Car No. $50. in charge of Motorman Fa-
hey, came speeding along and ran over
his right foot, cutting it of as clean as
il ii had been done with a cleaver. An
ambulance was sent for and he was taken

Young Langdon received his injury yes

AN HABITUAL OFFENDER.
N1cDermott Has Been Arrested Nine
Times and Served Three Terms.

Times and Served Three Terms.
James McDefmott, a typical tough Of
the toughest kind, was tried in the Cen
eral Sessions Court his morning on a
charge of petty larceny. On the 18th of
September he was caught in the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad yard in the act Of steal
ing two electric batteries.
Jonathan Rose, a special Waterman, tes-
titled that he saw the defendant with the
batteries.
Did you see me?' asked McDermott
in his toughest manner and scowling.
Judge Hudspeth raped his gavel.
Isaac S. Brunton testified chat he saw
McDermott passing by the window with a
battery in each hand.
You're a liar shouted McDermott.
Judge Hudspeth raped his gavel vigor-
ously and warned the tough that the
Court would take him in charge if he
made any more outbreaks. McDermott
kept quiet after that.
He went IN the stand n told a
rambling story about being to New York
looking for work and coming back. He
denied that he had stolen the batteries
and declared that the special officers and
the police were prosecuting him. He said
he belonged to a social club called the
D Crimmins Association. He said that
Brunton came up behind him and knocked
him down. The jury was inclined to con-
Wet him without leaving their seats, but
in order to avoid being called on the next
jury was impaneled they returned with
a verdict of guilty. McDermott has been
arrested nine times and has served three
terms in the penitentiary.
