isaac T1ppcts Will Have Company to
Surrattsyille.
Isaac Tippets, stout-looking young white
man, was in the dock of Judge KimbalI's
court this morning charged with boisterous
conduct and profanity at 10th and streets
southeast yesterday. The policeman who
made the arrest was about to take the
stand when the judge ordered him to stand
aside, saying that there was something
more in the case than the charge showed
So he called Health Inspector Bowman to
the stand and he told curious tale about
Isaac. The young man, he said. has not
been just right in his mind for some time,
owing to a severe sunstroke which he suf-
fered several years ago. He has been in
the habit Of wandering off and his folks,
who live in Surrattsville, Nd, are now
anxious that he should be sent home.
Judge Kinhball directed Mr.. Bowman to
have Isaac, who is about twenty-five or
thirty years old, returned to his parents.
Isaac spoke up at this from the dock and
said: I've been farming all summer. 1
guess can go home by myself, Judge"
We'll, I'd rather Mr.. Bowman would take
you home" said the court.
But know / can go home Alone" per-
sisted Isaac. Nevertheless he went back
and he will be sent to Surrattsville.

ALL ABOUT A PISTOL.
Jane johnson Couldn't Satisfactorily
Explain Why She Had 1t.

Explain Why She Had 1t.
Judge Kimball fiourished an enormous re-
volver from the Police Court bench this
morning. 1t looked very murderous, but
the court had no murder in his mind. He
was merely trying to find out why Jane
Johnson, a very matrony-appearing colored
woman Of middle age, was carrying the
gun down L street between 10th and Goth
streets last night. Officer McNeely told
how he met Jane on L street with the
pistol, which Is Of 44-caliber, in her hand.
He arrested her. after quite a struggle. and
found half dozen cartridges in the gun.
Jane took the stand to tell how a man
had given the pistol to her boy some time
ago, and 1t bothered her, lying around in
her house, with all her numerous children
playing around.
Deed, Judge, yo' honor, it laid on de
ash barrel from o'clock in de afternoon
smack up to 10 o'clock las night. Then.
yo' honor, took de pistol in my han an
went long l. street to fin de man who
give it to my boy. He lives in Linger' 8
alley, and, judge, yo' honor, held de pistol
right smack out open. Judge, yo' honor, /
rever had no 'scuse to carry pistol. 1t
amt no use to me-
James Ford, a dapper young colored man,
was called to the stand, but he knew little
about the case. did not even know where
Linser's alley was, and although he saw
Jane on l. street with the pistol in her
hand. his ideas of local geography were SO
vague that he was excused, after he had
got Lawyer James Smith and Officer Nc
Nicely into quarrel. which Judge Kimball
broke up.
Charles Madison, young colored boy,
thought the pistol was one that he and the
Johnson boy found about five years ago.
Then we gave 1t to this young lady to
keep for u.s. he said, indicating Jane.
That was about three or four years ago."
Jane denied that it was the same pistol
saving no OF mol trr,r, had haav, n lie
posed of long ago. She was urged by Judge
Kimball to describe the man who gave the
pistol to her boy, and after some effort she
said that he dressed in black clothes and a
pink shirt. Judge Kimball took the wo-
mans bonds. and sent her and officer Nc
Nicely in patrol wagon to find the man
with the pink shirt. He then turned over
the miniature Krupp to the policeman.

HE TOLD A SMOOTH STORY.
But the Judge Did Not Believe II and
Sent Him Down.


Thomas Williams. a shrewd-looking white
lad Of about twenty years, came here. ac-
cording to his own story, about four days
ago from Wilmington. n. c., and has been
looking for work ever since. According to
tAe story of a policeman, who arrested him
yesterday in the Riggs market, on p street,
Thomas was looking for something else
than work. He had strong suspicion that
Thomas was looking too eagerly at the
money in the purse of lady who was pur-
chasing vegetables. So he took him in A
couple Of stall keepers swore before Judge
kimball this morning that Thomas was
acting suSpiciouSly, and then the young tar
heel took the stand and told as smooth q
story as ever a court heard. He said that
he was on his way to get work on the
Cairo Flats in the morning, and stopped at
the market. He looked at some apples that
were for sale to ask their price.
What did you price them for?' asked
the Judge.
Il wanted to buy barrel to send down
home. They have no apples there this
year."
But you had no money!"
Not a cent. But 1 expected to get
work.
This theory of the defense did not alto
gether suit the court, especially as Officer
c. W. Marshall swore that Thomas was
before the court on a similar charge year
ago. notwithstanding his statement that he
had never been in Washington before this
trip. So the judge ordered Thomas to give
$50 bonds or go down for thirty days.
