trusted He led a quiet and peace

His record as soldier in the Con-
federate army was manly, and that OF
courage, as his comrades testify. He
was sergeant in Company b of the
18th regiment, and surrendered his
company at Appomattox on that
memorable day of April 8, 1860.

HEAVY SENTENCE IMPOSED.
Outcome Of Street Fight, Which Oc-
Cured Last Evening.

A street fight between two colored men,
during which two policemen and a citizen
were roughly handled, caused considerable
excitement at the corner of Sd and H
streets northwest, about $50 o'clock last
night. The trouble originated from a fight
between Theodore Buchanan, and Wilfred
Lee, colored. 1t was a give-and- take,
knock down affair, and both participants
were bleeding freely when Policemen Nor
ris and Long appeared.
The trouble was rehearsed in the United
States branch of the Police Court today
when Buchanan was arraigned on separate
charges of assaulting each of two police
officers. He was also charged jointly with
Lee in making an assault on Attorney
Kicks and engaging in an ARRAY in a public
place. After hearing the statements of
all parties concerned. the court fined Blu
chanan 500 in each case for assaultine the
two policemen with an aggregate sentence
of 1874 days In jail in default of payment
In the remaining two cases against him
Judge Kimball deferred sentence until the
expiration of the 3e4 days section of the
code preventing an accumulate tive sentence
of more than one year.
Lee was adjudged to be guilty of engag-
ing in an ARRAY and was sentenced to pay
a fine of $40 with the privilege of spending
two months in jail as the alternative. He
asked for a jury trial on the charge of
participating in the assault on Attorney
Kicks and hearing of the case was post
roned until later date in order that his
request may be granted.
