Using Fireworks.

Pennsylvania avenue in the vicinity Of
chinatown" was alive with fireworks last
night and the Cinnamon, as wels~j few
others. had good time. For the most
part those who used the explosives were
not molested. but Norval Tabler. a boy
about twelve years old. proved the excep-
tion>to the rude. Heo was iarrss1ed by Po-
liceman Newkirk because he set off a giant
cracker. and the policeman said he would
have released the boy if he had not been so
sassy" But the boy would not say he
was ashamed. Of himself and so he had
to face Judge Kimball this morning. Then
he was charged with having exploded
torpedo. The proof was that he exploded
firecracker. but there was no expert on
fireworks in court to tell the difference be-
tween firecracker and torpedo, and SO
the court held him guilty.
The judge. in imposing fine Of 81, said
he intended to impose fines in all cases
where fireworks are used before or after
the Fourth.
