the northwest section OF the city lately.
The detectives are fast placing the rob
berries AT his door, anu had three or them
against him in court this morning.
These cases have given the officers q
great deal of trouble and annoyance. The
boy has been so clever as always to cover
up the method of his entrance into the
houses, and 1t appeared in most cases as If
the thief must have been in the house be-
fore ii was locked up.
Thomas Taylor was the first witness in
the box and testified to losing an over
coat. which Detective Rhodes recovered.
James Cooper, of No. S1S Seventeenth

OF spectacies and other articles, which
were also traced TO Sims.
There were thirteen witnesses alto

through a skylight over the kitchen, and
he carefully closed it again after he left.
The trunk. with 4 great many OF the stolen
articles, was discovered, and the boys
captured. who had been sleeping in the

Ter, But Was Fined Nevertheless.
There was a priZe-fight out on Rock
Creek road last Sunday morning. and both
participants were very much in evidence
with black eyes in Judge Milier's court
this morning.
These fighters did not do any advertis-
ing and very little talking, and cons g
quently got their work in before any
interference occurred.
James Fenton keeps an oyster house and
grocery store at Rock Creek road. He has
a brother Mike, who works for him.
The Fentons don't like John Cady. and
when Cady called at the house Sunday
morning with Ed Tyne, the prize fighter.
Cady and Mike had some words. and Cady,
W ho was drunk, asked Mike, who wassober
to come over in the woods and have 1t out.
Mike Fcnton took advantage of Cady's
Drunkenness and vent with him and had it
out-that is to say. Cady's eyes were both
nearly put out. Cady has the worst face
ever presented in court.
Fenton knocked Cady down. and the lat
ter. being too drunk to get back on his
feet, was pounded until his face was al

and gave Fenton q lecture on his brutal
ity and fined them both $50.
