be allowed to take Hansen home. and

IN a POLICE ELL
Small Boy Incarosratsd AL Night Among
Oriminala
More Bicycle Cases ~ Court and the
Sentences Imposed In Each
About C0nting.

There was another case Of small boy
incarcerated in a darkl police cell for an
alleged violation of the-hcycle regulations.
and punished before trial, brought to the
attention Of Judge Kimbail today. William
Putsche, sixteen years old. was the Of
fender against the law, and Policeman
Robertson OF the bicycle squad was the
officer in the case. Williams parents live
at No. 1729 Pennsylvania avenue north
west, and his failure to return home caused
them some aneasiness. What had become
of her boy the mother could not imagine.
He had net been in the habit Of remaining
away from home in this way. So much
alarmed was she that she sent for friends,
ard had them go out and make a search.
Some time after daybreak the boy was
found behind the bars in Lieut.. Amlss
police station. But even then the friend
of the family did not have the amount OF
collateral. and SO the boy had to remain
behind the bars and ride to court IN the
sergers number Of old offenders and
habtual violators of the law.
When the case was called before the
court. the boy disputed the truth or the
squad. The officer said that the boy
was racing from the White Lot to 14th
street and Pennsylvania avenue. while the
hoy said he had declined an invitation to
1.-The law" said the Judge, lis fmpera-
tive and this riding at an excessive rate
oil speed must be stopped.
Mr.. Tabler, the weA-knewh letter car
rier, was In court to look after the In
terests of the boy, and he told the court
that the boys father did not know where
he was.
''1f you fine the boy" he said. "rn
have to pay 1t for him.
Five dollars" said the court.
This boy was locked up all night" said
Mr.. Pugh, the impartial prosecutor.
The judge concluded that his incarcera-
ton was sufficient punishment, and said
he would remit the fine.
Five Hours imprisonment.
Richard Coleman, a gentlemanly appear
ing colored boy. twelve years old. also
arrested by Policeman Robertson. had
spent five hours in a police cell because
he had been seen riding hands off,
II only took my hands Off while I was
buttoning my coat" was the boys excuse.
His personal bonds were taken.
George Dearborn, about sixteen years old,
arrested by Officer Estes of the bicycle
squad. was not locked UP. He left s. col
lateral.
His excuse was that he was a stranger
in the city, having been here only about
three months. This the court thought was
long enough time for him to understand
that coasting about Pennsylvania avenue
and 18th street is against the law. He had
to pay his fine
Walter A. Summers. a messenger boy,
who was reading telegram while coastins
along Pennsylvania avenue, was tried.
Judge Kimball commented the speed
made by messenger boys and took the
boys personal bonds, with warning that
he should not repeat the offense.
Tony Brown entered plea of guilty to
charge of speeding his bicycle, and the
court took his personal bonds.
In the cases of Joseph H. Keane. George
Thurston and Clarence Langley the col
lateralS were forfeited.

Delegates From the O0lOred .Churches

The Sunday school convention. composed

began Friday evening last in Metropolitan
Baptist Church. R street between 18th and
18th streets northwest. closed Sunday even

tended by an audience which filled every
part of the building.
The principal addresses were by Rev. 1.
V. Bryant and W. d. Jarvis, though others

which was highly commended by several
speakers. The subjects of the essays were:
Convention" by Rev. James Chestnut:
Grading the Sunday School, by Miss NJ
L. Jordan; 1.-The kindergarten Method in

q. A resolution was unanimously adopted
thanking the press of the city, and es-
pecially The Evening Star, for publishing

Saturday afternoon paper was read on

followed by the adoption of a resolution re-
queSting the superintendent of each colored

three delegates to a convention to be held
in the near future for the purpose of carry
ing out the suggestions in Miss Bowen's
paper, and '"The Model Sunday School"
was the title of an essay by DR.. c. w.
Childs.
Good Results.
In speaking to Star reporter of the re-
suits of holding the convention DR.. Frank
]. Webb, one Of the principal men in the
body, and the first to suggest that such q
meeting be held, said: THE convention ac-
complished wonders from a missionary and
harmoniZing standpoint.
Never before as far as can learn-cer-
tainly not for forty years-have represen-
tatives from the Baptists and Methodists
worked together. There was not one dis
orderly scene upon the floor. The remark
ably high character Of the delegates was a
| noticeable feature. as was also the absence
of that chronic pest, the colored orator.
Every delegate seemed actuated by an
earnest and friendly spirit.
THE good from a missionary and inter-
denominatio tional standpoint was best ex-
pressed by Rev. 8. G. LAmpkin of Cham
plain Avenue Baptist IChurch, when he
said: This Is the best, theflargest and most
orderly conducted Sunday school conven-
tion ever attended in fthe District Of CO.
Evening star., 1896-06-16

lumbia- The benefits Of such q work are
incalculable. The organizers Of such a con-
vention are public benefactors'
THE principal resolution adopted was one
which recommended that an executive
committee Of nine be appointed with power
to call another convention a year hence.
The missionary resolution, and one in my
opinion calculated to do great good. pro-
vided that each Sunday school Of the con-
vention appoint three missionary workers
to labor among the poor Sunday schools
and in the alleys and byways of this great
city, and report at the next convention
The statistics gathered by Mr.. ]. L. Jas
per were. it is thought, the most complete
regarding colored Sunday schools ever
gathered here. He reported in the 83
schools 4.765 pupils and teachers, Zion
Baptist leading, with over 1,3CO attend
ants"
