State Treasurer Grimes Acted as
Guard of the Treasury.

morning on time but his eyes We're red
and he looked very much like a man
who had been out all night.
The facts were that Mr.. Grimes had
been out all night but it was in the dis
charge of duties connected with his
office. The night guard of the states

never do to permit the millions to pass
a night without some one being in the
office to listen for burglars drills and
saws
Instead of asking some of the office
force to perform this duty Mr.. Grimes
sat up all night himself He kept a
faithful vigil and then went home with
out having reported his work to the
others in the office.

ing and talking, taking good care that
the interests of the state were pro-
tected.

TROUBLES ORA FAMILY
Which Judge Kelly Is Anxious to
Have Settled AmicabIy.

Have Settled AmicabIy.
A long scratch across the case of the
family piano appeared to have been the
primary source of considerable disruption
in the McDonough family. according to
the stories told yesterday to Judge Kelly,
in the hearing on the writ Of habeas
corpus issued in the case of John NC
Donough VS.. Bartholomew O'MalleyAet al.
McDonough sought to recover possession
of one baby and one small boy whom, he
alleged, were unlawfully kept from him
by his wife and father-inzlaw. The petit
toner was represented by Judge Willis,
and the respondents by F. N. Dickson.
1t appears that McDonough apd his wife
lived with his, mother and three SISTERS
and there was more or less friction in
regard to the bringing up of the children.
Finally, one day, when Mrs McDonough
was away from home, the small boy is al
legged to have scratched the plano, and
received summary punishment therefor
at the Slapper Of one of his aunt'S. Upon
his mothers return the youngster ex-
hibited marks, and Mrs McDonough be-
came so much angered that she gathered
up her things and went home to her
mother. Later she returned with her
father, and captured the children, who
are at present being cared for at the
home of the 'O.Malleys. In court the sis
ter denied ever haying chastised the child.
Both parties in the case appeared we'll
dressed and refined, and the court siezed
the opportunity to tell them mildly that
he thought there was a mutual under
standing. McDoneugh and his wife were
instructed to return tomorrow to the
judges chambers without either relatives
or lawyers accompanying theme and talk
the matter over. ;...--. - s~elg.l- 3

MUST TAKE OFF THEIR HATS.
If Male Theater Patron" Refus

If Male Theater Patrons Refuse
They Can BE Elected.
According to decision rendered by
Judge Orr yesterday, the manager of
theater has the right to require male
patrons to remove their hats and In the
event of failure or refusal to do so. may
eject the OFFENDING person from the the
alter. But. nevertheless, d. Ray4Bcher,
who was arrested at the Grand opera
house on the charge of disorderly con-
duct, as the result of his refusal to re-
move his hat was discharged. The court
neld that the fact of Ravitscher refusing
to remove his hat did not constitute dis
orderly conduct-under the ordinances
under which the arrest was made.
1.-THE management of the theater," said
Judge Orr, beyond question has the right
to make such rules as will conduce to
the comfort of patrons. The requirement
that hats must be removed during. the
performance is a reasonable and proper
rule. If a patron refuses to take off his
hat he may be elected from the building,
but in the mere act of keeping on the hat
there is nothing to constitute disorderly
conduct"

MALFoRMED FISHES.
A Striped Bass with Two Sigh

Striped Bass With Two Slight
Bends In It's Body.
Malformatfons OF one sort and another
are no more unusual among fishes than
they are among men. Among the striped
bass In the bass pool at the aquarium
there Is one that has two wavy bends in
the after part Of it's body. They are
slight and woud not be observed looking
at the first broadside on. but they can be
seen looking down upon 1t from above.
These bends, or crooks, in the fish's body
are vertical. They look as though they
might have been made by pressure on the
sides of the body.
The first Of these bends Is in the feshy
tall part of the fish connecting the tail
fin with the body proper. This one bend
Is the more plainly perceptible because IT
is In the thinnest part Of the fish's body;
looking down upon it. the first impression
taken from It Is that the fish has crook
ed tail. A little further back, where the
body is thicker and the wave therefore
less plainly perceptible, is the second
