WANTED TO SCARE A MAN.
Trying to Do 1t With a Pistol Cost
Washington Fifty Dollars.

David Washington. colored. found out
yesterday that carrying a pistol to scare
a man is expensive business. In default
of fine of $50 imposed on him in the
Police Court on a charge of carrying a
concealed weapon, he will serve six
months in the workhouse.
Washington's reason for having the gun
was. according to his statement to Judge
Scott. that just before he started to ac-
company young colored woman home
from visit to friends, the other night.
he was told that another admirer of the
girl. who was jealous. was waiting on a
corner near at hand to give him a beat
ing, and that he borrowed the weapon and
went forth to scare him. The alleged jeal-
Gus man got even by having Washington
arrested.
John Perry, colored. charged with car
rying a concealed pistol. with intent
to unlawfully use it. in default of fine
OF $3.50, was sentenced to serve eleven
months in Jail.

UN WlTTINGLY VIOLATED
THE PLUMBING LAWS
Martin Mcnamara Laid Water
Pipe Without a Permit.
Case Being Investigated in the Police
Recommendation of the
Plumbing Inspector.

Mr.. Martin Mcnamara, of COS A Street
southeast, recently made application to
the District Commissioners that an ex-
ception be made to the plumbing regu-
lations relative to work done by him at
the Rupert Home for the Aged. Mr..
Mcnamara based his application upon his
lack of knowledge of the regulations and
his desire to have tie work cost the in
stitution as little as possible.
1t appears that the regulations were
violated in that a three-inoh water con-
nection several hundred feet in length
and about 1000 feet of six-inch terra cot
ia pipe were laid by him contrary to the
regulations. No permit was issued for
the work. and it was not inspected. The
regulations specify that such work shall
be done by a registered plumber.
Mr.. o. L. ingalls,, the Inspector of
Plumbing, in a report upon the subject,
states that the attention of his Office was
first called to the matter by MIR. Nc
Namara, who requested certificate of
approval of the plumbing work performed
by him as stated. Continuing, Mr.. ingalls,
says:
Mr.. ingalls, Recommendation.
Under the circumstances 1 have
thought 1t best to procure a warrant for
Mr.. Mcnamara for doing plumbing work
in the District without license, and the
case is now pending in the Police Court.
AS Mr.. Mcnamara appears to have been
misled when he entered into a contract
to do this work. and as he has been given
permission to lay water pipe in at least
one other locality in the District. would
respectfully recommend that he be in
formed that it will be necessary for him
to procure the services Of a registered
plumber for the purpose Of exposing such
parts of the plumbing work as this office
may deem necessary for the purpose OF
making proper inspection and also for the
purpose of making whatever changes are
found necessary in the plumbing work. in
order that the same may fully comply
with the plumbing regulations"

Glass Blackboards in Schools.

Mr.. Snowden Ashford. the Inspector of
Buildings. has forwarded to the Engineer
Commissioner three proposals for con-
structing the glass blackboards in the
manual training schools. which he does
not consider advantageous for the Dis
trict, on the ground that there does not
appear to be fair amount of compe-
tition. The proposals called for supply
ing glass and silicate boards for the two
buildings complete, with other necessary
work to properly install them. Mr.. Ash
ford says the bids are informal, and he
recommends that they be released and
new bids taken for supplying the materi-
ais only. the work OF installation to be
done by his Office.
