TWO SPEAKEASY CASES.
One PernmbuIating bar in n WOman's
Pocket.

Police Sergeant John c. Daley, who is not
much loved by violators of the law, paid
two calls in South Washington yesterday,
but the persons upon whom he called We're
not glad to see him. He was not given a
hearty welcome, nor was he even invited to
take drink, and this is something unusual
for the persons upon whom he called, al
though the drinks may possibly have to be
paid for by the guest. About the time the
hundreds of children were hurrying off to
Sunday school the sergeant and the officer
on the beat called on Mrs. Kate Connell at
No. ass X street. Mrs. Connell, whom the
police say is a grass widow" was at home
Her husband who had been a police officer
and then a saloon keeper, 'resides in the
city, but not in the house with Kate.
A warrant charging Mrs. Connell with a
violation of the liquor law was read to her,
and in the house the officers found two little
brown jugs in which there was liquor
Kate and the jugs were taken, and she was
released on bond for a hearing.
Two hours later Sergeant Daley and the
officer strolled down the street and called
at the little home and barber shop Of How
ard G.. Warner in Porksteak alley.
A customer was about to get shaved when
the officers entered and met the barber,
whose blue suit AMI brass buttons and dis
play of q. 4. r. badges showed him TO be a
veteran Oh tfle lite war. wife,
to learn why the officers had called on Sun
day morning, stepped from herspart of the
house and inquired the cause of all the ex-
citemCnt.
II want that bottle which is In your pock-
et," the officer told her.
Deed 1 got no bottle" was what she
told him.
Eyes, you have" said the officer, whose
information was to the effect that the sup
ply of liquid refreshments had been kept in
her pocket.
No sooner had he said the word than he
started toward Lavinia Warner.
Keep away from here, man. she shout
ed but, seeing the officer was determined to
ascertain the whereabouts of the perambu-
latng supply she drew quart bottle of
whisky from her pocket and an instant later
the bottle landed on the stove and the whis-
ky spilled.
Then The old veteran told the officer that
he had done the best he could for his wife.
''She bought the whisky for 81 gallon"
he said, "and 1 tried to stop her, but she
was too much for me-"
Howard was arrested as being responsible
for his wife's actions, and he will be given
a jury trial. Mrs. Connell will also be
tried by a jury.

Room Needed.

Daniel III. Williams, surgeon in charge Of
Freedmen's Hospital, has written to the
Commissioners informing them that there
are twenty-five persons In Freedmen's Hos
pital who are not patients proper. He
states that they occupy beds which are
needed very much for acute cases, which
they are forced to refuse every day The
letter further states that it Is evident that
the increased demands upon the hospital
will force them to enlarge it's capacity to
its fullest extent to accommodate those who
are in need of immediate attention. Sew
eral patients are refused admission each
day for the lack of room. He requests that
the persons be transferred to the Washing
ton Asylum.

TAPPED A CARTRIDGE.
1t Exploded and Mangled q Boys
Hand.

II EXplOOeO anu MangleO bOy'b
Hand.
On Saturday evening Maurice. the twelve
year-old son of Mr.. Robert Weaver, had his
hand terribly mangled through the ex-
plosion of dynamite cartridge, whose
power he was unaware of. The hoy found
the explosive in the grounds Of the naval
observatory while on a ramble. 1t was
old and not dangerous looking, and he
handled it carelessly. The explosion was
caused Immediately through the action of
the young fellow In tapping 1t with stick.
He was seated at the time and idly moving
the cartridge about, when, unthinkingly, he
gave 1t what he intended as a final stroke.
By this time the cartridge had probably
become warmed up a little and 1t went off.
One part of the boys hand was blown of
and the flesh of his fingers lacerated be-
ycnd all shape. The member has the APP
pearance Of having been chewed by a
Vicious dog. The bones of the fingers, how
ever. are believed to be intact. While lit
tie splintering may have taken place, none
were broken, as far as the laceration admits
Of seeing.
