was deputized to kill the
brute.
Matilda Tebbs, colored, who had been
fined yesterday for throwing rubbish on
the pavement and in front OF the house
of Philis Williams, also colored, was
again before the court this morning on
complaint of the latter for asserting that
the prOSecutrlX Ill Yesterday pIOcccu-
ings had sworn falsely. Tie Mayor
told Phillis that probably the defendant
had cnuse 70 make the assertion; said
he was satiiied the accused was wom-
an Of good character, and, like Gallo Of
old, ''droye them from the Judgment
seat.
-Four white youths. charged with
pitching cents and shooting crap, after
giving the police much trouble We're
caught and placed in the dock. They
were fined 81 each and given a severe
lecture.

They had had almost no rain in two
years and had become dissatisfied with one
of their medicine men, whose intercession
with the clouds had failed even more
completely than that of Gen. Dyrenforth.
They selzed this unfortunate Zuni wizard
and hanged him by the thumbs, rrepara-
tory to putting him to death by torture.
Even IN this extremity his quick Wit and
long experience in the practice Of tlumbug
saved him. He admitted that he vas re-
sponsible for the lack of rain last SKINNER,
but persuaded his savage and credulous
brethren that if they killed him rain could
never fall again. Ii they would spare him

are tribe of Pueba Indians who have
several farming villages around che town
OF Zuni, which is their winter hotrle. They
call it the "Center of the Earth" 1t
stands on slight eminence above a creek,
in the midst of large plain. The houses
are built of adobe, with Hat roofs, and par
apets about two feet high around the
edges. Those on the outside are one story
high, but they rise one above the other to-
ward the center, where they look like
huge square tower. In the middle of the
village, near the ancient church, is small
plaza, which is reached from the north
and south by two narrow alleys. The
church itself Is of adobe. and. like all the
churches built in New Mexico, Arizona
and California by the early Catholic mis-
slonaries, is now ruin and used as
stable for burros. The town contains $50
inhabitants. of whom $50 are reckoned as
able to bear arms, with which they appear
to be we'll supplied.
According to tradition the Zuni Noah
landed from his ark on a hill about three
miles from the village. From him they
believe that their laws and their religion
are derived. They are very we'll to do,
raising plenty of grain, vegetables and
fruit. They own large hocks OF sheep and
herds of ponies, burros and cattle. Cruelty
and treachery are their dominant in
stincts. Only a short time ago they cap
tured two Mexican sheep herders and
chopped them to pieces.
They believe in witchcraft, and they
