1t Saved w. f. Maher From Being
LuEGed to the Barracks.

The police had rather a peculiar case
yesterday. and one that furnished cons.d-
cradle amusement. During the morning
w f. Maher, white, became engaged in
a Tenderloin row and beat one of the
inmates of Thelma Owens house, on
Oglethorpe avenue. To forestall an ar
rest, he went to the barracks and sur
rendered himself, but was released on
bond. Later in che day Maher was spied
by an officer who had just heard of the
row and who proceeded to arrest him
and take him TO the barracks, although
the man protested against the proceeding
stating that he had already given bond
for bis appearance. When he reached
the barracks, of course he was liberated
and TO avoid further mischanCes of the
same sort the sergeant in charge gave
him a signed memorandum stating the
facts of the case, and which was to be
used should he be approached again by
any member of che force This was a
happy thought on the part Of the ser
geant and came in quite handy to Maher,
who was compelled 10 show his passport
number of times during the day to
avoid being run in.
