was released on S25 collateral.
As the flowers would only die, If kept, Mr.
Kramer was allowed to take possession OF
them, after he had sworn TO the private
marks on the stems, by means Of which
the thieves were caught A number OF
tile marked stems were cut off and re-
tanned by Clerk sylvester as evidence against
the accused.

The evening times., 1897-02-08

Three dminutive colored boys, Marshal
Johnson, Leroy Gray and George Dent,
were arraigned in Judge KimbalPs court
today under the new police ordinance pro
hibiting the crying of newspapers ON Sun
day, but on motion of their lawyer, Major
Darlington, the case was continued until
next Saturday.
These are the first arrests under the
new ordinance, and it is proposed by the
many prominent citizens of the District who
all along have been making valiant fight
in behalf OF the little bread winners to
make test cases of them.
Major Mcdowell Darlington was seen
early this morning by eN-District Attor-
ney Birncy, and asked If he would defend
the boys, TO which request he willingly
accedcd. Besides the attorney, many MEM
bers of the Secular League, who have been
particularly active against the new orCii-
nance, were also present TO see that the
boys were fairly dealt with. Among them
were Dr. Croffut, D. Webster Grow, Major
Morris Peclin, Prof. Highland Kirk, Mrs.
A. c. WIte, and Rev. Dr. Noon, OF the
Seventh Adventist Church.
As the charge was read, the three little
fellows stepped forward, and solemnly fix
ing their bug, black eyes on the Judge s
face, answered in chorus, mot guilty.
Two of the boys just showed above the
low railing OF the prisoners box, and
their round eyes, enlarged with wonder
as they gazed at the court proceedings.
Your honor, i am not at all sure,
sail Attorney Darlington, that this or
dinance is really constitutional; or, at
least that the Commissioners have power
to issue the same, under the existing laws
Of Congress. At any rate, this is the first
case under the law. and | would ask that
the defendants personal bonds be taken. -
1T is customary returned the court,
ito take the personal bonds when prison
ers are brought in under new law, So
unless there s objection, Will grant Major
Carrington's request"
Prosecutor Pugh, in answer to this, said:
II have no objection to this, but | wish
TO warn all concerned that the taking of
personal bonds constitutes a conviction
and is 4 commitmen, of the court upon the
legality Of the ordinance in question"
"Oh, if that is the case" quickly in
tcrrupted Lawyer Darlington, II will
ask that the court release the boys on the
collateral which they have already de-
Iosited, and that the case be called again
next Saturday, 10y which time shall have
perpared an argument as TO the legality
of the ordnance
Il would prefer" said Judge kimball
ITO have this case tried in the upper court
as il could easily be done on habeas corpus
proceedings, but if both the government
and the defense are agreed upon il, VIII
try it here next Saturday.
At this the boys, evidently still all at sea
with regard To the nature OF the proceed
ings, walked gingerly olt of the court. fol
lowed by the members of the Secular
League, who gathered around as If TO pro
tect them.
