Boyle is a native of Washington, the
day of his birth being June %. 1850.

geant Byrne bounded them increasingly
so that the establishment of done
joints and gambling rooms became too
expensive for the fraternity. They gave

strict sense of the word. any place in
washington where the deviltry of the
Orient found a firm foothoId.
Sergeant Byrne was promoted IN the
position of lieutenant July 3. 1901. and
was assigned to the command of the
Second precinct. The Second precinct
last year was awarded the flag for hav-
ing the best kept quarters. and the hest

men are making every effort to keen the
trophy this year when the examinations
come off,

tuition have been broken up. and the
precinct is now fairly clear of disorder
The principal crime dealt with by Lieu
tenant Byrne in recent months was the

In the night. clean out the chicken house
entirely and never leave a clue by which
he could be caught. Near the scene of
theft the negro would conceal an old
boiler on the afternoon of the night he
intended 10 work He would then camp
in the vicinity, eat his lunch. and about
midnight make the intended raid on the
chickens. Mathews often found his fires
and his sleeping places. but never the
man.
After reaching the chicken house, the
thief would carefully select the hens and
chickens. always wringing their heads
off aud leaving them behind. He would
then take the chickens TO the woods
heat water in his old boiler and dress
the fowl before starting for the city
The fire was always so deity concealed
that Mathews could never see il burning
though he watched for It several times.
Finally Mathews noticed that the
thief never cut off the feet OF the chick
ems. With this fact in view. he sent out
a call to the precincts TO look out for
negro selling dressed chickens with the
feet on. a practice almost never followed
by the farmers al the markets Within a
day or two after the call was sent out
the police of the Fourth precinct saw a
negro pushing a baby carriage with a
load of chickens in it with the claws
still on them They caught him and
took him TO the station

and placed in command OF the Sixth
precinct.
Lieutenant Moore was sergeant in the
First precinct at the time OF the raids
on policy players and the breaking up
Of the gambling dens. He led In person
most of the raids. and his pursuit of the
policy people was unrelentiEg until the
practice was broken up.
Sergeant Moore had a unique expert
enee several years ago, which, for a
time. threatened TO mar his record as a
successful policeman One fine morning
an energetic steer broke through the
bars at the "Drover's Rest" and began
an excursion about the city on his own
account He went believing along
Twelfth Street out toward the Avenue.
One OF the keepers of the Rest" and
several street urchins gave chase. and
the steer. possibly q little frightened,
ran into the Raleigh Hotel barroom.
Those taking their morning drains came
quickly to the conclusion they had got
EN-" and ran into a safer part OF the
house. The steer stirred things up In
the barroom and passed on into the
dining-room. 1t was here that the
ancient scene OF the bull in the china
shop" was enacted.
The steer now pursued by Sergeant
Moore overturned tables. broke dishes
demoralized the walters. and spoiled the
breakfasts of several guests. He dashed
out of the front door. with Sergeant
Moore in hot pusuit The steer ran
across the Avenue, bolted into a saloon
on the south side. scared everybody out
CT their wits, and was headed of in tine
dining-room by the sergeant. The latter
had nothing but his bare hands to deal
with the Infatuated bovine. and when
he was once more out of doors brooks

force. His appointment was made octo-
Der 1, 1871, and he was assigned to the
Sixth precinct. Later Private Byrne was
transferred to the First precinct, and
was placed on the White House beat, in
the Administration of President Hayes.
He did not take kindly to the pic
turesque duty of standing like a statue
and wearing white gloves. and at his
own request was placed back on street
work after few months. He was. how
ever. assigned TO the White House
second time in the first Administration
OF President Cleveland.
Private Byrne was made sergeant In
1888, and saw three years OF service in
the First and Sixth precincts in that ca
pacity. In this period ne was actively
engaged in suppressing policy. In the

time, with his men, he raided as many

and arrested seven or eight men. In
many instances cases we're made
against those arrested. and they were
fined or sent to Jail. Illicit liquor SELL
ing also received attention, and Ser
geant Byrne was instrumental in break
ing up nearly all the speakeasies in the
Sixth precinct. Chinese gambling houses
were frequently raided. sometimes as
many as three on a Sunday. II was

the Sixth precinct at the time that

A Rapid Promotion.
In February. 1874. he was appointed on
the Metropolitan police force and placed
on duty as private in the First pre-
cinct. He was made a sergeant for mer-
itorious conduct in 1889 and raised to a
lieutenancy June 10. 1892 In 1869 Lieu

In his tastes. He is quite a sportsman
and noted shot, scarcely a year going
by without his adding some trophy to his
long list.
The Fourth Precinct.
The southern portion of Washington
west OF South Capitol Street. is known
as the Fourth precinct. The steamboat
wharves, Smithsonian Institution. Medt-
cal Museum. Fish Commission. and the
baltimore and Potomac Railroad yards
are embraced in its limits. Much i'm
portant commercial business is under tho
supervision OF the police of the Fourth
precinct and an extensive and trouble

of it. Around the Smithsonian grounds
are some very handsome residences.

Lieutenant Mathews was horn .,

He passed his early life in the country
ana enlisted in the Fifth Artillery in
1876. He was assigned to coast duty in
the ten years of his life as a soldier in
Florida, Georgia and New York He was
discharged from the army In 1885 and IN
July 10. the same year. he became a
Washington policeman. being assigned
to the Sixth precinct, under Lieutenant
Kelly. After some three years service
on foot, he became a mounted noIica-
man. and was assigned first TO the Firth
precinct and then to the Eighth, where
ne patrolled at one time and another the
whole north side of the District between
Mount Pleasant and the Soldiers Home
Private Mathews was made a sergeant in
1898 ana remained in the Eighth pre-
cinct. His promotion to acting lieuten-
ant came in 1901. and after few months
service he was made full lieutenant and
placed In command of the Fourth ore

The Fourth precinct is perhaps the
toughest In Washington. There is always
more or less disorder In the alleys
teeming with negroes, Italians. and other
classes who crowd the cheap tens
ments and take naturally to crime. The
recent riot In Willow Tree Alley was a
specimen OF what may take place there
any time. Robbery is frequent, and the
police are ever on the alert in that pre-
cinct. Under Lieutenant Mathews as
good order as is possible under the con-
ditions prevails.
Most Populous of All.
The Fifth precinct. the most populous
in the city. is in charge of Lieut.. F. F.
McCathran. II extends west TO South
