Each Fined $50.

There was trouble at 1909 7th street
northwest last evening, and as a result
Charles Robinson and Sylvester Gray both
colored, were each fined $40, with sixty
days as the alternative, by Judge Mills this
morning. The charges against the men
were for committing an assault on Louis
Bennett, clothing merchant at the place
mentioned.
In the testimony 1T developed that Ben
nett was Indebted to the two men for
carriages which he had hired some time
ago for a wedding. Robinson and Gray
called on Bennett last night, they stated,
to collect the money still due them. They
declared that Bennett ordered them from
his premises, and attempted to strike them
with chair, when fight ensued. and a
number of Benefits friends responded to
his slogan and cleaned the colored men
out.
In the melee a. window glass in the store
building was broken, and Bennett claimed
that Gray cut him with knife besides
pounding him up to some extent.
About a half a dozen witnesses came
down to the court with Bennett, and did
not altogether agree in the stories told of
the disturbance.

GERS of their respective divisions, but upon
reflection it was found that 1t would con-
sumo too much time and would work in
jury to the men who had been faithful to
their duty and had reported with prompt
ness.
Under the act Of May IL, 1898, the naval
militia of the District of Columbia Is placed
under the same code of discipline and
routine of duty as the regular navy, and
section 40 of the act of March l. 1882 ex-
pncltly says. any duty that is required, or
dered, or otherwise, is deemed military
duty, and while on such duty every officer
and enlisted man Is subject to the lawful
orders Of his superior officer, and for any
orense in addition to other punishments
may be arrested and kept under guard for a
time not extending beyond the term Of
service for which he s under orders
1T Is not without the range of posi-
.bilities that the absentees who neglected
to report with promptness last Saturday
may, within the next few days, be taken
into custody and kept under restraint for
a period, although l don't as yet know
what steps will be taken until after the
investigation ordered has been completed.
In any event there will be no let up until
the whole matter has been thoroughly
sifted. 49,
In each case of enlisted men who are
government employees a. record of the

Personal Tax Law Interferes.

Raisers Of farm produce in the garden
ing section in this locality have found out
that considerable business which they have
heretofore transacted In the disposal to
householders Of small quantities Of produce
has been interfered with under the provis-
ions of the personal tax law. The raisers
who sell their wares at the markets or by
the wagon load or wholesale lots are ex-
empt from paying the annual tax Of $12.
but when disposal Of produce Is made in
small lots the growers are amenable to the
law. It has been the custom of housekeep-
ers to buy directly from the gardeners
small quantities of fruit and produce DUR
ing the summer season, the goods to be de-
livered by the raisers at the different
houses. but this Is no longer permissible
under the law named. The police have
been busy notifying persons to this effect

BUT FIFTY REPORTED
MEMBERS OF NAVAL BATTALION
TO BE DISCIPLINED.
Disobedience Of Orders the Charge
Jackies Failed to Go on
Last Cruise.

AS a sequel to the recent cruise of the
District of Columbia Naval Battalion it
is understood more than half of the jackies
Will find themselves in decidedly embar-
RAISING predicament. Out of complement
of about 130 men it was stated to Star
reporter this morning that only about fifty
reported for duty at the time of the sailing
OF the Fern last Saturday evening, and but
few of the absentees had been previously
excused.
That the officers Of the battalion view the
absence from duty Of the many men as
anything but as a most fragrant disobe-
dience Of orders Is evinced by the stand
taken by Lieutenant Commander 8. G.
Hopkins, commanding the naval militia In
an interview given this morning to a rep
resentative of The Star, Commander Hop
kins said:
II have directed the commanding officers
or the first and second divisions to make a
strict investigation to the cause Of the
absence Of each enlisted man who did not
report for duty at o'clock last Saturday
evening, as directed by orders from the
National Guard headquarters, and in each
case where no good excuse to the contrary
Is shown shall cause charges to be pre-
ferred against the men who so absented
themselves and will have them brought
before summary court-martial, which will
be convened for that purpose within the
next few days.
1T appears to me that a great many of
the men do not realize the seriousness of
the obligation which they took upon them
selves when they enlisted. nor do they real
fze the equally serious consequence which
may follow In the event Of disobedience of
lawful order. In any event propose to
push this meter to the last extremity and
men who are either careless or wilifuIly
| disobedient in the matter Of attendance
| when under orders Will be made examples

THE OTHER FELLOW.

