OASPAR MUST STAY IN JAIL,
Judge Hudspeth Refuses to Diminish
His P~unishment.

An appeal for mercy was made by
Counsellor Manning to Judge Hudspeth
today on behalf5 of Frank Caspar of Sum-
init avenue and High street. Caspar was
convicted of extorting $50 from an ignor-
ant Pole about a year ago. He was sem
fenced to thirty days Imprisonment at
the County Jail and to pay a fine of
$3.50.
Counsellor Manning told the Judge tina
he had already served sixty lays time be-
cause he could not pay the fine n tina
he would be in Jail nearly a year if he
had to serve out his fine. He said that
Caspar's wife and five children were in
destitute circumstances, so destitute thai
they had applied to Poormaster Hewitt
for charity. He asked clemency on be-
half of the family.
Prosecutor Winfield opposed any dim
par to have been one of the worst Jus
tees of the Peace in the county and said
that he should be severely punished. He
regretted that this was one of the many
cases in which the innocent must suffer
for the guilty, but said his duty was
plain in the matter and he asked the
Court not to be Influenced by the appeal.
Judge. Hudspeth declined to- interfere
with the sentence.

The Board of Fire Commissioners met
on Wednesday evening and received a re-
port of the Committee of the Whole as
to the charges made against members
of Companies z and u.
The report says:-"The complaining
parties, Mrs. Snowden, Mrs. Ryan, Mrs.

titled to appear before this committee
to testify as to- their knowledge of the
matter. All of these witnesses, with the
exception of Mrs. Donohue who did not
appear, were examined under oath.
1--WE have carefully considered the evil
dence thus taken and are of the opinion
that some of the members of these COM
panies have in the past acted in such a
manner as to call forth unfavorable COM
ment; but the evidence is not specific
enough as to the individual Members SO
offending, nor as to the times of such
misconduct, to warrant this committee
in formulating charges against any of
such members.
'tBut we would recommend that the Of
fcers and members of these companies
be notified that this Board does not
consider them entirely blameless in this
matter, and that if any further COM
plants be made of a like character
which can be su~bstantiated by proper
evidence, that the party or parties so
offending will be severely dealt with.

marine animal which may prove to be a
veritable sea serpent. The creature was
first seen by him a week ago neal the

escape it he had to pass out of this
pocket-like gully past Horn, who stood

this way it took to the sandbar inclosing
the gully and wabbled over it with
motions something like a seal accomp-
fishes lard ~nauigation, and made it's

the size of his arm, triangular head, and
