Sarah Jones. a middle-aged, dried up
looking colored woman, was before the
recorder this morning, arrested by Off
Ger Springer yesterday evening in a
house in the rear of No. BIS North Lare-
do street, and charged with being disor-
derby.
The evidence Of Springer and Detec-
tive Hughes was taken. They said Mrs.
Jones had little daughter, Julia Cham
bers, the child of her first husband, aged
about 10or IL years, whom she kept in a
house in the front OF her residence
and had farmed her out for immoral pur.
poses until the child had become
so i'll and badly cared for that when they
found her she was lying on a miserable
cot in the room, in a most pitiable condi-
ton, and the physician who saw her,
would not guarantee that she would re-
cover from her injuries.
Detective Hughes testified, in addition
that Mrs. Jones had come to him last
Christmas and complained that the
committed rape on the child; that he had
laid the case before Justice Adam, but
that official had refused to take the affi-
davit although two physicians had
examined the child at that time and
found her in seriously lacerated
condition. The husband skipped
about this time and since that time has
never reappeared in this city. The child
was placed with another family. but had
wandered away shortly after, and had re-
Gently come back to where her mother
was living.
Assistant City Attorney Huston stated,
when the recorder transferred the case to
the grand jury, that every man who had
had immoral relations with the child was
guilty of rape, and that the mother was
particeps criminiS in the case The child
was under the age Of consent and was not
responsible.
The woman'S defense was that she had
had nothing to do with the child, who she
laid. was IA years OF age. Capt. Hughes
Swore that Mrs. Jones swoTe last Deem
Der that the child was then only 10 years
of age.
The girl, Chambers, is a small child,
even for her age and is not fully devel-
oped. She is mulattO of much bright
er complexion than her mother.

Relic of Queen Bess.

London Telegraph.
Queen Bess' "Pocket Pistol" the
formidable piece Of brass ordnance
which for generations has over
looked the Channel from Dover
Cliffs, has been removed from its
place of honor, in order to make
room for a battery of modern guns,
and now rests in honorable retire.
ment in a less conspicuous part Of
the castle. This remarkable gun is
a feet long, requires a charge OF ID
pounds of powder, and has range,
it is said, Of seven or eight miles.
The verify of the assertion, has,
however, never been ascertained.
Around the tube are carved
figures representing victory and
liberty. The gun was a gift from
the Low Counties to Queen Eliza
beth in recognition of her efforts to
protect them and their religion.
On it is an inscription in Flemish
which is popularity supposed to
mean:
Load me well and keep me clean,
And will carry ball to Calais Green.
On which refrain was founded the
common idea that the gun was
able to sweep the French port
which lay in front Of it. This
translation is, however, completely
erroneous, as the words really
mean:
Der hill and dale can throw my ball,
| My name is Breaker Of Mound and
Wall"
The "Pocket Pistol" has ceased
to act up to its reputation, but will
still be regarded as worthy mem
mento of the spacious time" Of
Queen Elizabeth.
