STRUCK HIS BLIND WIFE.
James Howard Fined $50 and In
prisoned Six Months.

Spectators in the United States branch of
the Police Court were deeply interested to-
day in the hearing given James Howard,
colored, who was in the dock on charge
of assaulting his wife, Sarah. The woman
is totally blind. She recited to Judge Scott
how Howard struck her on the head with
a goblet. She said he was seated at a
table drinking beer and that in passing him
she accidentally knocked the goblet from
his hand to the floor.
II can't see. and, of course, I don't know
exactly how it happened" the woman said.
but something struck me on the fore
head" she explained, exhibiting an ugly
wound to the court. They tell me, though,
that Jim picked up the glass and threw it
at me-"
what do you mean by such outrageous
conduct?" Prosecutor Given demanded of
Howard, ito SO far forget yourself as to
hit blind person, and especially your wife,
whom you promised to protect
I'm guilty of 1t, but it wouldn't have
happened only I was mad" the man re-
piled in a matter of-fact sort Of way.
rs that all you want to say?" Mr.. Given
inquired.
Yes, SIR"
"a fine Of $50, with Imprisonment In Jail
for six months" was the decision of the
court.
Upon hearing the sentence Mrs. Howard
tainted and was taken from the court room
by friends.

The improvements now consist of old
buildings. which are to be removed, leaving
building space that has frontage of II

cut avenue to an alley, where the frontage
is not quite so wide as that on K street.
The new structure is to be two stories in

CHARGE OF BURGLARY
"BIa BILL" MASON TO BE
BROUGHT HERE FOR TRIAL
Has Completed Term in Eastern Peni-
Tertiary in Pennsylvania-His
Alleged Crimes.

William Mason. alias Rodgers, who is IA
miliarly known to the police departments
throughout the United States as big
Bill Mason. is to be brought here from
PHILADELPHIA to answer charges of bur-
glary. He was released from the eastern
penitentiary at Philadelphia this morning.
at 1880 o'clock. after having served sem
tence of six years for burglary. About the
time he was tried and convicted Of bur-
glary he was also tried for murder. 1t was
charged that he murdered a man named
Wilson. who kept book store in base
ment in Philadelphia. The elderly man
was beaten to death and his place robbed.
Mason was indicted for the crime, but the
proof against him was not sufficient to con-
Wet. The murder was an atrocious one and
attracted the attention of the police depart
ments In all sections of the country.
Mason was known as desperate burglar.
He was arrested in Brooklyn. N. Y. in July,
1898. and turned over to the Philadelphia
authorities. AT that time Detective Weldon
went to Brooklyn and saw the prisoner.
Mason had heard Of Weldon and while be-
hind the bars he informed the Washington
detective that he would like to get a chance
at him. He was greatly incensed because
Knowing he had been suspected of COM
hitting burglaries in this city he knew full
well he would have to come here when he
had satisfied the Philadelphia authorities
for what he had done there
Stolen Property Located.
1t was while the detective was in Brook
lyn that he obtained evidence to connect
Mason with the burglaries committed in
this city. Property taken from houses here
was recovered there. 1t is alleged that
Mason operated here for about six months
during the early part of 1898. and partici-
pated in six or more burglaries. The police
were greatly annoyed by series of rob-
berries committed then, and despite the
extra precautions taken the robbers es-
capped. Mason Is alleged to have robbed
the houses of Capt. E. s. Randall and w.
H. Butler in South Washington. He is
also alleged to have robbed the houses of
Gen. John M. Wilson, Mr.. H. o. Towles and
others in the northwest section. The prop
erty stolen from the houses consisted of
jewelry and cash to the amount of several
thousand dollars.
Although five years have elapsed since
these robberies were committed, Mason has
not been indicted 1t Is stated, and this
morning a Police Court warrant, charging
him with burglary, was sworn out by De-
Philadelphia. The warrant alleges that he
carried off about 500 worth of jewelry
from the house Of Capt Randall. This
house was entered and robbed the ed Of
May in the year stated.
Mason is native Of Pennsylvania and is
about fiftyfour years old. He has the
reputation Of being safe blower and all
round burglar. 1t is thought that he will
resist extraditfon and that some trouble
will be experienced by the police before
he Is turned over to them.
