COURT CLERK RAILS GAMBLERS.
Obl:ginE "Sam." Who's known at the Ten
deriOin % . Friend In Need.

The police cour tclerk who Is known to the
police Of the West Thirteth street station
as Sam" is remarkably energetic chap.
Sam is always willing to aid gambler in
distress and will work far into the night
without demanding extra pay from the city.
He will spend even his own money in cab
hire to hunt up City Magistrate.
The most remarkable thing about him is
his wonderful ability to be where he is most
wanted. He is Johnny on the spot when
ever there is gambling raid in the Ten
derloin. Wednesday night for instance,
Capt. Burfeind and Detective O'Brien
raided gambling house in West Thirty
sixth street that Frank Feldman is said to
run.
The place had been open a week only
The police broke open the inner door and
nabbed seven men. The layout was con-
fiscated. but five of the seven prisoners were
permitted to go. The two who were held
were charged with keeping and maintaining
a gampiiHg house. They were discharged
in court yesterday morning because the
police had no evidence against them.
Ten minutes after the two prisoners
we're locked up in the Tenderloin station
Sam hurried In. Sergt Place was doing
desk duty Place did not know the cour
clerk.
Say sergeant, give me a couple Of bail
bonds will your" said Sam in his breezy
way
"'Why should ! give you a couple of
bonds3' asked Place.
-Oh, that's all right" answered the man.
.I'm police court clerk and want to make
out the bonds for a Magistrate who will
take bail for them two fellows arrested in
Thirty-sixth street
well, you can have the bonds If you are a
police court clerk" said Place, "but will
not let those men free without an order Of
release from the Magistrate who signs the
bonds.
That's all right" said Sam. "Tll have a
release.
The clerk hurried away with the bail
| bonds. That was about $50 o'clock. At
| IL 80 o'clock a cab stopped in front OF the
| police station. Out OF 1t jumped the police
court clerk and q professional bondsman.
Sam showed the two bonds over the ser
| peant's desk with an order Of release for
| the two prisoners signed by Magistrate
Mayo After the professional bondsman
swore to his signature the two suspected
| gamblers were released.
The two prisoners ought to think good
| deal Of this clerk. Magistrate Mayo lives
| At $40 West lO4th street. and the clerk had

Father Had Him Jailed a. Incorrigibic

He Was Sent 10 Elmira and to Sing
sing-Mr. willard Has Him Now.
After spending nine years in the House OF
Refuge, the Elmira Reformatory and Sing
Sing Prison. apparently for mere violations
Of rules, twenty-year-old James Daley
spent yesterday learning things that city
boys half his age know already.
Daley came here from prison, night before
last. to the Boys Refuge, which David Will
lard, an officer Of the Special Sessions Court,
runs at 100 Chrystie street. A friend OF
Willard at Sing Sing wrote down to
him two weeks ago about the lads strange
story. Willard wrote back offering to give
him start and now has on his hands the
training Of the youth.
According to his own account. Daley, up
to 1894, lived with his family near l23d
street and Third avenue. His father sent
him to school and, because he often played
truant. arranged to have him sent to tho
House Of Refuge a. inoorrigible. In his two
years there the boys family visited him
only twice.
One night he joined in bread throwing
fight in the dining room. For this he was
transferred to the Elmira Rsformatory and
never heard from his family after that.
After three years there he got into q
quarrel with one Of the guards. He WA
caught chewing some tobacco that had
been struggled in. Instead Of reporting
him the guard tried TO make him stop by
choking him. The lad retaliated with q
blow in the face and soon after was trans
ferred to Sing Sing on three and half
year sentence. He got out the day before
yesterday. his term having been COM
muted to two years and nine months for
good behavior.
Although he has only partly verified
Daley's story, Officer willard ia convinced
that it is true and means to stick by the boy
until he has found his feet. The boy picked
up the rldiments OF carpentering at the
reformatory and had chance to practice
them at the penitentiary. He is. however,
80 timid that he does not dare walk about
the streets alone.
Mr.. Willard had some business at the
with instructions to walk through the
streets and learn his way about. Coming
out an hour later he found that Daley had
been afraid to bulge. The lad also ex-
hibited fear at entering electric cars and
elevators. He says he has read of these
things, but has never been able to form
correct idea Of them.
Mr.. Willard at present is afraid that the
lads family may claim him.
They'd celebrate his return by mixed
ale party and trip to the Bowery. he said

Obsolete Means Of Transportation.


Obsolete Means Of Transportation.
The very general proposition has been
advanced that canals are obsolete as a
means Of transportation; that they once
had their day and were useful then; but
this was in the '5O,. The canals have
been likened to the wooden plough, the
grain cradle and the plank road, and very
astute authority says of the canals:
LET us honor their memory for the good
they have done, but let us use to-day the
things Of the present century. Canals are
still useful in China, where we find the
greatest canal in the world busy in trans
porting the tribute rice to Pekin, and in
parts of Europe where the slowly moving
peasants are never in a hurry, but we do
not need the consort Of such conditions

the State of New York have declared the
proposition to expend SOL 900, 900 for the
Erie canal, to be voted for on election day.
