DISGRACEFUL CONDUCT.
Walter Bacon Makes an Exhibition of Him
self ON Market Street.

self on Market Street.
Walter Bacon. a we'll known attorney,
made disgracetul exhibition of him
self on Market street Monday after
noon, and on Tuesday he was sem
tenced TO pay dearly for his folly.
Detective Bernard j. McVey saw
Bacon acting strangely on Market
street shortly before o'clock. The
detective approached Bacon and adj
vised him to go home. With this advice
Bacon started off up the street. The
detective did not lose sight of him,
however, and in the course of few
minutes he was seen TO leer insultingly
at several woinen. This was too much
for the f;i',r and 3acon was arrested
and lo'hs.i IN All The police station.
S,hcrtle hsfoYe the municipal court
openel ~ l-estlay Bacon sent com
muniratlon 10 Judge Ball asking that
he he given a private hearing. The
judge would listen to no such PROPOSE
tiup, however, and he was brought into
the court room at 2 O'Clock.
TGe only prosecuting witness was
Detective McVey, who related what he
had seen Monday on the most public
thoroughIare in the city. The officer
stated that within his sight Bacon
went out of his way TO get i'll ont Of
several women and look them sQuarely
in the face He would cross the street
for this purpose. Whether he SAID any
thing TO the women the officer did not
know, but his actions were enough.
The women who had been thus in
suited got out of Bacon's way as best
they could and none OF them were
called to testify. They were respect
L.. . 4 1. l..
to have them in CO. I when the officer
had seen the mans conduct and their
testimony was not necessary.
After being sure of his case Detec-
tive McVey promptly arrested Bacon,
which humbed him very much. But
he had been guilty of the same conduct
on previous occasions and there was
very little sympathy for him. When
the arrest was made Bacon was taken
direct to the police station, and hun
dreds of people who knew him saw the
arrest.
Several complaints had been lodged
with the police before Detective McVey
saw Bacon's actions, which made the
matter all the more aggravating.
The prisoner took tine stand in his
own behalf on Tuesday. He stated
that he was feeling unwell Monday
and took a drink, and he claimed that
after taking the drink he had no recol-
lection of what took place. He pleaded
hard to have the case dismissed, but
the court thought he needed punish
ment and he was sentenced to pay
fine of $40 and the costs of prosecu-
tion. After adjournment of court he
paid out and went his way very much
crestfallen, and it was evident that he
keenly felt the disgrace. The punish.
ment will probably be valuable les
son to him,

he Good.

A beautiful afternoon, ladies' day, and
two games for the admission attracted a
fair-siZed crowd at National Park this af-
ternoon.
Manager McGunnigle introduced for the
first time in the National League a young
left-handed pitcher named Emig, who halls
from the lots around Cincinnati.
The young man gave every indication in
the first part Of the game of being able
to hold his own In fast company. only one
hit being made up to the fourth inning
'Foghorn' Miller was SCI in to receive
the young mans delivery and coached him
perfectly. King and Farrell was the bat
terry selected for Washington. and the sill
ver-haired boy allowed but one hit, a short
bunt in front Of the plate, up to the fourth
inning.
In the first inning the first batter up, lit
tie Miller. sent a scorching grounder 10
third, Of which Smith made remarkable
stop with one hand, and retired the
runner at first. In the second another SEN
sational play was made by De Montreville,
on an apparently safe hit over second. The
ball was very fast. but the little short stop
knocked it down with his left hand and
retired the runner at first.
The first run was chalked up for Wash
ington IN the third inning. Lush, the first
man up, went to first base on balls. RoS-
ers error on a thrown ball permitted Lush
to go to second and Selbach to first. A
beautiful double steal by Lush and Sell
bach followed.
Farrell then cracked liner to center.
which Pickering made remarkable catch
Of. getting the ball about the shoe top.
Lush crossing the plate on the hit. The
first hit registered by Washington was
made by OBrien In the fourth inning. but
the runner died at third as the result of
weak batting and of stupid base running.
The score at the end of the fourth inning
was 1 to . in favor of the Senators, and
no hnf a n 20 81
and close game will follow.
In the fifth Washington made nine runs.
