was that the human will. with its weakness and
imperfections. should be strengthened bv the
power that comes from God.

There is a colored man in the first ward
named Walter johnson who is feared by many
policemen in the third precinct. The fea.
is the result Of his previous assaults, and when
arrested the officers never wait until they are
nearly killed before they take action.
johnson got drunk yesterday and was trying
to take possession Of 25th street, when Police
man Martin O'Brlen happened in the neighbor-
hood and arrested him. The latter soon threw
the officer over the fence inclosing the park,
bit him in the shoulder and kicked him in the
groin.
The officer. in turn, used his baton on John
sons head and caused fow of blood that
dyed the negro's shirt red.
This morning Johnson's character was dis
cussed in the Police Court and the unfortunate
man thought he was more sinned against than
SHINING.
Judge Miller was OF q different opinion and
gave him eight months In Jail.