The manager of the Monumental
Theatre. formerly Metropolitan Hall has
surely booked a winning attraction in
THE Other Fellow Company, judging
from reports from other cities where the
comedy has been played. Mr.. Harry
West and his company of comedians keep
the audience in a laugh from start to
finish, and have their artistic appetite
satisfied to the utmost. The company is
unusually strong, containing as it does
many we'll known names of artists who
have travelled the world over and made
stellar names for themselves. NO eX-
pense has been spared in the selection
of high salaried people and of elegant
and expensive costumes. However the
management desires it distinctly under
stood that they do not make and sustain
reputation on good clothes, but on the
intrinsic merit of the entertainment,
laughter plays the greater part, but is
interrupted only by delightful music, in
terpreted by genuine singers-not the
usual kind found in the majority run of
musical comedy companies.
Tickets are now on sale at Kings drug
store for the performance Wednesday

FOOTBALL AT THE a. & n
All the Old Men Back Except Two In Prime
Physical Condition

If any one who admires manhood and
who is acquainted with the great Ameri-
can college game, foot ball, were to
visit the A. and M. College about four
o'clock in the afternoon, they would be
impressed and no doubt amazed at the
determined and muscular appearance of
the swarthy men who appear in their
foot ball garb on the athletic field.
The men are at present in the best
physical condition they have ever been
this early in the season. This is possi-
bly, due to the fact that there are so
many of the old players back this year
Every man who had position on the
team of 1901 is back with the exception
of two. This does not signify that the
team will play all these old men this
wear, for there are some freshmen who
have demonstrated that they have
large quantity of sand and ability. No
tally among these new men are Robert
sonson, Squires. Koon, Burkhead, Beebe.
Hadley, Graydon, Kennedy, Venerable
O'Berry and Brockwell, all of whom
stand a good chance for the varsity
Now the old men who are back and
doing their usual good work are as fol-
lows: Asbury, the "cute" and plucky
quarter back is still holding his position
and directing the team with the same
cool headedness and excellent ability as
of old. Then comes a man whose work
on the ball field can not be praised too
highly one who is recognized as the peer
of any man south of Washington as a
line bucker, end skirter, and hard tackler.
From this description any one who has
ever seen him play will recognize the
redoubtable c. D. WEIGH, who will be
at his position of right half-back this
year. Our half-back Darden, is also
back with us and is doing his usual
fast work behind the line.
Neil and Carpenter, our same "old
guards of last year, are both back ana
are in a fine physical condition They
both weigh about one hundred and
eighty pounds apiece and play their po-
sitions so well that the line is we'll nigh
impregnable at that point. Joe Gulley
is putting up fast game on end and
when man makes gain around Joe's
end he has to lay Joe out first. Shan
nonhouse is also putting up good game
on end, and with these two fast and
plucky ends, the A. and NJ team need
| fear no harm from that quarter.
Last, but not least. comes our big
and sturdy captain. o. Max Gardner.
AS a tackle he has no superior, and with
his two hundred and twenty pounds of
hard solid muscle, he can handle any
man in the South He is our captain
whom we are proud Of. He is the man
to inspire the other men by his own
valiant playing. He is the man to lead
the A and M foot ball team of '02 to
| the championship of the South
With such captain as this, and with
such men to pick from as the above, and
with such a coach as Mr.. Arthur DeVlin,
whose reputation as a coach and player
is world wide, there is no reason why
the A. and Nj. can not sweep the deck
clean this year.
