BADLY BEATEN.
Several weeks ago Justice Larus wes in
formed that colored man had been badly
beaten by some unknown person and that
the sufferer was in dangerous condition.
He investigated the matter and learned
that Joseph Clarke was the victim OF the
assault, and that he resided on twenty
sixth and X streets. The Magistrate found
that Clarke had been seriously injured.
His right jaw-bone Yves broken. his lip
painfully cut. and his head severely
bruised. As Justice Larus could not ascer-
tain the cause Of the trouble. he detailed
o colored man to get the particulars.
This negro failed to solve the mystery,
and Mr.. Larus set TO work on the case
10 n NJ
which led to the arrest of Charles Hopes,
who was apprehended Friday afternoon,
and will appear before the Magistrate to-
morrow afternoon. IL Is supposed that
the prisoner entered the house OF Clarke
with tho intention of committing
burglary, was discovered by his victim,
and assaulted him IN order to escape.
DR.. Ellis attended the wounded negro,
who 10 now out OK danger.
CHARGED WITH TEEsPAss.
wv. Camp, q white man who frequently
assists Justice Samuels as q deputy, was
arrested yesterday on a warrant charging
him with trespass. which was sworn out
by Austin Jones. a negro. Camp went 10
the house Of Jones 70 serve civil warrant
on him and the negro. suspecting that he
did not have the proper authority, had
him arrested.
Emma Boiling (anegro women) was fined
$3.50 by Justice Lewis for assault. She
took an appeal. judge Minor quashed the
warrant on the ground that the Magistrate.
under the recent decision of the Supreme
Court, should either have dismissed the
case or certified 1t to the grand jury.
William Lowe, o white man about 90
years old, was before Justice Larus yes
terday on charge of unlawfully detain-
ing and holding Ellen Jordan, a white girl
about lG years old. He was balled for bis
appearance before the grand jury. 1t
seems that the Jordan girl IS employed by
Lowe as n servant at the latter's home,
about six miles below the city. Several
female friends Of the girls visited her
few DAYS ago and endeayored to get her
away from loves home. He refused TO let
her 90 and she then swore out the warrant
as above described.

Larus charged with creating disturbance
on an excursion tram over the Richmond,
Frederlcks burg and Potomac railroad. All
of the parties are negroes. Smith and
