Fined for Assaulting a Chinaman.


Paul Moy is the name of Chinaman who
thinks this city is good enough for him. He
has no fears of the Geary exclusion act, for he
has registered, and he intends to remain here
and wash collars and cuffs until he becomes
wealthy enough to return to the fowery king
dom in fine style.
And while he remains here he intends to live
as all good citizens do, and he does not intend
to submit to violence without getting even in
some way.
Saturday night he was standing in front of
his place of business enjoying the fresh air,
when three young men came along and pro-
ceeded to use him for target. One Of them
struck him with an umbrella and then went on
his way, little thinking that Paul would follow
him. But the almond-eyed celestial did follow
him, and when complaint was made police
man made an arrest
John Murphy was the name given by the
young man who was arrested. He charged
that the assault was committed by one Of his
companions, but the Chinaman was sure of his
man and Murphy was locked up.
In Judge Miller's court this morning the
Chinaman told the story of the assault and the
defendant made his denial
lis there any one here who knows the de-
fendant!" asked the judge.
'Idon't believe he has given his right name, ~
said Policeman Brady. Il don't believe his
name is Murphy"
Where do you live?" the court inquired.
''At Fort Myer," was his reply.
why in the world can't you let these
Cinnamon alone?"
i never touched him."
Paul was recalled and he told the judge that
he was not mistaken, that the prisoner was the
man who hit him.
Judge Miller thought he was the guilty
party and fined him $40 and costs or so days
in Jail

ANACOSTIA.

The final performance of the series Of public
school tertainments was given Saturday
night. 1t was a success. There was an increase
in attendance. an Improvement in the rendi-
ton of the program and no dminution OF pub
lie interest. Miss Jennie BARLEY introduced
the wax figures with quaint effect, and Miss
Fannie Anderson acted as accompanist to the
chorus. The novelty feature of the perform
ance was the club swinging of Miss Fannie L.
Johnston, Miss Mamie Swengle and Master
Raymond Riordan. The proceeds of the en-
tertainment we're large, and will be applied to
the school library. Supervising Principal
Freeman was present and congratulated Prin-
cipal Brewer. the teachers and the children.

OF instruction and wonderful appreciation of
their parts.

stronger local interest manifested in the work.

spoke on the subject of charity toward all and
in little things.
Rev. Herbert Stokes lectured last night at
Masonic Hall to full house on the ''Coming
of the Lord" He argued that the belief in the
second advent of our Savior was warranted on
scriptural authority. No one of the audience
left before the close of the lecture. Strong
interest attached to the speaker by reason of
the fact that he is the brother Of Mrs. Adelaide
StanSier, one of the society leaders of Anacos-
tia. Efforts are being made to have the lecture
repeated.
Rev. DR.. Dewy, a delegate to the Presby-
terrain general assembly, occupied the pulpit
