tence in Police Court.
Charlie Miller. colored, was sentenced TO
pay fine of $50 or spend thirty days on
the gang by Recorder Hartridge yester-
day. Miller has been in the employ of
DR.. Stone for some time and ordinarily his
conduct haslbeen all that could be asked.
His evil star was in the ascendant. how
ever, and as a result he must pay the pen
atty of the too free use of his tongue.
Miller was making himself too free in
the yard of house on Oglethorpe avenue
when he was ordered away by one of the
gentlemen of the house. He not only re-
fused to go, but used some very vile and
abusive Language not only to the gentle
man, but to the ladies of the house as
well. A policeman was called and he was
taken to the barracks, where a charge of
trespass was preferred against him. As
Miller has not the money with which to
pay his fine he is likely to spend thirty
days on the gang repenting the rash use of
his tongue.

Proposition to Facilitate the Return Of
tho Fifty-first lows. 4
WASHINGTON, Sept. IA telegram
has been sent to Gen. Otis at Manila,
which probably will result in the
Fifty-first Iowa regiment being mus
tered out on the way home, il they
desire to take advantage of the oppor-
tunity. Gen. Otis was instructed, if
practica BILE, to place regular army
officer, who has had mastering expe-
rience, on the transport with the re-
turning volunteers, and during the
voyage to cause the records of the
regiment to be prepared in accord
ance with general orders for that pur-
pose heretofore issued. If Gen. Otis
carries out this order it will result in
the Iowa boys saving about three
weeks time in reaching their homes.
They will hardly have to stay any
time in San Francisco. An old official
of the war department., however, VEN
lures the suggestion that there will
be such a rumpus among officers and
men that it will be impossible to carry
out this order. The other regiments
have had their three weeks rest in
San Francisco with pay, and he be-
lieves the Iowa boys will want the
same privilege.

Bar Association Preparing = BIZ for
Presentation to the Legislature +
Dies MONIES, Sept. s.-The State
Bar Association is preparing bill to
come before the next legislature to
to provide state penal institution
which shall be in nature midway be-
tween the pcnitcntiary and the re-
form school. 1t is thought there are
a good many boys who are not bad
enough for the former, and yet toe
bad for the latter, and it is to cover
this class the institution is desired.
Speaking of the matter Judge Woolson
said:
1.-THE influence of older and more
vicious criminals is very bad for the
Younger inmates who are in many
cases confined with them. The pro-
position in having new institution
is to provide for boys of middle age
and older criminals who have not be-
come hardened, and the young ones
who are very wrong. The question
as to where the different classes OF
criminals should be sent has Away
been a very serious one with me. At
present l prefer the county Jail to the
penitentiary for some of the cases"
