graph and after consultation with his pastor.

Mr.. jerks was kept busy all the afternoon re-
ceiving his fellow-townsmen. who came to offer
their congratulations. In going into the csbi-
net Mr.. jerks leaves a law practice worth

Upon the receipt of the first telegram Mr..

THE ALL-NIGHT SESSION,

1t Furnished Some Amusing and Some Ex-
citing Scenes.
The all-night session of the House last night
furnished some amusing scenes. When the
august body adjourned at $50 o'clock this
morning the members carried away with them
memories of some lively times.
The Congressional Record will be an inter-
esting document if it faithfully records all that
was said and done during the long hours Of the
night.
SLIPPERY CONDITION.
Difficulty was found in obtaining a quorum,
lowing to the slippery condition of the streets, ="
it was said. whereby conveyances could not be
procured to bring In the absentees.
However, not only the streets were slippery.
There good skating" inside the Capitol
last night. At any rate several persons were
reported as having ''skates on"
That may be parliamentary term. however,
and have no connection with slippery streets,
yet such an Interpretation would be rather
jagged.
The all-night session was caused by the oppo-
sition to the pending bill to provide a uniform
system of car couplings to be used on railroads
The opponents Iilibustered and were aided by
the absence of a quorum. At $50 this morn
ing, after reaching an agreement to bring up
the bill next Monday under suspension Of the
rules. the House adjourned.
FACETIoUs AND FRErFUL-
During the night the members were in turn
facetiohs and fretful. Some warm passages Of
words occurred, for instance when Mr.. Watson
charged Mr.. Richardson with being a tool of
railroad corporations, but fortunately the
session passed off without any fist fights. Sew
eral absentees were arrested by the sergeant
alarms and brought before the bar OF the
House. where after little good natured
badinage they were excused for being absent
without leave

speeches up to 10 o'clock pm. when 1t went to
press with q line at the end of the column read

A CURIOUS WITNESS.
Judge kimball Holds a Woman on
Charge of Perjury.

Judge kimball Holds a Woman a
Charge of Perjury.
Maurice Flynn is the proprietor of alincensed
bar room in South Washington and yester-
day he called upon in the Police Court to
explain the alleged sale of some gin to a colored
woman named Hattie Golden.
Hattie told Of the purchase of drink and a
bottle Of gin in the defendants place. She
said she was not sent there by
police officer or any one else.
but when Lawyer Darlington questioned
her she admitted that Officer Pearce had given
her money and sent her there. In the way of
explaining her conduct she said that her
friend, Jennie Wood. had made complaint that
her husband, who was paid off Saturday night,
had not been home, but had been in the defend
ants place.
Jennie Wood was called but she denied the
| statement that she had complained of her hus-
band. The beer she had Sunday she said she
bought Saturday night, and when the officer
sent her out Sunday to get beer at Mr.. Flynn s
she went out in her back yard and poured
the beer from bottle into bucket. She told
the officer that she got the gin from Mr..
Flynn's Sunday to see what he would say. but
she really bought it Saturday night. Jennie
denied that she went to Mr.. Flynn's place Sun
day.
Hattie Bolden was recalled and questioned
but she made no change in her statement
Policeman Pearce was next put on the stand
and he told Of the complaint made by Jennie
Wood about her husband.
Judge Kimball said that perjury had been
committed in the case, and if possible he was
going to find the guilty one.
Additional Witnesses were sent for. Thew
were Rose Miller and James Henry. They we're
questioned and the District, through Mr.. Pugh,
| the prosecuting attorney, announced that its
case was closed.
Mr.. Darlington entered q demurrer to the
proof. which was overruled.
In commenting on the proof the judge said
that no officer has a right to tempt a man
to break the law, but he has right
to use legitimate means to detect persons
who are known to be violating it. In over
ruling the demurrer the Judge said he would
hold Jennie Wood for the grand jury for alleged
perjury.
The hearing in the case resumed this
morning. and the witness Jennie Wood APP
peared and admitted that she swore falsely yes-
terday, and said that Mr.. Flynn had threatened
her and offered her S.; that, she said was why
she SO testified yesterday.
Mr.. Flynn denied the charge made against
him by the girl and said he had not seen the
girl between Saturday night and the time that
he saw her in court. This morning be said he
spoke to the girl. asking her why she was
SO downhearted and telling her to cheer up.
He was not charged with having waited upon
the witness and he said he had given instruc-
tons to his family not to violate the law
Judge Kimball commented on the proof and
imposed the maximum penalty-S40.
