John King, an elderly man, who served a
number of years in the navy, was arrested
in the Capitol yesterday for being drunk
and for begging. He asked Capitol Police

sent him to the police station. The old
man had in his pocket letter from Ad
miral Schley, recommending him, an
old shipmate, for position in the navy
yard.
Il was drunk" admitted King, "and l
asked for something tu eat because l was
a little hungry. butit was the first time l
had ever done snCh rthing. Here's my
character in a letter from Admiral Schley."
The letter was read, and Judge Scott said
he had great respect for the writer of it.
You would no doubt go in n battle and
come out all right the judge remarked,
but ] don't know how you will come out
if turn you loose where there are 50 many
drinking places.
King said he expected to work in the
navy yard in the near future, and the court
released him, wishing him success and eX
pressing the hope that he would keep sober.
